Enjoy the Buzz

Our taproom was built in the 1960s as an auto showroom for Volkswagen so it features a 180-degree glass facade that allows our guests to enjoy the downtown skyline and watch the cars buzz by. We wanted to stay true to the original design so you’ll see mid-century modern decor throughout. Plush couches, textured walls and quartz countertops help accentuate the eclectic vibe. During the day, the taproom is flooded with natural light, but at night, it takes on a completely different vibe of city lights and sexy ambiance.

Trees of Green #6 is our latest West Coast IPA, pouring crystal clear with a radiant golden hue. This batch is heavily dry hopped with Rakau, Nelson Sauvin, and Idaho 7. Rakau brings lush stone fruit character, ripe apricot, peach, and hints of plum, layered with a subtle resinous edge. Nelson Sauvin delivers its signature white wine-like intensity, with bright gooseberry, crushed grape, and touches of passionfruit and fresh herbs. Idaho 7 rounds everything out with bold citrus and tropical depth, juicy tangerine, candied orange peel, pineapple, and a thread of piney resin.
