Atmosphere is amazing! Quick and friendly service. Waiters are knowledgable about beer selections and suggest great alternatives to standard brands. Would definitely go back and suggest to friends.

Here Gose Nothin' is a Gose-style beer that pours a deep golden-orange color, with a yeasty, spicy aroma. On the palate there's a punch of tartness from the fermentation, as well as a hint of funk. Read more

This was our second visit and we will return. Our favorites include the Bavarian pretzels, nachos, fish and chips and Dan especially liked the pot roast. Service was great today. Highly recommend

Love the food! Especially the espresso rubbed ribeye. Beer is just ok. Service during the week is fantastic. Weekends are packed expect slower service and you need to make a reservation.

Great beer selection, solid food options too. I always go for the Stuffed Poblano Peppers or Huevos Ranchero Stack. Service is slow when restaurant is busy.

Try the espresso chipotle rubbed ribeye! Cooked exactly how your order, looks dark, but was cooked to medium perfection.

The Counter ClockWeisse is another home run for Destihl's Wild Sour series. It's hard to find a beer that's this refreshing; the perfect companion for summer grilling. Read more

Great beer and great food. Try the Beer battered asparagus. Also they rotate the beers so there is always something new on tap!

Despite what I call a rather bland atmosphere. the food was good and the service was great. Our server was very attentive and engaging.

Servers are all very friendly. Iced tea is different but delicious. Beer and cheddar soup is a must! Love this place!

Great Brews and sandwiches! Always ask what their seasonal special is. It's yummy!

Beer is just okay but menu is creative and fun. Try the Pumpkin Bread Pudding with homemade pecan ice cream for dessert. It's awesome.

The Barley Wine Beer and Salmon and Potatoes go nicely together. Something about the ground mustard sauce.
Cindy OConnorJanuary 14, 2015
The beer-battered bacon and asparagus are a great appetizer
Rich SmithJune 10, 2016
The food here is amazing. It was a tough choice deciding between just one meal for dinner. The beer was just ok for me.

The Espresso Cream Stout is so not good this month. Tastes water downed, but try the Bourbon Barrel Reserve tasted way better and was 13% as well. Very tasty. . .

The fish and Chips r great but what puts it over the top is there take on the vinegar!!!!!

Appetizers: asparagus, potato croquettes, and chorizo stuffed dates

If you like light beer, Normal Blonde is a great one! Excellent service and great food!
Bill CarriveauSeptember 26, 2014
Food is good, service is not. Getting late in the evening or not doesn't mean ignore multiple tables go eff off and sit and talk with other co-workers. You want wash dishes when you close.
Trista JohnsonSeptember 9, 2011
The beer and cheddar soup is to die for and they have one of the best cuban pork sandwiches I've ever had.
Jean HeasleyOctober 21, 2011
Great beer, awesome prices. The stuffed pasta was WAY salty, but the Smores are life changing... Seriously.

The marlin with butternut squash, asparagus, and a creamy cilantro-lime sauce was to die for! Best I've ever had!
Justin WilfleyJune 22, 2013
The beer battered asparagus is PHENOM! Great atmosphere!
ManbqueDecember 27, 2011
Bringing good beer to the area, although a suggestion would be to stay away from the fruited ones.

Wi-Fi password is morebeer ... you may have to enter it twice though.

Great bloody mary, the garnish is a meal on a stick, and it comes with a small beer.
Jennifer CarrFebruary 16, 2011
It is very good food, great service, and drinks are inventive! Get the flights to try the beers!
