Brewery Legitimus, I


Note: this post was written on 21 July 2024 to reference the other times we were at Legitimus. Only a few pictures were able to be recovered from old computers, Google Drive, Facebook, etc. and most won’t have the details from the day. We will try to add some context, but as our memories have faded, the picture may be all we have left of that moment.

Our inaugural visit was, I believe, halfway between the soft open on September 23 and grand opening November 5. Legitimus only had three beers to offer, supplemented with guest tap from Kent Falls Brewing Company. [Jumping forward eight years: oh, how they have changed for the better!]

My flight:

  1. Counter Surfer [American Brown Ale]

  2. Ovation [Session IPA]

  3. Chelson [Stout]

  4. Wanna Experiment (With Powder) [IPA, Guest: Kent Falls]

I took home a mini-growler, a ‘crowler.’

[I would never consider drinking from the boot unironically now… oh, how have I changed for the better!]
