"I like this spot. Stopped by here for lunch today while One-Wheeling with a friend on the W&OD trail. You can get to it directly from the trail which is awesome. "

Saminda

"Great Service, wonderful atmosphere, good beers, ciders and wines, plus the food was more than delicious, but also beautifully presented and a lovely blend of flavors. "

Tracy

"Oh man, what an awesome brewery in Farifax. Great customer service and a huge place, indoors and outdoors. Wide variety of beers and food. I strongly recommend."

Oscar

"Come for the delicious beer and stay for the amazing food! I come pretty regularly and always have great food. The biscuits and gravy are some of the best I’ve eaten so think about coming on a Sunday if you want a casual brunch. Beer speaks for itself but I especially like the IPAs and the Pilsner."

Jacob

"If pictures could say a thousand word’s I have one ‘Yum!’. What a great stop today. We hit the Caboose for lunch and a beer 🍺 or two 🍻 and had a wonderful time. My caps off to the chef and two thumbs up to the brew. Great food, great beer, and friendly service."

Mike

"Among the best breweries that I’ve tried both the atmosphere and food."

John

"For a brewery!?, the food is amazing! Completely unexpected. As a foodie I was more than impressed. Locally sourced and from scratch offerings. I had artesian pork bellies from a Maryland farm and Mountain Valley cheddar cheese with fig jam, honey, and cornichon pickles. And paired with delicious beer!"

Meet our Altbier, a copper-red ale with a bold personality. We've amped up the bitterness to create a clean, snappy finish that cuts through its cozy, malty core. It’s got all the toasted, caramel-like goodness you'd expect, balanced by a confident hop presence. Fermented with a traditional German ale yeast for a smooth and sophisticated character, this is an old-world style brewed for a modern palate.
