Check Out The Monk's Kettle's New Patio

Seating at The Monk's Kettle has always been a tough ticket, but waits should hopefully ease up a bit now that their new patio has made its debut. With seating for 20 (and heat lamps for those chillier days), the sidewalk perch on 16th Street is going to become very sought-after for the remainder of Indian summer. While you're there, you'll also be able to enjoy even more draft beers (the bar added four draft lines and a cask engine, bringing their total draft selection to 28 brews), sample fresh German lagers in honor of Oktoberfest, and sip a new Monk's-centric offering from Almanac: Porchbier, a wheat-berry session saison dry-hopped with Sorachi Ace and Amarillo hops. And gentlemen needing some release for all that beer will also be happy to learn that the men's bathroom has been expanded, and can now accommodate two beer-loving bros at one time. The bar is now open once again, and hours are the same: 12 pm-2 am (with outdoor seats open until 10 pm).
