The Continental introduces draft list

Stephen Starr's Continental (138 Market St.), whose relevance to Philly's dining scene we've discussed here on Meal Ticket, has always been known for its martini list, but the restaurant has been getting into the beerier swing of things lately by introducing an eight-tap draft system. Check out the current lineup, which features local craft choices from the likes of Yards, Sly Fox and Dogfish Head, after the jump. (We're told Yuengling and Amstel Light will be the mainstays, with the rest of the lineup rotating regularly.) They're also offering flights for $9.50.
Yuengling Lager 16oz $4.50
Amstel Light 16oz $5.50
Yard's Philadelphia Pale Ale 16oz $6.00
Sly Fox Pikeland Pilsner 12oz $4.50
Dogfish Head 60 min IPA 10oz $6.00
N. Coast Brother Thellonius Abby Ale 10oz $7.00
Brooklyn Weisse 16oz $6.00
Bell's Double Cream Stout 10oz $5.00

i agree with rascal... i don't like supporting a monopolizing corporation anyway.
short pours on 6% beers? maybe they are afraid the amstel crowd will get out of hand??
[...] a happy hour — until last Monday, when they quietly rolled one out. (Perhaps to get some use of their new draft system.) While the long-running martini bar’s kitschy, shoutout-to-Shag phosphorescent lounge-lizard [...]
