Really old 20 years I think?

Beers in the battery are a bit more on gameday than non game days (i think). Jocks and jills is directly across the pedestrian bridge over 285. Only gets busy before or after a game but they do serve cheaper beer.

If you aren't walking then you have two options. Use one of the tailgate lots for a byob and food experience although that means you have to drive later on. Traffic is not bad leaving a game so don't let that sway you. It comes down to how many beers everyone is looking at consuming.

I personally take uber and go into the battery. You can walk around with beer and there is a lot to look at. Check the Roxy as well to see if any band you like is playing by chance. I don't like chancing a dui so uber is my choice (even though I love to tailgate) it's not worth the risk to me.

Terrapin taproom is another bar in the battery but you would have more fun in Live.

Older than that.

The one on 10th Street in Midtown was open in the early 90s. I graduated hs in '94 (damn I'm an old fart) and it was open when I was either a freshman or sophomore. So closer to 25 years? I don't remember if the one on 10th or the one at CNN was open first.
