Owned and operated by two local couples, Jeff and Angela Birchler and Kary and Deanna Walker, this brewery opened in early 2022 and has quickly become a local favorite for its wide tap list, community focus, and easygoing vibe.

Beer and Other Drinks
Wire Road rotates a strong cast of beers including the Spirit Horse Hazy IPA, Cool Hand Kolsch, and Fiddlesticks Scottish Ale. You might catch a Märzen, ESB, or sour, depending on the season. The foeder-aged beers bring a softer oak profile you won’t find just anywhere. Non-beer options include house kombucha, hard seltzers, cider, local wines, and Copper Canyon coffee. Wine slushes are a summer favorite. No guest taps or NA beers noted.

Visitor Tip: Try the Spirit Horse Hazy IPA early before it kicks. It’s a crowd favorite for a reason.

The Experience
Inside, it’s clean and casual with room for about 90. Outside, the patio is covered and heated, and the lawn hosts live music and tailgate-style events. The vibe is friendly with a mix of families, dog owners, and local beer fans. Staff are helpful and happy to walk you through the tap list. It gets lively on weekends but rarely feels overcrowded.

Visitor Quote: “The beer is excellent and the staff treat you like a neighbor.” Guests often mention how welcoming and consistent the service is here.

Food and Drink
No kitchen, but food trucks rotate regularly in the designated outdoor space. Expect up to three at a time on weekends. Guests can also bring their own food, though outside drinks are not allowed. No formal menu or allergy-friendly notes listed. Check social media for the current food truck lineup.

Visitor Tip: Bring cash for food trucks and arrive early for patio seating during events.

Events and Community
