Tap79 Gastropub & Craft Beer Bar

With years of experience helming kitchens for top hotel chains, chef/owner Alfredo Patino’s approach to beer is different than most: He stocks his gastropub with suds that please a variety of palates, peppering the inventory with beers characterized by different notes, like spicy (Aviator Brewing Company’s Devil’s Tramping Ground Tripel) sweet (Leffe Blonde) and hoppy (Swamp Ape Double Imperial IPA). The rotating draft selection, which usually features three local breweries and five craft brews from around the country, is where you’ll find beers from Kona Brewing Co., Mad Anthony Brewing Co. and other well-known makers. The bottle program services “beer geeks” with more esoteric varieties.
