Craft beer excellence. That's this brewery in a nutshell. They serve some of the most eclectic, unique brews in the city and they don't conserve on gravity beers that are larger than life upon sipping.

Inside you'll be greeted by the micro stills, garage doors that leave plenty of sunshine in, patio with 4 bench tables, and a side room for private events. The staff is knowledgeable and inviting.

Here I tried the 10.3% chocolate black barleywine, known as the Celestial Death. The nose literally smelled like Cocoa Puffs. Mouthfeel and finish was very smooth and malty, expressing out as a wheaty flair of raisin, coconut, and plenty of cocoa. Terrific drink!

Delicious brunch food that was played well! The Ciders were unique and the best Ciders I have ever tasted. Service was amazing-so kind and attentive, thank you Dori. Definitely returning.

Really enjoyed the beer here. The lager was light and crisp with a good aftertaste. Also liked the Tripel Belgian-style beer. Paul was super helpful and a great local guide too!

Stopped by for a beer with the wife. Great selection of craft draft beers and some bottled beers for those who want to take beer home.

Nice outdoor seating area, and they are doing food paring events often.

Enjoyed the kettle corn popcorn and friendly patrons at the counter.  The beer tender was nice and helpful.

We love this brewery! We brought our dogs and sat on the patio (no dogs inside). Beer is great and the bartender was super friendly.
