Having had four years to try various bars in the beer-loving college city of Ann Arbor, I was pleasantly surprised to find a brand-new place as good as any of them right here in Waterloo, where I grew up. Hopskeller is spacious but full of character, a beautiful place. Of the 7-8 beers I tried, I would gladly re-order Tower Hill Strong Bitter, Moorgate, and Northern English Brown Ale. All four of the wood fire pizzas we tried were excellent. This is my new favorite place in Waterloo.
