Year-round
House lager, west-coast IPA, hazy IPA, brown ale, oat stout. The backbone — always on, always fresh.
- Five permanent lines
- Lager takes six weeks; we give it six weeks
Independent · Family-run since 2014
Beer made with intent.
A 10-barrel brewhouse, a taproom that feels like the corner pub, and twelve rotating lines brewed for the way we actually drink.

Started in a garage. Stayed independent.
Two of us, one all-grain kit, and a garage that smelled permanently of boiling wort. Ten years on, the kit is bigger and the garage is a taproom — but every batch still gets tasted by the people whose names are on the lease. No distribution deals, no shortcuts, no beer we wouldn't drink ourselves.
- 100% independently owned — no brewing group behind us
- Spent grain goes to a cattle farm 20 minutes away
- Tours every Saturday, 1pm + 3pm, $25 with a flight
From the regulars
5 out of 5 stars
“Booked the taproom for a 60-person rehearsal dinner. Easy to deal with, generous pours, and the hazy converted my beer-skeptic in-laws.”

04Taproom rules, such as they are
Common questions
Do you serve food?+
A short kitchen menu — skewers, pretzels, a rotating special — plus a standing invitation to bring your own pizza in. Plates and napkins on the counter.
Kids and dogs?+
Both, until 8pm. There's a crate of board games, a water bowl station, and a strict no-judgment policy on juice-box negotiations.
How do tours work?+
Saturdays at 1pm and 3pm, about 45 minutes, $25 including a four-beer flight. Book through the form — groups of 8+ should email ahead.
Can I buy beer to take home?+
Cans of the year-rounders and whatever seasonal is on, plus growler fills of anything pouring. The pilot batches are taproom-only — that's the point of them.
Private hire?+
The whole taproom on Mondays and Tuesdays, or the mezzanine any night for 30 or fewer. Email events@ and we'll send the one-page rate sheet.
Saturday tours. $25. Beer included.
Forty-five minutes from grain to glass, ending at the bar with a flight of four.
Tours run rain or shine — the tanks are indoors
