"An up and coming brewery on the Baltimore scene, Union Craft Brewing began selling Duckin Pale Ale and Balt Altbier in 2012. Although these brews are more difficult to find than those by Heavy Seas or DuClaw, these suds are definitely worth a taste. The brewery opens its doors to the public for tour and tastings pm Satirdaus at 1:30, 2:30, and 3:30 p.m."

"This popular brewery recently moved from the co-op space at Peabody Heights Brewery to its own full-blown production space and taproom on the east side of town.
