“Finally good brewery in the area, so happy that we visited that place that offers very interesting beers. Their Pilsner and Lager are very solid. We also tried Farmhouse Ipa that offers interesting complexion of flavors as it is brewed and then put in barrels that once contained the wine lingering with its flavors almost like saison but keeping the good IPA profile. We will definitely visit again, hopefully soon!! :)“

“Good beer and good people!“

“Awesome beer and friendly atmosphere.“

“Spirit Water is a fantastic low key place with excellent offerings. The owner is super nice and knows his products well and can help you decide on what beverages to try. It's a great place to spend a few hours. Usually has a food truck in the lot, if not you can bring food or have it delivered and eat there. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. They occasionally have live music or other special nights there. Its Family friendly in the early evening and pet friendly all the time. Give it a try ypu won't regret it.“

“We went to Buffalo Creek this past weekend. I’ve never written an online review before but I felt like I had to based on this awesome night! Helene was our bartender and made the entire experience a blast! She was super witty and knowledgeable and took my girls night out to the next level. I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time! While I would prefer a place that had a cocktail menu, I will absolutely be back!!!!!! If they have an employee of the month Helene should absolutely be it!“
