September 28, 2026 · Williamsport, PA Williamsport's Newberry neighborhood has a new pour list at a familiar address. Anomaly Craft Brewing soft-opened its second taproom September 2, 2026, at 913 Arch Street (the former Riepstine's Pub), with Detroit-style pizza from partner Rebz and a grand opening set for Saturday, October 17. Beer still comes from Anomaly's Berwick production house, known for German-inspired lagers, low-ABV pours, and rotating seasonals more than wild experimental lists. The Williamsport room runs roughly 10 taps with indoor seating, an outdoor patio (firepit and cornhole included), and a full kitchen partnership: Anomaly and Rebz operate as two businesses under one roof. Rebz leans Detroit-style pies (Hawaiian, Pickle Ranch, bruschetta specials) plus cheesesteaks, pretzels, and fries. Owner Nicholas Oliver told northcentralpa.com that Riepstine's regulars showed up day one, and he hopes live music lands with the October 17 grand opening. Hours reported after opening: Wednesday-Thursday 4-9 p.m.; Friday-Saturday noon-9 p.m. Note: the taproom planned a Sept. 27-Oct. 3 close for Bloomsburg Fair pouring. Watch Breweries in PA coverage and Anomaly's socials for updates. Berwick's firetruck taproom already built regional demand; Arch Street gives north-central Pennsylvania a steady place to find those traditional styles without chasing festival weekends. Future plans include Pennsylvania wine and spirits on the menu. For a Williamsport beer day, Anomaly x Rebz is the new Newberry pin between downtown and the West End. Doors are open now; circle October 17 for the grand opening. Soft open first, celebration second: that is the visit plan.
