Artifact Brewing
Small brewery on West Court pouring its own line a block off the courthouse. The name fits: find it, keep it.
Taproom in the burbs
Every taproom spot we vouch for, across every town we cover. Cross a town line for the good ones. That's the whole point.

Baba's Brew
A kombucha brewery on Morgan Street — Phoenixville fermenting something other than beer for once, and doing it at a 4.9.
Bill's Best Brewery
A small-batch brewery on South Keswick pouring hazy IPAs alongside English ales, Belgian saisons and German pilsners. Food comes from a different truck most nights, and there's a large private beer garden out back.
Conshohocken Brewing Company
The original taproom of an award-winning Montgomery County brewery, pouring hazy IPAs, fruited styles and dark malty ales on East Elm Street. Food, event space and a rotating tap list a short walk from the river trail.
Geronimo Brewing
Small-batch taproom tucked down the alley off Shewell Avenue, behind Lilly's Gourmet. Finding the door is half the initiation.
Kelly's Taproom
A Villanova-crowd pub on the site of the old Ivy Inn, run since 2002 by a group of alumni, with a taxidermied Maine moose watching the room since the 2005 reopening and happy hour weekdays from 4.
Rebel Hill Brewing Company - Brewery on Bridge
Rebel Hill's Bridge Street taproom, one more argument that this borough brews harder per block than anywhere in the burbs.
Rivertown Taps
Bridge Street taps with a 4.8 average and a rotating draft list that rewards the indecisive. Small room, strong pours.
Tannery Run Brew Works
Ambler's own brewery on East Butler, named for the creek that once ran the tanneries. History in the name, fresh hops in the glass.
Tired Hands Fermentaria Tap Room
Tired Hands' production brewery since 2015, 13,000 square feet with a tap room and a General Store attached. This is where Hop Hands comes from, and where the Milkshake IPA got invented alongside Sweden's Omnipollo.
Twelve78 Brewing
Small brewery tucked behind a building at the bottom of Bridge Street. Finding the door is part of the membership.
The Ways Restaurant & Brewery
Beer brewed on site in the middle of Glenside, with the sauces and dressings made in house to match. Thursday nights are smoked ribs, weekends bring live music, and the beer van rents out for parties, taps and all.
