Flying SquirrelWith 20 rotating craft brews on tap, Flying Squirrel needs an expert to head its beer program. Enter beer manager and bartender John Carr.
“Beer is kind of my forte,” he told me.
Though, that might be an understatement. John is a vast source of beer knowledge, from its flavors to its history. He is one essential part of what sets Flying Squirrel apart from other pubs, though there are several others.
First, Flying Squirrel does not offer standard domestics – Bud, Coors, Miller, etc.
“Less is more,” said John. “The more beers you offer, the longer some are sitting around. They get stale.”
