Been there twice now.

First time it was before they had any of their own stuff on tap. Had some guest beers, some food, etc.

Pretty cool place. For people who like board games/etc, they have tables where a group can play, as well as a room with cornhole set up, and they have a patio.

The second time [this past Saturday] they had their first beer on tap, an Amarillo Blonde Ale. Seemed to be well-brewed with no real faults for their first beer, so I was happy to see that. It uses Amarillo which always tastes a little bit "soapy" to me, so I'm not as strong of a fan of that particular beer, but I can't fault them for using a hop I don't like. The beer was still brewed well.

Been here a few times. This place is great!
The brewer is Andrew, originally from Riip when they first opened.

Ryan at RIIP told me they were going to do a collaboration with Andrew at some point.

Once GameCraft has more beers going we should do one of our regular or off-month meetings there. We don't get to S. County very often.

Sounds like a plan
