Crossroads Arts District · Est. 2015

The Taproom

Beer brewed steps from where you drink it. Big patio, easy crowd, and a bar where the bartender remembers your last pour.

Our home

512 E 18th.
Find us easy.

We've poured from the same Crossroads corner since 2015. Easy walk from the streetcar, easy bike, easy ride-share, easy parking on the side streets. Most regulars walked in once on a recommendation and came back the next week without thinking about it.

Why people come back

What you'll find inside

Open patio

Dog-friendly, kid-friendly, sun-on-your-face friendly. The patio is where Crossroads meets first-timers and finds out we're not pretentious.

Brewhouse views

The fermenters sit right behind the bar. Watch the next batch breathing while you sip the last one.

Family welcome

We love kids in the taproom — well-supervised, well-fed, well-behaved kids. (Read the blog for the full pitch.)

Walk-ins always

No reservations needed. Big group? Shoot us a heads-up so we can save the space — but most weeks, just walk in.
