Rock. My buddy Michael and I confirmed the existence of a great pub in South Philly last night. I had long since decided that such things were the stuff of legend and that there was nothing but grimey, little places with Coors Light on tap, no food but peanuts, and a host of angry regulars who look like they've been sitting on those same stools for sixty years.

But this place we went to last night, The South Philadelphia Taproom had lots of great beers on tap, excellent food, and friendly bartenders. And it's only four blocks from my house (two blocks from my subway stop)... sweet!

Big thanks to b_stung for telling us about it (don't worry, we won't forsake Tritone).
