Area 5.1 And Firesticks Pretzels
Steve A.

Cool little brewery is hidden in an industrial area. It may be hard to find but it's worth taking some time to get to in Mokena. Brothership has quite a few on tap for not being that big of a brewery. Even the alien theme makes it worth going. The good beer will put your head in the clouds or even beyond that. After getting something to eat in town, we came. It was kind of hard to find because this was the kind of place where it looked like a brewery wouldn't be around here. This is located amongst warehouses. Even though the outside of the building isn't pretty, it gets better inside. There's a cool alien theme. Along the walls is fun artwork. The beer is the star though. It's about $5 a pint. That's not bad for a small craft brewery like this. I got the Area 5.1. This is a German pilsner. It gets its name from the ABV. This was crisp and smooth. Food options are limited. They have Firesticks pretzels for $5 a box, but you can also bring in food from outside. Fun little brewery. It's located in a pretty strange area of Mokena with not much going on. The artwork is only bested by the beer, and while there's no food, they have pretzels.

We stopped by for a flight and it's an interesting concept. We thought the green lights behind the tanks were funny and cool. Bartenders were super friendly and quick to serve us. You're allowed to bring in your own food since they don't provide any food. Lots of board games, sports on the TVs, and some good beer. Beers are decent, I tended to like their IPAs more. A little bit out of your way, but a good spot to stop at if you're nearby.

Tried 4 of their beers and all of them were amazing! Great flavors and taste. The service was great and they have specials on Sundays. I enjoyed the theme and how all of the names of the beers have a space theme. Service was great and place was really clean. All staff wore masks and they ask guests to wear masks as servers come to the table. Great experience and will be back!

Craft Brewery preparing for lift off! Extraterrestrial space themed brewery in Mokena. 8 beers on top plus a rostering guest hard cider, they also sell their own merch (glassware and t-shirts). Great vibe, very similar to Crafted. Before this place opened, they did a collaboration at Crafted. They have a very similar vibe between the set up and the decor, we're guessing they're partners. Great spot to sit and hang out for hours over a few drinks with friends!

Cool little place in the middle of a storage/industrial park. Friendly staff and pretty good beer, including a nice selection.

We always enjoy chatting with Jeremy--he takes the time to break down our craft selections and guide us toward the best options for our tastes. The entire staff is incredibly knowledgeable about the beer and other offerings. My wife isn't usually a beer drinker, but Jeremy went out of his way to craft a pistachio cocktail that she absolutely loved. Experiences like that are what keep us coming back.

Pretty okay prices for the quality. There's a lot of flavors and variety. Can get some on tap, or get bottles and cans to go. It's certainly a place to find local products. There's not a whole lot of room inside, but there's enough for a bar and you can taste some on site. Has many things from local breweries. It's about $7 a pint. Last time here got something from Hop Butcher For The World. Just one of the many local breweries. Then we took a few packs. For sure a good place to sample the local beers. It's got some on tap so you can find out right then if they're okay. They're mostly worth getting some to take home it seems.

The main stuff is the beers of course, along with some basic food offerings like pretzels and snacks. Big place with a lot of room for groups. It's a lot bigger than it looks to be honest. There's just not a patio. All of it's inside because there's just no room for it. This is in a part of a large building with a few warehouses. It's about $8 a pint. Kind of a lot but these are locally made craft beers though. We had a few including the Big Beautiful Wheat. It's actually a Bavarian style Hefeweizen. There's also a kitchen where they make a few things. It's about $9 for shareable items. The Pretzel Sticks are pretty standard and pair well with a lot. Great place for locally made beers. It's located on 186th Street. The menu also features grub like paninis and other things.

Very clean dining room! Great live music . Bathrooms were very clean! Above par for a bar and/or distillery. Cons: Food selection is mostly snacks but that's ok Kettle chips were poured on front of me out of a chip bag. I assumed they were made in house and the staff should not have poured on front of me. Was hoping for fresh cooked warm kettle chips None the less will be back with friends

Negative zeros.... Last time for sure past Saturday. DONE!!!! Flies still flying around your face…read more Mens restroom was a hazmat scene at best. There was some kind of backup issue in the past 12 hours and the back end of the place smelled like an outhouse. The area near mens room was blocked off for a private event and I dont even know how those poor people could eat in that area with the smell. On the patio people brought in 2 great dane dogs that were the size of small horses and how is that normal for outside dining anywhere, and people were leaving. Who has to watch dogs shitting by the next table where people are eating? Where are the owners? The same managers walk around clueless. Dont worry, the health dept. will find you out for sure. Good luck.

The fish tacos do not come with any kind of side. They were $15.00 for 3. Not very big. The burger came with fries. Don't recall about the bratwurst. We requested water and when we wanted another round of drinks it took awhile. Server was not in sight to handle request. She was pleasant just not accessible. Food was just ok. Not sure I will go back. At least not for lunch. Restaurant is nice inside. Maybe there is more help on the weekends or evenings.

A pretty hopping ass atmosphere. Those that like loud music will certainly like this. Coming here we missed it a few times at first. It's located on the edge of an industrial park. This is a pretty strange location it seems. About the only reason to be in this area actually. Kind of hard to see amongst all the warehouses. It's about $7 a pint. Pretty similar to typical craft beer prices though. Best we had of these was the Straight Blade. This is a West Coast IPA that's bitter with citrus and floral notes. As for the food it's mostly Mexican. It's $12 for the Lunch Special. There's a choice and we got tacos. Choose proteins including options for plant based. We got these with Beyond meat, and the faux al pastor. Basically they make meaty substitutes out of mushrooms. These come with beans and rice. A lot more on the menu. There's also brunch on Sundays with omelettes and other stuff. Has more than just beers of course. It's also got choices of burritos, tacos, and tortas. There's lots of things for vegans and vegetarians.

It seems they recently expanded into an adjacent space to offer private parties, have monthly events, or offer additional seating. The inside is rather open but all tables and chairs are stool height which isn't ideal for families with kids. Most of the family groups had to sit outside which had more limited seating. I tried a couple of their seltzer flavors and definitely liked peach the most. It did end up tasting very syrup like. I also tasted some of my families beers which were good not great. This isn't one of our go-to breweries in the area but it is certainly worth visiting to see if it is your vibe!

Moya, the host, was incredibly sweet and so apologetic about the wait for a table--which honestly flew by because you could tell how well the place was being run. Once we sat down, our server Luke took amazing care of us. He was personable, attentive, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun. The food... WOW. Truly phenomenal. I had the Nashville wrap and my brother had the meatloaf. Everything was cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes and green beans that came with it were just as delicious--comfort food done right. What really stood out was how much the team cared--Kelly, the GM, even came by to check in and make sure everything was perfect, which says so much about the level of service here. Despite how busy it was, service never skipped a beat. That's rare. Also, the patio is such a vibe! I already can't wait to come back in the summer and hang out there. If you're anywhere near New Lenox, this place is a must-visit. Amazing food, incredible staff, and such a great atmosphere. This place is really something special!
