Brewery Profile
Foam Brewers
At 112 Lake Street in Burlington, Foam Brewers is part of a city beer scene where visitors often plan more than one stop and pay attention to what is pouring that day. A visitor walking in finds a taproom built around full pours, beer to-go, and a schedule that can include community events and live music. The setting is not just a retail counter; it functions as a gathering place where people can drink on site, pick up cans or bottles, and see how the brewery presents its beer beyond the draft list. One recurring expression of that identity is the annual Foam Canvas Contest, which features original artwork that appears on the brewery’s cans for a year.
Travelers coming through this part of Vermont often look for variety in craft beer rather than a single flagship experience. Foam Brewers fits that pattern with a portfolio that includes pale ales, lagers, stouts, and sours, giving visitors a way to choose between familiar styles and more varied fermentation-driven options. The brewery also maintains Natural Hack, a low-intervention program for wine, cider, and mead. That makes the stop relevant for mixed groups where not everyone wants the same kind of pour, while still keeping the visit centered on fermented drinks made or curated under the Foam Brewers umbrella. The combination of beer styles, alternate beverages, art, and events gives the taproom more than one reason to be on an itinerary.
For practical planning, the taproom is the place to confirm the day’s pours, event schedule, and what cans or bottles are available at the moment. Foam Brewers offers full pours on site, and cans and bottles can be purchased in person or ordered online with pickup options. Because details such as food service, seating arrangements, parking, and age policies are not specified here, visitors should check directly before making assumptions, especially when planning around live music or a community event. For someone spending time in Burlington, the visit is straightforward: go to the Lake Street taproom, review the current list, decide whether to stay for a pour, and consider taking beer to-go if something on the board or in the cooler fits the trip.
Foam Brewers operates out of a location at 112 Lake Street in Burlington, Vermont, where it offers full pours and beer to-go. The brewery maintains a taproom that supports community events and live music. Its portfolio includes a range of craft beers such as pale ales, lagers, stouts, and sours, alongside a low-intervention program for wine, cider, and mead called Natural Hack. Foam Brewers also hosts the annual Foam Canvas Contest, highlighting original artwork that appears on their cans for a year. Cans and bottles are available for onsite purchase or online order with pickup options.
