Reviews
Great local brewery with an amazing staff. They often have live music and amazing drink options. Our group loves this location for get together. Always friendly and clean
Brewery with a wide selection of house craft beers that range from IPAs, Ales, Stouts and everything else under the sun. The cocktails were delightful and they even had a wine selection for the wife. Super friendly and well educated staff. That’s for a great time!
Came here after an evening of visiting Elkton’s other breweries and I wish I’d started, and ended my night here.
With amazing live music, like, actually really good. To Drew’s (the bartender) incredibly and beyond friendly service, there was nothing but perfection.
Drew gave me multiple free samplers so I could try, beyond my flight, basically every beer on tap and vouched for me with a server from the tavern across the street so I could get food even after the kitchen closed. Drew also slid multiple stickers throughout the night and was always available to chat about beer or local Elkton trivia.
The beer itself is exceptional with a variety to rival the best breweries and quality to top them. Would, that I could, spend all day here so that I could really taste and appreciate, in full, each beer on tap.
The brewery itself has three distinct seating area with a small dining room up front, and long u-shaped bar, and a lounge styled area in the back.
Honestly, this place could do no wrong while I was here. The peple were friendly, the employees were grand, and the beer was worth coming back for again. This is the place the locals close down, not because it’s open but because it’s good. Come to Elkton and you HAVE to come here.
Pretty cool little brewery. They even had some people come in and serve barbecue food for a fee, but the barbecue was really good and the people are really nice.
Nice brewery with very wide selection of beers. Not all IPA’s and sours that you find at so many breweries these days. I had a nice stout and brown ale and the friends inside said the IPA’s are very good as well. Bartender was a great addition.
