Independent photo by Ken Farver | Owner Dan Payson stands amid the stainless steel brewing equipment in the back of his Kishwaukee Brewing Co., which has been open since late October.

Food can be delivered for free from Antioch Pizza, and the brewery invites a food truck out at least once each week.
