The Beer
The Big Board
Number of Taps
- 19 beers on tap, plus one hard kombucha
- 31% of beers are IPAs, ranging from single to quad
Signature Beer
- Pure West, an unfiltered west coast-style IPA
“What’s the Best Thing Ya Got?”
- I was recommended Common Wealth, the English-style pub ale new to the brewery. It has a crisp biscuity taste.
E-Bay Platinum Reserve
- Batch #7 of Madeline, a pinot noir barrel-aged farmhouse saison, was on tap when I visited. It was off the tap list by the next day, now available only in bottles.

- Pure Project fills crowlers and growlers. They have a beer fridge that includes can 4-packs of their popular beers and also bottles of barrel-aged beers not available on tap.

Outdoor Space
- There are additional tables just outside with space heaters

The Scene
Located in a business park, the brewery has a steady stream of people on weekdays. A hard Yerba Mate brewery next door contributes to make this area a destination.
