Did someone say Ramen Sunday? This gem of a brewery is tucked away in the Baker hood, and is brewer owned + operated—so you know it’s good! 🍻 There’s an ever changing variety of beer releases that are brewed and canned right on site, and most days during the week you can snag some noms from a food truck parked out front (hey, @ninjaramenmobile)!
Pro tip: Keep your eyes peeled for the ever‑so‑often ‘Moment In Time’ dinner series hosted in partnerships with local chefs and restaurants.
