## About

Packinghouse opened in 2010, four friends brewing and serving craftbeer from a tiny tasting room with a 10-tap portable kegerator, pouring 4oz tastes only.
Since then we've doubled our floorspace, chucked the kegerator, started pouring pints, and have won three medals at the yearly Great American Beer Festival for our flagship Riley's Irish Red and Nighthawk Rye Pale Ale.
We keep the tap list balanced, always offering a selection ranging from our crisp Belltower Blonde to the hoppy with our rotating 'House IPA, the sweet malt of Riley's to the silky coffee/chocolate Black Beauty Stout. And several small batch and specialty brews throughout the year.
Keep an eye on social media for our "Pint Nights" with local live music and various local food vendors
