## About

The concept for Bait House Brewery arose from the property’s long-standing use as a bait and tackle shop. Fondly remembered by many Sandusky fisherman, Herb’s Bait Shop served the community for almost seventy-five years. Now in loving tribute Herb’s stands Sandusky’s first microbrewery, Bait House Brewery. Our Brewery draws on Sandusky’s long-time connection not only with the fishing industry, but maritime life generally. Completely handmade, each style of our beer will delight those going out for a day’s fishing, and fine craft beer lovers alike. Remember, there’s “Nothin’ Fishy About It!”
