Bierocracy

Joining the ranks of other LIC beer spots (Alewife, Bohemian Hall and Beer Garden), this 220-seat brew haven gets its Central European focus from Prague-expat owner Marek Chatrny. Thirteen beers are on tap and include lesser-known Czech and Slovak forms like mliko (a pilsner with sweet, milky-white foam) and an ezané pivo, a dual-gradient cup that spills a dark lager over the top of a light pilsner. Drinkers sit at communal wood tables to munch on biergarten standards including sausages and soft pretzels.
