    I seem to always stop here for lunch whenever I head up north.  It has a very roomy pub/beer hall atmosphere. I like that the brewery is clearly visible from anywhere in the pub. The moving friar and dwarves provide an interesting touch.  This is the only microbrewery I know of in the states with a glockenspiel.  St. Stan's makes one of my favorite dark beers, actually for the style I not aware of any one else making a dark alt beer.  They also make one of the best barley wines I have ever tasted, its only available for a short time once a year and they don't bottle it.  I've seen the new label they have come up with, it seems they are trying to come up with a more contemporary look.  The old look set them apart now they look like all the rest.   I've had some of the best service and some of the worst service, good service seems the norm though.
