Established in 2016, Skeleton Key Brewery is a family-owned and -operated microbrewery and taproom located in Woodridge, IL. We believe that craft beer is at its best when it blends a variety of palates and perspectives, and we aim to foster an inclusive environment in which individual differences are recognized, appreciated and respected.
​
Our 8,500 sq ft facility houses a 15bbl steam-fired brewhouse and three taproom seating areas with two separate bars. In addition to beer, we are passionate about education, community, live music, and bad movies.

The wall features acoustic-absorbing wood paneling and a mosaic of reclaimed doors painted in shades of coral, brown, and beige, some of which have preserved moss appearing to grow out of the openings.](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/90ad4a_b7448e8ee06e4879b7345c7901365bcd~mv2.jpeg/v1/fill/w_134,h_101,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,blur_2,enc_auto/90ad4a_b7448e8ee06e4879b7345c7901365bcd~mv2.jpeg)
