Good beer, good brewery vibes. There's usually a guy dishing something up on the grill.

Always a bunch of different great beers available. Outdoor area is great to sit with friends and is dog friendly.

We have finally encountered an accurate brewery. This was our fifth try on a hazy down here and… we have a winner. Beers were good. Beers were as described. Their hazy tasted like a hazy. Patio was fabulous. Beer here.

We stumbled across this place strolling through the Bywater. What a gem, not to mention really good beer. Cool vibe and atmosphere.

Great beer and community feel, definitely worth a visit!

New favourite brewery. Had to go back before I headed home from New Orleans. Beers are phenomenal, back patio is beautiful, staff was super friendly, and we also had the crawfish boil and char-broiled oysters that were available from a vendor that weekend and they were the best char-broiled oysters I’ve ever had.

Great beer and friendly staff! A very good spot off the beaten path with a great beer garden and a neighborhood feel.

Wow, what a surprise - the beer aficionado's brewery to visit away from the touristy part of town. Focusing heavily on mixed fermentation (read: tart/brett styles) and saisons, with a smattering of enough others to satisfy groups. Serene outdoor area, except when the trains go right by the door (such is life). And a great value. Loved it.

I might be rating this place a little on the tough side, but I feel like it's a fair rating. Please also recognize that I like this place and might even go back. The folks running the place are very welcoming and nice and I love supporting local breweries. Having said that, it seems like mostly tourists visit this place.Here's my honest impression - I stopped by for a mixed 4-pack to go after having visited a couple days ago for an afternoon pour, and nothing really left an impression. I figured I'd try again with a different selection, but $18 for a 4-pack of pint cans to go signals a high level of confidence in their brews, so I expected high quality. I like stouts so grabbed 2 of their imperial stout cans which added a premium of $6 for my 4-pack of mix and match. I haven't tasted all of my selections yet, but I'm disappointed in the imperial stout. I've had many imperial stouts, and this one is not great. It lacks balance and the flavor of alcohol very much over powers what I love about stouts - the malt sweetness, bitterness, and rich, complex undertones of chocolate, coffee, or even fruit sometimes. This one tasted more like an underwhelming stout that someone spilled rum or some other spirits in. To be very fair some people might like this flavor profile in their imperial stout - after all this is subjective - but this is not my opinion of what a high-quality imperial stout should taste like, and certainly does not merit the premium price. Why not just drop a shot of your favorite spirits in your beer? I think a high quality imperial stout is much more complex and nuanced than that.If you have the time and freedom, I'd recommend going down the street to the Bywater Brew Pub instead. The atmosphere is also very welcoming, the furniture is more comfortable, and the brews are just better. I'd take their 'birthday sex' stout over the imperial from this brewery every day. It's far more complex, rich, and balanced - and reasonably priced. The folks running that brew pub are also very welcoming and accommodating, so all things considered, Bywater Brew Pub is the clear winner in the area.
Geezus tried to go on a Friday night. A bunch of screaming toddlers running around with no supervision. Makes for an unpleasant evening for people with no kids or people with behaving kids.
Great beer + garden.

Our favorite brewery in New Orleans!
Excellent beer and a large outdoor patio!
Top 3 Brewery in the city. Easily top for lagers
Nice selection of beer and great music, creed.
