Bead & Brewery Logo

Most likely the smallest brewery you will ever visit. However, it's not the size of the brewery that matters, but rather how you use it! At Bread and Brewery we have two goals: First is to create good beer at a reasonable price; Second is to challenge everyone and how they view the term “waste”. If you visit our brewery, you will notice that nearly every aspect of the brewery has been re-used/upcycled and saved from being thrown into landfill
