Assgass #12 & #13: The Good Hurt & Air Conditioned

Crossed the street after an art opening and wandered in here. They were trying to charge $10 to watch local bands but let us through when we started to walk away. Pretty empty on a Saturday night. Not much more than well liquor and your basic beers at the bar. Roberto made the mistake of ordering me a mojito that tasted like instamix--don't order mojitos at a bar that only serves well drinks. Did they have some drink specials I missed? An Indian James Blunt provided generic music. At least there were pool tables...missing the 8 ball. Even the busty female bartenders dressed as nurses didn't do much for this place.

A small and cozy wine and beer bar that resembles a hip cafe in a trendy neighborhood on one side, and lit like a vegas strip club on the other. Tasty beers, large selection of wine, some specialty drinks, knowledgable bartenders, and a fun dj. A good hang out spot and place to indulge your alcoholic taste buds.
Not the Air Conditioned on Lincoln that I never made my way to.
