Bdawg says: This brewery is set in the midst of an industrial park.  As you enter, there is a small seating area and bar which opens into a larger area which houses the brewery, vats, and aging barrels.  (They obviously specialize in barrel aged beers.)  This area is also set up with tables and you can sit right in the brewery area.  Kind of a neat and unique idea.    No food, but they do have food trucks on the weekend.  The beer is above average.
