Barrel Stave Pour House - Fullerton

Pretty neat spot!Joined the cast of Cheers as I poured my own beers tonight, obligatory terrible pour with a mountain of foam, of course. Still, was fun to play bartender and get to try more beers than I typically would. You scan your ID and electronic form of payment with the cashier at the start. You receive a small device, think if a plastic bottle opener and a cigar cutter reproduced, and then off you go! Grab a glass, hope it's the right one for the style of sip you'll be selecting, make your choice, scan your device, and pour to your hearts content (and glassware's capacity)! Reconcile your tab at the counter where you scanned your ID. Such a unique concept and methodical way to save on labor costs and embrace the self-service way of consumerism.The beer assortment had some tasty choices, definitely will be back again to this Sweet Factory style brewery where you pay by the ounce!Beers were $0.59 per ounce, doing the math, a bit pricier for a standard pint, but a nice spin on the usual tasting house routine. Glassware was picked up often by the tending staff, makes sense if you're adding a tip at the close of your tab. Food truck rolled up in the evening (Fruti Di Mare) and it looked like a steady demand for lobster rolls, fish and chips, and other surf delights.

This was a nice place to chill with friends. The self serve beer is the winning point. For people like me who can't drink a lot, this place is perf. I can serve however much I want whenever I want. I don't feel like I'm overpaying or wasting anything. How it works pay at the register to the right of the entrance. You get a card thing that you use to tap the sign that is over the faucet. The beers are numbered, so you can see the name, where they're from, price, and type. You can also see them listed on the screens above. (Try to find the one with 0% alcohol! XD)They have a membership that sounds good for their regulars. No food is served here, but you can order food from next door or down the street. Restrooms are in the back and actually really clean! Hand washing station is public and outside of the toilet rooms. Parking is free on the street. There is a paid parking structure around the corner. There is no private parking lot here.

Such a fantastic place to hang out and drink some beer. The pour-it-yourself system allows you to drink at whatever pace you want, while enjoying a nice conversation with a friend or playing some board games with your significant other. We love these types of places and spent over 5 hours here just having a nice weekend day. We will come back anytime we are in the area!
