Highland is the “Old G” in town and this location offers 24 taps. in the large indoor space, 5 of which were barrel aged specialties. Flights of 6-four ounce pours are available. Ample indoor seating with a large stage for live music. Mostly high-top seating indoors but the main outdoor deck has picnic tables. Food trucks are on site.  A huge event center and rooftop area is available for rent. The merchandise is diverse but standard for most breweries (shirts, hats, jackets, koozies, glassware etc.). A crowler filling station is available but no growlers are filled. A huge outdoor area called “the Meadow” is in the back offering a stage for live music, an outdoor bar, hammocks, and a place to let the kids free range.
