Boxcar Brew Works (Craft Beer & Brewery in DuBois PA)

Boxcar Brew Works rolls out its barrels in Du Bois, Pennsylvania, inside a cheeky railway‑themed complex that feels part brewery, part locomotive museum (the staff apparently love trains). The décor is a celebration of everything that rattles on tracks, from reclaimed freight car tables to signal‑light menu boards, making the whole place feel like a spirited departure lounge for the beer‑obsessed.

The beer list is a veritable freight train of flavour, with more than twenty draughts rotating through the taps. Highlights include the Milkshake IPA, a silky, fruit‑laden beast that could convince a milk‑shake aficionado to try hop‑infused froth. Each brew is crafted with an eye on originality, proving that Boxcar isn’t content with simply copying the classics.

If you think a brewery’s only attraction is the brew, think again. Railcar Pizza bakes artisanal pies on site, topping them with “brewery grains” that echo the malts swirling in the kegs. The pizzas are as inventive as the suds, turning a simple slice into a miniature tasting session. In short, Boxcar Brew Works delivers a full‑throttle experience of good‑natured pretension‑busting craft, where rails, hops, and dough meet in perfect, slightly mischievous harmony.
