Mile Wide Beer Co. creates handcrafted flavorful beers made to the highest quality standards. The brewery is in a building that used to house a biscuit factory, hidden behind a grain silo. The taproom and brewery are separated by a floor-to-ceiling glass wall, letting customers watch the brewing process. The system can produce about 475 gallons of beer at once. At the moment, you can just find Mile Wide Beer on draft or on tap throughout Kentucky. Some of the favorites include Barstow (an American wheat ale), Idlewild (a pale ale), and McPoyle (a milk stout). Any beer that is on tap is also available as a 32-ounce crowler. In addition to beers on tap, you can also sip spirits or wine at the brewery. The taproom has plenty of seating options plus Noah’s Arcade with pinball and classic arcade machines, dartboards, and ring toss. The taproom is open on Tuesdays to Thursdays from 4 pm to 10 pm, on Fridays and Saturdays from 2 pm to midnight, and on Sundays from 11 am to 8 pm. You can find food trucks on Friday and Saturday nights plus brunch on Sundays. If a food truck isn’t there, guests are welcome to bring their own food or order in.
