The Double Standard
Jeff put 2424 Telegraph on his Oakland food list and his East Bay map, starred it, then gave the bar five stars in May 2017 without a word of explanation. Nobody else has written about it.
Why go
Jeff put 2424 Telegraph on his Oakland and East Bay food list, on his East Bay map and in his starred places, then gave the bar five stars in May 2017 with no text attached.1 No critic has published on it and the bar runs no website, so there is no drink named here and no room described.

Verdict
listed — Jeff saved it three ways and rated it five stars in May 2017, and wrote nothing. No writer has been read on the bar and it publishes no site we could find, so there is no drink and no room to describe. Listed, and it should move the moment one source lands.
