Bad Idea Brewing Company

Stoping on my travels and I love breweries. Ethan was amazing. Sandwich and slaw were on point, paired perfectly with an alcohol seltzer. Only thing I wish was able to get a sticker to add to my collection, they didn’t have any😥😥

Love the beer and the friendless of the staff! Also love that we were able to bring our pup in on a rainy day! Can't wait to come back again!

This place is amazing. Super welcoming environment, great staff, and some of the best beers in the south east. Some “weird” reviews but don’t be fooled by the trolls. This place is a gem in Muletown.

Wonderful evening celebrating 5 years of Bad Idea Brewing yesterday. Lucky enough to run into Justin Jones, State Representative. Perfect mix of the best people, food and beer. Can’t wait to return.

We have been patrons of Bad Idea for 5 years. I am always so impressed with the atmosphere and the beer. The staff are friendly and helpful. It’s a great place to meet friends and make new friends. I love their partners Ollie and Finns just as much. A place where all are welcome and safe.

The IPA that was recommended was not very good. Not a great atmosphere and as a conservative Christian it did not feel like a safe space.

Update: I think the owners response shows great ignorance. The owner makes assumptions about myself and puts the blame back on me and even suggests that maybe there is no public place where I would feel safe and that I am the one who is not tolerant. If a gay person had made this comment, my guess is that the response would have been quite different. No, you do not honestly welcome everyone and you need to look at your own viewpoints more honestly and do better to actually do what you say.

On our stop it was a rather negative vibe. The staff were not friendly. The beer was mediocre. We did not order food based on the above

When we walked in, we wanted to immediately walk out but didn't want to be rude, so we got beer. The atmosphere is unappealing at best, the beer is mediocre, and the staff were uninviting. I guess this is the new location but honestly there are several better places for a beer and a meal within 5 minutes. We couldn't leave fast enough.

Had a great time here! Carrie has great customer service and was super helpful. I recommend the Orange Crush seltzer!

Still one of the best breweries in middle Tennessee. I do miss the old location and outdoor space, but now there is an outstanding sandwich shop and you’re walking distance to everything the square offers.

Mothman sandwich and dirty cucs were an absolute hit. They flew off my plate faster than the mythical creature itself. The White IPA might have flown too close to the sun though ?

Incredibly interesting menu of food and beers. Great quality on both sides.

The only place in town where I sit and drink beer. These are some of my favorite people and I feel at home.

I got the sandwich I didn’t know I needed or wanted.

Woke up Saturday morning and my girlfriend wanted to check this place out. I wasn’t feeling a sandwich, but I went along because I wear the pants…. but she picks them out. We get to the place and get in line. It’s the kind of place where you order and then take a seat. I ordered and IPA and she ordered the seltzer. We sit and her eyes light up as she sips her drink. I take a sip and her 6.6% drink tastes like an ICE you buy from Kroger! That drink would be DANGEROUS! About 10 min goes buy and they call our name for our food. I ordered the Coyote Club with a cup of loaded potato soup and the chips, she orders the Borda with chips. My first bite into this mouth watering sandwich had my eyes shoot open in amazement! It was undoubtedly THE best sandwich I have ever eaten! I’m the kind of guy who can order an appetizer, meal, and a desert and still not be full and then eat my girlfriends… well, this sandwich, soup, and chips filled me right up. This place is amazing. The people are friendly, the drinks great, and the food is out of this world! 100% recommended!

I ordered a shirt like 6 months ago before they moved to the new location, but the second I came in the door, Kassi called my name and said, \\\"We'll get your shirt!\\\" I sampled the pilsner, alt and pale ale - all great! Bought some stickers too! (It's not like I am a regular customer - I had only been there twice before this trip - so OUTSTANDING customer service!)
