Was in Madison for the Great Taste of the Midwest and heard rumors that Fou Foune was being tapped here so we headed over as fast as possible. To our luck we got there in time to have a glass before it tapped out.
Overall I was very impressed with the place. Great atmosphere, the place was packed we had to stand at the bar because there were absolutely no seats available. The bartender was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tap list was really solid with a lot of quality Belgium beers. We were there for the Fou Foune so we didn’t even have a chance to look at the menu to see what the place had to offer.
Overall I liked the bar and will gladly return the next time I’m in Madison.

Had meal on business trip on 5/7. I was considering a few different beers to accompany with my dinner and mentioned to bartender. He made a selection and explained reason for decision. I think he was right on with recommendation. ... Bartender was awesome making recommendations to others at bar based on conversations with other patrons. ... Saw some bottled imports I haven't seen before. ... Definitely would return if in Madison.

This place is great. The beer is very good, of course. It's a nice mix of Belgians, Wisconsin beers, and beers from the Midwest, Oregon, Colorado, etc. Even Tennessee.
The food was as good as the beer, which often is not the case. The cheese plate selections were exceptional. The service was friendly and fairly efficient.
The vibe is friendly restaurant. It's not a raucous party bar. You can actually talk to your companion ... just think of that!!

Visited Great Taste Eve 2015. Prennial tap takeover, but I was solo and able to find a seat at the bar. Besides the fantastic Perennial list the overall selection was incredible, as was the food. Service at the bar was spot on. I hope to be able to go back here everytime I visit Madison. I made it to a lot of places GT Eve and this place stood out as the best.

along with the wine and hop shop, Monroe St is now a beer incubator destination!

This place is kinda small. It can certainly get crowded. Some bright colors and closely confined tables. Good service that knows their beer. Great list, too. Lots of local taps. The food is really good.
