Came on a snowy night; there were only two other patrons at the time. It's all one large room - a lot of tables, booths and chairs to sit in, ample space for quite a few people. Nice bar area. You can see all the brewing equipment through massive glass windows. Looks like there might be some outside/patio area but inaccessible due to weather.
**This place was a bit hard to find. It's kind of in the back of an industrial/business complex and isn't terribly clearly marked, especially if you're going by GPS. There IS a sign for the brewery on the main road but it's a bit subtle so keep an eye out for it and drive to the back and you'll find it.**
Beer was very good. Excellent stout and porter - not necessarily unique in flavors but extremely good in the styles. A good IPA and farmhouse ale, too. We did try an Amber Ale and it seemed to have gone bad. Perhaps a dirty tap or... something, it was no good. Everything else was good and clean so we aren't discounting them too much as a whole.
Owners were nice. You could tell they were a bit upset with the weather but were still nice. They "allowed" us to pick the beers we wanted to drink for our flight so perhaps that is not always an option. They had a football game over the speakers via radio on their phone.
