This was my first time coming to the new location. I had been to the other spot they had before a while back but didn't really remember it. This one was easy to locate right off the highway in an industrial area. There was plenty of street parking as well as parking on the side in the lot they share with neighboring businesses. I would assume the other businesses are closed during evening hours since there was so much parking available. The inside was very spacious with plenty of open seating. Came in on a Thursday night that meet a couple of coworkers and it wasn't crowded. They do serve food but the menu is limited. I think all of their beers are brewed in house. Some and great and some are a little weird. They will allow you to have small samples before you order a full sized glass. I say try a few until you find one you like. They have trivia nights and other special events so check out their website.

I had a lovely time checking out this brewery right by the Orioles and Ravens stadium. I have been wanting to check out h the brewery for a while because their beers are sold at the Oriole's Stadium and who doesn't love Baltimorean beer?! When I visited, there was a cute Valentine's Day Market featuring many local businesses. Beyond the shops, I had a great time talk to the bartender and figuring out what beer I should try based on my taste preferences. Overall, I had a relaxing time at the brewery with friends :) The restrooms are clean and organized, I love how the women's restroom is baseball themed! One caveat would be that there is very limited parking, a small parking lot on the property is there but it's not well marked and there are not many clear signs of where to park. But I managed to find parking in the adjacent streets. Con; limited parking not clear signs on where to park

My husband and I stopped in here when we got to Baltimore and it was a chill place to hang out for a few hours and kill some time. We just got beers and they have a good selection and all the beers we had were good! I got the sour and it was so good. It had earl grey tea and I could taste it a bit. My husband really liked the Hillbilly gold. It was a good Pilsner and a good example of the style.

Nice new spot to hangout and grab a beer in Baltimore. Right by the horseshoe and stadium. The parking is a bit hit or miss but the location is huge. Big open indoor space, plenty of seating. Kid/family friendly as you'll see plenty of strollers. They have space for games, pinball, skeeball. The bar/beer service is knowledgeable and friendly. The food option is a bit lacking but they do have basic snack to enjoy with your beer. Really like seeing more places like this opening up in Baltimore. Worth a visit to check out.

New location review: I can’t express how wowed I was with everything Checkerspot had to offer. The port industrial/maritime ambiance, the high ceilings and lofted area, the artwork and most importantly the beers - all excellent. I will be coming back.

Great atmosphere! Huge selection which includes all beer types, cider, seltzer, and all made in house! Has some games and stuff too!

This is my first time to Checkerspot's new place! Bigger, spacious, same great beers! There is some parking directly around the building and game lots nearby. On an end of December Saturday afternoon, there was no problem getting parking right outside. A wide array of seating options - bar, high top, and low tables with a stage in the corner. Having not been here in awhile, I asked the friendly bartenders for a suggestion and opted for Bird is the Word, Honey Kolsh. Perfect for a light beer drinker like myself. Hubs got Sip Happens Sour, also delish. Can't wait to come back!

Congratulations on your new location near the M&T Bank stadium if you like great beers and amazing food with the best bartenders, just remember that this is the place to be!
I love the markets here. They have a great beer and food menu, too.

Great beer, cool space, chill vibe, wonderful people! Visited on a Tuesday night, and it immediately felt like I was a local. In the couple hours I was there, the crowd grew from a few quiet conversations to different groups of people mingling and drawing me, a solo traveler, in to feel at home. The beers are a little hop heavy at times, but well made with a thoughtful and inspired lineup.

Great beer in a really nice location. We were fans before the move and have to say this is a great move! First time in they were playing my favorite music tyler and sturgill and the bartender was very friendly, They have a great starter pinball lineup ? and skeeball too. I could see ifpa league nights happening here if they expand. Very nice! Cheers.

Their new location is a lot nicer inside than their old one was. It's very open and spacious so you can spread out. I came here on a Thursday night for trivia with some friends. We got there early and had fun playing some board games before it started. The trivia is set up in the back area with lots of tables and chairs. It was a full crowd the night we went. I'm not the biggest beer fan so I got berry seltzers throughout the night which were light and quite good. My dog also got to join in on the fun and had a great time being with everyone. Trivia night was a blast and I definitely want to come back!
