Bent Bine Brew Co

I visited Bent Bine yesterday while exploring the peninsula. They've got a clean but eclectic taproom with beer stuff, music stuff, sports stuff, and miscellaneous art. There's a nice bar and several big group tables, and the brewery itself is attached to the taproom with a window into the facility.

When I was there, they had 9 of their own beers plus two guest beers on tap, along with a seltzer of their own as well. Styles were pretty straightforward: two IPAs, a lager, hefeweizen, amber, red, porter, an "abbey ale" that was pretty reminiscent of a dubbel to me, and a peanut butter & jelly beer. The Laga Lager was my favorite, and the porter, while sweet, I also enjoyed. The abbey ale was true to style, if not exactly to my taste, and the IPAs were probably the weakest of the beers I sampled. Overall, not bad, but quality definitely varied with style.

Service at the bar was friendly and knowledgeable (the bartender was an owner, I believe).
