Drew Pool and Preston Thoeny opened Wren House Brewing Co. in 2016 in a historic 1930s home in the Green Gables neighborhood. Inside the taproom, which still very much looks like a house, it’s easy to make friends at the large wooden community table after ordering off the chalkboard menu, which changes daily. You can also expect to see takeout brought in from nearby restaurants along with a host of food trucks that pull up out front. Grab a beer from the bar, and get a good look at the trinkets and plastic dinosaurs along the ledge before heading outside to a patio table. The beer hall is known for its award-winning Spellbinder hazy IPA, fruit-filled Las Frescas series and staple Valley Beer lager. Wren House has expanded, with a production facility and patio in Prescott and a European-style beer hall in Ahwatukee, but we're partial to the original, albeit tiny, digs.
