TAP ROOM, BIERGARTEN, BREWERY

Full pours for on-site consumption (1/4 liter, 1/2 liter and liters) and cans to go. Communal tables, counter and table service, it's a place to socialize with friends or meet new ones. 

Open year-round (snow, sun, whatever), our 2000 sq ft Biergarten has a seating capacity of 250. Communal tables, heaters in the winter, umbrellas in the summer.

We hope that our brewery will provide customers a way to see the unique brewing processes and equipment we use - a traditional decoction brew-house, open and closed fermentation, horizontal lagering tanks, German gravity cask dispensing, and a Lukr draft system imported from the Czech Republic – tools, process and equipment that will allow a wide variety of lager and continental beer.

CURRENTLY ON TAP

As of June 30th, 2026

CZECH PIVO

TENNER

Czech Pale Lager || 4.0% || Czech Mug || 10° P
Taste: Lemon, Crispy, Black Pepper
Notes: The most widely consumed beer style in the country that consumes the most beer in the world. Brewed with floor-malted Czech barley and Saaz hops. Triple decocted, open fermented, naturally carbonated, lagered forever.

AT THE SWANS

Czech Pale Lager || 4.2% || Willi || 11° P
Taste: Fresh Baked Bread, Biscuit, Herbal Spice
Notes: At the Swans it’s brewed with czech floor malted pilsner malt and small percentage of carabohemian malt to add an extra layer of malt flavors like freshly baked bread and rich biscuit, hopped exclusively with czech Saaz hops for that rounded noble hop earthiness, herbal and gentle floral tones.

THE STANDARD

Czech Pils ||  4.4% ||  Czech Mug || 12° P
Taste: Lemon, Malty Sweetness, Bread
Notes: Classic Czech pale lager, brewed with floor-malted Pils malt and Sterling hops. Double decoction, open fermentation, and extended lagering time bring a bit of Plzen to Brighton and Salem.

POLOTMAVÝ

Czech Amber Lager || 4.2% || Czech Mug || 11° P
Taste: Toast, Caramel, Bread
Notes: Polotmavy is Czech for “half-dark,” this 11° Plato Czech Amber Lager is brewed with Czech floor malted pils Vienna and Munich malts for notes of toast, caramel and bread. Czech Sladek hops balance out the malt and provide a spicy finish. This beer also undergoes a unique mashing schedule known as an enhanced double decoction for a more complex malt flavor. Open fermented, naturally carbonated, lagered forever

TMAVÝ

Czech Dark Lager || 4.4% || Czech Mug || 12° P
Taste: Sweet Dried Fruit, Toasted Dark Bread, Dry Finish

GERMAN & austrian BIER

Hefe weisse

Bavarian Wheat Bier || 5.2% || Weisse Glass
Taste: Clove, Banana, Full-bodied
Notes: Classic Bavarian wheat beer and one of the most technically challenging beers we make. Open fermented for maximum aroma and flavor, with clove and banana aromas formed from the unique Bavarian yeast. 

SALEM LAGER

Bavarian Helles || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Bright, Clean, Subtle Sweetness
Notes: A classic style from Munich, and what the Bavarians created after the Czech’s discovered Pilsner. Less hoppy than the Pilsner, Helles is malt driven and the flavor is clean and bright.

⁣SOMMER BOCK

Helles Bock || 7.2% || 14oz Willi Becher
Taste: Bready, Herbal, Biscuit
Notes: Single decoction, naturally carbonated, and conditioned in horizontal lagering tanks. This traditional pale bock is on the drier side, with herbal hop aromas and biscuit throughout.

SOMMER KELLERBIER

Franconian Pale Lager  ||  4.5%  || Willi Becher
Taste: Malty, Herbal, Pepper
Notes: Kellebier, Zwickel, Ungespundet and Landbier are often used interchangeably in Bavaria, and the designation is usually determined by region or the brewer's whim. But these beers share similar traits in that they are not filtered (or fined),which results in a slight haze, and they are mostly served on draft. Our Kellerbier is a pale version with a slightly higher ABV than our Zwickelbier, and carries a bigger, firmer maltiness.

BAVARIAN RADLER

Lager + Lemonade || 2.5% ABV || Willi Becher

SALZBURG RADLER

Lager + Grapefruit Soda || 2.5% ABV || Willi Becher

POLISH PIWO

LOJKO

Polish Lager || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Crisp, Bready, Earthy Hop
Notes: Triple decocted pale lager, dry hopped with Polish Lubelski hops. Salem had a long history of Polish immigration, particularly the area around Notch, and the beer is named after our head brewer/founder Chris’ family (Lojko, from Warsaw Poland).
We are a nation built on the backs of immigrants, cheers to us! Na Zdrowie!
