Nice new brewpub located in downtown Saint Joseph. The building dates back to 1900, and served as a food storage facility. They had 12 beers on tap. Open seven days a week.
A unique feature: they will smoke beer to order, by injecting hickory smoke into a glass chamber and bringing it tableside. The smoke flavor infuses itself into the beer during the process creating the first known Live Smoked Beer.
BEER:
Ginger the Blonde Ale -3.50
Perfectly acceptable blonde ale, medium body, low hop bitterness
Nice level of maltiness and sweetness, could use a higher level of malt; acceptable Oktoberfest
From the Thumb Porter (Nitro) -5.00
Malty and roasted goodness, outstanding example of the style
Sunrise Breakfast Stout -4.25
Hearty, robust, roasted malt character; dry, crisp, flavor, no hop bitterness
