We’ve got a public service announcement for all of our beer lovers out there—Montgomery has some bomb brews. Whether you live in our capitol city or not, these Montgomery breweries and taprooms should be a must-not-miss addition to your summer bucket list. So get out and treat yourself to a taste of these delicious craft beers.

1. Common Bond Brewers

Walk into Common Bond Brewer’s rustic brick-and-beam style taproom, and you’ll be met with a room stocked full of cold flavorful ales sure to satisfy after a long hot summer day. Common Bond has four flagship beverages that stay on the taproom menu at all times along with their seasonal favorite. Their current summer seasonal flavor is strawberry wheat, with bold flavors reminiscent of strawberry shortcake.

Founders Andrew McNally and Tim Doles were inspired to open the place through their belief that great relationships and a good community can be forged over a few shared pints. They’ve done a great job of proving that to be true, but go ahead and experience it for yourself.
