Springfield's west side has a small but growing craft brewing presence, and Engrained Brewing Company at 1120 Lincolnshire Blvd sits at the quieter, residential end of that scene. Where downtown Springfield bars trade on foot traffic and familiarity, Engrained draws a more deliberate crowd willing to make the trip for house-brewed pints in a purpose-built taproom setting.
