Description
We brew unique beers, one barrel at a time

We also offer wines, hard ciders, a locally focused snack menu, and a generally laid back Wisconsin tavern vibe. In fact, the only thing we don’t offer are the answers to life’s greatest questions... although some say they can be found at the bottom of a glass.

Tap at One Barrel. Maybe 8oz into a goblet. Massive beige head on top of a black-brown body. Big roast coffee, chocolate aroma. Sweet, malt centered, kind of has that homebrewed unattenuated sugar thing going on. Pretty mild for 8.3%, I would’ve guessed about 6%. The coffee and the specialty malts cover up any brewing flaws. A pinch watery, not much depth, but drinkable.
