Coming from Portland, home to hundreds of breweries and brewpubs, we sorely miss our good beer. We were excited to see that DuClaw's had a brew pub in Fells Point, close enough that we can walk, if needs be. We went on a Friday night and noticed the restaurant wasn't all that full. Granted, it was raining pretty hard so I'm sure some folks just stayed home. But still, the place was kinda empty. We should have seen this as a warning sign! We were seated promptly and started off with the beer sampler and a pint of the "Funk", their American style wheat. Of the beers we tasted, none of them tasted all that good. The Funk beer was a fairly weak wheat and tasted more like a pilsner.

On to the food...we both ordered cheeseburgers ($7.99). Mine came way too well done (asked for medium well) and the bun was crunchy. I don't like crunchy buns or overdone beef burgers so I wasn't happy with my meal. Mr_BTM also had a burger but his was done to his liking and he still didn't like it! The food simply lacked flavor. I wasn't impressed with the menu options either. I'm not sure we'd go back here since the beer and food were quite mediocre.
