“Great place with great beer! I really appreciate that there is a description of the type of beer next to its name on the board. It's clear that the people who run this place are passionate about what they do. There was live music and a rustic comfortable atmosphere. It has its own parking lot and ample street parking due to a great location. Looking forward to frequenting Chappell Brewing many more times! Oh... And the artwork is impeccable. It's clear they have good taste!“

“I can’t vouch for much in Salt Lake City because it’s been without power or under construction, but Bewilder Brewing is easily 5/5. The absolute best fries and giant soft pretzels I have ever had, and I live in a heavily German city (Cincinnati). Cherry Mother Pucker by Bewilder also a solid 5/5 sour; great/ clean flavor! So good that we came back twice while in the area!!“

Epic Brewing Company Brewery • $
825 S State St, Salt Lake City - 2.23 miles

“Alright, buckle up buttercups, because my trip to Epic Brewing was more epic than the 49ers winning five Super Bowls (and hopefully a sixth next season) 🏆🏈🎉. It's my sacred day off ☀️, the stars have aligned for the NFL Draft 🍻, and yours truly is hosting a fiesta of football and flavor, headlined by my legendary bacon-wrapped jalapeno hot dogs 🌭🌶️🥓. Naturally, I needed the best beer to wash down those spicy bad boys, and let me tell you, Epic did not disappoint.
I went in thinking I'd grab maybe a dozen beers 🤷‍♂️, and then BAM! 💥 My arms were suddenly full of a whole flat 🛒🍺! I felt like I was back in the Golden State 🌴☀️, sampling killer flights with the absence of a repressive regime.. It was so educational 🤓, I practically have a PhD in deliciousness now! Huge shout out to Alec, the bartender 👨‍🍳🍻 – that dude knows his hops! And Ryan, the Utah Sales Rep, you’re a legend 😎. These guys didn't just serve beer; they delivered an experience 🤩.
Seriously, folks, my taste buds have officially declared their allegiance 👅❤️. Moving forward, if you see me anywhere near a State run liquor store , you have my permission to stage an intervention 🚨. Go see Alec and Ryan – they'll hook you up with the good stuff 👍. You won't regret it! #EpicBrewing #NFLDraft #49ers #BaconWrappedBliss #AlecTheBartender #RyanTheSalesRep #GoNinersGo #UtahBeer #CraftBeer #DayOffVibes #BeerHaul #WorthIt 😂🍻🏈🌭🌶️🎉“

Uinta Brewing Co Brewery • $$
1722 South, 1722 Fremont Dr #2, Salt Lake City - 3.54 miles

“Was looking for a quick place to eat near the airport while in town and stumbled across this gem!
Tried the Nomad burger. Honestly thought a burger with salt and vinegar chips on it would be odd, but this is one of the best burgers I’ve had. And the beer is amazing! Has the Golden Spike Hefeweizen and could not be happier. Austin and Taylor were friendly and attentive.
If you’re in the area, don’t miss this place.“

2 Row Brewing Brewery • $
73 W 7200 S, Midvale - 6.85 miles

“2 Row Brewing does have a fantastic beer selection! I've had the elder berry blonde, their breakfast stout, and their house party malt liquor, and all were very good!

The breakfast stout floated a balance between creaminess, bitterness, and sweetness quite well. The malt liquor had some nice, fruity notes and went down sooth.

However, I can't rave about their food. Their pickle-loaded fried chicken Po Boy special was decent, but not impressive. There was nothing that really stood out from the chicken itself other than it was battered and fried. I am still salty that I paid $3 extra for a tater tots upgrade, and they were just plain SAD! They fell apart when you touched them, and they lacked crisp! My elementary school cafeteria made better tots.

It must be a quality issue because some buddies of mine have gotten tots on separate days that looked much better.

Speaking of paying $3 extra, 2 Row does not come cheap! The malt liquor, containing roughly the same amount of alcohol as 4 shots of 80 proof whiskey, ran me $7 plus tax! That is easily one of the best deal you will find here. One draft pint is $6, and one dish, including tax + tip, will easily cost over $20.

That said, if you like the draft they have as a special, then you will be getting a good deal as well.

Overall, 2 Row is a great choice if you are willing to put some green down for a couple good beers, but I'd pass on the food... For now! I might give the food a second shot later based on the owner's response.“

“The food was excellent. We loved the charcuterie board, elk burger and curry bowl. The setting is nice. We were first seated at a table by the ovens which was very uncomfortable. Not only was it hot, but we were right in the middle of constant traffic. We moved to a table down the aisle which was much better. The service was not good. Our water glasses were empty most of the time until a hostess noticed and started filling our glasses. We were never asked if we wanted more drinks or how the food was. Our plates were never cleared and it took forever to get the check.“
