It takes every fiber of my being to write this post, as I want to keep my new favorite bar a secret. But that would not be fair to the masses yearning for the experience Villan's Tavern brings to any given night. "Closed" Monday and Tuesday, there packed nights are the weekends. Located downtown in what feels like the middle of a "Law and Order SVU" set, this little hideaway is dark and reminds me somewhat of the swamp house from "Pirates of the Caribbean; Dead Man's Chest." Old bottles line the windows like an "Oregon Trail" General store, and bluegrass music fills the speakers (my personal favorite- Alison Krauss).
For fellow beer nerds: This place also has my favorite beer, Allagash White (made in Maine). It's your kind of beer if you like refreshing, unfiltered Belgian's with complex tastes (not too sweet, like those damn monk beers).
Well just go, I've already said too much.
