Simply the best beer anywhere. I'm from Eau Claire and now that Modicum is gone, this is the best place to go.

We came in for a taste. All in all, small beer selection, great atmosphere and friendly service. Like others have said, quaint place with a rustic/industrial vibe. Flight of beers -- German Pils, Belgian Witbier, Schwarz (black) Lager, Maple Rye Belgian Dark. My dad and I came in with both having very different style preferences in beer taste, but decided on four to try together. We were both in love with the dark color but light and refreshing flavor profile of the Schwarz lager, but disappointed in the lack of maple in the Maple Rye. It was too sweet without being maple forward and alcohol-y tasting. Others were decent but nothing to write home about.

I have loved the Pearl for my whole life. But three separate times in a row my order is lost or something. Today I watched 11 people order and then get malts and cones and everything else before us. When we mentioned this, we were told that we are in line and they’ll get to it. 2 minute wait for everyone and 15 minutes for us at the front. I’m not mad for waiting, I’m disappointed at the lack of communication and coordination multiple times now.

Great selection of craft beer and friendly bartenders. Good prices too. I enjoyed reading here while having a few beers.

Nice little spot in downtown La Crosse. There's plenty of seats for cozy interchanges with friends. There's a bit of an industrial vibe matched with rustic wooden table tops. I love that there's succulents on every table!It can get loud the more patrons come in but in a fun, lively way. Love the music - old country, mostly Dolly's pipes singing the blues as we drink away!They have a nice selection of good craft beer. I had the cask Black Ale and it was a nice dark beer with hints of maple and cinnamon. The bartenders are really friendly and very knowledgeable and helpful. They, along with the beer, make me want to come back!

Nice brewery with a nice selection of craft beers. Waitstaff was friendly and knows their beer. Could use more IPA styles but it sounds like they have a neat seasonal cycle.
I bought a root beer growler on Thursday night and stored it in my hotel room's mini refrigerator. Saturday morning I woke up to find the root beer was frozen and the glass busted. The growler I bought Friday afternoon had its cap blown off and partially frozen and some root beer all over the shelf and floor. The manager at the Turtle Stack was so kind to top off the unbroken growler and replaced the busted one for free. I'm so very thankful for her generosity. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is crazy and friendly. A must stop.

Turtle Stack Brewery, what a great name for a brewery by the river. This is a small brewery in downtown La Crosse. It is easy to walk to if you are bar hopping, Octoberfesting, or at conference. It is not a big place but it's comfortable. Service has been friendly even when it was busy. They make a variety of beer on my last stop they had a, Golden ale, a session, Belgian blonde, imperial ESB, brown, NEIPA, IPA, Coconut Porter, doppelbock. If you are in downtown put this local brewery on your to do list.
