About New Crescent Brewing Co.

New Crescent Brewing Co. is a five-barrel brewery and taproom on Main Street in downtown Irwin. It is named in part as a homage to Crescent Brewing Co., which operated at the corner of Pennsylvania Ave and Main St from 1903 until 1919. Small batch brewing came back to Irwin one hundred years later.

The beers run from crisp light lagers to dark malty stouts to intensely hopped IPAs. The brewers say they tend to prefer the IPAs. The tap list rotates to keep things fresh.

The taproom is described as friendly and relaxed. You can order food in from any downtown Irwin eatery, and the brewery keeps menus on hand. It also offers snacks, soft drinks, cider and Stateside vodka beverages.

The taproom sits just up and across the street from The Lamp Theater. It is one of the most reviewed beer spots in Irwin on this site.
