Pour House vs. Natty Greene's

The owners of Chumley's, the Speakeasy Tavern and Blur just opened a brew pub downtown at 360 Federal Place.

The Pour House will offer $2 draughts of Poor Man's Pilsner when its approved to sell its own beer, planned for July. Prices for its three other home brews have not been set yet, said co-owner Mark Zerfoss. For now it offers a 12-beer selection that includes Stella Artois, Guinness, Newcastle and a handful of domestics.

Poor Man's beats Natty Greene's prices by a buck. We'll see where the other brews fall.

Can downtown handle two brew pubs?

Zerfoss says he's looking for a different sort of crowd. "Natty's goes after a yuppy crowd that want to be seen."

The gantlet is thrown.

Note: The Pour House has no relation to the music venue in Raleigh The Pour House.
