Attaboy Beer

Attaboy Beer is an independent craft brewery located in Frederick, Maryland, founded in 2017 by husband-and-wife team Brian and Carly. Born out of a shared passion for beer and the community it fosters, the brewery was built on years of homebrewing experience and a desire to create something meaningful and authentic. The taproom features a dog-friendly garage and beer garden, offering a casual, welcoming environment for locals and visitors alike. Attaboy Beer operates on a deliberately sized brewing system that prioritizes creativity and experimentation over volume. Their rotating tap list spans a wide range of styles, including New England IPAs (NEIPAs), West Coast IPAs, West Coast Pilsners, Pale Ales, Lagers, and Belgian-style beers. The brewery also consistently offers two to three seltzers and hard ciders on tap, catering to a broad range of taste preferences. In addition to its core taproom operations, Attaboy Beer operates the Attaboy Barrel House, a 6,000-square-foot event venue that doubles as a premium private event and wedding space. The Barrel House features bright white interiors, vaulted wood ceilings, modern accents, a disco ball, and a backdrop of 50 wine barrels stacked three high, creating a visually striking atmosphere. An English garden-inspired outdoor space and private grass beer garden complement the indoor venue. The space accommodates both intimate gatherings and large celebrations, positioning itself as a distinctive wedding and event venue in the Frederick area. Beyond brewing and events, Attaboy Beer has cultivated a strong local community presence through initiatives like the Attaboy Run Club, a free, informal weekly running group that meets at the brewery on Wednesday evenings. Participants earn points toward branded merchandise, reflecting the brewery's emphasis on fun, approachable community-building. The brewery also sells branded merchandise nationwide through its online store. Attaboy Beer represents a small-batch, independently owned craft operation with a focus on diverse beer styles, community engagement, and multi-use hospitality experiences.
