Our first stop along the way to St. Louis is in the town of O’Fallon at the Peel Brewing Co.

Peel Brewery is a two story brewpub with a gastropub style on the inside. Both floors have bars with 28 taps holding 7 taps dedicated to Peel beers. Not a sports bar vibe, but they definitely have a couple large TVs at each bar to watch games. Peel’s brew system is located on the second floor and seems to be geared towards German style beers. Menu is based heavily on wood oven options, specifically pizza. I would recommend the maple bacon pepper wings.
