text: I love this place For several reasonsnnIts an old house converted perfectly into a bar They use the space well and I always feel comfy cozy and welcome inside The artwork on the walls never ceases to amaze and inspire me They have a chalkboard above the beer cooler telling you the specials as well as the musical stylings of the evening The lighting is good not too dark and there are tables and chairs to kick it with the homies and a small dance area for gettin downnnTheir beer selection is incredible They carry many of my favorites Xingu Sammy Smith Oatmeal Stout Strongbow th St Ale Hebrew Messiah Bold as well as a grip of others to test and try Last night I went with the Philosophers brew a dark ale with a bite as big as Plato Socrates and Comtes contributions to rational thought alcvol they are not fucking around here I also tried the Raspberry Dark Brown Ale which was dark smooth and not overwhelming fruity like many lighter fruit beers can be nnTuesday nights are Downtime at the Lost Leaf The musical stylings of the DJs during Downtime can best be described as lowkey down tempo funk shui originality Relax sit back and hand me a chilled out bone crunching bassbusting groove to soothe my nerves An accurate mix of hip hop drum and bass and electro You can feel the good vibes flowing throughout the bar when the DJ spins some Caspa mixtape shit It is definitely a chilled atmosphere driven by the needle of the recordnnOn a side note I want to apologize for my friend who puked in front of the bathroom a couple months ago I took her outside for fresh air and apparently the DJs called her out hardcore for doing it She is a lightweight not experienced in the exquisite alcoholicness of the brews you guys serve nnIf you are from out of town I highly recommend you check out the Lost Leaf You will get the true raw downtown urban vibe that Phoenix so exclusively offers
