Gordon Biersch Brewpub / Tyson’s Corner VA
I require sustenance! Fetch me a Schwarzbier post haste! And some potstickers, southwestern eggrolls and garlic fries, too.

I convinced my wife to go see Thor with me last night, and we stopped in at Gordon Biersch in the mall for some apps and a beer before the movie.
My quick movie review of Thor? I guess it was much more sci-fi / fantasy than I expected. I like superhero movies, but I prefer my heroes to stay on earth, at least most of the time. The story was good – I enjoyed the juxtaposition of the Norse God of War landing in a small New Mexico town. The special effects were great, and I love the way they set up all these Marvel movies for The Avengers movie next year.
Before the movie, I had a nice big Gordon Biersch Schwarzbier, which I assume was brewed at the restaurant. The Schwarzbier is a dark lager, but it doesn’t have a heavy taste or density. It’s got a slightly nutty, coffee flavor to it, and I found it to be quite enjoyable.
