The Quarterdeck - Tall Stories and Taller Beverages

The Quarterdeck is the source of news, community, and history in Des Moines, served with craft beer, wine, coffee, and a snack, and some say the owner has a pretty good working knowledge of the Maury Island Incident. 

The Quarterdeck was also the site of the 2021 appearance of a mysterious monolith - see media coverage here in the Waterland blog. A few days later, two sixth grade students alleged they cracked the alien code; see coverage here.
