Barcelona
This is not a brewpub. Co-owner James Welsh is at pains to spell out that at Garage Beer Co., it is beer first, all else second. Brewpub; microbrewery; nano-brewery... little doubt you'll have come across the whole craft beer glossary (if you...
Philadelphia
Everyone enjoys a nice beer garden... for three or four weeks out of the year. The rest of the time it's too cold, too windy or it's pissing down with rain. So an indoor beer garden? We say why not, and so does Philadelphia hospitality figure Avram...

Toronto
