Switchback Brewing Co.
Switchback Brewing Company makes great beer in an unusual way. Switchback beer is left unfiltered and is carbonated 100% naturally in a special process using yeast. As a result, the flavors are complex and unique. Since its 2014 opening Switchback’s taproom has been a fun place to go and try new and flavorful beer. Head on over to 160 Flynn Ave to try some exciting beers today!

Citizen Cider gives all the brewery energy but with crisp, regionally made cider. Their ciders are accessible and full of variety making it easy to please a big group. Citizen Cider’s location on 316 Pine Street also has some delicious food, so stop by today and try it out for yourself!
