  Super dope place to come after work to grab a few beers. Really like the ability to pour your own drinks and because of that the possibility of trying it out before you commit to a full glass. Lots of options to choose from and there was this one pineapple cider I kept coming back to because it was so good.
  
  They're redoing their kitchen or something right now so there's not really any food which really sucks so a star was taken off for that but hopefully they'll be back and up and running soon so we don't have to go elsewhere to fulfill our drunchies!! Will definitely be back here soon.

  Pretty cool selection of beers! Really like that I have this bracelet that I tap and can get my pours - although, that tempts me to drink a lot more.
  
  Their food is not bad at all - your typical bar food I'd say. Jalapeño poppers and Peri peri fries are usually our go to if we absolutely must get food.

  This is such a cool concept, like a Yogurtland for alcohol??? Sign me up. I love how you can just try and taste as many as you want. You check in at the front where they check your ID and give you a wristband. Then you use that wristband to scan at the different stations as you pour. The quantities are recorded as you pour and you're later charged accordingly. Love the whole system; everything was very streamlined.
  
  My friend and I went on a Saturday evening around 8:30, and it was pretty empty with very chill vibes. Not overbearingly loud, which I appreciated. Staff members were nice and helpful, and the interior/stations were clean and well-kept. I really liked the cider options that I tried.
  
  We didn't try any of the food because we deemed it overpriced, but the price of the alcohol is pretty fair, and I was actually expecting my bill to come out higher than it did. Definitely a cool spot to go socialize!!

  More like a 3.5 in my book. I've been meaning to check out a self-pour taproom. Heard of the one in Santa Cruz, but was happy to find RR in the neighborhood.
  
  I came here with a few friends for happy hour (M-F 3-6 PM). They have 20% off their beers and food/appetizers. You register at the front desk for a bracelet and they pre-authorize $20 on your card. FYI $10 is the minimum charge per bracelet for drinks so we opted to share one.
  
  There are glasses underneath the taps. Once you have your bracelet, you choose the size of your beer (taster, half, full), scan your bracelet, and viola you can pour yourself a beer. They had a pretty good selection of beers, ciders, a few wines, and one Brew Dr. kombucha.
  
  They only had one size goblets which were pretty nice, but bulky. We tried a few tasters so it would've been nice to have glasses according to the size you want. Decent bar food. Overall, unique experience if you're looking to change it up.

  You know, this place is a-ok! It's not pretentious and does everything right for a taproom. Staff is laid back, enough space to have your pack of friends come hang out, and who doesn't love automatic taps? I've only seen two down at once of all the times I've been here and it's pretty fun to pour yourself tastings of things   that will probably having you make a face your friends will laugh at. Great place, and well worth a visit. Come here first when you head downtown Sunnyvale!
