Damn Fine Peeps and Suds at the Good People Brewery and Taproom!! Enjoy drinking your beer at tables right out on this working brewery floor. I would highly recommend a stop for one of their tours that they offer on Saturdays from 2pm to 4pm on the hour. Signing up online is the best way to go to reserve a slot. Each tour is limited to 15 peeps so... nice and intimate. $10 gets you a collectible glass and a pint or four 4-oz samples.
