Dock Street Brewing Co

HERE’S THE SHORT VERSION.

Dock Street Brewing Company was founded in 1985, amidst a proverbial sea of watered down and adjunct-plagued lagers, as one of the first post-prohibition craft breweries in the country – and Philly’s first all-grain brewpub.

Now, we call a firehouse at 50th and Baltimore Avenue (Dock Street West) and a former brewery-turned-tile-factory-turned brewery at 22nd and Washington Avenue (Dock Street South) our homes. We’ve come a long way since our first location at 18th and Cherry – 3.9 miles, to be exact – but to this day, countless craft beer drinkers credit Dock Street as the beer that turned them away from yellow-tinged macro-brews and corn-infused light lager.

We’re known as much for our fearless experimental beers like the Walker (brewed with goat brains in honor of our favorite show, The Walking Dead) as for staples like our Bohemian Pilsner or our Prince Myshkin Russian Imperial Stout, one of the highest rated beers out there.
