We tried two house beers last night, Weizer and Dunkel (Oh god we fall in to cliche trap!). Anyway both of them were different than any other beer I tasted in their categories, both fruity and with a distinct taste. Fruity Dunkel sounds strange, but it was also had more burned, smokey taste with dark color too. You could easily confuse it to Guinness by the looks.

It's a casual place. Dedicated smokers section. Great staff speaking good English. You should definitely try it if you are...

Although I didn't have any, I noticed that the tequila selection looked quite promising -- no Sierra...
