Cooper's Family Brewing (Craft Beer & Brewery in Scranton PA)

Cooper’s Family Brewing may be Scranton’s newest micro‑brewery, but it already feels like a seasoned veteran with a mischievous grin. Housed inside Cooper’s Seafood House, this nano‑brewery treats every batch like a secret experiment, tossing in off‑beat hops and employing barrel‑age tricks that would make even the most staid maltster blush. Their Irish Red Ale is a flawless companion to the Irish‑themed dishes on the menu, while the stout—named after the establishment’s mischievous cat—delivers a dark, velvety punch that hints at feline mischief in every gulp.

The interior is a bold splash of tropical flair (think vibrant colours that scream “we’re not your typical Scranton joint”), and a model train snakes along the ceiling, adding a dash of childlike wonder to the whole affair. The food list is an extensive roll‑call of seafood staples and pub classics, each served with the sort of attentive, cheeky banter that makes you feel like the staff know your name before you do. Rotate through a constantly changing lineup of beers and you’ll quickly see why the locals are already bragging about the quality, creativity, and sheer enjoyment on tap.
