1. Old Majestic Brewing Co.

Old Majestic is the perfect traditional brewery experience. They’ve got new beers released every week or so, making it hard to pick a “best-seller”, but this week’s big-seller is the Mumbai Blurry Curry, a cream ale served over a peach-lime purée.

What to expect: a lively crowd watching sports & playing corn hole! Plus live music on weekends.

Braided River Brewing is actually releasing a new beer today, making it the perfect time to go visit! The new beer is called “Fall’s Fall” and perfectly encapsulates the fall spirit, trust me, we got to try it! Braided River is one of those staple breweries, with their most popular being the “Hoppy by Nature” which is fresh and light for an IPA.

3. Iron Hand Brewing

Iron Hand Brewing combines a few of my favorite things: historic buildings, great beer, and good conversation! The brewery is housed in an old Baptist Church that’s since been refurbished into a fun gathering spot and brewery, hosting Dad Joke Bingo on Wednesdays, Trivia Thursdays, and All-Day Happy Hour on Sunday.

Most popular beer: Rebecca’s First Amber Ale
What to expect: A relaxing, homey group including cushy couches and board games abound.
