Yards Brewing Company

Yards Brewing Company has been proudly brewing in the City of Brotherly Love since 1994. We’ve grown from a garage-sized operation in the Manayunk section of Philly to Roxborough, Kensington, Northern Liberties, and now to our newest location — a 70,000 sq. ft. brewery and taproom at 500 Spring Garden Street.

Philadelphia Pale Ale, Signature IPA, and Brawler, all nationally recognized ales, lead a balanced portfolio of quality, handcrafted beers that include nine year-round offerings and several seasonal and limited releases.

Founder Tom Kehoe and the Yards Crew share a commitment to supporting the good people and organizations making their backyard a better place to live and work. Here at Yards, it’s always been about working hard, having fun, and giving back. The Brew Unto Others motto reflects our commitment to quality, community, and sustainability. It’s also a call to action. We encourage you to get together to enjoy our beer, each other’s company, and to Brew Unto Others every day.

History

Back in the late ’80s, two college buds Tom and Jon, decided to brew some beer for their friends. Whether it was natural talent or the endless supply of suds, people liked what they tasted and wanted more. They didn’t know it at the time, but this was the beginning of what was to become Yards Brewing Company.

Yards has been brewing Philly’s beer since 1994. We’ve grown from a garage-sized operation in Manayunk all the way up to our current location at 500 Spring Garden Street in Northern Liberties. And we couldn’t have done it without your support through the years. Our beers always have and always will be brewed, bottled, kegged, and canned for the hard working people of Philadelphia and beyond.

You can find Yards throughout the Mid-Atlantic Region in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland. Or you can visit our taproom to go on a brewery tour and try specialty beers only available at Yards. Philadelphia Pale Ale and Brawler, both nationally recognized ales, lead our balanced portfolio of quality, handcrafted beers including nine year-round offerings and several seasonal and limited releases.

The Taproom

Our taproom offers 20 different beers on tap and a full menu of beer-friendly fare crafted by Chef Jim Burke. A selection of Pennsylvania wines and soda are also available. We do not have a separate children’s menu.

Yards Brewing Company is an independent craft brewer.
