About
Pub in beautiful, Hillsborough, NC, focused on seasonal beer & food. Free, live music on Friday and Saturday nights.

Mystery Brewing Company is the world's first seasonal only brewery, and our Public House reflects that in the beers on tap and food on the menu.

Our food and beer rotate consistently. We have core four beers that we release each season (four in spring, four in summer, etc..), as well as a handful of one-time brews we make just for fun! We guarantee there's a beer for everyone on tap. Similarly, our menu changes based on what ingredients we can get at the farmers markets, what's in season, and what pairs well with our beers at the time! It's always a little different, but always delicious!

Bottle at Salud. Almost a gusher, massive carbonaton. Clear maroon color, huge brown head. Aroma is roasty with light licorice. Taste explodes in your mouth like pop rocks, the carbonation is so high, whivh interferes with the otherwise roasty flavor.

7.1/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
22 oz. bottle. Violent gusher. Dark brown color, with a big, bubbly head. The aroma is caramel, peat, light smoke and a some notes of apples and cherries. Mellow, malty sweetness, and just a hint of some earthy hops. Light to medium body, silky, and smooth. This is a nice, easy drinking, flavorful, and interesting beer. A lot of complexity, especially considering the very low ABV.
