A long-anticipated taproom is finally eyeing an opening date. Sacred Vice Brewing Co. is hoping to open its Kensington location in mid-November, reports The Philadelphia Business Journal.

The growing brewery will be opening its latest taproom at 1833 North Howard Street, in a 3,000 square-foot space. The building should have room to seat up to 50 guests and will offer 14 beers on tap. 

Sacred Vice will divide the building’s space between production and seating. The front of the house will be dedicated to accommodating customers, while the back will be used for beer production.

The Kensington location will allow Sacred Vice’s head brewer, Andrew Rubenstein, to try his hand at beers the company hasn’t previously attempted, including saisons, lagers, and IPAs.

Sacred Vice currently operates one taproom in Philadelphia’s Harrowgate neighborhood at 3233 Amber Street, and serves its brews in Doylestown at The Garden Bar at Puck. The new taproom is markedly larger than these locations. 

Sacred Vice is the brain-child and passion project of cousins Matt Brodsky and Justin Steinberg. The duo launched the company in 2018.
