Do you have the link to the ratings of pubs on beeradvocate?<br>
<br>
As a Brit, who therefore comes from somewhere where there's at least one<br>
<br>
pub in every tiny village, I'm not certain about the "second best in the<br>
<br>
world" rating, but brick store is indeed a great place (although it's a<br>
shame that the food isn't better--their excellent pretzels<br>
notwithstanding).<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
George<br>
