Last night I attended the Firestone Walker tap takeover event at Urban Family Public House in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood. It was the first time I'd been to UFPH and, at least intially, I liked the look and feel of the place. Unfortunately, that's not the same opinion I had when I left.
Their doors opened just after 4:00PM but, unfortunately, K&L Distributing wasn't on the ball and the Firestone Walker kegs had not yet been delivered. After a few frantic phone calls from Firestone Walker's local rep, we were assured the kegs were on the way and would arrive in 10-15 minutes, which they did. I don't blame UFPH for this at all. They have no control over K&L.
Once I got settled at the bar, however, I started looking over the taplist and prices. If you'll recall from a post I made earlier this week, the tap list included:
-Pivo Pils
-Double Barrel Ale
-Pale 31
-Union Jack
-Wookey Jack
-Double Jack
-Nectar IPA
-Hemp Ale
-Walker's Reserve
-Unfiltered DBA
-Double DBA
-§ucaba
-Parabola
-Reginald Brett
-Lil' Opal (on French Oak)
