Riverlands Brewing Company Brewery •
1860 Dean Street Unit A, St. Charles - 4.92 miles

“I find it a rare occurrence to walk into an establishment for the first time and feel so comfortable and welcomed that you just want to stay. That was our experience today. The bartenders were friendly and engaging in a way that felt like they were neighbors. And the patrons were nice and talkative. And the beer was good. They're doing it in all the right ways, it seems. It's a nice place to escape to from the busy town center. Highly recommend a visit!“

“The Favorite Beer of this beer enthusiast! This Beer Dad loves their IPA's and their Hazy's in particular. My kids love to hang out in the outdoor patio area, sit in their tents, and eat their McDonalds or Portillos.

That being said, YOUR KIDS BETTER BE WELL BEHAVED. This is not a place to have them run around and be little devils.“

Thank you Stockholms for being an amazing place. Highly recommend. Highly highly recommend.“

Full menu. Good food. A good comfort spot.
My last flight had 4 very different beers to try. There is a variety and often new beers to try. Big thumbs up.“
