BALTIMORE CITY Diamondback Brewing Company 1215 E. Fort Avenue Locust Point
The Brewer’s Art 1106 N. Charles Street Mount Vernon This hip and artsy brewery matches the vibe of the quirky neighborhood and local community.

Each room provides a different feel from the upscale dining room to the gritty Downbar and the cozy upstairs lounge. While most breweries only offer beer, this location pours everything from house brews to red, white, rosé and sparkling wines, and craft cocktails. thebrewersart.com Full Tilt Brewing 5604 York Road Govans This neighborhood brewery is all about live music, tasty drinks and providing a fun social atmosphere.

Ministry of Brewing 1900 E. Lombard Street Upper Fells Point/Highlandtown
The stunning structure of the former St. Michaels Church in East Baltimore has high ceilings lined by archways with golden trim, colorful murals and a gorgeous organ on the second floor balcony overlooking an open space where pews used to sit. Originally opened in 1857, this church that once provided refuge to German Catholics was abandoned in 2011 and is now one of the city’s hottest brewery hangouts. Long beer hall-style tables and high-tops now fill the spacious renovated church. Biblical scriptures are written above where the taproom’s bar serves a selection of rotating beers such as the Old Maude brown ale, The Point pilsner and 9.9 Problems imperial stout. ministryofbrewing.com
