Usually we do not venture this far north on a Sunday, but love celebrating birthdays and this place was turning one!!  Walked in and we’re immediately greeted with a smile from John and Jeff. They currently had 16 local brews on tap.  Tough choices and many I have not tried, which is difficult to find these days.  SCORE!

One of the forst things that caught our eye was the words “peanut butter” and although I am a PB/Beer fanatic, Granite Falls hit it perfectly.  Smells like peanuts and the initial taste is malty with a nice smooth peanut butter finish. Hello JIF!!

Not only does Cornelius have 16 beers on tap, they have cold bottles to choose from along with wine. This place is strictly local brews and well organized so taking home a six pack, growler or bottle of wine can be done with ease.

We had the privilege of meeting the owners, Casey and Wes, on this joyous occasion. They were great. Wishing them all the luck for continuing their excellence in providing the beer community with fine quality selections with a smile and fantastic service.
We sat down with Casey, one of the owners, to discuss the past year and plans for the future. Checkout that interview above.
