Best Wings: The Hay Merchant

The crispy, crunchy wings at this funky craft beer haven are so crazy good, you may just want to order 60 of them. Well it’s a good thing you can...or you can go for a more reasonable half-dozen, dozen or 30-count. The jumbo numbers come smothered in your choice of sauce — classic, buttery hot sauce; sweet and tangy stout bbq; Vietnamese-inspired caramelized fish sauce; and thick, creamy and wacky-in-a-good-way PB&J. Snack on some alongside a hoppy IPA and wash, rinse, repeat.
