Had an awesome experience at this brewery! This was one of the two breweries I went to in Knoxville and the beer was excellent! I had the Italian Pilsner and a Brown ale I believe. The bartender and patrons were also real fun to talk with and friendly. I really love the charming atmosphere of this old brewery and this is definitely not the kind of brewery I would see in Charlotte (where I live), so was a real experience drinking in an old historic looking building in the Old City.
Good beer, walkable from nearly everywhere. You get to watch glass blowing!!
Top 10 Favorite Brewery - my favorite stop in Knoxville
They needed better beer options.
Fantastic beer. Cool art great bartenders. Highly recommend
I wanted to get a beer after dinner tonight, and was completely ignored by the bartenders. This is the second time this has happened to me. I don't understand why I, and several other reviewers, have had this experience. I see tons of great reviews about the staff, and I saw the bartenders engaging customers, they just didn't seem to want look at me standing by the register and say hi, or ask if I would like anything.
At least I learned my lesson this time, I definitely won't be back.
Great local selection, fun vibe and kind service from Lynn! Thanks Lynn for being so friendly - it was the reason we came back for ‘seconds and thirds’ LOL
The beer and seltzer here is delicious! The bar staff is super friendly. I had a great time and will go back when I'm back in Knoxville
Tater tot best tasting beer I've had in a while, cool spot
Very intimate, funky little place. Keep in mind there is no outdoor seating. Great beer and service.

Good vibes all around. Service (Lynn was awesome!), beer, ciders, plants. Definitely would recommend checking it out. And glass blowing next door (sadly not on Sundays).
Absolutely the coolest bar I've been to in Knoxville. I loved the beer (got the tater tot), got to drink it out of a hand blown glass, and I pet a dog. 10/10 experience
Beer selection is good and it has a very pleasant environment. Bartender did not seem to notice me even though I’m 6’4 and quite striking but I’ll get over it. The couple next to seemed to express the same sentiment on the service. I’ll give the place another shot someday and revise, but for now I’ll say if you come don’t expect great service.
Friendly staff, good beer, relaxing environment. Perfect way to wrap up the day after exploring downtown Knoxville.
Cool beer venue with amazing live music! Great location and local brews -
