I must be missing something, last time i went I got it in a little mug. Are they jealous of my dashing good looks. I assume the answer is yes.

Ask for a large coffee. Unless you're the type for whom large means one gallon.

There are a few coffee beers, not being a fan of coffee, but a HUGE fan of beer, I don't really like them, but I know a few exist.. they've had a few at the taproom, and I remember at the Brewers plate this year, I was pretty buzzed, and accidently tried a coffee stout of some sort, and it made me puke immediatly... barely made it to the mens room! Needless to say, a lot of other people loved it, I just don't do Mocha\Coffee\Java anything!

Although I love the fruit smoothies with the soft serve in them, I was looking for something different the other day and got a fresh squeezed orange juice with a bit of ginger in it to give it a little kick. Awesome!!

Your dashing good looks aside, I think they put regular coffee in the mugs, and cappuccinos, lattes, fancier drinks in the pint glasses.

Before I started bringing my own mug, I always got my large coffee (at both locations) served in a pint glass. Maybe it is about the dashing good looks...

Are dogs allowed in? My dog still pulls me in that direction because she wants the treats that Es handed out.
