Skeleton Key Brewery

Skeleton Key Brewery Craft microbrewery and taproom in Woodridge, IL. Food pop-ups often; BYOFood anytime! We’ve got more doors in mind, too…

We're a microbrewery and taproom that opened September 2016 in Woodridge, a western suburb of Chicago. A skeleton key is a single key that can open many different doors—which is what we aspire to be. Our taproom is one such door, through which you can find delicious beer, camaraderie and community. Our classes are another, through which you can develop an even deeper appreciation for craft beer an

d get into the nitty-gritty of how to make it. And our incubator is the third door, through which a several other breweries have made their own dream of opening a brewery a reality.
