The SceneBeer tap handles are considered works of art here. Hundreds of them line the walls in decoration and dozens more stand behind the bar waiting for a pull from the knowledgeable bartenders. A marquee hangs in the center of the room listing the ever-changing selection of international ales and lagers. Stuffed deer heads and hundreds of band stickers round out the decor. The noise level can be high at times. There is a semi-private room in the back for those trying to escape.The DrawOne doesn't have to be a beer enthusiast to hang out here, but it helps. The crowd ranges from bike-messenger types to bartenders from other pubs. The rock-and-roll vibe is reflected in the jukebox. There's a lone TV hanging behind the bar, but conversation and laughter are the chief forms of entertainment.

Tornado is everything a great beer bar should be and more . David and his wife are great people and the rest of the staff is also alot of fun. They are also very loyal to local small breweries and that is rare .They look for quality in a product not the size of the operation that it came from . Next time you are there enjoy a nice pint of Powerhouse Ale from the Powerhouse Brewing Company in Sebastopol CA . It is to ale what Tornado is to drinking establishments .Also, dont miss the Barley Wine Festival in February , its the BEST in the entire country !!!
