I think half these places advertise they have a rare beer just to get you in the door then tell you its all gone. The Tap House has an online listing each day - with a few different varieties labeld "On Deck".
When they told me the Russian River varieties were out I said give me a Lagunitas Sucks which was a variety listed on deck. They wouldn't tap it. "What the hell does on deck mean", I said. To me when you run out of something you tap what's on deck - pissed me off - won't go back there.

Monks is more than just a bar,you go there to say you have been.Put it on your list DZ and you will not regret it regardless of what is on tap. Get the mussels....is the Taphouse the bar next to UPenn on the second floor? If so that was a fun spot and walking distance from the frat house!
Will I see you at the little man's Bday party in a couple weeks?

Wow Chris - you get around. Yes, the same place near Upenn. Food was good. I'll get to Monks next time I visit my daughter who's a first year Med student at Thomas Jefferson.

Little mans birthday? - hopefully!
