Excellent beers!
A cozy informal friendly place to have great beer. This place has a board full of beers to choose from. Everything from the Quiet Man Irish Red to my new favorite Black Mamba, a coffee/ cherry stout that goes down easily. A few IPA's and even root beer are here. Barrel aged beers,Hefeweisse, Pale Ale, Oatmeal stout. I suggest you try a flight and pick your favorite.

Interesting Little Place
We stopped when in town for other purposes because we like to check out breweries - large and small. This one definitely fell on the small side. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. You can tell it is a small craft brewery with no frills. The bar in the location that we visited was small -- like maybe 8-10 seats. There were a few communal tables and games that you can indulge in. It felt like it was an adolescent in puberty. Good things to come, but you gotta get through that awkward stage. The beer here was good. Not super outta this world creative, but good. I definitely say they are on the right track and have great things in their future.
