I finally got around to dropping in at Halcyon again yesterday, now that they've been open for a while and have their feet under them. Everything had improved: they now have 10 of their own beers on plus a house-made seltzer, along with a couple guest beers and cider: two hazy IPAs, Kölsch, kellerbier, Pilsner, West Coast IPA, barleywine, matcha kumquat lager (!), and two rice lagers (one dry-hopped). The hazy IPA was quite good! Service was much improved, and they've got a kitchen now as well, with sandwiches and salads and hot dogs and stuff. I had the "okonomiyaki dog" which was definitely unique and quite good.

I visited Halcyon for the first time about a week ago; they are located in the old Naked City spot in Greenwood. When I visited, they had 13 beers on tap: 3 Halcyon-only brews, 6 collaborations, and 4 guest taps. Their solo beers are IPA, pale and Pilsner. Other styles mostly IPAs and lagers, one fruit sour and a guest porter round things out. I found the IPA and pale ale mostly unremarkable, though the pilsner grew on me; I did quite enjoy the Kellerbitter collaboration with Lowercase Brewing.
Taproom is industrial gray and white; the brewhouse is in full view in the taproom, which of course I always love. Service up at the bar was decent enough, although perhaps a little inattentive at times despite not being especially busy.
I will definitely visit Halcyon again, though, as they mature.
