Welcome To
Sapwood Cellars
We are dually focused on barrel-aged mixed-fermented beers and fresh hoppy ales. Founded on our shared passions for brewing science, delicious flavors, and the craft of beer production, we brew beers that are balanced, drinkable, and highly aromatic without tongue-scraping bitterness or piercing sourness. Beer should be a pleasure to savor, not a challenge to conquer!
Our Kitchen
Albura Taqueria

Led by Chef Brock Clonchmore, Albura will be serving up delicious tacos that pair perfectly with your favorite beers! There are options for everyone, including vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters. Come visit us today, and let’s taco ’bout great beer together

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have food?
Albura Taqueria is located within our tasting room! It operates whenever we are open (last food order 30 minutes before closing).

Sunday Happy Hour & Football Discounts
Sundays during football season we always offer one “beer flavored” beer for $4.50 for a full pour from 1-5 PM. Our bartenders are lonely on Sunday evenings… so we wanted to offer some enticement for you to keep them company! We’re offering 25% off all drafts (half and full pours) from 5-7 PM every Sunday!
Current Operations & Outdoor Seating
Our tasting room is open Tuesdays-Sundays for pours and pick-ups. Our pet-friendly patio is open whenever the tasting room is! We now have a greater selection of to-go options, all available for pre-purchase through our webstore and in-house. No contact pick-up is available, just call the tasting room when you park.
Do you take reservations for large groups?
We’re happy to reserve tables for larger parties. For groups larger than 20, we’d appreciate a week’s notice (email info@sapwoodcellars.com) if possible to add another bartender to the staff.
Can I rent the tasting room for a private event?
We have a range of options for your event from pushing a few tables together, to our Barrel Room for events of 20-25 people, Private Events Room for 40-50, to taking over the entire tasting room for up to 150! We have a minimum hourly tab we’ll set depending on the day, time, and number of people. Please contact info@sapwoodcellars.com or call us for more details. Please include the number of people, desired date/time, and any other details! More information.
Are pets allowed?
Pets are allowed on our patio in front of the brewery (open Tuesday through Sunday each week). We have bowls of water for your furry friend, and sell brewery-themed chew toys, bandanas, and collars! Our lease currently doesn’t allow pets in the actual taproom unfortunately.
Can I get a tour?
Informational tours of the brewery are available on request. Ask one of the bartenders when you arrive since it may take some time for someone to be available to show you around and answer questions!
