31 Best Craft Breweries in Nashville

“Really, really good food and beer! Awesome clean spot!!“

“Had the ribs and collards yesterday evening , both were outstanding. Highly enjoyed“

“This is such a friendly place. We stopped in to try a beer after an event in Nashville. Unfortunately my husband, unfamiliar with my hybrid, left it in battery mode in the parking lot. When we exited it was dying. Everyone was so helpful from patron to employee. Our primary Good Samaritan works here. He phoned a friend for information, then got the car open and charged our battery. I loved the beer, loved their mural and their story and now I am so grateful for their kindness. We need more people like these. We need to be people like this. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!“

“We stopped in on a Tuesday afternoon and were thrilled they had 2 for 1 beers! I love the vibe, the scenery, the drafts, and the bartender was very nice & helpful. Also big compliments to whoever takes care of the plants! I've never seen so many live plants thriving like that!“

“We really loved Southern Grist when we first found it. Great craft beers and a great food menu, but as of late, the food menu disappoints. Anyone can do burgers and beers. Bring back the chicken sandwich, bao buns and vinegar potatoes. Your menu made you unique now you’re just like everyone else.“

“This place was great! It is air conditioned AND dog friendly! We brought our three doggos in here while we were road tripping through. The bartender was extremely kind and patient and friendly! We loved talking with him! The drinks were delicious and they had an extremely yummy food menu that we didn’t check out but I wish we had! The sandwiches looked great and I loved the combinations of them! The vibe is extremely chill and I love their furniture too!!! Would absolutely recommend this place to anyone and everyone ◡̈“

“Awesome family run brewery with fantastic beers!“

“Really, really good food and beer! Awesome clean spot!!“

“What a fun place!! Off the beaten track but worth the journey. Welcoming and engaging staff. The staff seems to authentically enjoy working together so it brings a really great vibe to the place. Solid beer selection, the Kolsch and the Celwric grounds were our favorite. Convenient parking“

“From the Chicago area, friendly and helpful staff, DELICIOUS IPAS (crisp and hoppy) and walked in to them playing the Spongebob movie downstairs. Played Mario Kart on the switch with a beer in hand 5“

“Dillon was a gem 🍺 full of knowledge and great stories he is willing to share! loved the atmosphere of this brewery in NashVegas! definitely true to brewery standards, go check em out!“

“Great casual place to get a pint (or three). They have an amazing selection of beers and all of them are brewed by Yazoo. Didn't try the on site food vendor, but there is a food available if you're looking for a bite. Would recommend for a drink with a friend or a large group.“

“Love the vibe and greenery, and the coffee is delicious! Probably my favorite in Nashville!The barista put so much thought and time into making my friend's tea, which was impressive and smelled incredible. Great place to do quiet work or meet others for a work meeting during the day.“

“Thank you Kent for a fantastic brewery tour. We learned a lot and appreciated your hospitality, expertise and generosity!“

“The pizza is ok. Is it better than Manny’s at the Arcade was? No. Is it better than 5 Points? Debatable. It is definitely top 10 in Middle Tennessee. The crust has a great crunch. The crust flavor is a 3/5. Marinara is a 3/5 there is nothing special about it. Cheese is good quality, toppings are very good and push this pizza to a 4/5. Long wait for pizza to come out but great atmosphere and waitstaff was top notch. Great place to take the family. There is a pay parking lot next door for $10.99 you can park for 12 hours.“

“My favorite place. Great beers, ciders, and food. but a special shout out to all the wonderful staff - past and present - that make it a special place! ❤️🤘“

“First time visiting and loved it. The space is awesome and there’s even a stage set up outside the taproom for bands to play. Ended up ordering the pepperoni and hot honey pizza with their simple salad. The pizza was thin crust super cheesy! Delicious!“

“This little gem was a perfect Thursday night dinner spot!! We arrived around 8pm and had just missed the live music. We had the chicken sandwich and burger. Both were absolutely amazing! Their housemade sweet pickles were very unique and the perfect addition to both sandwiches. The fries were so crispy and tasty. Everyone at the table cleared their plates.
The cocktails and beer were DELICIOUS!! There was ample patio space and even seating in the actual brewery.
If you haven't eaten here, it is definitely worth a quick trip to Sobro to experience it.“

“My husband and I love this coffee shop and brewery. It’s a quiet spot for a couple hours of work outside the house during the day, and in the evening it is a sweet place for a beer and conversation. Most recently we happened in on a Wednesday evening with a jazz jam session and performance going on. I recognized some of the musicians as major studio session artists and touring artists.

Meanwhile, their barrel aged beers are probably the best locally brewed dark beers available in Nashville right now.

Their offerings include a variety of craft styles that are not widely made, as well as some solid IPAs. If you are a beer person, you should definitely stop in.“

“What a beautiful hidden gem! My husband and I have been here a couple of times and our last time we went was so wonderful. It’s a relaxed vibe that is also very well put together so you can come dressed up or in relaxed clothing and you’ll fit right in either way. We both got sake flights and oh my goodness- each flavor was phenomenal! My favorites were the Cloud Palace and the Gunma(I apologize if I spelled that wrong). Not only were the drinks delicious, the service was top notch- Noah was very knowledgeable and friendly to chat with! Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to relax after work or have a quite date night.“

“Always a Highlight at BNA - Tennessee Brew Works

Every time I travel through Nashville, I make it a point to stop by Tennessee Brew Works-and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, with super comfy bar stool seating that makes it easy to settle in whether you're grabbing a quick pint or hanging out for a bit.

The staff here are top-notch, and I have to give a special shoutout to Alex, who is an absolute gem of a bartender. Friendly, attentive, and always on point-Alex makes the experience even better.

This place has become a go-to for me several times a year, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommend for anyone passing through!“

“Tori is amazing always knows who I am and what I’ll ask for!!“

“Good food and Great Beer. Oh and the stall is good as well. I can see me going back many more times.“

“Amazing friggen beer at the airport! I got the tall boy Sue and my wife got the Saison de Bois. Both were unique and amazing. The service was fast and efficient, we only had 8 minutes to boarding and were able to get our drinks and polish them off without having to pour them in the trash.“

“Great atmosphere! Fun spot“

“Had an awesome time with friends. It was great really look forward to doing it again.“

“Lexi, our server was delightful and efficient.. the carnivore pizza and greek salad were delicious! And the fella who seated us was friendly and polite. Great experience!!“

“We truly appreciate Shona for bringing our food out and going the extra mile to get some water for our dogs. Her kindness and thoughtfulness made our experience even better. Excellent customer service, and we are very grateful!🐾❤“

“We didn't plan on visiting Ole Smoky, but it was on our way from dinner to the hotel. They have a bar on one side and a gift shop/tasting area on the other. We went in curious and ended up spending way more than intended - which is their motif operandi.
We got talked into a moonshine tasting by an employee, met some people celebrating a birthday, and left, two hours later, with three jars of moonshine and half a dozen gifts.
Overall fun, but can get expensive. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, that's not why people visit.“
