What players say
do not buy, buggy as hell to the point where you cant progress. order items that don't turn up and items just randomly disappearing... to name just a few, plus the game is dead, no support

DO NOT BUY! Could have been a great game but is buggy and "unfinished"! Although it is a "full release", I have experienced duplication glitches that then mess with the brewing and fermenting side. A busy bar means you can not keep track of customer orders and easily give wrong orders. I was so disappointed think it could have been a really good game but just not in a good state.
Nice "Relaxing" game with a whole bar full of horseheads , Really innovative to have actual LIVE radio channels in realtime on the jukebox too. Would recommend to the regular alcoholic!
