Awesome. Yeah the saucer isn't too fun after 8 or 9. It's just a huge room with no sound baffling, all the noise just kind of adds up. But the beer selection is the best here. Actually the steak place in Cameron Village just refurbished and I think they now have more beers on tap than the saucer if you can believe it.
I work with a guy who used to bartend at Mitch's, maybe around the time you'd have been. Plenty of other places for a pint anyways. I'll send you an email and maybe after the holidays we can meet up and talk AH2.
