Developed by two home brewers, this chain of brewpubs stands out for its craft beers and a chef-driven, fresh-from-scratch menu to go along with them. Individual locations pump up the local crowd with beer release parties for site-specific brews, as well as with beer-inspired dinners and brunches. Iron Hill caters specifically to its East Coast community by running its own charitable foundation and fundraising programs.
