Don't go to Rogue for the food. Yes, they do have a kobe beef burger, and yes, I suppose if you're really hungry, you should eat, but there are better—dare I say it—non-kobe burgers in town.

Don't go for the non-smoking section. I've had three visits to Rogue and twice the non-smoking section has been closed. Isn't that illegal?

Then why on earth should you go to Rogue? Oh, yeah, the beer! Over 28 microbrews on taps, with generally only a couple guests. Last night those guests were Guinness and Coors. Which means there are a lot of beers to try. If you're new to these beers, you might want to get a taster tray, where you select 4 beers to try. Or be sure to pester your server or barkeep. These beers are all over the map, and very tasty. A full bar means your drinking friends can join you, as well. Oh, and they have a distillery.

They also have a private conference room.
