Best Midtown spot to geek out on the suds: The #beernerd list at LowBrau

LowBrau is so on it's beer game. Consider: Brew-geek website BeerAdvocate recently ranked Oklahoma brewery Prairie Artisan Ales' Bomb!—an imperial coffee stout brewed with chocolate and hot chilies—as one of the 10 best new beers of 2013. Pretty challenging to find this brew in Sacramento—but then LowBrau shows up with bottles on its menu for just $12! All sorts of treasures exist on LowBrau's “#beernerdmenu,” which the restaurant and bar's owners update regularly on Twitter and Instagram (visit @LowBrau916 for the hookup). 1050 20th Street, (916) 706-2636, www.lowbrau sacramento.com.
