With more than a thousands different beers on offer each year, Thirsty Monk has earned national recognition as one of the best beer bars in the world. Besides a slew of beers by the bottle (about 150 different types), the taps feature a large, rotating array of craft beers, many brewed locally. Day and night, Thirsty Monk has a jovial vibe that radiates throughout the main floor bar, onto the outdoor porch and up to the Top of the Monk bar upstairs. Lots of tasty options dot the food menu, including a selection of international bar bites hailing from Germany, Belgium and Spain. You'll also find sandwiches, tacos and pizza plus beloved dishes such as the famed Monk Nuts and White Tire Dip, made with beer, of course.
