Really good beer, inviting atmosphere and great views.
I’m not very adventurous when it comes to beer. But there was alot to choose from, including seasonal drinks. Good drinks, nice bartenders and relaxing atmosphere.

The beer and setting are great! I may be in the minority but the new wood chipped area is not wheelchair friendly. The only other seating is in the sun but would like to be under the tent. A flat path to the tent area would be nice.

I stopped here yesterday as part of a brewery tour I was doing with my boyfriend and friend.
I tried Prizm and tried a sample of That Veronica Vaughn which was also solid. The beer tender was nice and helpful and also recommended beers to try at our other stops. I love the fact that it’s located at the marina and would’ve drank outside if the weather wasn’t bad yesterday. I definitely want to check out their other locations too in the future.
