"Voyager B.E.E.R.S."
Attendees: Presidential Conference- Ben and Cam.
Price: $8 Grolsch and $6 Caledonian Lager schooners. Quite pricey.
Location: 361 Little Lonsdale St. near Elizabeth St.
Distance: precisely a 12 min ride.
Obscurity: Well known in certain circles. Not obvious, but easy to find if you know where to look.
Ambiance: Relaxed, carefree vibe. Open but intimate and interactive. Easy going. Good for group interactions and to meet others.
Character: high ceiling is good. Basic room done up really well. Run down, industrial, warehouse feel but very "derelicté"
Decor: Funky, true gritty op-shop collection of furniture. Mismatched but really works. Has a student house vibe to it. Random rugs laid over bare concrete floor. Precariously placed fish tanks discourage tomfoolery and create an interesting, unique homely feel.
Comfort: Such a variety of mismatched chairs that I'm sure you'll find one you like.

Selection: Only two beers on tap. Limited but good options. Small selection of good bottled beers.
Patrons: Friendly, cool. Dropping in for a casual drink. No 'scene', everyone is welcome.
Staff: Bored as shit, extremely friendly and nice. Very outgoing, welcoming and chatty. Table service. Even when the place is empty, staff attitude makes it a fun experience. Attentive.
Beer Garden: Small smokers room, no outdoor seating.
Amenities: Cleanest toilet in the most graffitied room you'll ever see. Lends to the "derelicté" vibe.
Specials: Every day specials ranging from pilates and indie-director film screenings to $2.50 pots and $8 burgers on a Tuesday.
Field Notes: Good selection of pop and rock music. The staff gave us free toasted rolls- awesome! Free wi-fi.

Arbitrary Score: 80
Straightforward but dynamic place that is great for anytime of the day, whether for breakfast, lunch, dinner or late-night drinks.
