Craft Beer & Cocktails
You won’t go thirsty looking for a tasty handcrafted brew and cocktails in Elkhart County.
Pull up a stool at these craft breweries and eateries along the Heritage Trail.
Goshen Brewing Co.
The tap list never disappoints here. The kitchen turns out an amazing fusion of Southern smoked fare with a hint of Asian flavors. Wash it down while enjoying a view of the brewhouse, or watch life pass by on the busy Millrace Canal Trail just steps from the doors. (Bonus: You can bring the whole family here!)
Common Spirits
Cozy up to the bar or grab a spot in a booth at Common Spirits for a classic cocktail or an exotic new take. Co-owner and master mixologist Jami Hawkins loves giving her own spin on the drinks you love, from elegant martinis to a shot and a beer.
The L Wine Bar
From the extensive and excellent menu to the funky vibe throughout, this new craft brewery and distillery is a full sensory experience. The name draws from an Amish word for “relax,” something that’s easy to do here.
Iechyd Da Brewing Co.
Yeah, we sometimes trip on the name too. It’s YACKY-dah - and comes from the owners’ Welsh heritage. But you’ll want to stay for the stunning variety of beer from the taps as well as the mouth-watering pizzas and sandwiches.
Level Up Your Experience
Wedgewood Brewing
Rub shoulders with a new friend at this cozy microbrew. In the summer, you might meet someone who just got off their bike from the nearby Pumpkinvine Nature Trail.
The Chubby Trout
Not many places where you feast on smoked meats and sushi, but this is the place. Pair your plate with owner Cam Snyder’s house brews, Fat Cam, or an impressive selection of regional craft brews. Delish!
Brass Elk Brewing
You can’t beat the views from the patio at Brass Elk Brewing right along the Elkhart River in downtown Elkhart, and it’s even harder to beat when you pair that with its selection of guest taps and featured Ash & Elm Ciders and eclectic menu.
Fruit Hills Winery & Orchard
The rustic tasting room overlooks acres of orchards in the historic Bristol Fruit Hills. Grape and fruit wines are produced on-site.
Tasting room is open year-round; outdoor deck and entertainment seasonally.
