My wife, son, and I stopped by for the first time. We got to hang out with Luke and James. They were beyond welcoming—we were immediately joking around and comfortable as if we were regulars. The beers were just as great as the vibes. We spent the most time with Luke and he took great care of us in particular (much better than his girlfriend would). Highly recommend.
Great beer and great service.
Nice cool place to hang out enjoy a cold one amd mingle with people.
Parking is limited, but it works out.
Brews are amazing...try the Ambigram IPA is killer✌️🍺
Love coming here for a causal hangout, beertenders are all super amazing, especially Danyel! Always a welcoming environment and I love bringing friends here for any occasion. Would definitely recommend
Ask for Danyel if she is there, total sweetheart. Oh, and the beer is great too.
Patrons and staff are very easy to communicate with.
Need more help at the bar. Wait is to long for a beer or to close your tab.
First time visitor. Nice lighting inside the seated area of the brewery. Extremely limited parking (all of the parking in the front was taken on a Monday evening around 630ish when I arrived), however, I found out after I was served at the bar that all three levels of parking are permissble to park at.
I got a flight which comes in 5 oz piurs (four of them). Blueberry Pie-Eyed (Fruited Sour Ale 7%) was a really good beer and the second best beer I tried (I could taste the blueberry and the tartness). Cukezilla vs Limekong (Kolsch, 5.4%) was the best beer I tasted (loved the cucumber and lime combination). La Roja (Red Ale, 6%) was not to my liking. I saw the pomegranate and biscuits in the red ale description on the beer menu and assumed it would be a good red ale beer but I didnt really like it. Framboise (Belgian Sour Ale, 6%) was also a good beer. This one tasted more like a light stout. I couldnt taste the raspberry or pink rose (if it was present in the beer then it was a really faint taste). I could definitely taste the vanilla. Overall, this brewery is an awesome place to hang out. While I like the stouty, fruity, sour type of beers, there are also light and IPA beers available on draft and via cans. Love the background music and noise level in the building. Keep serving the customer base!
Great beer, pretty tasty tuna bowl. Service somewhat slow
We had our wedding reception here, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish! The staff was incredibly organized and attentive — everything ran so smoothly that I didn’t have to worry about a single thing the entire night. Our event planner (Ashley) was an absolute gem — patient with every question and detail leading up to the big day, and calm, supportive, and on top of everything when it mattered most.
The bartenders (James, Aishel, Danyel) were a total hit — fun, friendly, and honestly felt like part of our family by the end of the night. They brought such great energy and made everyone feel welcome. I know there were so many staff but I can't remember everyone's names (I'm so sorry!)
I can’t recommend this venue enough for anyone planning a wedding or special event. The people here truly care, and it shows in every detail.

Danyele and James were the best bartenders and so helpful!
I was too late for the Oktoberfest, but the other beers are fantastic as usual.
Absolutely horrible experience. There is NO parking. We used them for a 60 person event where there were NO parking places open at all. 2 of our people had there cars towed when they parked in an area that they thought was OK. What a coincidence that the towing company is right down the street. We will never again have an event here and I will never personally go there either.
Great selection of amazing beers! 🍻
Great place to get a delicious brew and hang out for a bit. Very spacious. Weekly events. Great service.
