What's on Tap

Poured right from the bright beer tank into your glass, you can count on our tap rotation to have 11 meticulously crafted beers, so you can quench your thirst with brews ranging from citrusy and bright to malty and robust. We brew a variety of styles in-house in our small 14 BBL system – from classic lagers to ales and IPAs – all of which can be enjoyed in our welcoming taproom or with a meal in our full-service restaurant. We don’t bottle or can our beers, so we invite you to sip our exclusive beer on-site or take a growler home with you to enjoy later.
