Could the names be any more Baltimore? Duckpin Pale Ale. Balt Altbier. Black Wing Black Lager. And, why not? Union Craft Brewing is all about showing pride in Baltimore, says Kevin Blodger, brewer and co-founder of the brewery with another Baltimore native, Jon Zerivitz. Blodger, who formerly brewed for Frederick Brewing, Cap City and Gordon Biersch, brewed his first Union beers in June. The tasting room, which offers free samples and a short tour, opened in July. Union hopes to begin canning its brews next year, but for now the beers can be found on tap around town and for sale as beer to go at the tasting room. Open Saturdays, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., 1700 Union Ave., Suite D, 410-467-0290, http://www.unioncraftbrewing.com
