It was a huge locale that frankly had an easygoing laid back vibe. There was a metal yurt you could sit in on the second floor. <br /><br />Remember that in the 90s, Arlington wasn't the yuppified playground for the affluent and douchey that it would later become. It was a fun place to go out and drink.

But people love it based on their past experience at bardo whatever. It must have been the best place on earth the way people talk about it. My impression is that this place was like a psychedelic brew pub concert venue and arcade. Is that accurate? It also seems like this guy was 15 years ahead of the craft brew craze and he is coming out of retirement to show us what is up. Like the craft beer world became too nerdy and cute and he wants us to start funneling double IPAs while having dizzy bat races and listening to grunge. I'm picturing PCU with craft beer. People are even wearing flannel shirts. Lets hope Nirvana 2.0 is on its way<br /><br />Nobody is suggesting making this investment your retirement plan. This place sounds weird as hell but people love their previous business almost unanimously.

If you had a chance to get the money through something like indiegogo rather than taking on another partner, you wouldn't do it? <br /><br />Indiegogo and sites like it are very useful for entrepreneurs at a time when it is harder to get conventional loans. Perhaps you should look into the subject a little more before you make up your mind.inkedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05350787243002946647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835710.post-30179941750534126912012-11-27T17:12:48.146-05:002012-11-27T17:12:48.146-05:00I was all ready to buy a pint glass till I saw tha...I was all ready to buy a pint glass till I saw that the description included cornhole.AnonoTrollnoreply@blogger.com
