This isn't really a bar. They have a sh*t ton of beer on draught and some light food. No smoking inside. You can do flights and taste a lot of different beers. Secret tip: Start a tab downstairs with your food order then order beer upstairs. When you close your check if the line is long upstairs you aren't standing in it.

Unofficial: Climb up in a cool fort. Official: Fort Hawkins was established in 1806 by President Thomas Jefferson and Indian Agent Col. Benjamin Hawkins as an official U.S. Army Fort and Indian Factory for trading and meeting with Native Americans. At the time, it was the western frontier and a wilderness. It overlooked the ancient Indian Mounds
