Summer is here, and that means we are experiencing all the classics that come with it: sunburn, sunglasses, and sunny days on the patio.
We recommend pairing all that sunshine with a session beer. Session beers are typically refreshing, highly drinkable, and low-ABV (alcohol by volume). They’re particularly enjoyable while taking an afternoon off work—trust us, we’ve tested it.
Get your summer beers by ordering beer to go (available online or in person), or make a taproom/patio reservation now (reservations required). Both options are open 12-10pm daily.
Here’s a look at the light and refreshing beers on our current tap list:
