Editorial Review for Flying Saucer Draught Emporium – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
More like a trendy San Francisco pub than a Houston hang, it exudes aggressive-yet-genuine cool. Belly up to a long bar, nuzzle against a table, nestle on a comfy couch or perch upstairs in the Pub of Love. Pierced and dreadlocked bohemians recline comfortably upon weathered sofas, while buttoned-down frat alumni take to the tables, all in peaceful coexistence.
The Draw
The 85 taps come from faraway lands and just down the road. Not only are there St. Arnold's and the usual Texas brews, there are also several from the obscure Real Ale brewery in Blanco. Try the Pale Rye Ale; it's a hoot. There's a full-bodied root beer on tap, as well as a modest but thoughtful selection of wines.

Insider Tips
The ExtrasTuesday is singer-songwriter night, an open mike for musicians. Wednesday is Brewery Night (buy the featured beer, keep the glass). On Sundays, Texas brews are only $2.50 per pint.
