Full Brewery Buyout

Rent the whole enchilada.

Book your event

When you need the whole place, you get the whole place. Every room, every tap and every corner of the brewery is yours for the night — enough to carry a wedding reception, a fundraiser or a vendor market without anyone being squeezed in around the regulars.

You get a private bartender and a full bar, a stage for announcements, speeches or a band, and two projectors for slideshows and anything else you want on the wall. Set-up time is included, and preferred caterers are available if the event calls for more than our kitchen sends out.

The occasion

What this space is good for

  • Wedding receptions

    Receptions and post-wedding parties, for people who'd rather not do a ballroom.

  • Corporate events

    Team building, all-hands, and holiday parties with a stage and projectors.

    Next door to M&T Bank Stadium, with projectors for the away games.

  • Fundraisers

    We've hosted plenty. The stage and AV are already here.

  • Vendor markets

    Room for tables, traffic, and a crowd that stays for a pint.

Why Checkerspot

More than a room to rent

  • Independent & woman-owned

    No chain or hotel group behind it — just a Baltimore brewery that cares how your night goes.

  • Brewed right here

    Small-batch, gluten-reduced beer made on site, a short walk from M&T Bank Stadium.

  • A full bar

    We hold a full liquor license: cocktails, spirits and wine alongside our beer.

  • Catering your way

    Food from our own kitchen, or bring in the caterer you love.

  • Sound & screens

    A stage, sound and projectors for the toasts, the slideshow and the band.

  • Easy parking

    Spaces on Ridgely and Alluvion Streets, free street parking, and Lot O nearby for overflow. On stadium days, allow a little extra time.

What we pour & plate

Beer, cocktails, and food

  • Our beer

    Everything on tap is brewed on the other side of the glass wall. Draft, cans, and crowlers to go.

  • Cocktails, spirits & wine

    We hold a full liquor license, so cocktails, spirits and wine sit alongside the beer — plus a proper non-alcoholic list, so nobody is stuck with a soda.

  • From our kitchen

    Our own kitchen handles food in-house — the taproom menu, or a simplified spread built for a group.

  • Catering

    Preferred caterers are available for full-service events, and there's plenty of room for a DJ, a band, or a karaoke setup.
