WAS a great spot. Loved their small beer selections. Friendly staff and great little outdoor spot out back. Added food that was delicious just prior to closing. No longer open read more

Admittedly I didn't get the chance to try their beers. They seem to have a very unique selection, based upon their menu. The atmosphere seems really nice. It has an Appalachian look to it, and they have an outside area. Why two stars? I write my Yelp reviews without revealing that I do. The reason for that is because I want to relate to my readers what the experience will be like for the Average Joe who just walks in. I sat at the bar. There was one other guy on the other side. The two employees didn't make contact with me and just served their friends. I was very patient for a long time, but I continued to not get acknowledged. I tried to flag them down and make eye contact myself. If there was another way to order, it was not immediately apparent. After about 15 minutes of watching the employees chat with their friends and only serve them drinks, I finally did say something. Yes, I was upset, but rightfully so. In summation, this brewery should be more welcoming of new customers who are just traveling through. read more

While making our rounds to all the breweries in Knoxville, this one we had not tried. It was a Sunday afternoon, not many patrons when we arrived, however; as the evening went on, more families started to arrive. We sampled several beers before deciding on a favorite. We explored the interior, which was quaint. Ultimately, we found a shady spot outdoor under some sail cloth to enjoy our brewski's while listening to the smooth sounds of rock. Overall, it was an enjoyable spot to unwind. read more

One of the best brew houses in Knoxville, very laid back family atmosphere . Every day has a special occasion, from Monday " bring your own albums," night to Friday's, North African food by Tyrek . It is a mouth watering taste like no other in Knoxville, there is also Live music on Friday. A great collection of beers ,from IPA's to great stouts ! The rich taste of the dark "Bonzo" is my favorite; take out cans are available, also. The bartenders are very involved and attentive to make sure that you are welcomed. read more

Awesome setup! It's almost like a cool coffee shop vibe - but with beer and Hard Knox Pizza. Hard Knox delivers pizza so this place that you can then buy at Albright (yum!). 2 floors and a great outside space. My only ding on this pace (and it's a big one considering), is I've never been a big fan of their beer. I love IPAs, and I'm more of a Printshop/Alliance/Elst guy. If I'm ever in the area, I'll definitely be going back. But I'd never seek this place out. read more

Albright Grove Brewing - Inside by the bar - Breweries Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Underrated brewery went for a private party and the beers were excellent the sour was excellent and the light beers were very good

Not a lot of options, and a small quaint place, but they do the best with what they have. The best thing is they have a corgi mascot that greets everyone that pulls up. Cute outback option to meet with some friends. read more

I liked the rustic modern decor of this little brewery. We noticed a large overflow parking lot (field) in back, but we were lucky enough to get a parking spot right in front. My wife and I walked in and up to the bar. The bartender greeted us immediately and answered our many questions about the space since it was our first time here. They had a Mexican restaurant's staff set up to one side serving a few dishes, and they regularly offer pretzels and a few other small bites. They had about nine beers on tap. I found their pilsner to be to my liking. Unfortunately, they offered no dark beers, so my wife had to settle for something lighter in flavor and color. We walked upstairs to see the open space with tables, and then settled outside in back on some plastic Adirondack chairs under shade cloth to enjoy our beer. There were picnic tables under shade cloth too. Although, I noticed space heaters for cool weather, they offered no fans for the heat. We hung out for about an hour or so before departing. read more

Amazing spot. First and foremost, the beer is consistently great. There are a variety of styles, ranging from sours and Belgiums to solid IPA and lagers. Second, the environment is great - especially the outdoor section, which is a fun spot for hanging with kids. My favorite brewery in town; surprised this spot only has a handful of reviews. read more

Tonight was my first visit to Albright. I loved the small atmosphere , it was also during the game so it wasn't as busy. They did have patio seating outside. They just opened so only had 4 0r five beers on tap! I had the Saison which was perfect on this hot Saturday! I look forward to seeing what other types of beers they offer in the future . read more

Loved the relaxed environment. Outdoor area is fabulous. Nice shade to tables. Thanks for the sample

Stopped in for a couple beers, they were good and service was good. Food coming out of kitchen looked good.

First off, great beer. I had one beer on tap, the Devils Courthouse, which is a strong Belgian golden that comes in at 8.3 ABV. Then things went off the rails a bit. I asked if I could get a six pack or a Crowler to take with me, any amount under the 64 ounce growler which required purchasing a growler bottle for five dollars. The answer was they were still working on all that. So I ordered a 64 ounce growler. My tab was $39. Ouch! Six dollars for the first beer on tap and five dollars for the growler bottle means the beer in the growler was $28???. I'm sure some of that was alcohol tax, but come on. Most 64 ounce growlers run half that much. And it would help if they advertised the price of the growler for each beer on the front end. Fix this and they're approaching five stars. read more

Just ok. Very intense on the mask hoax while so many places use commons sense. If they survive until winter, being so close to river sports it would be great for the area. All beer places seem to crumble when "too nice", not Asheville copies. read more

Very nice (new?) building. Neat location...a nice change of pace versus Kingston or downtown traffic nonsense. Parking may be a problem at busier times, as that's somewhat limited. Rather quiet inside...almost library like. Not sure what that's about, but there were several tables full of people on the lower level and few were talking. When a patron spoke up at the bar, it carried all over the room like a PA system. Due to this, our group made our way upstairs, as we came to talk. What a nice surprise...nobody else was up there so we had the TV to ourselves! Beer selection was interesting and diverse. Flights are ideal for such a place. One thing that caught us off guard was the temperature of the beer...a bit on the warm side. Yes, I do realize this is probably the correct way to serve craft beer, but everyone in our party was a caught off guard by this since most places don't really honor this rule and serve beer "refrigerator cool". That aside, my choices were reasonably good tasting...nothing to where I took note of it, but just fine. I will probably try this place again at some point. It seems the best suited for that rare mid day meet up with an old friend, etc. but a little too subdued for weekends. read more

As a regular of many a Knoxville brewery, Albright Grove shines above the rest. In my opinion, this is the best beer in Knoxville accompanied by the best service you can find (specifically the bartenders Meghan and Noel). If you're looking for beer that will compete with your favorite breweries in either Asheville or Nashville, this is the place to go. read more

Charming new brewery. Their tap selection is quite limited, but it's clear their brews are carefully chosen and crafted. The three I've tried have been delicious! They're also accommodating for families; my friend's kids were given lemonade on the house :) The beer garden in back is pleasant if spartan, and the "upcycled" feel of the building interior provides a good atmosphere for the beers. Cheers and I hope this place flourishes! read more

Arrived 25-27 minutes before their posted closing time of 10PM EST this past Saturday night. My wife and I were abruptly turned away from receiving service. The two ladies working the bar were rude and purposely condescending in saying that "last call" had already happened. I politely looked at my watch as well as the clock behind the bar and indicated it was roughly a half an hour before close and in surveying the room there were 12 or more patrons still occupying the space. This is my second and undoubtedly last trip to this establishment. I debated on whether or not to write a review but opted to do so in hopes the ownership will take notice and rectify the caliber of service providers they have in place. While my first experience at the brewery was good this experience was enough to tip the scales and to push us away from this local business. We purposely patronize small and local businesses in our neighborhood but unless the staff improves or customers are appreciated I will chose one of the many other micro breweries for our weekends out with friends. The beer and location are great but without service to match it is nonstarter. read more
