Nice to see a local brewry on the Island, cute tasting room set up. Would have loved too see some IPAs on the menu when we visited.
Tasting flights only due to their licensing restrictions. Hopefully they can stream line their flights and have better board/labels.
Overall worth the visit to support local

The drinks are served from a can, rather than a keg or on draught. The flights we had were nearly warm. The beer was plain, and the sodas aren't carbonated, and of dubious flavour. Sadly the least enjoyable brewery visit I've had.

The seating situation is just okay. The staff members were super lovely though. We suggest trying a sample at the Saturday market before you commit to a visit here.

The beer might be decent but I'll never know. Made the honest mistake of pulling into the driveway on a Sunday when I thought it was Saturday and was greeted with a scowl from who I presume was the owner. I was very polite and apologetic and got nothing but cold hostility back. I get it if you only want to be open for 4 hours a week but if you're that triggered by potential customers showing up at the wrong time maybe close your gate.

The beer tasted decent. The lady slinging the stuff at the market did not seem to be enjoying herself, nor did she seem keen to sell me any beer. Perhaps she was having an off day, but as a first impression, I was not inclined to support this business. Too bad, as I prefer to support small businesses, but customer service is an art that is more rare than tasty beer...

Cold and great beer for a sunny and hot day 🥵!, you can drink tap beer and taste onsite, also you can buy canned ones to go!, the owners are so friendly!, definitely if you want something local and refreshing this is a great place!

Fun local brewery. Super cool owners. Liked the logo on the merch, and left with a new hat!

What a wonderful place! We ventured to the brewery during a recent stay on Hornby, and I promise if you are reading this you will NOT be disappointed! Great products, especially the Cucumber Lime Seltzer! Try a flight, make a choice on any of the beverages and you will not be disappointed! Even better than the products are the owners, who are two of the nicest people we've ever encountered!

Had a great time testing out some local beers. Happy it’s on this side of the island - close enough to walk! Delicious beer, great host, awesome service. The artwork on the cans by Dana Statham is beautiful. Happy to visit again next time we’re here!!
