From the Taproom

Cheers from Our Guests

Frederick has a lot of good breweries but this new spot may have the best beer of any of them. Top quality specialty beers and of course IPAs. The Gentleman's Agreement is very good. Really cool vibe inside that is different from the other breweries in town. They also work with a lot of local charities. I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the go to brewery in Frederick in short time.

RAK Brewing Co. has been an incredible partner in bringing our Nature on Tap series to life! Hosting us once a month, they've created the perfect space for our community to connect, learn, and enjoy great company. Their generosity and kindness shine through in everything they do. And let's not forget their amazing selections of craft beers, including our special collaboration, the Bee Kind Honey Hazy IPA, which was a crowd favorite! If you're looking for a welcoming atmosphere, fantastic brews, and a place that truly cares about community, RAK is the place to go!

🐶🎃 BEER DROP + DOGS ON THE PATIO. 🍺

RAKWard Bound – Pumpkin Pie Blonde (5.5%) drops TODAY!

Brewed with our friends at @laceleafpetservices , this smooth seasonal blonde is packed with pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg & vanilla — basically pumpkin pie in a crisp, golden beer. 🍂

🐾 Bring your pup and join us on the patio for the release party from 4–8PM! Because a beer release with our friends at Laceleaf obviously calls for four-legged drinking buddies. 😉

Grab the leash. Grab your crew. We’ll see you (and your dog 👀) on the patio!

There’s just something about live music done right. 🎸

Cris Jacobs took over the RAK stage last night and delivered a set packed with soul, serious musicianship, and the kind of energy that keeps a crowd locked in from start to finish.

A huge thank you to Cris Jacobs for spending the night with us, All Good Presents for bringing it all together, and Showtime Sound for keeping everything sounding 🔥.

And keep an eye on Cris… 👀 New music is dropping soon, and you’re definitely going to want to hear it.

Thanks to everyone who came out and made the night such a good one. 🍻

What. A. NIGHT. 🔥

Pressing Strings got the night started RIGHT and absolutely brought it. Incredible music, incredible energy, and a whole lot of happy people in the Yard.

Huge thank you to Pressing Strings for kicking things off and making the night one to remember. 🍻🎶

And if you loved them live, make sure you check out their new album, A Different Place, that recently dropped. 👀

This was just the beginning… stay tuned for more from the night. 🤘
