Flying Saucer

The Flying Saucer Draught Emporium, perhaps the only place in the Power & Light District that encourages you to embrace your inner beer snob, has more than 200 malted grain options and food pairings to accompany most of the varieties. Seven days a week, leggy, skirted waitresses in knee-high stockings serve up modestly priced (there’s at least one draft selection for $2.75) imports, micros, beer cocktails, brats, burgers, and pizza slices to a mostly white male crowd, lovingly referred to as “beerKnurds.” The Flying Saucer has booths, tables, couches and overstuffed chairs in a dining room with platters and plates plastered all over the walls. Look up high and you can see the personalized plates of the few proud individuals who have achieved the Ring of Honor by consuming all 75 draft and 125 bottled selections.
