We visited the small taproom in downtown Grayslake, but they will soon open a larger brewery just down the street, allowing them to double their capacity.  

Hours are: Mon-Thur: 5pm-10pm, Fri: 4pm-Midnight, Sat: Noon-Midnight, Sun: Noon-6pm.

We met Adam, the assistant brewer, who was very friendly and knowledgeable. They had six beers on tap.

BEER:

Lite It Cream Ale - 3.50

• Super light-bodied beer; almost no hop bitterness

Still Single Belgian Ale - 4.00

• Medium-bodied ale; citra hops assist in balancing the flavor profile

Mo-Wheat Wheat Ale - 4.25

• Medium-bodied, big on wheat malt; slight hop bitterness provides nice balance

Short Handed New England IPA - 3.75

• Nicely balanced IPA (50 IBU), Highly drinkable

Tamarand Gold Belgian Tripel - 4.50

• Big-bodied and bold tripel; excellent example of the style

Sin Bin Stout - 4.25

• Bold with coffee notes; body is a mouthful
