Stopped in for a drink. Asked for a couple of waters cause we were riding bikes, which never came. The restaurant was not busy. Waitress came to the table once and never returned. My wife's rhubarb old fashioned it's very expensive. We had to walk over to the bar to pay our bill.

We always enjoy going to Sylvan Brewing when we visit Lanesboro. Very nice patio to sit outside and have one of their brews. The Daisy was my wife’s favorite and I like the Willow. If the weather isn’t as nice, they have comfortable indoor seating. They now have pizza’s (frozen) that looked good, which is a nice option if you get hungry when there isn’t a food truck.

Good selection of brews

I tried several beers -- all excellent examples of their type! And all low ABV, so I can walk out of here!

I ordered a scotch ale and it was amazing. Great staff, purchased a tshirt and pint koozie. A must stop if you're in the area. I was very impressed with Lanesboro and hope to return again...Great town!

Andy, Karen and Team, thanks for all that you do and the great beer that you keep innovating on. The Daisy Hazy is the best. So many great beers . Andy, it was so great that you could come out and talk with Jan and I. It means a lot to us. I still remember when you opened when we came to visit and how much we loved it. You are doing really great things and that is why we keep coming back. Keep that train a rollin’!
Great beer, wonderful atmosphere and fantastic staff!

We visited Sylvan Brewery in April while exploring the quaint town of Lanesboro. Although the trees hadn’t bloomed yet, you can tell this place would be absolutely stunning once spring is in full swing—nestled right in the scenic bluff country.
The brewery itself is really well-built with a cozy, welcoming vibe. There’s plenty of seating inside, plus a great outdoor area that I can imagine would be perfect on a warm day.
They offer a great variety of beers to suit most palates. We tried a flight that included: • Lanesbrew (American Lager) – Crisp and super refreshing, one of our favorites. • Willow Citrus Wheat Ale – Light and citrusy, great for an easy sip. • Gnarly Old Ale – Rich, flavorful, and full of character—definitely a standout. • Butterbeer Weisse – A fun, slightly sweet way to wrap things up. It made a great final note to the tasting.
On top of the drinks, they also offer pizza and a few snacks onsite, which is a nice bonus if you’re feeling a little hungry while you sample.
Overall, Sylvan Brewery is a solid stop if you’re in or around Lanesboro. Great beer, good vibes, and I’m sure the view gets even better as the season turns. Would definitely return!
Pretty nice place to stop for a beer. We were riding the Root River trail, and needed a break, and this was the perfect place.
I had the Porter, which was very good. My wife had the Amber Ale, which she liked, but not loved.
They had live music (Sunday afternoon about 3pm late September), indoors and outdoors seating.
Good beers, great environment, engaged staff! Will be back.
Friendly staff, enjoyed our flight, excellent cran-orange sour and amerreto sour
