We discovered Potosi a few years ago and have returned several times for some of our favorites: delicious burgers, cheese curds, and other great food. As far as beers, Cave Ale, Snake Bite, and Tangerine IPA are just a few of our favorites. There are few breweries in the area where we actually get cans to-go, and Potosi is always one of them! The drive to Potosi is gorgeous since it is down in a rugged River cut town. The building is historic and has been beautifully renovated into both a brewery restaurant and interactive museum. We would recommend visiting both for the food/drink AND the family friendly museum! Furthermore, the staff are always welcoming and friendly, making the interpersonal interactions a wonderful part of the visit! And the prices are very reasonable. Make sure to add Potosi to your visit list, and be sure to come with enough time to eat, drink, and check out the beautiful building's museum!

I already had the brewery to try but relatives that live somewhat locally to the town added more justified hype and momentum to give this brewery a try. Without a doubt we will be returning! Might first beer so far with Pivo is their excellent their American Light Lager known as Rice ville Light Lager. As the name suggests this is a rice lager which I do really enjoy getting. This beer is crisp, slightly sweet, malty and a clean finish. That is a highly excellent beer and I can't wait to try more of their beer options. Excellent, excellent starting beer with this brewery!

It's an enormous, industrial-chic space and is built for events and charter busses. Their patio is dog friendly but you have to come inside to order at the bar after checking in. The food looked decent and the pretzel was ok. Standard, uninspired brewpub food for the most part. Worth noting that their beer list isn't up to date so we missed out on a few barrel aged things they said they had. Basically you have to get there on release day if you want any non-flagship dark beers. It's a nice one-stop shop on a road trip for food and beer but I don't think it's worth going out of the way for.

Found out about this brewery and barbecue restaurant in Galena to get some local beers and lunch…read more Galena Brewing Company has been a long time favorite around here for hanging out. It has quite a few beers on tap to choose from in a few styles. As for the food it's pretty average. There's a lot of meaty things. Crowded place with a bar area and tables for groups. It's best known for the beers obviously. There's a pretty great variety on tap. A lot more in bottles and cans. It's about $7 a pint. Best we had of these was the Oktoberfest. This is a Marzen lager that's rich and smooth. As for the food it's mostly meaty choices. It's about $5 to get the Sweet Potato Waffle Fries. The rest of the menu has smoked brisket and pulled pork so the place is meaty. Got to say the beers are the best things to get here. It's closed Mondays and Tuesdays. There's a new name for this place but it's still the same beers along with some more food and whatever.
