About
Yards has been brewing Philly's beer since 1994. We’ve grown from a garage-sized operation in Manayunk all the way up to our current location at 500 Spring Garden Street in Northern Liberties. And we couldn't have done it without your support through the years. Our beers always have and always will be brewed, bottled, kegged, and canned for the hard working people of Philadelphia and beyond.

Tap bocktown. Big & black, nice lacing from a creamy head. Neutral aroma. Wew, from the start the taste is lots of whiskey, whiskey laced porter. What else can be said except if you want bourbon, go get a shot, don’t mix it with good porter, if I want boiler-maker, I’ll order a boiler-maker, go figger. Piss me off. Yes, if you didn’t guess it, bourbon whiskey is what this beer is all about. Bourbon is in yer face, not impressed - bullshit, exactly as stated, porter aged in bourbon soaked barrels, what else would you expect?

Draft at Barcade, 1/11/16. Light hop aroma with a bit of Pale malt. Clear gold with a small head and light lace. Tastes thin and watery, just a bit of fruity hop and a mild sweetness. Thin, over carbonated, and kinda dull with a slightly dry close. Reminds me of a mediocre version of a Session IPA, but since it's 5.7% it doesn't even have the low ABV excuse. Needs to be consumed in large gulps to allow the flavors to really come through. Even then, nothing to exciting happens here. Disappointing.

A clear golden ipa with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, nice biscuit malt with good resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, nice and smooth. In mouth, crisp biscuit malt with grassy floral hops, light grapefruit notes, light resinous character, nice. On tap at Jack Duggan, Terminal A, PHL.

Barren Hill: pours reddish with a white head. Aroma is a lot of cherries with aome malt. Taste is slightly sour. Not too sour though. Not really the most interesting beer out there. Not bad though.
