Bewilder Brewing

Bewilder Brewing - counter seating
Bewilder Brewing – counter seating

Bewilder is with the work of Salt City Brew Supply owners,  Ross Metzger and Cody McKendrick. As you’d expect then, they know a thing or two about beer and put out a range of award winning brews.

You’ll want to drop in for  more than their traditional brews though, you’ll want to to stop by to taste chef Justin Field’s from scratch food. Field excels with his handcrafted sausages, offering a menu that rummages through a global recipe book encompassing everything from English bangers through German weisswurst and more.   We initially wrote about Bewilder and Field’s food here.
