Great beer, a fun atmosphere and friendly service. We stopped here as part of the McHenry County Brewery Trail and would definitely come back. The food menu is very limited but you can bring your own. We ended up ordering a pepperoni pizza and it hit the spot.

What a great place! They have a fantastic beer selection. The place has a very comfortable feel to it. And, when the weather cooperates there's a beer garden.

Went there for Blotto (who rules) and they had no NA beer. Wow. Get with the 420 times, folks.

After many visits to Holzlager Brewery, I can safely say this is a fantastic brewery and you won't be let down. It has been very easy to recommend Holzlager to my friends, family, and even my customers at the bank, for multiple reasons. The brews are fantastic and are very reasonably priced. The atmosphere created by the staff, including the owners, is relaxed and easy going. The seats aren't awkwardly placed like a lot of bars and there is a healthy amount of room to move around, from table to bar to bathroom. And one of the best, thought-out aspects is the fact that there is a dedicated spot to pay or even order drinks, so you don't have to awkwardly squeeze between people, or stand so close that you're breathing down someone's neck just to grab the bartender's attention. And outside of the live musicians/bands that Holzlager hosts, the music played over the ceiling speakers is at the perfect level, where it's not too loud to become a distraction, but loud enough to listen and enjoy. To top it off, the location is easily accessible with plenty of parking. If you're leaving late and feeling like you have to chill outside before driving, it's a well-lit area that doesn't feel unsafe at all. That being said, this is a great brewery with a welcoming, efficient experience.

The service is amazing! Micheyla introduced me to the cucumber jalapeno tequila, and now I'm hooked!
We tried one of their beers randomly (the Hawaiian Hammer IPA) when we were visiting the Wisconsin Dells and it was delicious so we decided to check out their brewery since we live close. Great selection of beers, friendly and attentive bartenders. The beer garden was really cute and great for our kids. They had a food truck, plus probably 50 different card/board games for the kids to play with. We'll definitely be back,. I loved this place

Friendly staff and nice beer garden. Tasty beers too!

Very nice atmosphere. They take the time to explain all their beers and they even have something NA for those of us who don’t drink alcohol.

This place is awesome and everyone needs to come here. They brew excellent beer, and the place is full of awesome people. I did a flight of everything they had on tap and didn’t disagree with anything I tried.

I don't know why it has taken me so long to visit this place after having a couple of their beer options "out in the wild" but I am regretting having not stopped sooner. Very clean, very friendly, and great selection of brews. Child friendly, bring your own food with plenty of close options to select from....really, I should have stopped in so much sooner.
