    This was our second visit to this brewery and confirmed why we go repeatedly. We were a party of 6 adults 1 infant and we couldn't have asked for better service. Everyone enjoyed their food and the restaurant was mostly clean. The restrooms needed some work (ladies) but we still recommend them as the food/service made up for it. The noise level is average, easy to chat.

    Espresso martini

    I visited this spot for the first time on a Saturday night with a group of 8. They were welcoming and could accommodate our group with zero issue. I ordered an espresso martini, which was terrrific in part because of the chocolate lager used in their version. There is a variety of food to choose from, but I settled on the pimento cheese grilled cheese. It had fried green tomatoes in the sandwich, so my little southern foodie heart was just so excited to try it. It did not disappoint. My daughter ordered the fig and prosciutto flatbread and loved it. Everyone was happy with our meals, the timing was perfect, and our service was impeccable. I can't wait to return!

    Part of the giant Bavarian pretzel

    This was our first experience and it was a phenomenal one. The server Cassie was super attentive and friendly. She was very accommodating with our orders and questions. The food we ordered came out fast and hot and super delicious. We got loaded cheese curds and giant Bavarian pretzel. I got their version of a Paloma and it was delicious. We will definitely be going back in the future for their bottomless mimosa brunch on Saturday or Sunday!!

    So glad Jesse is back! Love Cassie.. Hubby loves the chicken tenders and Jen juice is back. Keel is my favorite but your Elderberry is decent. Love the new menu

    Flatbread appetizer - was average. Nothing special here

    Used to come here back when it was Sanford Brewing Company and always loved it, so I was a little skeptical about trying the new spot. Happy to say the food and service did not disappoint! Our waitress, Casey, was absolutely amazing--friendly, attentive, and on point. I had the smash burger with potato fries, and my wife went with the garlic parm wings. Both were delicious! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because they don't have live music anymore, though Casey mentioned they're working on bringing it back. Looking forward to that, because everything else was spot on!

    Well, my first experience back to this place post when it used to be Sanford Brewing was mixed. I think the beer might be better. That alone will have me come again. Service was super friendly, which was great. However, for me, the big letdown was the fish sandwich I had several times when it was Sandford Brewing. Nope, not again. The fish was nearly nonexistent on it, and the taste was not nearly as good. Maybe it's just a case of finding a different item on the new menu that works well. I'm not sure. For now, at least the ambiance is familiar, and the beer is still flowing.

    Fried Green Tomatoes

    Came here randomly on a Friday evening and was very satisfied! The food was good across the board, service was great, and the atmosphere was very chill. Tried a big selection of menu items. The pretzel bites were killer. They have tajin on them, which pops perfectly with the pretzel and cheese dip. Fried green tomatoes were crispy and flavorful. Corn nuggets were creamy, and tried a bit of the lemon pepper rubbed chicken tenders and they were excellent. Highly recommend this place. It's new, but definitely will become a staple of my Sanford experience. In fact, here for the weekend and definitely intend to go back tomorrow night.

    Great location in downtown Sanford. Been to the MCO location before, but first time to this new location. Large selection of Brewlando craft brews as well as liquor choices. Didn't eat, but the brews were good. Definitely a "must visit"!

    The food and drinks and staff were all absolutely amazing I definitely recommend their wings and if your a ranch lover this is the cities best ranch actually all around this is as good as wing stop ranch I loved the food and Anthony makes the best passion fruit/coconut mojitos if you try let them know Nikki sent ya for the mojitos

We didn't notice the huge sign on the wall telling you how to place your drink order. We weren't very hungry but if you are, they have a fairly large menu with literally something for everyone. We tried the garlic cheesy bread. If you don't love fresh garlic, don't order this as it's got a heavy dose of garlic on crunchy, delicious bread. We really enjoyed it. Very good selection of beers as well as higher end wines than a lot of breweries offer. We liked the place so much, I bought a cute woman's t-shirt to remember our fun time here. Go with complete confidence as it's very clean in a casual atmosphere with friendly service.

We each got burgers, and 2 appetizers, the pretzel and the kettle chips with blue cheese and balsamic reduction. The balsamic reduction was not a reduction - it was practically straight balsamic vinegar that pooled on the bottom and soaked the chips. Couldn't eat them. The mustard with the pretzel was great though. The burgers were a mess, and were not even patties - just chunks of ground beef held together with cheese. And it didn't taste like a burger. It was simply awful. We each took a bite then walked out. Fortunately you pay and order at the bar before you even sat down so we could just get out of there. The hose made kettle chips they advertise with Wop's seasoning - we literally saw the cook open a large bag of store bought chips and sprinkle pepper on them.

We went two days in a row. The restrooms could use sprucing up. It's the great service we came back for but much better happy hour pricing just around the corner.

I knew that Hollerbach's had a brewhouse where you can purchase everything you need to become a home brewer but I had no idea that they opened up this little taproom inside. They offer a variety of beers - Golden Lager, German Fest Beer, Irish Red Ale, Hazy IPA, Cran-Apple Sour, Double IPA, Belgian Tripel Ale, Belgian Strong Ale, and a Nitro Imperial Stout. They were also carrying several other local breweries brews, and they offer flights if you want to sample a little of everything. Pricing is on par with most other breweries in the area and you can even purchase smaller samples $3.50-$5.00 depending on the brew. I ordered the Krampus Belgian Strong IPA ($7.50) in spirit of the event going on and the guy at the counter gave me two cups half full. I asked him if he did that because of the foam and he said it was because they are 8oz servings due to the ABV percent is high. I understand that but why are you giving me two? He didn't say anything and said that would be $16.05, WTH?? Nancy was not happy with is nonchalant character all but I said, you know what I'll probably drink both anyways so no big deal, but honestly that is not an acceptable business practice and they guy just basically ignored our dissatisfaction at the situation. I admit that the beer was delicious but the employee's ownership of his mistake or ignorance to what just happened was a big turn-off. Great job on making this delicious brew but good luck keeping customers coming back with this guy running the tap and register.

I'm excited for the future of this place.

Citrus City Craft was selling some special cocktails outside, and I saw the berry bourbon catching my eye. I had to go with that. Since it was an event, it just came on a plastic cup, making it easy to hold. It was a great fruity drink. I forgot what kind of berry they used, but it was pretty sweet and enjoyable. The bourbon they used was indeed high quality as the booziness lasted almost an hour. Though, thankfully I was still good enough do two rides on the mechanical bull and last for a decent account of time. And what was amazing about the drink was the cost, just 8 bucks! I would have expected to pay at least 10 dollars or more for a great quality drink for a special event, but 8 dollars was quite a steal. While I didn't go inside the restaurant/bar, I just enjoyed the outdoor entertainment at the strip mall, and tried the cocktail. Because of their excellent quality of the drink at the event, I definitely need to visit inside and try their beer selection as well in the future.

The parking situation isn't the best, there's very limited parking in the front lot of the brewery but there is a lot behind the building if it's full, and it can get full so just be prepared to walk a bit if it's busy. Inside, there's a solid amount of seating with a relaxed, casual vibe. They also have games you can play while hanging out, which makes it a great place to spend a couple hours with friends. What really stands out is the selection. They have a huge variety of beers (something for everyone), plus ciders, non-alcoholic options, and even soda. It's one of those places where everyone in your group will be able to find something they like. They don't serve food, but you're allowed to bring your own, which is a big plus. There's a wing spot just a few doors down that makes it super convenient to grab something and bring it back. They also host events throughout the week, my personal favorite is Wednesday night bingo. It's always a fun crowd and a good midweek activity. Overall, it's a great local brewery with a welcoming vibe, tons of drink options, and fun things to do.
