Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Yard House approaches beer as a volume and variety play: 110 taps, a house flight, and a build-your-own four-pack. The draft list spans IPAs, lagers, stouts, sours, and Belgian styles, with a dedicated zero-alcohol section. Named pours like Bell's Two Hearted and Chimay Blue give anchor points, but the real draw is the freedom to assemble your own tasting.
- What should I order?
- Start with the House Beer Flight to sample six house brews, then move to a Build Your Own Four-Pack to explore the 110-tap range. Bell's Two Hearted IPA and Chimay Blue Grande Réserve offer reliable contrasting picks.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Drinkers who like choice and comparison shopping will appreciate the 110-tap selection and flight-building options. Those seeking non-alcoholic alternatives can find several named zero-proof beers.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The 110-tap draft system and the ability to build your own four-pack set this program apart from standard beer lists. The inclusion of a six-beer house flight and a separate zero-alcohol section adds structural range.
