Very disappointed as this was just updated 3 months ago and drove all the way here to find the place completely shut down. It ruined my night and plan. How do you have something that says open until 130a but don't update to say you are closed??... unreal. Even if you ever re-open, I won't come.

This is a pay by the ounce taproom. A great place to try new beers and watch whatever sport is in season.

There are over 50 beers/ciders on draft at this place. This is why you go to try out the different beverages. Convenience of so many at one location. Draft Taproom is located in the downtown mall. Park in the Market Street Parking garage and near the 2B elevator. It is a quick elevator ride down to the ground floor and you are basically right there on the corner and a quick walk to the taproom on the corner. We just paid for our parking at the kiosk right near the elevator after dinner.We went here because we were with some friends and they love beer. Also, we noticed that the appetizers are half price at certain hours in the evening so that was the determining factor at the end.Our friends said the beer was overpriced but they did find some they liked and would drink again.The mozzarella sticks were good. The brussels sprouts were good. The teriyaki, Jamaican, and Carolina mustard wings were crispy (you have to order a minimum of 4 wings) but the chicken was a little mushy to me. I rarely eat wings. The wings looked better than the burgers. We got the tator tots and asked for beer cheese on the side (our friends did too) but the cheese came on top. The fried oreos were pretty good - not the best I have had but good. The beer cheese was just OK. Pretzel bites were just OK. Overall, the wings were worth ordering again per my fiance and we both agreed that we would order the mozzarella sticks and oreos again. Oh and the marinara sauce that came with it was decent.There were several kitchen mix-ups with our order - cheese on top instead of on the side, two orders or oreos versus the one we ordered, and two orders of brussels versus the one that we ordered. The woman at the counter was new though so maybe she was confused - we did order a bunch of food. We didn't complain about this we just ate what we wanted. We don't like to complain and seeing as how she was new it was understandable. The food took quite a while for one of our friends. They had forgotten part of her order then remembered and brought it to her. It took forever to get take out boxes too. We had to ask 3 times. The taproom wasn't even 1/3 full and the kitchen was slow and staff was slow to respond for requests. They did clear off our tables in a decent amount of time. The guy working there (maybe the manager) did do a great job of explaining how the taproom worked with the taps, food, etc. They were having a trivia night at 7pm (Tuesday) but we had other plans after dinner so we left).Overall - we wouldn't go back, drinks were overpriced, kitchen/service was slow, and atmosphere was just OK.

Super cool! Help yourself to what you want. Its such a simple, elegant concept. Food is good too!

Have your Uber app ready, no driving after your visit here. Fun place. They help you along as it's a little confusing at first. Lots of conversation and variety. Price pay is worth the value.

This is a really cool place - ever want to try just a little bit of a beer instead of going all-in on an entire pint? Well that seems to be the hope this store on the downtown mall was made to fill. The way it works is that when you enter you're given an electronic card that you can then tag on the handle of the several dozen beers they have available and get/charge for however much or little you take. This allows you to try just a little bit - even just an ounce - of a beer you may find interesting. Prices are slightly higher than your average beer-at-bulk level but the design of the place makes it worth it. Seating is spacious but it can easily get overpacked at crowded/busy times, though I haven't seen it reach that level much. It's right on the downtown mall and very easy to access. I think it's such an innovative format! What a great design and they have a large selection of beers to make a sampling tour worthwhile again and again.

Seems like a decent idea, until the manager sits down to eat his lunch on the clock with his buddy, discussing black people in a negative way and also weapons. Not exactly what I wanted to hear while on vacation with my girlfriend. Also, skip the food. It's clear that its frozen and then just heated up. Beer/Cider average. Would rate 0 stars if possible

When you have sixty excellent curated beers and ciders priced by the ounce it's hard to go wrong. There are sampling glasses and glassware of any desired shape and size. I understand why they went cash free but I don't believe any business should be allowed to, even ones like this one where they can make a great case for it. Come here and bring your card. Get a card to get beer on.

Best customer service! We love Bridgette who always remembers us and is so helpful.
we came to relax and get some food and a couple beers. While trying to order( because she was trying to play wii bowling) we finally got the order in. As soon as that happens, everyone playing the game disperses and after a little while your food comes out by someone who was playing that game. The whole time the staff was more worried about themselves having fun then the guest that were in the door willing to spend money

Expensive but worth it if you're looking to try new beers! Good spot to watch sports.
Darren Murray
Cool place to watch the game and the staff was friendly and helpful. Buy beer and wine by the once with an extensive selection. Great idea
Justin Jennings
This place was awesome loved the beer selection and the pour it yourself style. Could do without all the sports related items.

Interesting concept . The place is fun . You can choose /taste all 60 beers from the tap.. pay what portions you drink . Self serve ..It’s fun as long as you can be in control of your drink portions . Must try for Beer connoisseur ?
