I went a couple of days after they opened (for the meal that the article linked above is based on, in fact - my wife wrote it). The food is great, as is the tap list:

Kensington Augusta Ale
Beau's Lug Tread
Denison's Weissbier
Denison's Dunkel
Krombacher Pilsner
Mill Street Cobblestone Stout
Mill Street Organic Lager
Muskoka Cream Ale
Muskoka Mad Tom
Spearhead Hawaiian Pale Ale

Pints are $6-$7, and they're also doing a Radler using Denison's Weissbier, house-made lemonade and 7-Up.

This is such a dubious marketing line:

"The comfortable atmosphere will seek to squash the intimidation factor that mainstream diners and drinkers may feel when confronted with intricate and esoteric quaffs. "

Esoteric quaffs? How about a few decent craft beers?

That sounds like something Cyrano might call a french dandy. "Begone, thou esoteric quaff!"

You may scoff, but trust me, Moses' "quaffs" can indeed be quite intricate, and very tasty! Incidentally, the man knows his beer, too, so don't be surprised to see some decent taps and/or bottles being stocked. I expect this to be a great improvement on the Bohemian and a welcome yin to Frankie Solarik's Barchef yang.
