Yards Brewing Company

Yards Brewing Company has brewed in Philadelphia since 1994 and offers guided tours of its 70,000-square-foot facility on weekends, covering the full production process from malt and hops to fermentation, conditioning, and packaging. Each tour includes a beer sample and a walk-about pour, with guides explaining the science and history behind each step of the brewing cycle. The spacious taproom and kitchen are open daily for drop-in visits, and the brewery's Ales of the Revolution line draws on recipes associated with Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and George Washington.
