RAK Brewing is more than just a brewery; it’s a sanctuary for those seeking a classic and sophisticated, yet relaxed ambiance. This unique blend of elevation and comfort ensures everyone feels right at home.

This isn’t a cookie-cutter brewery. This is an inclusive, friendly spot where the community gathers to enjoy good times, great company, and fantastic brews.

Because we are committed to our community and believe in the power of giving back and paying it forward, we are proud to take our name from a commitment to performing and encouraging Random Acts of Kindness. At RAK Brewing, we’re raising the bar on what a brewery can be.

We're honored!

Forgot to make reservations for lunch with Mom, eh? Yea, that happens. Look at us, over here digging you out of the weeds, once again. Don’t worry - we aren’t keeping tabs or anything. Swing through, have a drink, a pie, and throw a few bags. Just don’t let Mom show you up on the turf. 😉

Spending the day with family overwhelming you? We have plenty of beer, wine, and cocktails to bring back some fun in your Sunday Funday. Heck - make it all three if you need to. 

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing Moms out there! We don’t care what your kids say about you…you’re great in our book. 

Open til 8pm with @doppizza.co serving up all those delicious menu items along side our craft beverages.

Beer Fest VIPs…where ya’ll at? We have something new for you. Something special for you. Just 🫵🏼. 

Cherry Pie, Lemon Warhead, Smoothie Sour. Don’t try to blurt it out all at once, you don’t need your tongue tripping over itself before we get things kicked off. Besides, it’s going to be busy taking in all the flavors this beauty has to offer. 

It’s Cherry 🍒. It’s Lemon 🍋. It’s Sweet. Its’s Tart. 

Maybe some of it will make it back to the taproom, maybe not? 🤷🏼‍♂️

This is what happens when you’re a VIP…you get special stuff. 

We are pumped to see so many faces at the festival tomorrow and we can’t wait to spend the day with you. RAK Yard is open 11a-Midnight on Saturday, to pregame or after party.

Smoothie. Sour. So good, we forgot to note in on the can. Strawberry and Papaya make up this smooth Messiah, meddling lush strawberry and juicy papaya purée with swirls of vanilla and strawberry soft serve, delivering a thick, velvety pour, that drinks like a fruited milkshake on a Summer Day. Sweet, tangy, and sinfully creamy, this brew is pure tropical indulgence—no spoons required.Welcome to paradise. 

On tap and in cans, for whichever indulgence you prefer.

✨ Open at 11a for lunch and a cocktail to get you through the day, with @doppizza.co. 🍲 

✨ Pour House Trivia at 7, Signups at 6:30! ⁉️

✨ Yard Games in Full Effect! Bocce, Cornhole, Shuffleboard, let’s go! 🎯 

✨ Patio Ready 💪🏼

✨ Pub Run after party? 🏃

See you soon, Frederick! 😉 Cheers 🍻
