OLD MARKET. This downtown brewpub is a favorite local hangout. The Upstream Brewing Company has good food and homemade beer. The restaurant is large, plus there's a bar area and billiard's room. There's even a courtyard and sun deck for use during pleasant spring and summer evenings. This microbrewery/restaurant has nine house brews that range from light and dark ales to a homemade root beer. The ambience is fun and casual. The crowd is friendly, but tends to be better dressed.
