First brewery of the day. Nice concept here with the brewery sharing open space with two restaurants. All brick and steel beams, long L shaped bar. Small patio out front. Great service, flights available. Beer was the big surprise, nothing lacking here. Recommended!

I’ve been in here a couple times over the years.
They’ve got a pretty nice selection of beer.
I’m vaguely recall having a sandwich there years ago, but not enough to include the food in this review.
The place medium in size, they share the building and the space/facilities to some extent with a coffee shop next door. Seating at the bar, as well as tables and high-tops scattered throughout.
The outdoor patio seating is popular when the weather is pleasant.

Small brewery, new building with interior made to look old/industrial. Has character. Friendly service and decent beer prices, indoor/outdoor seating. They had 9 draft selections, one was cider, when we visited. Beer was OK but I thought their Coffeehouse Stout was pretty good. Certainly worth a visit, with a coffeehouse and sandwich shop as part of the venue there is something for everyone.

Small but intimate brewery, with decent table seating, and good service. Relatively limited selection and ok beers, excellent pub fare, very good service.

Visited on a Friday afternoon. The taproom has an attractive modern look, as a three-part one-building combo brewery, coffeehouse, and sandwich shop. Beer prices are good, somewhat lower than average for the area. I got a 4x5 oz flight with a IPA, nitro coffee stout, amber lager, and cherry wheat sour. All of the beers were decent but not above-average. I didn't try any food. Overall, I'd be happy to return but won't make it a priority.
