On a beautiful autumn day we went beer hopping.
.
.
Heading north to Brewer…
.
.
To visit a brewery about which we’d heard good things.
.
.
The space is large and funky…
.
.
With windows behind the bar that look directly into the brewery.
.
.
After sampling a few beers… the current tap selection was too IPA heavy for my taste… I snagged the cocktail list, and Oh. My. God!
I set to work.
.
.
A true artisan was at work here and luckily he was our bartender.
.
.
I started with the Black Seeds which was a fabulous twist on a margarita.
.
.
We could have sat outside on the patio… but it was too far away from the cocktails.
😉
.
.
The menu had a sense of humor.
.
.
And the Truffle Pig pizza was amazing.
.
.
But my second (and yes, okay… my third) drink was a masterpiece.
.
.
Lilith’s Last Kiss was a complex, multi layered flavor extravaganza that I would happily drive the hour and a half for again.
👍
.
River's world..... 
Great ambiance and food/drink that don’t disappoint. Score!

Cocktails at breweries are usually basic, this was artistry.

Finally a great cocktail and food review! It’s disappointing to see when you and the hubs go out and then the food is subpar and the cocktails are nothing to write about, lol. I would have had me the Bougie Burger and the Snake Plisskin cocktail, you know to balance it out! Just for an escape from LA feel…LMAO.

It’s a shame the place is such a long drive, I’d definitely go more often if it was closer.

I did not.
Though after three cocktails I probably would have if asked…

If Lilith’s last kiss was that good, I can only imagine what her first one was like. Pucker up, baby!

It’s rare to see cocktails (or wine) at a brewery, so I generally avoid them. LOL. The food menu looks awesome too!
