Taphouse is similar to Rock Bottom but has more of a hip type atmoshpere feeling.  It doesnt have the same setup as Rock Bottom does in the sense that it doesnt have many teelevisions.  It is more of a formal place to eat and have drinks but does have a great happy hour.  obviously the biggest upside of Taphouse is that variety of beers they have on tap.  They offer over 160 beers at all times on tap which makes it easily to find a good pairing to any kind of food you order.  The location is great in The Galleria located by Rock Bottom Brewery and across the street from California Pizza Kitchen.  The free parking garage allows for easy access to the restaurant without any headaches.
Overall, good place to meet up with friends for a few drinks to catch up or for a happy hour after work.
