“ absolutely stunning space with lots of seating inside & outdoors. the beer is really good- I got the lager and it was super light and tasty. The food was also incredible! We got the bavarian pretzel from the bar— it was literally the best pretzel i’ve ever had with this BOMB honey mustard. From the restaurant part of the brewery, we got the bbq pork taco, chicken tenders, and the burger. Everything was stellar and cooked perfectly. The taco needed a little bit of sauce or seasoning, but it was super juicy & a huge portion for one taco. Highly recommend if you want to have a beer & dinner! Also great spot for kids. ”
“ What a cool spot for a local beer. We purchased five beers to split between four adults. We had three kids with us that enjoyed the lawn and throwing rocks into the pond while looking for frogs. The beer was delicious. The food was also very good, but not my favorite. The staff was very friendly and answered all of my questions. I will be back. ”
“ Such a visually stunning space. The architecture and design of the interior is gorgeous. The guy pouring the beer is super friendly. They allowed me to order with my dog on a leash because I was alone. I sat outside on their patio and enjoyed a bratwurst and a beer. The place is gorgeous the views are stunning there’s plenty of places to sit right up close to the building as well as pavilions out in the grounds. There’s also some sort of hike that you can do that leaves from the brewery but I was more interested in the beer than the hiking. ”
“ Well, this place is more than just a brewery. It is a destination in itself. I recommend coming an hour before they open and then hiking up the nearby beer mountain, which is part of their property. it is a pretty easy hike and you’ll reach the summit within 20 to 30 minutes, and the view from Top is pretty nice. By the time you climb down, you’ll develop an appetite and will be able to enjoy the beer and the food to the fullest. Well, we didn’t really try any food here, so I can’t comment on the food because we had lunch elsewhere, but I can tell you about the beer. I am not much of a beer drinker, so I was looking for some sort of sour beer, but they did not have any, so I went with the cider, which was really really good. my friends, who are much more enthusiastic, be connoisseurs, really like their IPA. But I think more than the beer, what makes this brewery Wonderful is the ambience. The main brewery itself is huge and very well decorated with a lot of natural light, but favourite areas are the outdoors which overlook the hills and during fall, it is such a spectacle to see the changing colours. They also have a bunch of games that you can play. We sat by the Fire side, and that was extremely nice. To be honest, I liked the beer at cat skill brewery a couple minutes away better but this wins hands down for the overall experience. ”
“ Love everything here. So far, parking has been easy. The space is awesome inside and out. Everything we've ordered here has been delicious. The restroom is clean. The people who work here seem very nice and helpful. We will be back. Oh, our beer drinking individual enjoyed all the beer he got. ”
“ Prior to lunch our family enjoyed a hike up to the summit of Beer Mountain located on their expansive property. Then went to the brewery to celebrate. Popular spot with plenty of space both indoors and especially outside. Pet friendly as many patrons bring their dogs. Self service so you must order/pick up food from one counter and drinks /bar snacks from the bar area. ”
“ Super beautiful place with excellent (mostly German style) beer. Big outdoor space to enjoy with the family and doggies. Inside the space is very beautiful and cozy in the winter. Staff are super nice and if you feel like it you can hike the back of the property for a nice view. ”
“ Beautiful brewery with friendly and welcoming staff. The property is gorgeous. Unfortunately we did not get to do the hike because of the weather, but we'll definitely be returning next time we're in the area. We had dinner plans elsewhere, but the food also looked amazing. ”
