Yellowstone Beer Company

About This Establishment

The jambalaya erupts with bison, Andouille, chicken and shrimp—rice soaks up heat and the texture stays bold. Elk Chili settles in with brine and rustic heft; the Philly Cheesesteak delivers a dense, charred bite and molten cheese. Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich hits the heat but carries an off-note in the sauce, a clear caution for heat seekers. Across the board, the beer list slams—16 taps and a full bar to chase with every bite.
