Great place to hangout with friends or just grab a beer by yourself. Beers are well priced and their food is top notch.
Beer is solid, but it feels like they started setting up a Steampunk taproom and got bored halfway through. The theme is very thinly coating an otherwise very bare setup.
Just set your expectations lower and enjoy the solid brews.

Small, cozy pub with a good selection of craft beers on tap and bottles/cans. They also offer some wine, whisky, cider, and meads. A limited food menu brings some lite pub fare, sandwiches, and snacks.

Firstly, my friend and I picked this specific location because we are both fans on "Steampunk", and we were both pretty disappointed in that regard. So, if that's a theme you're looking for, definitely lower your expectation.
Secondly, it's a lot smaller than I anticipated and it was pretty full (it was a Saturday evening), and all the talking from everyone just made the room REALLY loud and I had to shout for normal conversation. I think that's pretty normal for a bar, so expect that during the busy hours.
Thirdly, staff was friendly and as attentive as I would expect for how busy it was. The food (bratwurst and fries) were delish and so were our drafts.
Lastly, kudos to whoever keeps that bathroom clean and smelling good! Cleanest public bathroom I have EVER used! Cleaner than the ones where I work LOL.

I love the development of new businesses in Downtown Utica and enjoy trying them. However, I was not impressed here. No one on staff said hi when we came in on a Saturday evening, we had to approach the bar to order, or even be noticed. There isn't much going on - no music, the crowd wasn't lively or buzzing, and the place smells strange when you walk in. I'd love to see some changes to these particulars. There is possibly hope for it, so I'll try again another time when they aren't so new. But for the time being I'd rather go elsewhere.

I will second that this is Utica's 'CHEERS'.

This taproom is so simple and fun! The atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing night out on a date or even with a group! The sandwiches are EPIC! Definitely get the cheese melted on the chips, totally worth it!

Always a great time at this tiny taproom. Great selection of rotating local drafts and games to keep the table occupied. They are working on a food offering with some sandwiches that people seem to like but I can't speak to them yet.
