Drinks & Nightlife
Amazing brewery. A little bit of a drive, but worth it. This brewery is kid-friendly! I recommend not eating inside... Instead, go directly through the brewery to get to the back patio where are the fun is. You can order from a limited food menu outside (plus beer of course) and find a spot on the patio to relax and eat.
