LOCAL BREWERIES WITH UPDATE STORIES
2C Family Brewing in Nampa adds new outdoor seating in front of the brewery. Great place to sit outside and watch all the people walking around downtown Nampa while drinking beer and eating a chorizo.

After years of searching, they found Fire House #6, a perfect location for a brewery. They opened their new tap house in 2019, but were unable to use their new brewery equipment until July 2020 due to government paperwork.

Recently, they turned their brewery and tap house into a Brew Pub with the addition of a food menu. Matt Gelsthorpe is their new chef. You may remember Matt as the beer guy at Boise Coop.
I had the opportunity to visit the new Brew Pub last week and loved their food which can be paired with one of their own great beers.
