"Having a lot of taps is a sure sign a restaurant is serious about beer. Having a livestreamed tap list on their website is a whole other level of serious. Library Alehouse has one of those, constantly updated so you can strategize your drinking before you even leave the house. Once you’ve arrived, head to the back patio, post up at the picnic tables, and order the Russian River beer you’re unlikely to find on any other patio in town. For food, go for the stuff you want to be eating outside, like fish and chips and pulled pork sandwiches." - brant cox, brett keating
