Go down the alley to the left of the building and head for the door at the end. There you will find Beervana; a magical place full of great beer and some super cool folks.

If you're in an alley, you're SURE you're LOST, and you see this door, you're heading in the right direction (well, to Lake Effect, anyway).

Great beers! They do growler fills and they sell some of their bottles and cans at the brewery. Sometimes they have special, small batch bottles available for purchase. Bottle shop & brewery only.

Great local brewery! Tour is free and you often can sample unreleased beer. Love their sours and white beers, depending on the season

Great beer, but note that it’s not an actual beer hall: pick-up only.

No tap room yet but they do let you sample. Small, friendly place.
