Rock Bottom

Rock Bottom Brew Pub is more than a shopping break between stops at Sears and Nordstrom. Skip the mall-entrance family restaurant, and head to the maple bar that divides the burger people from the beer crowd. Gleaming vats hold hundreds of pints of house-made brews. Many recipes are seasonal, with names like Lumpy Dog, Munich Gold and Checkmate Pilsner. And those burgers? They arent bad, either.
