The Ale House has been razed for a strip center/parking lot. The Ale House was a historic pub/restaurant, here in Houston. They had a really nice 'english pub' bar, all wood and just absolutely beautiful. They had good food too! The building I believe was about 100 years old and was rumoured to be inhabited by 3 ghosts! The Ale House finally sold their property to a big developer who had been hounding them for years. They had their last hurrah about a month ago and today (7/17) they tore it down... see pics. This is a sad day in beer drinking history. http://www.groovehouse.org/alehouse.html rH ------------------ Updated: The Psychedelic Groove House of Rockets Basketball Love! join the club!

God this sucks! I loved that place!! How could this happen? Score another scoop for rH! ------------------
