Huntingdon Valley

Head over to the Naked Brewing Company for a refreshing local brew. Founders Jim Crossland and Brian Sucevic started out brewing in Sucevic’s basement and knew that great flavor meant everything. They tested out recipes and ingredients until they knew they nailed it. Try all the unique artisan brews they have on tap (these were not brewed in their basement).

King of Prussia

In King of Prussia is Workhorse Brewing Company, a no-nonsense brewing co. Their site includes a tasting room with a large communal beer-hall style bar, lounge seating, and games.
