Our review of 3 Crow Bar in East Nashville: This place is amazing! We tasted 2 beers. 1 was awesome. 1 was bland.

Classroom: 3 Crow Bar

Total of 30 Beers on tap, over 70 beers in the bottle!  A brand new bigger patio and a food menu that includes Sandwiches, wraps, pizza, snacks….etc  But enough “classroom” details, on to the BEER!

Josh started with the GROLSCH FLIP TOP and Brian went for the COOPERS PALE ALE.

The Grolsch is one of the best lagers we’ve had.  Right up there with Samuel Smith’s.  It’s really smooth, a tad sweet (but not over-bearing) and it’s really easy to drink.  Hahaha that makes us laugh, “really easy to drink” …. like beer is ever literally ‘difficult’ to drink ~ GRADE : A

The Coopers Pale Ale.  hhhmmmm, hhmmpphhhh, ugh…. and all those other words.  We really wanted to like this one.  We drank the Coopers Lager at Olde World Leaf and Ale in Brentwood and it was a decent Australian lager.   The lager is like the next step up from Foster’s.  You all probably know the Foster’s “Oil Can”…. that was the good beer we (Brian) would buy in college, aaahhh the memories.  Anyway we digress.  If Foster’s is Australian for beer, Coopers lager is Australian for “great” beer, Coopers Pale is Australian for bland.  It’s just kind of……there.  There is sediment in the bottle of this pale.  Which normally indicates a good, healthy, strong brew.  Not so much here, we think they put it in for show.  GRADE : C-

So, back to 3 CROW BAR.  We really like this place.  It’s a no frills East Nashville bar.  Some of the best bar sandwiches we’ve had and they’ve got a killer beer selection.  Don’t be scared, venture into the East side, and go to 3 CROW BAR!
