There were 28 beers on tap, and we wished we had more time to try them all. This is the best brewpub we have ever visited.

FOOD:
The Beer Hall menu is divided into sections: Vegetables, Meat and Cheese, Bar Snacks, Sandwiches, Large Plates, and Barbecue. Based on descriptions and the rave reviews from the party seated next to us, the food is incredible. We tried the Ricotta Gnocchi, (shallot, garlic, dill, chive, parmesan, and black pepper), and the Chopped Salad (romaine, mozzarella cheese, picholine olive, cherry tomato, garbanzo bean, soppressata, and herb vinaigrette), both were excellent.
Upstairs is the Brewer’s Table, offering a chef-driven experience pairing exceptional food with exemplary beer. Hours are Wed-Thu: 5pm-10pm, Fri-Sat: 5pm-11pm
