Presidential Brewing Company has its roots with a father and his 3 grown sons gathering together to home brew a new beer ever week - simply named, New Beer Friday. Over the years, New Beer Fridays grew and one of the evenings the family joked about naming their beers after US Presidents, hence Presidential Brewing was born.

The beer names involve cheeky humor and are deliciously punny. Names are mostly of former Presidents and their wife’s such as Dill Clinton and Crancy Reagan. Although there are some beers named after hot-button political issues like Fake Brews. Some of the names are bound to crack you up!

Inside the brewery, you can seat yourself. Most of the tables are long tables with communal seating. The goal of this is for people to set down their phones and talk to each other. If you love your experience, merchandise is available for sale along the wall by the entrance.

Enter the beer garden through the brewery inside. Outside there is a stage, seating, fire pits, and when it’s busy, a second bar outdoors serving just beer. Just in front of the stage is a large American flag which is also where people can gather to dance during performances, if anyone feels so inclined.
