Conveniently located next door to Double Shift is Border Brewing Company. Border Brewing Company is like your favorite hole in the wall bar, but with a small batch brewing system attached. There are 8 beers on tap, hightop tables as you enter the bar, and 3 TVs.

Brewery Review

Beer: 1

We ordered a flight including the Belgian Tripel, Shiftie IPA, Firepit Porter, and Chocolate Milk Stout. The Belgian Tripel stayed true to an original Trappist beer. Shiftie IPA had a strong alcohol taste but I wanted more hops to come out. Firepit Porter was terrific with a big flavor of roasted cocoa. My favorite though tasted just like its name the Chocolate Milk Stout (on nitro). It was creamy, smooth with just the right amount of chocolate. Overall our flight was so good that we wished we had enough time to try the rest of the tap list.
