17 Best Craft Breweries near Mason

“Tried all 13 on tap. Nothing bad to say about any of them. Worth the trip.“

“Space they have, parking is good, family friendliness they have, they are clean, they offer food that's above the standard, pet friendly, But but but that damn waiting line, You don't command that kind of price and then offer a logistical nightmare of a long waiting line I don't care to stay to enjoy that option in time. The beer is great and they change the menu often, but not enough for me to come out there in the middle of nowhere. Let’s be honest, they are good for large groups and summer outings but they just never man the front bar enough.“

“They have the BEST STAFF! ❤️ highly recommend and Ashley is doing great things there for 16 lots.“

“Great service, good food and drink! Even though they don't take reservations, we worked with Dre to bring a reunion group of 20 on a Saturday. Everyone was kind, helpful and accommodating. Thanks so much for a wonderful evening!“

“Always fantastic. Go for the fries, stay for the blue cheese. Oh yeah, they have meats too. I usually get the spicy garlic on the wings, but they were kind enough to give me a cup on the side of the Chernobyl to try. It is very hot, but I would not say super hot. If you regularly eat habanero sauces and want more then this is probably a good heat level for you. It also has a good flavor, it’s not just hot for sake of being hot. Everyone there is super friendly also. Great atmosphere. Cool aesthetic. There is often live music on the weekends, which can be a bit loud and it definitely gets busy. Not a negative, just something to be aware of. Come during off hours if you don’t want that. I wish I could just buy a jug of the blue cheese. Maybe I can, but I haven’t asked.“

“The variety of beers, atmosphere, and knowledge of the staff hooked me on the first trip. Every beer has been a winner so far. The visiting taco truck was also a huge plus. We will be back often.“

“Friend and I went for Tune Trivia (we lost) and had a fantastic time. Cool space, easy parking, and great people.

Bartenders were able, eager, and willing to engage my friend (with minimal beer knowlege) as to what might suit her palette. She got a blueberry ale and I got a flight including seltzer, weisse, marzen, and cider. Everything was excellent. Props to the brewers for that Weiss! It has a mild, clean tartness and the blueberry mellows out the crisp flavor. Effervescent and light.

Kitchen was easily accessible and had a great workflow. Those buzzers work wonders for window traffic. Everyone was super attentive and friendly. My friend got the Mac n' Cheese flight and it is absolutely worth the hype. Her favorite was the Buffalo, but all were excellent. The pickled onions made the BBQ sample. I got the chicken wings with habañero sauce and they were amazing! Habañero sauce was excellent and the smokey crispness of the wings was excellent. That sauce is only for hot-heads, though! Excellent flavor with great heat.“

“My bud and I visited yesterday (Sunday) and we liked the beer and the place BUT they have an image problem...outside, it looks like a liquor store on a side street, and not a "lodge" nor a "brewing company." Inside, it could use some overstuffed furniture and not only pub tables. Our GPS could not even find it! I hope that the next time we are in the area, it will be a much more aesthetic (as well as alcoholic) experience!“

“Great place with amazing beers / cocktails, friendly staff and great food. 10/10“

“This has become a regular place to go. Large selection of draft craft beers. Great pizza.

Update: still love this place. The guy providing the music tonight had stolen my playlist. Queen, Prince, Tom Petty, CCR and Stevie Wonder. Very cool.“

“Fast service with great food and even better bartenders at this location! 10/10“

“Great brewery. Will definitely come back.“

“There are so many things to like about Valley Vineyards and the brewery. First, it has beer and wine to choose from. And both are very tasty. And a good selection to choose from. Also some blushes. Second ( we did the cookout) a very reasonably price meal with drinks. The cookout let's you choose a protein(steak, shrimp, salmon, crab cakes) along with salad, buffet and desert. You cook your protein, which may be a turn off for some. Third, the staff was very friendly and helpful, especially with drink selections. This is a nice event dinner.“

“When visiting Lebanon, we stopped by this brewery as we love to sample local beers during vacation and we couldn’t have been more pleased!! Food was amazing with large healthy portions, and the beers were SO good. We even bought a growler to go and made a second trip there during our stay. Coming from Louisiana, we tend to understand that other places don’t have as seasoned of food… but this is the exact opposite for this place! Food was AMAZING, and very flavorful!! Can’t wait to come back and visit!“

“Great and fun atmosphere. Indoor and outdoor seating. Typically 20 beers on tap including some ciders. Food selection of their spirits as well. Extremely friendly staff. Also great pizza options as well. They also have a variety of games available too.“

“Checking off Cincy breweries led us here. This place is pure outdoorsy, beer enthusiast perfection. We had the New England IPA and it’s top tier. Bon fire, igloos, most amazing food at the food truck and a real community feel…make this place at the top of the Cincy brewery list!“

“We had my daughter and son in laws wedding reception here tonight and it was absolutely AMAZING! We had 100+ people and the staff was so friendly and attentive. Having that many people can sometimes be overwhelming but they wowed us. We did a buffet style for food and everything was delicious, hot and we couldn't keep enough wings in the pan....on the wings order double what you think you will need (they are that good). The bride and groom brought their record player and some records. The staff helped us by getting a large speaker and hooking it up so we could enjoy their music choices. Little things like that mean a lot. If you are looking for a unique, super accommodating, attentive and friendly experience I HIGHLY recommend Cartridge Brewing, let them host your special day too! We enjoy going frequently for dinner and to watch Bengals games but now that we know how awesome they are at hosting large parties we will definitely be doing more of those as well!! Thanks everyone!!!“
