A branch of the Oak Creek Brewing Company, this pub in Tlaquepacque Village is one of the major haunts of revelers. Chicken, tortillas, pizzas, crab cakes, pork loin and pretzels are on offer here. You can get milk, martinis, iced teas, coffee and hot chocolate as well. But the obvious draw is the beer made in the Oak Creek Brewery and stored in serving tanks. Time certainly flies when you find yourself enjoying yourself at this jovial establishment. Some of the brewery's signature beers available are Micro Light, Oak Creek Amber Ale, Village Nut Brown, Pullman Porter and the Seven Dwarfs.
