Had no idea what to expect here, the sign on the building says taco+beer, with no real signs it was a brewery. Definitely more of a taco spot with a brewery than the ladder, but they have a great menu and beer selection. I got the coffee milk stout which was great, slightly sweet with a hint of chocolate and coffee. For lunch I got the special crab Rangoon empanadas, crispy, creamy, slightly sweet that paired great with the slightly spicy dipping sauce. Great spot located in a quaint little town!

After enjoying a great kolsch in Stowe, I stopped by UP to explore their other selections and bring home a 4-pack to share with friends. I shouldn't have wasted my time. The bartender did not greet or even address me until 5 minutes after my arrival, although there was only one other couple there. He was rude and condescending when asked questions, and seemed annoyed by my presence. I requested a sample of beer, so he poured a "pint", leaving an inch and half of foam. So much for exploring UP's other brews... When asked about the sparse in store selection, he directed me to the co-op next door, which did not carry UP beer. This is definitely NOT a tasting room and certainly NOT worth the stop.

Deno is amazing! She should own this place. Great service, food, and beer! A hidden VT gem

Poke bowl and beer were great! I stoped by on a Sunday and it was pleasant hanging out in the space while I ate and drank. I thought the staff were patient and helpful as well, letting me sample some beers and chat about them without any hassle!

I get very frustrated when I pay for a PINT beer and end up with an inch foam in my glass. In Europe they pour true pints. Let it rest and fill the pint. Or charge less. We ordered English Pub Ale

Tap room has a nice variety of delicious beers, but they are allowed to pour only 8 oz per person at a time. Nevertheless, we love Modern Pants, and the soft pretzels are great. The folks behind the counter are super friendly and knowledgeable, too.

Cloud drop is Officially the greatest to me! But their hours are way off.

Awesome beer! Swing by if you’re in the area, definitely worth it.
I have been drinking Upper Pass along with many many VT beers for a wicked long time now. I will first say that the comments on the store front about customer service are troubling. I am in the people business and to see so many complaints is not good!! Fix that immediately! Now, the beer. First Drop and Cloud Drop are solid beers. These started in the early days before the explosion. Good stuff. Contract brewing is really not something to turn your nose up on. The recipe and process is what counts. There can be many advantages to doing this. It’s a business in the end.

The tasting room shares a space with the coffee shop, which is kind of neat and makes sense for a small town. They only have a tasting license, so max 8oz pours, but we got to try quite a few. They were good and we ended up buying a few kinds to take home.The guy at the counter was cool, and even offered restaurant suggestions for dinner.

Awesome microbrew, super friendly service. One of my favorite breweries ni the country. This town is sooo lucky to have them there. Try the Cloud Drop and the Moove Up - 2 of my fav beers ever. Definitely better than Heady Topper, though that's a great beer and brewery too!
