24 Best Craft Breweries in Knoxville

Barrelhouse by Gypsy Circus Brewery •
621 Lamar St, Knoxville

“Barrelhouse is my go-to for a quick drink and bite to eat. Friendly bartenders, reasonable prices, good food, clean environment, it is precisely what I seek for a relaxing evening.

Hannah and Winter are particularly great. Their drink recommendations are well-thought out and not merely the most expensive drink on the menu. They, as well as the other workers, foster a nice and hospitable environment.

Cheers!“

Fanatic Brewing Company Brewery • $
2735 N Central St, Knoxville

“Great place for not just excellent beers but great music (Slade Adams Band) the night we were there. The place seems to have only a skeleton crew (like so many understaffed business now) but they hustle doing their best to make sure you get prompt service. Try their IPA with a hint of habanero. Delicious and the heat does not overpower the hops flavor.“

Last Days Of Autumn Brewing Brewery • $
808 E Magnolia Ave, Knoxville

“I'm glad I chose this place for a quick bite to eat and a beer. Nick the bartender learned your name and called you it throughout your visit. Being from Tampa, I ordered the Tampa Cuban and was pleasantly surprised. It was delicious. In fact, better than a lot I have had in Tampa. I will definitely make it a point to go back if I'm ever in town again.“

Elst Food Truck Brewery •
2419 N Central St, Knoxville

“They had tacos for a little while and those were delicious. They recently transitioned to burgers and beer cheese / pretzel bites which are also great with one of the delicious Elst beers (currently loving their Rogenbier) and if you want a treat, try the chili on the side with the beer cheese. ? we live in the neighborhood and have definitely appreciated an additional dinner option on those nights when you just don’t want to cook.“

Alliance Brewing Co Brewery • $

“Madi Gras was epic here. Kids made beads and masks. Just perfect. Family, single, couples or groups no matter the size this brewery caters to all. 2 rooms. Plenty of board games. TVs for your enjoyment. The best part was the mixologists. They can serve a good drink and actually care about your experience. Prices are reasonable. Their own brewery on site. Any employee you ask is so happy to answer any questions. they show that they want to work there. That says a lot for today. We will definitely make this a normal place to chill. Cheers“

Albright Grove Brewing Company Brewery • $
2924 Sutherland Ave, Knoxville

“Great atmosphere. Upstairs and downstairs seating. Upstairs has darts. Outside seating as well for those with dogs. Beer selection was decent. Tried a flight with an IPA, cellar beers, and helped. They were ok just not the best I have ever had. IPA tasted the best, could really taste the hops and grain notes. Helles was a little bland in taste. They do offer snacks. Parking behind building and is free.“

“The ordering is confusing with the brewery and an extreme lack of signs. The lady at the counter was friendly and courteous. The food was good, but a bit on the higher price for what you get, and you have to go to the bar for any and all drinks, including water or set tea.“
