Final Gravity Taproom and Bottle Shop

So, technically I didn't go here today. However, I have been here like three times since I discovered this place. And, I'd be lying if I said I didn't check their taplist every day or if I said I have never completely changed my plans when I realized they had something I absolutely needed to try on tap.

I am just going to start with my final opinion and go from there. I freaking love Final Gravity Taproom and Bottle shop in Roseville. It is kind of hard to explain unless you just go there. So you should probably just go there. But in case you needed convincing:

FG is this awesome place with 20 rotating taps, one casked, one nitro, and several fridges filled with unique and hard-to-come-by bottles. The owners are super cool and relaxed,  the bartenders kind of remind me of some of my best friends, and the clientele are exactly what you would want out of a craft brew place: friendly and totally cool with striking up a random beer-related conversation. The place is just very chill and the beers they have on tap are usually very in-line with my tastes. The times I have been in so far, I have found the taps to be pleasantly full of IPAs. They have a lot of local beers and some stuff from other states. If you can't decide which beers to drink, you can make your own flight. So, that's pretty handy.

The setup itself is nice. The inside of the building is very streamlined and clean. There is a bar top and a number of tables and chairs. They have a nice little patio outside. Possibly my favorite thing is that you can take your dog and sit on the patio. No dogs inside, of course, but outside is just fine. The patio is pretty well shaded, plus the tables have umbrellas, so even if it is hot out there, it is still pleasant to sit outside. The first time we ever went to FG, we were on our way out of town for a camping trip and had the dog with us. Once I found out we could bring our doggy, we naturally had to stop for a pre-camp beer. My Fiance and I just sat out there with our pup, Sierra, and enjoyed some delish brews (Track 7's Panic IPA and Ommegang's Gnomegang). While we were sitting, an employee came out to offer us water for Sierra and, of course, to snuggle the doggy.

They do have food and it is pretty much what you would want out of a beer-focused placed. Remember, this is not a restaurant, it is a taproom and bottle shop. That being said, their menu is actually pretty perfect (for me) for drinking beer. It has your standards: nachos, tacos, hot dogs, etc. I do have to say, their charcuterie and cheese plate is actually pretty fan-freaking-tastic, though. I haven't tried their pulled pork sandwich, but I'll bet it's pretty nommy. They also have the option to order food from the Peruvian restaurant next store. I haven't done that yet, but I think I might have to next time.

Anyway, check it out. Happy hour every day from 3-6 and all day on Sundays. They are having their 1-year anniversary party on 8/2. I'll probably be there.
