I'm a late bloomer. This was my first Igloo experience. Rooftop was super cold of course. Igloo was warm but I'd still bring a blanket next time. I like the concept and vibe. Dewey delivering pizza is great. Coming out of Igloo to order drinks was a drawback.

Dewey's pizza

Rooftops help take the edge off. You also have the option to eat indoors downstairs if it's too hot or rainy weather with plenty of seating. This brewery does offer some cocktails , but you definitely can get draft beers. This place offers paid street parking, and no reservations. Go with friends , order pizza (Dewey's ) and enjoy the drinks . It's plenty of room and some games to help enjoy the night . You can order food with the app or with an employee. Covington is enjoyable .

Gingerbread house making night at Braxton Brewery, Covington! Great gingerbread beer and Dewey's Pizza!

I stopped by Braxton for a beer and sat on the nice patio outside - it was way too cold inside with the AC blasting. I tried their hazy IPA which was really good. They serve food here, but there's no servers to take your order so that's a bit of a hassle. Overall, I'd come again to explore more food and beer as it's a bit better than most other similar places in town.

Lots of beer to purchase for later

Lots of outdoor tables, dog friendly inside and out as well. I enjoyed the beer and pizza. Ordering the pizza was a real pain in the ---. No one in person and an unwieldy cumbersome system. The pizza is brought over to a counter inside the brewery, so the pick up is easy. The amount of indoor dogs was off putting for me. A few were barking quite a lot and not shushed at all. I imagine it isn't this way every day, but it could me. There were lots of outdoor tables no one was using. The beer almost made up for the inconveniences, but not quite.

Gotta love Braxton! Great beer great vibe. Great rooftop bar. Super cool place to hang out and watch the Reds, Bengals or FCC. Super service too.

Igloo

We love coming to the igloos at Braxton in the winter- it's a great cold weather activity. The igloo bar drinks are great, I love the spiked hot cider with rum. And the food is great- especially love how they have Dewey's offerings!

I've been to Braxton many times, in many seasons. The interior is large, but feels very cozy. I myself and not a big beer drinker, but there is something for everyone here! Most recently my best friend and I enjoyed the igloo experience on the rooftop. It was easy to book/reserve online with a $35 deposit. Once we arrived we were able to pick any open igloo. Each igloo had a QR code menu that allowed you to order food from Dewey's next door that they delivered right to the igloo. The drinks were ordered at a little building on the roof by walk up. There are special cocktails and mock-tails themed for the igloos as well as Braxton beer of course. Plus hot coco!! This was a wonderful experience that I recommend whole heartedly.

Loved the atmosphere. Great options of drinks. Suggestion add blinds or tint to windows. It was very blinding to sit anywhere the sun shined in. Patio roll down blinds or automatic ones work great. Also will help with how hot it gets in here. Otherwise loved our experience here

I love the rooftop bar here though it was too sunny today to sit out there with the laptop and plan my next steps. So instead, I took a look around and found a seat downstairs to drink a couple of beers and eat up some of their speedy wifi. Friendly service, a delicious adult beverage and a comfortable spot. It's five stars. [Review 20504 overall - 245 in Kentucky - 1485 of 2023.]

Great selection and wide variety of brews to fit any pallet. Service is fast. Really busy today I think there was a company get together (prob a great place to work) lol first floor was loud so we moved to the rooftop. Beautiful.

This was a first stop of a long day and I was worried we would not pace ourselves properly, as there were many barrel aged beers we tried. Fortunately, we were able to slow it down and keep legal on the roads. This is a nice taproom. No food in the place, but there are restaurants nearby if you need to grab a bite. Very clean, open taproom. There are also two additional levels which we did not go into, including a rooftop taproom with seating. Beer is good. Not the best in Cincinnati, but they do some solid barrel aged stuff. The dark charge maple from 2019 was my favorite (not sure why so many 2019 beers on tap, unless aged 4 years, but let's roll with it). The White Chocolate raspberry was my second. In hte past, I have had some of their Labs IPAs and a lager, which also rated highly, but was disappointed in their Berliner. For someone living in this area, this could well be their "Cheers" spot. Ample bar space with plenty of tables.

Stumbled upon the igloo bar while searching for rooftop views and was NOT DISAPPOINTED! Reservations are required as there are only a few available. There is also a nominal non-refundable deposit to reserve an igloo, which seats up to 8. Not a big beer fan, I was happy to find cocktails and a spiked hot chocolate option on the menu. LOVE. The Hubbs ordered the cinnamon honey butter and baguette which was warm and delicious. It may have been cold and rainy outside, but our igloo was warm and toasty. Definitely recommend!!

Dogs allowed inside yet?

I have seen dogs inside before.

Do they serve food?

They do not serve food, but they partner with the restaurant, the Parlor, next to them. You can call the restaurant order your food and they will deliver it to your table. Worked great for us on our visit.

Are kids allowed?

Hi there! Individuals under the age of 21 are permitted in our Taproom until 9pm every night. Our Taproom is ages 21 and up only after 9pm.

When will you be opening the Fort Mitchell location? I saw that it was supposed to open in September but have not seen any updates since then.

They opened Sept 27th. https://www.facebook.com/braxtonbarrelhouse/

Is the inside dog friendly?

Yes, I think the place allows dogs. The time I was there I saw several dogs. It seemed like a family friendly place.

Do they have food?

No just delicious beer

Do they still do trivia night? If so, what night of the week?

Do they still have the giant pretzels?

Yes! At least they did a week ago.

Can you get into Braxton Brewing if you aren't 21?

Yes - until 9pm!

If you love karaoke this is the place to be. You can go in…read morethe back area that's free and listen to people sing or sign yourself to sing. Or you could get a private room for just you and your friends and sing as loud and wrong as you please. If you get your own room you can order drinks from there and the come down from the ceiling. It's always amazing to look at.

Reserved a room for two hours. Drinks are reasonably priced, well-crafted, and tasty enough…read more Employees were also pretty nice and helpful. But the actual experience felt bare and poorly-executed. Cheap. The rooms are very minimalist in design, are not soundproofed (can hear other rooms singing, not to mention the main club room), and the karaoke tech is TERRIBLE: The music defaults to weird keys, is randomly out-of-sync with on-screen lyrics, and the song library is so minimal (do not go to the Japan-themed karaoke bar and expect to karaoke any Japanese songs or anime titles). Add to that the removal of past elements like drinks being lowered through the ceiling and robot deliveries, plus a mandatory gratuity added to your room reservation fee (not just your drinks, which itself is sensible), and I can't help but feel Tokyo Kitty has gone out of their way to cheapen an experience (not the cost) that will eventually run out of one-time customers. Improvements I think could help: Karaoke client overhaul - install a system that works and has a broader selection of music. Probably get better microphones too. Automated drink order system - This is a rare business that actually NEEDS QR code mobile phone menu/ordering. Guests order drinks on their phones, and employees can deliver them as needed. Or, install the novelty drink-delivery system! Flipping a card in a window and waiting for someone to enter and try to juggle drink orders while customers are wailing into a mic is inefficient. Sound proof rooms - or sound dampening. If the hole in the ceiling is pointless to have anymore, get rid of it! Spruce up the place - a few graphic arts of some celebrities hung on the walls feels cheap and lazy (The mural of Eartha Kitt stays. It's so good and adds some real, actual character and warmth, but it's the ONLY thing.) Otherwise, add literally ANYTHING that says "You're in a place called 'Tokyo Kitty'!"
