Downtown PTown, just a few minutes from the river and bridge over the river. Main room has a modern feel, brewery equipment visible, behind the glass. Big windows out to the street. More dining space up stairs via an elevator as well as further up in the rooftop top bar and dining area with some pretty great views...yes I did just say "roof top bar and dining area". I didn't try the food, but a friends burger and fries looked pretty darn tasty.
I enjoyed a fresh and tasty "Thunder Boomer", one of their hazy IPAs on draft, it was mighty tasty and purchased a similar brew in cans to go.
Worthy brews, friendly staff, great room....roof deck for the good weather times...all adds up to a fine place to visit....especially with a date (for those rooftop views...)

Corner storefront location with open glass walls and modern minimalist feel. Long straight bar opposite the entrance with tables about the remainder of the room and on the second floor and a few on the sidewalk patio. 10 beers on tap, I had the IPA which was very nice. Friendly bartender. I did not try the food.

I've made one visit the week they opened and then the covid hit the fan.
Decor is stark and modern - black and white and windows and an oddly appropriate homage to Zeus behind the bar.
Brew equipment is visible up a few steps from the bar, 12 -15 tables, a 10 seat bar and optional roof top seating is available but may require a reservation.
My beers were ok at best - a pale ale that lacked depth and balance and a milk stout that seemed concentrated - you could cut it 50% with water and it would have still been a sweet stout. Uber thick and cloyingly sweet.
So..... they get a pass on beer for week 1.
Staff was friendly and supremely uniformed about the beer and seemed eager for any general beer info I could share.
My pizza was very good ( Margarita) and prices reasonable though I hear they have kicked the menu up a notch or two so must return and maybe edit this review in the future.
* Revisited 1 year later to find a much larger menu of Italian offerings and many patrons not drinking beer. From the ones I tried, there is good reason for that despite happy hour pricing.
* Score adjusted 10-'25 - food is very good and beer is much better on my last few visits.
