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.
Chris S.Google Review
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!

A little upgrade never hurt anybody. 🍹✨

Our signature RAK Punch is getting an upgrade with Dangerous Summer Silver Rum from our friends at True Standard Distilling.

Not feeling silver? No worries—we’ve got you covered. You can also swap it out for Dangerous Summer Dark Spiced Rum in your cocktail.

We’re proud to partner with another awesome local business right here in downtown Frederick. Great drinks are even better when they’re made with local spirits.

👀 And to celebrate, we’re teaming up with True Standard Distilling for a True Standard × RAK event in the Yard on Saturday, August 15. Keep an eye out for more details... you won’t want to miss this one!

🍻 Did you know?

Before every shift (and every shift change), our managers gather the crew for a quick team huddle.

What’s on tap? Literally. 😏

We go over everything from new beers and menu items to reservations, events, and all the little details that help us give you the best experience possible. Because the more our team knows, the better we can serve you.

This week’s lesson? GM Joey giving everyone the inside scoop on what goes into some of our beers so your servers & bartenders aren’t just pouring your pint—they actually know what they’re talking about. 🍺👏

Big shoutout to Joey and all of our managers who make sure the team is set up for success every single shift. It might only take a few minutes, but it makes a big difference.
