Upstairs · Twenty Taps

Pour your own. Pay by the ounce.

Tap a card, take a glass, pour as much or as little as you want of any of twenty taps. An ounce of something you have never heard of costs about a quarter.

What’s on

What’s on at Old Main

The Beer Wall

Twenty taps. Zero waiting.

Nebraska breweries anchor the wall; the rest rotates weekly. Because you pay by the ounce, a flight is just… pouring less. Taste everything.

    Grab a bracelet

    At the upstairs bar. It opens every tap on the wall.

  2. 02

    Scan the tap

    Hold the bracelet to any handle and pour — an ounce or a pint, your call.

  3. 03

    Pay by the ounce
