Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Brewing Company stakes its reputation on German-style lagers and pilsners, a refreshingly narrow focus in a craft beer scene dominated by hops. The year-round lineup spans a GABF Gold-winning Helles, a 100% German-ingredient pilsner, and a rye-barrel-aged doppelbock. A session lager and a non-alcoholic option broaden the appeal without diluting the program's disciplined character.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Lager, a Helles that earned GABF Gold in 2021. For a crisper, more bitter profile, the TKR Pilsner uses 100% German ingredients. The Barrel Aged Sir Doppelbock, aged six months in rye barrels, is a slow-sipping winter warmer.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Lager purists and fans of traditional German brewing will find much to appreciate. Those seeking hop-forward styles should look elsewhere. The non-alcoholic Fermentation Without Representation offers a thoughtful option for designated drivers.
- When should I go?
- A visit in the warmer months aligns with seasonal offerings like the Buoyant Kolsch and Roaring Twenties Radler. Weekday afternoons may offer a quieter taproom experience.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Most pours run $5.50 for 10 oz, $7.50 for 16 oz, and $9.50 for 21 oz. The Barrel Aged Sir Doppelbock is priced at $9 for 10 oz.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- A family-owned brewery devoted to German-style lagers and pilsners, with many beers using German ingredients. The award-winning Lager and the slow-pour TKR Pilsner highlight a commitment to traditional techniques.
