We are passionate about making high quality products for a wide variety of audiences. Our beers cross a wide spectrum of tastes trying to satisfy both avid craft beer enthusiasts and customers newer to the scene. Most of the beer production is currently flowing through the taproom. We are looking to satisfy a few local accounts in the very near future. Aside from a few core established recipes there is plenty of room for creativity and continuous product development.
The distillery production is working to bring spirits in the direction that craft beer has been going by producing innovative, very high quality sipable spirits. The head brewer will also work closely with the owner/distiller on the overlap of the two sides of the business to create unique and tasty beverages.
