A bar that runs the length of the restaurant and walls covered with "saucers" greet you, establishing the Flying Saucer's theme. The atmosphere caters to families most of the day and, with an outdoor patio/beer garden, draws a young executive crowd at night. Beer nerds should make this bar a must stop on their list: The Flying Saucer has a whopping 80 beers on tap and another 140 in bottles. You can purchase a sampling of different regions to educate you on some of the finer distinctions between various beer types. They reward repeat visitors by hanging a personalized brass saucer on the wall after drinking 200 different beers. Come on Mondays when all pints on the wall are $2.50, or on Wednesdays for brewery night, when you buy the beer and get to keep the glass. No aliens have been spotted yet, but it seems to be a good place to pick up beer-drinking guys. -- NCN
