I hate to one star a business but I have to say this was the worst cold brew I have ever had

Gold Star Beer Counter nails what most places miss. The music is local and right — unexpectedly amazing — like someone actually thought about it instead of hitting play on some corporate streaming service. You can feel it’s picked by the same personalities you see at the bar, not a marketing team in another time zone. The vibe is warm, unforced, and human. No branding exercise, no playlist ‘strategy,’ just a room that knows exactly who it is and lets you enjoy it

I'm very picky about beer and I love this place. They have a rotating list of taps, the friendly staff will let you taste a draft before you buy. The printed beer list has descriptions. I love that they have foreign as well as domestic beers, especially Belgian and German beers. The list is mostly American Craft but there are always 2 or more imports. They take chances too with smoked beers and barrel aged. While other places may serve only IPAs and sours, you can get those at Gold Star but also a Fantome! The outdoor beer window that sells 32 and 64 oz growlers is great too, you can.pick up a growler while walking your dog.
There are a couple of sandwiches on the menu, both delicious. They are always nice.
I have never purchased cans or bottles here either to stay or go. I would be careful about buying cans and bottles here. I see them displayed warm and that's not good for most beer. Maybe check and see if hey also have cold beer for sale. Perhaps the ones left out are only for display. That would make sense since this is an excellent beer bar.
The interior is pretty as well, it would be a good place to impress someone who likes decor. There is a lot of wood but it's still light and airy.

This was such a great bar, beautiful inside with a great selection of beers. Highly recommend even for visitors.

Great spot, best decaf IPA I've ever had while I was working. The meat and cheese are also spot on!

This is a very cool beer joint with large and interesting selection of beers. The place not your average beer bar, but rather a Starbucks that serves beer instead of coffee. This cool place to socialize and even to work. I gave 3 stars just because they serve good sandwiches, but not omg, but again it is just an option to have with an excellent beer. The place is next to the local celebrity- Radio bakery, so if not in the mood to stay in a long line, or they run of their goodies, this place is a great substitution
This place is so great. I didn't get the full vibe from their website, but it's like a super gastro-pub/winebar-ish beer bar (#beeristhenewwine?) with a spectacular selection on tap. They even have that crazy side pull Czech tap for their Pilsners. I know, opinions and a-holes and all, but maybe a hand-pumped cask ale?
