About Yards Brewing Company

From Yards' own website, read September 24, 2026.

Yards Brewing Company is the brewery and taproom on Spring Garden Street in Northern Liberties, Philadelphia. Yards has brewed in the city since 1994. It started in a garage-sized space in Manayunk and has also brewed in Roxborough and Kensington before landing here.

The classic lineup includes Philadelphia Pale Ale, Trash Talk IPA, Philly Standard, Brawler and Philthy. Seasonal beers rotate through, and the taproom pours them at the source.

The kitchen serves its food menu all day, every day. Expect wings, smash burgers and house-made pretzels, plus monthly specials and a Taco Tuesday menu. Weekday happy hour runs from 3pm to 6pm.
