Modern feeling taproom right off Main Street in downtown Barrington. Just opened in June. Dogs are welcome.
Brothers William and James started homebrewing shortly after turning 21, and later attended the Siebel Institute of Brewing Technology in Chicago. The name Flesk comes from a castle in Ireland that their father visited long ago. The boys grew up hearing stories about the castle and the ghosts that roamed the grounds.
Hours: Mon-Thu 3pm-10pm, Fri 3pm-12am, Sat 12pm-12am, Sun 12pm-10pm.
