We are so sad to see Invictus go! My husband and I love our weekly date night seeing the best bartenders who’ve become our friends. The family atmosphere that we’ve enjoyed for the last 10 years will be lost and no big stores or chains can replace our fav local spot. These guys know your name when you walk in and we will miss them so much! Thank you for the amazing service, great drinks and wonderful memories!

Invictus Brewing is a decent little brewery. They are paired with Tipsy Steer restaurant so you have plenty of food options. They have a big open space with plenty of seating and a patio for those looking for vitamin D. The service was friendly and had lots of TVs with sports.
For beer they had: a blonde ale, salted blonde ale, a peach wheat, maple brown ale, red ale, pale ale, IPA, NEIPA, hazy IPA, citra IPA, Russian imperial stout, fruited sour, 2 apple ciders, and some seltzers and lemonade.
I enjoyed my stop, the beer was good, and the service and patrons were friendly. I would stop here again.

Great atmosphere, nice employees, the drinks I had were great, so much ao I went and bought a few of the bourbon barrel stoudts they had to being home to MD to share with my friends. I had the Nashville Hot chicken from the attacehd restaurant, whoch was also awesome. But what really made this a great expirence was I accidentally forgot to take or get my credit card back and the bartender tried reached out to me after I had left to return it. He went above and beyond what I would normally expect. I let him know it was taken care of and it was no worries. It great to see an honest employee or person in the world we live in, you are lucky to have a great employee like this. Cheers and I will plan to come back again if hockey ever brings us back to the area.

I think it’s more alive because they also have tipsy steer across the room. When it only Invictus by itself, it doesn’t seem attractive enough for people to come just for their beers

The Food was delicious. The portion were perfect. I ordered the sunnie & chips. Not greasy at all which I was worried about or batter being too thick. The fish was fried lightly in batter. My son had the Philly Steak and daughter the pickle pizza. They loved it. My husband and I got our beers pretty fast. Service was very good. My husband and son shared the cookies n cream milkshake. It’s pretty big. Very family friendly brewery. It wasn’t loud. We were able to hear our friends on our table. It wasn’t super packed for a Saturday and I really enjoyed that. The bathrooms were very clean.

Any other day of the week, and with my previous experiences here, I'd be giving this place a full 5 stars, and it saddens me that that rating has changed because of one employee's poor attitude...
My husband and I absolutely love this place and this has been a go-to place of ours for years now. We've recommended it to anyone coming in from out of town or that had recently moved here, and we'd love to continue to do so.
Last Wednesday afternoon though, I came here with my parents (who live 2.5 hours away), my sister and a family friend visiting from out of the country. I brought along two growlers to be refilled, and my parents brought one from last time they were around. The guy at the bar (maybe mid-30's, blonde hair, backwards cap) was quite rude to my Dad when asking for a growler refill - which surprised me, being this is a brewery. The growler ended up being set at the back counter for a good 20 minutes (untouched), until I came up and also asked for my growlers to be refilled. I asked for refills and he acted the same way - like it was this huge burden to fill growlers at a brewery. At that point, he had finally grabbed my parents growler that was still behind the bar and began to fill the three of them. I was watching him fill them and they were very foamy, poor fills - not even filled to the 64oz line when settled. We paid them - I paid for my two, and called it a day (should not have tipped him but I did lol). Later on, we noticed my parents were apparently charged for two growler refills when they only had one refill. I'm not sure if that's been solved yet, but my mom has reached out to hopefully resolve this. It's difficult now because they live 2.5 hours away...
We've always loved this place and have asked for many refills during significantly busier times of day than a Wednesday afternoon and had no issues or snarky customer service. I'm really hoping this was just a fluke thing and we don't have to run into this again - especially the overcharge. This is our favorite brewery and part of that is because of the great customer service we've received up until now. Hopefully we don't run into this again!

The atmosphere was nice, just the right amount of people and not over crowded or too noisy. It’s great to just order drinks and food from your table, with there being plenty of food options. They seem to have a great happy hour as well, I’ll be back!
Strawberry lychee smoothie sour was very unappetizing, couldn't get past the presentation, texture, or color. It was brown and chunky, and all over the glass, it looked like vomit. I've had smoothie sours before, and this is not what I expected, even strangers at the bar commented on it. We asked to switch drinks and they were very accommodating, but that drink was such a miss.

My wife and I went here to check it out and we're disappointed. We walked in and waited to be seated but our host ran away from us and we had to find him. Once we sat down we had to order from our phones. I personally hate this but it's whatever. I went and got a couple of beers and I love IPAs but the two we got we couldn't even finish them. Maybe there are better flavors... I don't know but the hazy crazy ipazy was OK at best, and so was the avenger ipa was undrinkable. The food was average and over priced. Spent 100 dollars for average food and mediocre beer. Probably won't go back unless they lower prices.

I’ve been to a lot of taprooms. If I was going to open one, I’d want it to be just like Invictus! The beer is very good, but the rare few I don’t care for, like the Nut Goodie Stout, someone else will love. And the food selection from the Tipsey Steer is very good too, especially the Armadillo Eggs. Highly recommended! BTW, I’m heading there again to meet up with some friends in a few minutes…

Lots of great food and drinks options. Fresh and creative. Our kids enjoy the kids meals. The burgers are solid and they have rotating and flagship beers and other drinks.
Parking: It can get packed during peak times.
Kid-friendliness: Kids meals and very welcoming. Lots of sports teams hang out here with parents after games.
Wheelchair accessibility: Tables are a little tight but plenty of handicapped parking.
