23 Best Craft Breweries near Maplewood

“Awesome brewery, if you're visiting STL and looking for a micro brewery to visit, this one should be atop your list. Amazing, eccentric brews that you won't find in other breweries IMO (I make it a point to visit most). Knowledgeable staff that will even give you their honest take other breweries nearby. If you want something to eat, the Spicy Chicken Sandwich is INCREDIBLE.“

“We stopped here for a beer when we had an hour or so to kill. I look forward to returning what I have more time and will it be able to eat some pizza? The beers were yummy. Since it was our first time, we had several five ounce pours, a great way to get to know a brewery. The pizza looked smelled delicious too.“

“We experienced the Clydesdale VIP tour yesterday and highly recommend it. Our guide was Randy and he did a fabulous job of sharing information regarding the history of Anheuser-Busch and how the Clydesdales became part of their iconic signature. The biggest thrill of the tour was meeting Lester, a semi retired former lead horse on a Clydesdale team. We were able to able to talk to him, pet him and take photos with him. It was a dream come true experience!“

“We did the Day Fresh tour on a Thursday morning (10:30am) in June. The tour lasted about 90 minutes with several stops during the tour. We visited the Clydesdale horses and stable, fermenting and bottling buildings, sampled beer while we learned about the ingredients in Budweiser beer, took a trolley ride back to the staring place, and ended the tour with a 20oz draft as part of the tour. Also part of the Day Fresh tour, everyone over 21 was given a bottle of beer that had been bottled less than 24 hours before. This tour was great-make sure to spend time in the gift shop after the tour. So many fun gifts and souvenirs. Highly recommend!!
*side note* closed toed shoes are highly recommended by AB“

“The beers here are top notch. The Little Birds Jamaican Lager is by far the best lager I have ever had in St Louis! The brewer was manning the bar there and he was very nice & attentive. I highly suggest a visit ASAP!“

“Me and my co workers came here when we visited St. Louis for a site visit. Loved the outside area, bet it’s nice in warmer weather. The beers were good, I had their Czech Pilsner. We also ordered a lot of food off the menu to share. Wish the pot pie had a little more salt but everything was still good!“

“All their beers are on point. Food from Sanguchitos within the brewery is rich and hearty. Amazing. We usually have kids in tow, so we love the collection of board games, video games(pop a shot, pacman, skiball, pinball) and table tennis outside.“

“Our October wedding at 2nd Shift Brewing was unforgettable! We had about 100 guests and everyone who attended raved about the great drinks and friendly bar staff. We rented out the venue from 5-10pm on Saturday night and the 2nd Shift team was so helpful in the planning process leading up to the event and setting up/executing the event on wedding day. We were so glad we chose 2nd Shift for our wedding and have no regrets!“

“Can’t say enough good things about this place!! I recently threw my husband’s 40th birthday here and it was truly perfect. The owners and staff were so incredibly kind, accommodating, helpful and just all around really great people! Not to mention everyone that came was really blown away by how perfect this space was! The inside/outside combo, how it’s super kid friendly and pet friendly was a massive bonus. Honestly nothing like this in STL. Thank you for being such a great addition to such a special milestone!“

“Great beer, food and atmosphere!“

“All around great evening. Beers world class and food was excellent.“

“We stopped here after Paint Louis as it was recommended for its Gluten-free menu and what a great find! The cider flight was perfect as was our appetizer, main meal and dessert (hey, ya gotta have dessert when the rest of the meal was so awesome!). We wound up taking 2 growlers of cider with us and will be back again!“

“Good food, great service, excellent beer“

“I recently hosted an event at Alpha Brewing, and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out! We used their private event room, which was spacious and perfect for our group of 20. We loved that we could use their audio system and had a TV we could control ourselves. The team at Alpha, especially Andrew, was fantastic in helping us play every detail (at a pretty last minute pace at that), from setting up the space to providing the catering through their on-site kitchen. The food was delicious and Alpha provides their own beer and seltzers, but also had cocktails on draft as well!

Communication was easy throughout the planning process, and they really went above and beyond to make sure our event was a success. If you're looking for a great brewery in St. Louis for hosting events (or just to hang out on their fabulous patio), with amazing food, beer, and services, I highly recommend Alpha Brewing.“

“My family ask to say Merry Christmas and say thank you for buying the Ford car that had a Handel no stearing wheel from 1901 with wooden spokes from herold niffin my step father from Benton Illinois back in 1985 thank you from our family to yours“

“Very good selection of beers with knowledgeable staff in a location that was convenient but not in the best neighborhood. Good neighborhood adjacent maybe. Definitely worth a daytime visit. Maybe nighttime if you're feeling adventurous.“

“Great Beers, food and atmosphere!“

“As a party of five, we ate lunch here after the Clydesdale VIP tour (also highly recommended).

We ordered the pretzel app which was very good. A couple of us ordered the brat and others got one of the salads. It was all very, very good. We considered coming back for dinner, but decided to try something closer to where we were staying.

Highly recommended!“

“Great crawfish boil and music“

“The food is great and the bartenders are super helpful.“

“I was at Rockwell Beer Company recently to celebrate my cousin's birthday. I don't drink, so I can't comment on the beer. The food, however, was good! I enjoyed The Rockwell burger along with the llama fries. The bacon jam on the burger was a tasty touch. I did enjoy the fries, but they might have had even too much sauce on them. Half of them got soggy before I could finish them, and I had to use a fork. They were most tasty, just messy. The building was cool and there were lots of TVs for enjoying sports. I'd definitely come back!“

“Great outdoor patio, a lot of good beer selections, and love their pretzel appetizer. The only reason I knocked off a star is because when I went they didnt have many wine offerings, I know this is a beer garden but as a non beer lover it just would've been nice to have a few options, but will definitely be back!“

“Great eats, drinks, service, and ambiance!“
