What locals are saying
Holy City Brewing started in 2011 as a four-man operation in a pedicab garage, and the scrappy origin story still matters here — it's a genuine community anchor in Park Circle rather than a branded beer hall. The 20,000-square-foot brewhouse on Noisette Creek keeps 20 taps rotating, with the Washout Wheat and Pluff Mud Porter as workhorses and a sour program that's earned real respect, including a gold at the Great American Beer Festival. Pricing draws consistent friction — $12 IPAs and raw bar tabs that climb fast — and some loyalists still mourn the old Dorchester Road location's rougher, more intimate character, but the creek-side scale and the raw bar partnership with The Walrus give this place a draw that outlasts the novelty.
