Overview:
After Seabright, we decided we HAD to hit one more spot before cruising back over the hill. While there are a few pubs we could have checked out, as we had already eaten I figured it might be best to just go to a Brewery.
Chris’ Opinion:
I REALLY wanted to like this place more than I did. They have a really cool little tasting room and outdoor patio that allows dogs (and there were quite a few). The food is brought over from one of the other places in the complex (basically some warehouse/shop-type places.) The beer just wasn’t that good. We did tasters of everything they offered and it all just tasted so…thin. I liked what they were going for but they really just didn’t impress that much.

Karl’s Opinion:
It’s a tasting room, not a pub (it doesn’t claim to be one), so my comments will be on the beer. Not impressed…but I drank them anyway…and the French bulldog was very cool.
