Can I get a tour of the brewery?

Absolutely, as long as Daniel or Nate aren't swamped. It's a cozy setup, nothing massive, but they'll happily show you around. Nate has a known weakness for cookies—bring some and watch the magic happen.

What's the deal with dogs? (Pet Policy)

We love dogs and want them here, but we're sticking our necks out to make it work. Well-behaved pups only, and yes, we enforce the rules:

• Good manners required. No aggression or nonstop barking. Not everyone is here for dog cuddles while sipping a pint, so please be considerate.
• Leash at all times, everywhere on the property. No exceptions. We'll remind you politely once or twice—after that, it's time to head out.

Can we bring the kids?

Yes! We're family-friendly all the way. Kids are welcome, we have treats and games for them, and our own little chaos agents are often on site. Just a couple of simple rules:

• Well-behaved kids are golden. No screaming, yelling, or sprinting through the taproom or patio. Same standards you'd use at a nice restaurant apply here.
• Keep an eye on them. The patio is relaxing and the beer is tasty, but we're not a daycare. Parents stay in charge.

Do you have food?

We've got you covered in a few ways:

• Light snacks always available.
• Awesome food vendors here every day we're open. Check Instagram for the current lineup or visit our Food Menu page.
• Feel free to bring your own food or order delivery. More food means happier beer drinking—we're all for it.

Growlers or Crowlers to go?

You know it:

• Fresh 32oz Crowlers from our machine.
• 64oz growlers available for purchase.
• Bringing your own? It needs to be plain with no other brewery logos. Ours are inexpensive—just grab one here and skip the hassle.

Smoking allowed?

Nope. Not at all.

Outdoor seating is great, but smoke affects everyone around you. No smoking of any kind on the property.  The back parking lot is a great place for this.  Thanks for understanding.

Got sports on TV?

We used to avoid the sports bar thing, but we've evolved. Three TVs in the taproom, ready for whatever game you want. Just ask the beertender and they'll get it on the screen. Cheers!
