Great IPAs that transcend label boundaries, brown cow stout is delicious and smooth as all get out. Consistently seen lagers, saisons, sours, some wild ales, all of which failed to disappoint, with flying colors. This is a well-rounded brewery with an intellectually curious and super approachable brewmaster. Expect big things to come for FCB!

Small tasting room in old brick factory building also occupied by Stubborn Beauty. Little service bar and a few tables about the room. Only 4 beers on tap, not to write home about.

Had heard a few positive things, but was very disappointed. Only had 3 beers on, and all tasted very similar, which is to say not very good. Service was poor also, barely said hello and didn't try to really talk to us. The one down the hall is much better. I hope they improve as they get a few more batches under their belts.

Great new brewery just down the building from Stubborn Beauty, this is a must stop. We had 5 of their 6 beers (the Ginger Saison was kicked) and all five were very good! The brewer (unfortunately I didn't get his name) was happy to talk about his beers while his parents helped out pouring. We can't wait to go back, definitely a trip worth taking to visit.
