WHERE GOOD THINGS
COME TOGETHER
With stunning views of our brewing equipment, the taproom offers a great atmosphere to meet old friends and make new ones.
There’s room for groups large and small with flexible table and booth seating. If you love the great outdoors, you’ll love our dog-friendly deck and beer garden with access to the Gray’s Lake bike trail. Our taproom has a capacity of 155 and our beer garden has room for 350+ with plenty of bicycle parking. We also have a reservable private area adjacent to the taproom that holds up to 100. Give us a call for your next large gathering or party!
Enjoy some of the 36 beers on tap made right here, or take a 4-pack home with you. We also serve soft drinks and sports drinks. Our taproom doesn’t serve food, but you’re invited to bring your own! We even have menus of local restaurants that will deliver to you at the taproom. Plus there are often on-site food vendors. We host live music every Thursday evening and also every Friday night through the spring and summer.

Relax in the Beer Garden
What better way to enjoy one of our beers than in the great outdoors! Opened in 2017, our Beer Garden offers plenty of socially distanced seating with a large shaded area, as well as seating in the sun to keep you comfortable no matter the season. Step up to the outdoor bar and choose from a selection of our 12 most popular beers, or head inside to check out our full lineup (we have 36 beers to choose from in the taproom).
Getting to the Beer Garden is easy! It is located right off the Meredith bicycle trail just south of Gray’s Lake Park and is a favorite destination of bicyclists, runners, and those just out for a stroll around the lake. We’re also dog friendly (Beer Garden only), so feel free to bring your pup along! Open as long as the weather allows, we hope you stop by for a pint soon!
Dog Policy
- Other than service animals, dogs are not permitted in the building at any time.
- Dogs are only allowed on the deck and in the beer garden.
- Dogs unfortunately may not access the deck or beer garden through the building. Please access from the north via the bike trail and adjoining path to the beer garden. You may also park at the east overflow lot and head around back to the beer garden (your dog will love the walk!)
- Dogs must be on a leash at all times and maintained under reasonable control.
