Summary Since 1854, McSorley's Old Ale House has been a New York institution. But it's also home to the deeply personal story of the author, who grew up there, and his father, Geoffrey "Bart" Bartholomew, who has worked the taps for forty-five years. Rafe's story is a big-hearted memoir about family, and a rich history of New York's beloved landmark pub.
