The People's Pale Ale now available at Kickbacks. Had several pints last night. Good stuff, looking forward to more.

Someone earlier in this thread asked about a taco truck.  I'm a huge fan of food trucks of all stripes, but haven't made it out to 103rd Street & Old Middleburg Road to "El Taco Yama" taco truck run by Christian and Susana Mazariegos.

Has anyone tried them out?

The place was packed Saturday night - great atmosphere.  The Pale Ale and the Riverside Red are awesome!

There was an awesome crowd there Saturday. The tap room is a good size and has a good atmosphere. All of the staff I dealt with were great. The other cool thing was the first beer you bought was a $1 more ($4), and then you just refilled your glass and got to keep it at the end of the night. It was a nice promotion for the grand opening.

I guess I should also mention that the beer is good. I really liked their stout and pale ale.

QuoteBold City did most of their initial marketing on their own, and then switched to a distributor associated with Anheiser Busch.

Brian and Susan were telling me that they went with North Florida Sales so that they could get the beer in the Jags stadium. Its always moving around, so they never know where the beer will be, as NFS controls where beers go, but I have yet to see it in the Club section, but maybe one day, we will see both home crafted beers in the stadium. Club sells Champion brand items in cans and bottles, so maybe if Intuition can get a line created....

The Pale Ale is available at European Street on Park, at least.

I'm so proud of our baby brewery district.
I only wish the Cassat area could have supported Just Brew It.

WHYWHYWHY did the light outside FRATTLE frame stair rail welding shop (next to J&J crankshaft and Frank's metal sharpening on the Gilmore/Ralph side of 2670Rosselle) have to be dismantled?
lookslike someone's playing games to keep their customers scared from wandering between the 2...

Was there Friday, and have to say that it was awesome - with one exception -crying baby inside.  If you were that person, you were breaking major rules of being out etiquette:  1.)  Really, should you bring your 1-2 yr old to a bar?  I know there's not chicken wings, jumbo flat screens and pool tables, but it's still a bar - and the rest of us found a way to go out and find a sitter for our kids.  2.)  When said child starts crying uncontrollably - take 'it' outside - we don't want to hear it.  But instead you can try to ingnore it and shoosh it all you want, it's not going to stop - it's what they do.

Now that that rant is over - has anyone tried the brawurst pizza - two of my favorite things..... together...... it must be awesome!   I guess I'll find out this weekend.

There's a couple who goes up there from time to time with their baby, haven't actually introduced myself... but they seem really nice and their child is usually really well behaved.

Stephen, Pele's Wood Fired pizza is really good(not quite as good as Pompeiis or Tommys but definately in the conversation).  I'll buy you one if I ever see you up there.

Everytime I've been up there Ricker, there are private security guards at Intuition... so although the neighborhood isn't the greatest, I've never felt unsafe.

The pizza is absolutely delicious.  I haven't determined my favorite yet, but the Pele's Special is quite tasty.  They'll be open Sunday for the game!  I imagine Ben will have a few extra tvs on site so that everyone isn't crowded around the one behind the bar (but that would be exciting too).

hey Fieldafm, not trying to be a crybaby _ :D   glad to see all the new beer craving traffic feeling welcome and brave.
and, having done business with J&J, and Franks, Frattle as well... I KNOW with certainty that the pole on the west end of the drainage retention swampy soft area of Gilmore on the north side of the road aproaching King, DID indeed have a nice purdy bright light atop it.until shortly before Intuition opened.

VOILA the fixture is gone.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

many nights have seen folks enjoy the safety of the light that many of us in the RAP assisted "R2" neighborhood watch wish to see restored as we continue to foot it to BoldCity and now the fancy TapRoom too.  

AND yeah I too remain happily soooprised to see the scowling frowny faced watchdog err security man every single evening they're open!! can I get a hell yeah!  he keeps the ladies coming back I'm certain of it.

ABSOLUTELY they are doing everything THEY can do to be the perfect addition to their surrounds!

I recently reported TWENTY pole lights in this ONE watch zone alone. 83 in another! EIGHTYTHREE. that's 83 with a capital WTH man?!?

I cannot reasonably figure why it would have been dismantled.

Such shady manuevers undermine our efforts and counter the goals we volunteers have established for the entire area north of College to the Interstate, from King to Stockton.  frustrating.  antisocial.  rude.  intentional.

See thread on hovering helicopters on Ernest.  Intuition=smart to have security on payroll.  
Mr. Davis would be wise to deliver a fresh in-the-box fixture to 2670-7 Rosselle with a knowing smile on his face.
Can I donate one to the cause? I'm looking at it right now IF you're reading this, Mr.Ben D.

KAY where are you when I need you?

Principal Carroway of Central Riverside Elementary (Gilmore@Acosta) would be happy to see that end of the street shining again.

Sad news.  They're no longer having the game shown on tv at Intuition this Sunday.  Guess that means it's back to Kickback's for me.

Like HAVING to watch the game at Kickbacks is such a bad thing?  You're getting spoiled now not living in downtown anymore, LOL
