Used to go to one of those in Little Rock back when it was part of my market. Nice array of beers IIRC.

It's still there right in the middle of the river market.

Yeah, it's good if you're a beer snob, I guess, because they have a lot of beers you've never heard of and/or tried. Sundays or Mondays are dedicated to the local brewers with happy hour all day long on their brands. Their food is pretty decnet too for bar food. Specialty/craft beer always causes my blood sugar to spike though so I rarely drink it. And, therefore, really don't have much use for this place.

They don't serve juice boxes at Flying Saucer?

Excellent location for this, assuming it is going in on the bottom floor on the side facing the stadium.

I love those family packs. The only bad part is that they don't always market those beers where I live.

Shiner loves playing around with lagers more than any other brewery that comes to mind.

I bought a 6'er of their ruby red lager at sprouts this weekend too. Super refreshing.
