Great drinks, great bloody mary options! My husband and I were in on a rare get away on Tuesday, 8/10. We enjoyed all the drinks we had. We decided to go eat at Night Owl and we're having an amazing time there, but we enjoyed the drinks we had at Krug so much we decided to go back.

Third - the beer selection is more than amazing. Name something and they likely have it. Not just that - but the bartenders and bartendresses actually care about really good beer.
