Last night I met one of my best friends from high school, Maron, at Lillie’s for a beer. Lillie’s describes itself as an “Irish-Victorian restaurant”; I’m not sure what that means, other than that they serve Irish pub fare, but I did appreciate the rough wood, antique carvings and extensive beer list. I started with a Bud Light, because…well…I like them, but Maron quickly turned me on to the deliciousness that is Chimay Rouge.

The bar is named for Emilie (Lillie) Le Breton, an actress and model who was mistress to the King of England and served as Oscar Wilde’s muse.
