Tap List 4/8/09

Okay, here’s how it’s going to work.  We will do our best to keep the list up to date and accurate but we can’t promise you 100% that it will always reflect what is absolutely coming out of the taps at the current second.  If your day is going to be ruined because a beer you think is on tap because of the blog really ran out or isn’t there please use common sense and make a phone call to the pub and speak to a human being that can verify what you want is actually pouring.  That being said, keep an eye on the blog to see when new pub batches come on and special guest draughts.
