American Brewing Company

Great service and good beer. It has a nice relaxed atmosphere. Dog friendly. They have a very light menu but allow you to bring in your own food. One of the better breweries in the area.

Something about walking down an alleyway and through another building to get to this tasting room makes you feel like you are sneaking into a speakeasy. The friendly bartender went out of her way to greet me right as I walked in through the door. Great giant pretzels. Cramped seating, but in a cozy way nestled between the giant warm fermenters and the shuffle board that's a little too cramped to play. Solid beer too. Close enough to the ferry that you can grab a beer here if you missed the last boarding. Cycling Cicerone approved!

Don't allow minors, so myself and baby were politely asked to leave. Never in the dozens of breweries that I've been to have I encountered this rule. I had the breakaway IPA I in a bottle and it was subpar. I was hoping to have it on draught to make sure it wasn't an old bottle, but can't speak to the quality of the beer. Their beer might be great, but that's a stupid rule when up the street are several breweries that have kids allowed.

American Brewing is a local place for me. My wife and I go there every once in a while. Great beers and people. No food or we would be there a lot more. Go there grab a beer and enjoy!

When you finally find this place, you won't be dissapointed. Great Atmosphere & Really good beer. They even encourage bringing your own food! Pets are allowed... what more could you ask for.
