Evil twin beer was quite delicious. Pepperoni pizza was great. Watch out for the mustard if you’re ordering the pretzels, it’s tasty but horseradish based and quite spicy but I loved it.
I and four friends came to Heritic Brewery for lunch. We used to come here for lunch often when the business was locally owned. This was our first visit since it was sold to Calicraft. I ordered a Shallow Grave and BLT. The Shallow grave was as good as I remembered, and everyone enjoyed their sandwiches. Service was good.
Great place to eat and have beer. Open seating and you order everything at the bar. Staff is great and food came out in a timely manner. I’m a stout/porter person so my go to is the Chocolate Hazelnut Porter. For food, we had the Lonnie Cheeseburger with fries and Buffalo Wings. Food was good. They have pizzas which we plan to try next time.
