Lexington's Craft Beer Breweries | Kentucky Life | KET

Craft breweries are building a loyal following nationwide, even finding a niche in the land of bourbon. Kentucky Life visits two Lexington breweries to meet the folks behind West Sixth and Country Boy breweries.

Country Boy Brewing, whose logo features a pickup truck, is run by three men with country roots: Evan Coppage, Jeff Beagle, and Daniel Harrison. Located near the University of Kentucky campus off Broadway, the brewery offers a number of unique ales, including Jalapeno Smoked Porter, and coffee stouts as well.

West Sixth Brewery is located on Lexington's north side in an old bread factory. The brewery's owners hope the business will be a key fixture in the revitalized neighborhood. They offer locally made pretzels and beer cheese, and they are the only Kentucky brewery that cans beer.
