At Forbidden Root, we value the way great beer creates pleasure. We also love how beer builds community, whether we're sitting sitting at the table with family or with newfound friends in a community environment. Through both our beers and brewpubs we envelop our guests in a rich multisensory experience through the textures, flavors, and visual sparkle of our beer, food, and environment. Located in The Yard at Easton, we feature creative cuisine from Executive Chef Paul Yow and imaginative brews from Masterbrewer Nick Gabriel. Join us for one of Paul's signature dishes, The Duck & Dumplings, or perhaps a crowd favorite Strawberry Basil Hefewleizen, in our warm and open atmosphere.
