Great beer, and to echo Ignatz above, a great variety from all over to please those of us a little burned out on sediment heavy, overly hop'd, micro/macros.

A well deserved honor. It's even more amazing when you consider the sheer amount of world class beer they have so close to campus. Normally, places of this sort will cater to the popular macro crowd.

True ignatz, Ashley's is going to have some pretty stiff competition soon too when "World of Beer" opens in a couple months: http://bit.ly/aadc-worldbeer
