About Recon Brewing

Recon Brewing is a brewpub in Butler. It is the original taproom and brewhouse of a company that now runs three taprooms. The name nods to Butler as the birthplace of the Jeep.

Three friends who met through the Butler Township fire service founded Recon in 2016. The original taproom opened in Butler in May 2017. The founders wanted high-quality yet unfussy beer.

The food menu is built to match the vibe of the space. Check the taproom events for a food truck schedule.

The patio is pet-friendly, but the indoor taproom is not. Events through the year include live music, trivia and charity fundraisers. More people have reviewed Recon Brewing on Google than any other brewery, taproom or beer shop in Butler on this site.
