15 Best Craft Breweries near Cornelius

“Been coming here for years. This brewery is all about the beer. Staff is knowledgeable about everything they sell. EVERYTHING they make is good. I’ve literally never tried something here I didn’t like. Love the new seating area they recently opened up. If you haven’t tried this place you are missing out. Just great beer. Some of their best sellers are in cans to go, and they will refill your growler if that’s your preference (and doesn’t have to be theirs). Been to Lost Worlds, D9, Primal….the space is smaller, the beer is superior. Just wish I could get it at more local restaurants.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ BEST IPA’s AROUND! And the serve wine too 😍“

“Nice place to have a beer. Friendly staff, helpful and peasant to talk to. The beers I tried were well made and had nice flavor. This is good brewery. My only complaint is that they are not well known. Well at least to me. I found them by accident. I definitely recommend you going to one of their locations. Cheers.“

“Great beer and friendly staff!!“

“Hoptown has the absolute BEST staff! We are always greeted with smiles & kind words. There's a huge variety of beers & some cocktails to select from. There is always something fun to do from Singo to Trivia, live bands or markets you'll never be bored. Hoptown frequently has a great food truck rotation & if the food truck isn't your cup of tea Brooklyn Boys pizza delivers. There's also a wonderful little area to celebrate events. I have personally never had a party here but I've seen some beautiful baby showers & birthdays. If you haven't tried Hoptown you're missing out!“

“Went to Beer Lab for St. Pattys day weekend! Awesome time! Loved the live music, food came out relatively quick, and the atmosphere was so fun! Their bartender Tara was so nice and helpful in picking out beers and alternatives when the one I liked ran out. She was quick and so friendly. Will definitely be going back!“

“Trivia nights are the bomb!“

“A fantastic addition to downtown! If you want to host a party here or just low-key hang out with your people, this is the place! The owners have done such a great job going above and beyond for the safety for all family members, including fur or child. Excellent food trucks and drink selections. And they are always adding more comfort and design. You will not be disappointed!“

“This past Saturday I held my mother’s 75th birthday party at the restaurant. I live in Atlanta and have never eaten here, and completely went out on a limb based upon word-of-mouth. I worked closely with Andrew on all of the specific details to ensure that this was a spectacular event. I created my own menu for over 40 guests which included the Atlantic salmon, ribs, ribeye, Sal’s chicken, along with 3 other options for guests with a smaller appetite. Everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE was extremely pleased with the portions and taste of the food. Like me, most of our guests had never eaten here and simply could not believe the food quality. I am a steak connoisseur and my ribeye was among the best I’ve ever had! Our servers Courtney and Mikey were the BEST! From the moment I arrived, Courtney jumped in, went through possible seating arrangements, reviewed my menu and worked tirelessly to ensure my needs were met. Living in Atlanta, I have grown accustomed to top-tier service and I can honestly say that I received it. The space was extremely conducive for our event and the restrooms were clean and well maintained. Andrew, Courtney, and Mikey - thank you for living out impeccable customer service and helping us make my mother’s 75th birthday celebration a phenomenal event! See you on my next trip❤️“
