Ska Brewing Company

Top choice


Big on flavor and variety, these are the best handcrafted beers in town. Although the small, friendly tasting-room bar was once mainly a production facility, over the years it’s steadily climbed in popularity. Today it is usually jam-packed with friends meeting for an after-work beer.

Despite the hype, the place remains surprisingly laid-back and relaxed. Ska does weekly BBQs with live music and free food; call for dates – they are never fixed.
