The Taproom
The Taproom at Kingdom Breweries

The brewery has an onsite bar and lounge known as the Taproom,[5] where visitors have an opportunity to sample the brewery's variety of beers and take guided tours of the facility.[6] Unscheduled tours of the brewery are held Monday through Saturday between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m., and groups of five or more can schedule tours by appointment.
