Firkin Around...Denver, Colorado.
  The place was packed this afternoon with GABF attendees. The beer selection is pretty much complete with English and Irish favorite beers and pretty much void of American craft beers. I guess that's okay if you are jonesing a Euro brew. After all, you can get an American craft beer in a million other places in this city, so it fills a niche.  As we entered the pub, a knight's suit of armor was in the entryway announcing that it was St Practice Day. That's not a typo; every 17th of the month, (except in March), they hold a day of practice! We hit the jackpot because it was exactly halfway to/from St. Patrick's Day. Guinness and Jameson were the daily drink special offerings. Our hotel had complimentary drink coupons and so we ordered some 'green beer' in honor of the day. I spied some Tullamore Dew behind the bar. In my estimation, any bar that carries the stuff is a good bar!Food, beer, spirits and great service.  Our waitress Kristen, was helpful with the menu selections and daily drink specials. As crowded as it was, we didn't wait long for a drink or our food. Our selections included a turkey with oven roasted veggies, Buffalo chicken fingers (medium, as recommended by Kristen), and a chicken wrap sandwich. All were enjoyable and the side orders of fries were hot and not greasy. Just a note: the chicken fingers are normally served with cayenne pepper, but you can ask them to use mild, medium or hot Buffalo sauce. I second the waitress' recommendation. For dessert, we had some Guinness. Now that's a proper dessert! | |
