MARKET CROSS BREWERY
113 North Hanover Street, Carlisle, PA
Born in 2002, this original downtown brewery brings you unfiltered brews that are true to style and flavor. Their amazing Head Brewer Kevin Spicer is not only a great soul, but he is a talented brewer and it shows in the many years of delicious brews he has given us all.
Our 10 BBL Peter Austin Brewing System was brought over from England. This system is “hands-on” with hot liquor back, mash tun, gas-fired kettle, hop percolator, open fermenters, closed Grundy tans and American Grain Mill.
This system produces 12 – 14 different styles throughout the year. These beers rotate 3 or 4 at a time on draft at Market Cross Pub. Our Brewmaster, Kevin Spicer, and his brew crew work manually throughout the entire process.
Brewery tours are available upon request
GRAND ILLUSION
26 West High Street, Carlisle, PA
An urban cidery and wine bar in Carlisle PA, featuring 15 ciders, 5 beers, 8 wines and 4 sodas. It's all "Pennsylvania Craft on Draft!"
The Kimmel's are an average American family who wanted to do something cool. Show their kids, and prove to ourselves, what is possible if you apply some creativity to a felt need in the marketplace.
Like many others, they enjoy craft alcohol and visiting producers and their facilities. But they always knew there was something missing; that more could be done to heighten and deepen the experience. That's when Grand Illusion Hard Cider was born.
It took some time to tease out the details, but they developed the right combination of product availability, exceptional customer service, and an unforgettable atmosphere.
Bring your friends and your family. Join with us and celebrate everything there is to love about good food and drink.
