16 Best Craft Breweries in Baltimore

“If you like beer, friendly people and a comfortable inviting atmosphere then trust me you will fall in love with Pickett Brewing Company.“

“This is neither a bar nor a brewery; it is a local anchor, a public house, a pub. I have done so many things there: spent time with friends, took visitors (friends and family) to taste the beer, attended a community event, participated in the local running group's weekly meetup, watched the Ravens and the O's fail, etc. And the people running it and working there are fantastic!“

“Holy hell this place is great !
Perfectly cooked hot dogs, flavorful home brewed beers,great brand new pinball machines, and a friendly atmosphere!!!
Their Magic Number beer is by far my favorite !
Theyre always playing great movies/TV and music as well!!“

“My sister, brother in law, and myself had a phenomenal time hanging out tonight! The live music from Anton Tuvelman and the fun shenanigans from our awesome bartender, was a great send-off for the evening! We would definitely recommend this place to everyone!“

“As a patron and a former staff member, I know that Ministry is run by the best of the best kind of people who I miss so much no longer living nearby. Support these fine folks ❤️“

“One of my favorite local breweries! Juniperus IPA for the win! Such depth in their beers with a huge variety always on tap! And an added bonus woman owed/head brewer! Judy and Rob have really done something special here!“

“We held our wedding reception here and everyone had the best time. The venue was a perfect place to hold this event as both the inside and outside are perfectly set up for a no frills wedding. The pizza and beer were on point and the staff was so friendly. Everyone had nothing but compliments about the place and we are happy we chose here as it could not have went any better.“

“We just got done with an **amazing** brewery tour given by Taylor. We had such a fantastic time - the beer, atmosphere (patio & taproom, location, other restaurants, etc) are incredible on their own. The brewery tour we took is definitely a must-do. Taylor is an awesome host!“

“We live in NoVa but have visited Nepenthe Brewing Co. on a few occasions, and it never disappoints. The beer offerings, which include flights, never disappoint...and this visit was spurred by their 3-course Vegan Restaurant Week menu...which we enjoyed for lunch. The only real challenge is parking, but we found a great spot on a nearby street and simply walked to the brewery. We look forward to returning and hope to bring friends. Slainte!“

“First time visiting, the Hefeweizen Beer is the best and the lamb burger with pomme frites was on the money.“

“Excellent beer! Happy to see a brewery with more than just IPAs!“

“Rerouted from Union to try out waverly per a friends request and it did not disappoint! Hole in the wall speakeasy meets dive bar meets brewery! Low key vibes, rustic basement feel! This isnt for beer snobs but instead for those who want to sip and chill. LOVE LOVE LOVE Mel! Will definitely be back!“

“Cool place, brews were good and the appetizer was delicious. Definitely worth checking it out“

“My partner and I recently hosted our wedding reception at Monument City Brewing Company and they were fantastic to work with! If you're looking for a beautiful, convenient space to host a private event with very reasonable and flexible terms, check them out.“

“I love Brewers Art. Bartenders are always great. Ordered the famed burger and fries. Fries were amazing, burger was very mid. For a $20 burger, I expect excellence. Unmelted cheese, under sized patty (good flavor), too few toppings, and cold bun. Sausage platter was great, definitely the best plate we got. Pretzel appetizer was good but small for a $10 app. Kale salad was bland, and cold added chicken (for $12) had no seasoning and also bland. I’ve had really good meals here, this one wasn’t. Beer was fantastic as always.“

“Wonderful wait staff and amazing food definitely worth coming back for“
