A local favorite! Brewery + eatery, this place offers a great selection of local craft beer as well as great American food. Grab a bite paired with a crisp & refreshing beer while you're here! You'll often see the "Straight to Ale" beers at many local grocery store. My personal favorite is the "Monkeynaut IPA".
