I define Great as: Drinkable without making excuses.
I am open to just about anything.
But for one specific example: Bare-Knuckle Stout on tap.
One to stay away from: Guinness "premium" in a bottle or can. Makes shoe leather taste good. On tap is tolerable.

Good looking beer.
I am sure the any of the Beers are good. When a brewer advertises "balance" for what they brew, typically the beer is good tasting, whatever it is.
I am sure I'll like it.

That's too bad
I need to call more places.
Of the few I mamanged to get a hold of last night, the only place that had what I considered "non-standard" beer was Ponzios, ie: a diner.
Now, mind you, it's a decent diner. But it's still a diner. It's a fallback for me as far as food choices go.
I'll keep trying.

Just find a place that has non-pisswater on tap besides...
the pisswater (budweiser, miller, etc American "what passes for Beer")
A good rich beer is all I really need. Sam Adams or Bare Knuckle Stout or other good beers.
No need to be locked out of good restaurants because of my drinking habits.

Oh, Sam Adams is OK?
List a few more, then. You need to keep in mind when I was calling places I simply got a list of brews, and if I did not recognise it I then asked you. But maybe recognizable is OK,so you really do have to give me a list of good beers so when I make the calls I'll know.

Not for a pub.
Dinner, sure, but not for Serious Pubbing.
