8 Best Craft Breweries near Akron

“Popped into Magic City Brewery on a Sunday for brunch, and let me tell you, the brews here are so good they had me wondering if they’ve discovered the secret to happiness in a pint glass! These beers are dangerously delicious—like, “text your boss you’re not coming in tomorrow” kind of good. And when you pair them with Cult Kitchen’s grub, it’s a match made in boozy brunch heaven. Fair warning: after a few of these brews, you might find yourself making some questionable life choices… like ordering another round. Totally worth it!“

“Very cool brewery! I got a Good Kind of Funky and a Pixel art. Also had the BBQ Chicken Flatbread. Many varieties of beers including sours, lagers, and IPAs. They ever have a Saison which I loved! I bought a bottle to take home. Cool interior as well with a modern aesthetic. Lots of pinball machines and a variety of board games available to play with friends. I will definitely return!“

“Great environment for watching sports!“

“Hoppin Frog has our hearts—well, at least our taste buds—hooked on their shandys! The rotating hot sauce is like a spicy game of Russian roulette, and we’re here for it. Paired with their chip dip, it’s a match made in snack heaven. As for the wings, let’s just say you can save your time and money for more shandy—because that’s where the real magic happens. Ribbit your way over here and thank me later!“

“The Christmas Ale is amazing.“

“Last night, we held my husband's 50th birthday party at Thirsty Dog Tap House. What a perfect place to have a celebration! Manager Toni took care of every detail from advising on the right amount of food and ensuring enough seating and tables for our large group to pacing the food so the apps and pizzas were always fresh and warm. She and her "brew crew" took great care of our guests with friendly, helpful service throughout the evening. If you're looking for a place to have a large gathering, look no further than Thirsty Dog Tap House. Thank you, Toni and staff, for making this party a success!“

“I come to Hoppin Frog once a month because of the beer and the people. Real talk, I meet a new person here every Friday Happy Hour that rocks. Bartenders rock, give great recommendations and always room to take beers home. Shout out to Tatianna!“

“Went to Caston & Main Brew Yard last night with the wife. Great food. We ordered the caston flatbread and some wings! Rico is the man. Very friendly and outgoing! Will definitely be back soon!“
