Weve heard the food was really good so thought we would try, Yes it was!The bartender started out offering us a sample of one of the crafts beers then the owner brought us a sample of the taters wrapped in bacon, yummy! We will be back!

Very nice bartender/owner. Nice and quiet but very friendly. Bar pies, different sandwiches, etc. Kinda well lit for a bar. I loved the solid three inch wood raised tables. Plenty of parking, very safe parking lot. I would go back for sure! I took one star off for not offering burgers on the menu.

Great staff. The canned selection is great and allows a mix and match to try a bunch of differnt options. Their draft list is great and always changing, and they charge a reasonable price for growler fills. The food is solid, perfect for a snack while hanging out. A go to spot for sure. Check em out if youre in the area.

Casual, super friendly. Great beer on draft & also sold as package Goods. Formerly Amazing Grapes wine shop. They specialize in roast beef cooked using the sous vide method. The bar pies were good - super thin crust &cut in small shareable pieces so you can try a few.

This was a nice little place. Good selection of beer on tap and packaged. Packaged beer prices were a bit high but the growler prices are quite good. The person working there who seemed like an owner or a manager was very friendly and gave me a few quarters so my kids could play some arcade games. They also have board games that you can play.

My wife and I had a great time. Her drink was great it was one of the specials. I had probably one of the best roast beef sandwiches. It taste so fresh. Not sure if the guy that was working was the owner but he was by himself and did not miss a beat. He seemed calmed and was able to attend to everyone there and still was able to make conversation. I will definitely go back.

Great craft beer and truly unique selection of wines and liquors. If youre looking for a chill please to try some beers or wines you probably wont find easily elsewhere, this is it. Friendly staff and good food. Bacon wrapped tots!

Review №17

A hidden gem with a perpetually fantastic tap selection and a stellar assortment of cans/bottles available to drink at the bar or grab-and-go. The soft pretzel and sandwiches prime you for the next pour and they offer growler fills too! The casual, welcoming atmosphere and service that John and his staff provides will keep you coming back.A must-try for any local craft beer fan.

Go for the food and beer.....not the atmosphere...and thats fine by me. Very good draft and bottled beer selection. DELICIOUS roast beef sandwiches. Can mix and match bottled beers....will be back. Inconspicuous location in the strip mall but worth searching for.

What an awesome place! Cheap decent food, casual you can bring kids no problem, full bar, lots on tap. Most importantly BUILD YOUR OWN 6 PACK! What a value to try before you buy into a full 6 pack of one type of beer you dont like. Not that local to me, but Ill definitely be back for more build your own 6 pack!

Review №22

Great beer selection. Good growler fill prices. *See edit below about food* Only reason its not 5 stars is due to their food. Their food just doesnt shine, it isnt great. I had the roast beef and it tasted like deli cold cut roast beef. I was hoping for a local food and drink joint, at least I found a 5 star beer place.*Edit* they have kicked up their food menu and what they serve is a higher quality now. I have upped my stars to 5 because of it.

Review №23

Favorite place to get a beer after work. More of a local crowd but very friendly, none-the-less. They have tons of craft beer on tap (and the good stuff - not the easy craft) and even more in the coolers to-go. A small selection of food but everything weve had there has been really good. Cant wait to go back again soon.

Amazing tots flat fried in a panini press; wings that were spicy, moist and super meaty; and one of the best roast beef sandwiches Ive ever had. In addition to the food, great beer selection and a Sega Genesis to play at my table. No questions asked, a must visit if youre in the area!

Review №34

Did the Create your own 6-pack deal with the wide selection of beer in their store. Noticed that two of the beers tasted a little funky. The expiration date was printed on my paper label and it had expired by 3-weeks. Girlfriends beer tasted funky as well; but conveniently the expiration date on her glass bottle was scraped off. Looked at the remaining beers I bought, and all of the expiration dates have been scraped off the bottles as well... I know you cannot sell all the varieties of beer steadily and keep it fresh. But that is a poor business decision. Also stop stocking all of the IPAs and Pale Ales, I know they are trendy but there are other varieties out there.

Great beer selection; 22 taps and you can select individual bottles to drink on premise right from the coolers. Awesome sandwiches but food service can be slow when busy due to the small kitchen so if you are hungry order when you arrive.

Im glad my girlfriend convinced me to swing by after hiking one day. The sandwiches and tots are great, and the beer selection is top notch even for us beer snobs. We now make it a point to swing by whenever we are in the neighborhood. Keep at it guys!

Has one of the biggest selections of craft beer and microbrews in a 15 mile radius, on tap. I also have to strongly disagree with so called Local guide, KyleRappa about the food. Everytime Ive come here has been a delightful experience from the kitchen and my girlfriend and I never hesitate to grab a quick bite with a quick brew!
