    Yagers lives again

    "I stopped by with a couple buddies a couple weeks ago. Looks pretty much the same as it did. Beer selection was disappointing. Bartenders knew nothing about the beer they were serving. I need to check out the two wine bars in that area. Oops......"

    Beers of Oktoberfest - Manderes

    "It was great trying the different Oktoberfest beers, but I wish they didn't take 3 hours to try samples of 8 beers. I had to leave before trying the last two."
