Terrapin Beer Co.

If you love great beer, hanging out in the sunshine, and listening to live music, then you will be sure to love an afternoon spent at Terrapin Brewing Company. This award-winning brewery is most famously known for their delicious Rye Pale Ale, which won the prestigious American Pale Ale Gold medal at the 2002 Great American Beer Festival - only six months after the brewery had opened! Today, Terrapin's awards list is almost as long as their beer list. Notable beers include Liquid Bliss, their much-talked-about chocolate and peanut butter porter, the citrusy and hopped up Hi-5 IPA, and the killer Hopsecutioner IPA. The brewery, which runs tours for those who want to learn how great beer is made, has an indoor tasting room and a large outdoor area where families and groups of friends can lay out picnic blankets or snag a picnic table.
