10 Best Craft Breweries in Memphis

“So friendly and excellent beer selection. You're spoiled for choice when it comes to beers, they were delicious and we found the service excellent. The place is very large and would be great for group events if you were ever hosting one. Overall tops!“

“Great beer and great people. Did I mention great beers.“

“Memphis Filling Station has quickly become my favorite brewery in Memphis, and it's not just because the beer. It's the whole operation. Small-batch brewing done with real intention, staff who clearly care, and a tap list that isn't afraid to take chances.

The standout for me was the Chanclas de Abuela, a barrel-aged Hot Mexican Chocolate Imperial Stout. The barrel aging gives it a rounded, mellow depth instead of raw alcohol heat, the chocolate comes through rich and dessert-like without tipping into syrupy, and the chili brings a mellow warmth that lingers on the finish.

What keeps me coming back, though, is how the place is run. The owners and staff are conversational, knowledgable, and share an enthusiasm for good, creative beer. Free popcorn, oversized calzones, pizza, and my personal favorite, nachos. (The chips don't get soggy in 5 minutes.)

If you're visiting Memphis and looking for a brewery, put this on the top of your list. Order the Chanclas de Abuela if it's still on tap. It's worth building an evening around.“

“Excellent evening, fun band. I don’t typically like craft beer but the Golden is excellent.“

“Definitely the best brewery in Memphis! Travis makes great beers true to style“

“We visited Memphis with our friends and three kids. Grind City was a hit with the kids, who played around and were thrilled to see the fireflies. The place was clean and well-maintained, with a nearby park and trail. We also tried several different beers, all of which were great.“

“Fantastic brews and digs. must stop for beer lovers“

“The beers were great. We did a tasting flight with a wide variety of styles. Every beer was solid. The lunch special was a great deal. I visit a lot of breweries in a lot of places and this one rates very high on my list. I would definitely return if visiting Memphis in the future. The people serving were all top tier.“

“Same street as our airbnb. Ample chooses of craft beer. The staff was knowledgeable and attentive. The beers we sampled were very good. They had a game room. A room for live music. They did have a band while we were there but there was a small cover charge. They did have bar food menu.“
