It's nice to be regular

​A Civil Week
We’re proud of the great beers we brew and always grateful for the compliments we receive for our tasty pints. But more often than not, customers also praise the atmosphere we’ve created in our pub. We can’t take all the credit, though. Our regulars shape our pub every night of the week.
 
In fact, every night the Civil Life is a different place, with different bartenders working and different groups of regulars coming to see us. Unless you’re that tall, blond, white-wine-quaffing friend who comes in every night, you probably have a picture of our pub drawn from the experience you have on a particular night.
 
Tuesdays and Wednesdays tend to be a little slower, with lots of regulars taking their seats at the bar. Thursdays are generally busier, with lots of regular faces. You might even hear our notorious bluegrass jam band that plays twice a month. The early part of Friday is slower, but with a loyal coterie of regulars served by either Joe or me––we take turns bartending Friday’s early shift. The night is busy, but plenty of regulars are still in attendance.
 
Saturdays bring a diverse crowd, with regulars weighted on the early end of the day. Many people from the hinterland make their way in, often for the first time. We sometimes get buses of revelers, and we are thankful when they don’t come in drinking cans of beer and raising a ruckus. Getting twenty customers at once, who’ve already been drinking, makes it harder to attend to our cherished regulars, which is one reason we continue to discourage buses. On the plus side, all of our full-time bartenders work Saturday, including the Captain of the barley ship himself.
 
Sundays feature tacos in the warm months and soup in the cold months with lots of regulars in attendance. We’re only open noon till seven, but the kitchen stays very busy.
 
Whichever day you come in, we thank you. Over the next several weeks, we’d like to paint a series of pictures of what the Civil Life is like each day of the week. We hope you’ll enjoy this peek into the different faces of the Civil Life. As always, keep drinking and being Civil!

    The Civil Blog has returned.  It is predominantly authored by Civil Life Barman, Dr. Patrick Hurley, who can be found tending to our bar patrons on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.  He is also responsible for tending to our draft lines, which is recognized as one of our most important tasks. Special guest writers will appear from time to time. We hope reading this blog will give you much insight about the Civil Life and most importantly help you understand a bit more about all of us that work here and the beers we put our hearts into.

  • Due to our small inside pub space we currently do not feel we could be safe to open for our staff and customers.  We currently are hoping to get our patios re-modeled during this shutdown and are hoping for an outdoor only opening in late September or early October. Hopefully.
  • Until then OUR PUB IS SADLY CLOSED FOR THE TIME BEING DUE TO COVID19.   WE WILL RETURN AND PROSPER.
