brewpub
A beer-focused bar, pub, or tavern offering its own beer, usually brewed on the premises.
A brewpub is a bar, tavern, public house, or similar establishment specializing in beer, and which offers its own make of beer, usually from brewing facilities on the same premises.
The establishment must offer its own beer. Brewing on the same premises is usual rather than mandatory in this definition.
A beer garden is defined by its outdoor or open-shelter seating arrangement. That setting alone does not establish a brewpub's own-beer offering.
