    Went here last night on a friend's recommendation. It was late on a Friday night and a live musician was playing and the place was 70% full. These guys don't brew their own beer but had a good selection of local brews. I was there for around two hours and enjoyed the laid back vibe and the personality of the staff. The beer that I ordered was good and I will come back.

    Pumpkin beer-so yummy!!

    Stopped by with my husband on my first visit here. I was impressed with their selection of beers from all over FL. Normally I prefer going to places that brew their own beers, but this was a great experience and let me try brews from all over the state. The bartender, Austin, was very friendly and helpful. The industrial atmosphere was nice and they had ample seating. I look forward to coming back again soon!

    What a hidden gem! Brū offers an array of unique and refreshing brews on tap, including hard cider and seltzer. I had visited just once, last year, for a trivia event featuring the Office. It was packed!! During my recent visit on a random Wednesday evening, my group of four had the place to ourselves. Ashley hosted our [unofficial] private event with grace and style. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed, and kept the bar lit. Just as I remembered, there is no food served at this bar but that's what the neighboring G Peppers is for. With their powers combined, Brū and Peppers makes for a great evening in this otherwise sleepy plaza. Overall a chill spot to thoroughly enjoy cold brews or grab growlers to go. There is a small porch for outdoor seating but if Ashley's at the bar, you're better off inside.

    Great craft beer selection, cool ambience and really fun games!! The bartender was really nice, and they had a game playing as well. We brought our 4 year old to the bar, and they allowed us to bring his soda from the restaurant we ate dinner at. There are a ton of boardgames to keep big & little kids busy. Hubby & I had a lot of fun playing shuffleboard, Dutch shuffleboard, and darts. We'll definitely be back!

    I've been to the Bru in WC, so I wanted to check out the one in Odessa. Cute place that has two rooms. Bar on one side and games on another. I had the horchata and it was great!! Light and tasty! Bonus - Bru is on the Pub Pass.

    I'm on a 5 star trend, so upgrading my experience because Bru has been exceptional! Bru is the closest for an adult beverage that also includes coffee, Kombucha and most famously known for is craft FL beer! I've gotten Growlers during Covid-19. I was so happy w/the Stout/Porter from Crooked Thumb & Angry Chair. Bru safely reopened after fighting for their business when they were closed by operating as a "restaurant" w/their house made crab dip - they don't offer that anymore now that they are officially open. Additionally, they were delivering Growler/Coffee to your house at the beg. of the pandemic! You can still order food next door from G Pepper. My most recent experience from a couple days ago was so much fun. We sat outside and I enjoyed their Milk Stout (Friends & Enemies from Sideward Brewing in Orlando) - it was just us outside on a nippy night w/low temp. around 50 degrees all bundled up w/our hoodies while doing plenty of laughing between sips of beer. This business has literally blown me away in every way possible w/Ashley and G tending to everyone's refills - they are friendly, funny & helpful. The owners are absolutely amazing, so excited for their Wesley Chapel location to open, but please don't take Ashley away from this location! At this point, I should get a Beer membership...I am hinting to my hubs as a Christmas present! ;-)

    Found Brū Growler through my #Craftapped membership. It is a nice little beer bar with Florida Craft beers on tap. They have 14 taps and was told by Jeeves the beertender it can change daily. You can get a glass or a 32 or 64 oz growler to go. Was told they are opening a second location on Bruce B Downs north of 56 and across from the hospital. DAMN - I have another location for them - The Publix strip mall at highway 41 and Festive Grove Blvd. We have no craft brews up here and the area is booming.

    Haven't been here since the remodel but it's a great bar. Supports local Florida artist. Nice selection of drinks with additional seating outback as well. We usually bring games here to play while we enjoy some beers.

    There is a big difference when you are greeted by an employee, than when you are greeted by the owner. My little bro and I decide to go to BRU Growler Bar thanks to the Yelp reviews of this place. 5-Star out of 33 review. I decided to give this place a shot. At the beginning, before I arrived, I was under the impression that I was driving to a brewery. We walked in and a guy comes up to us saying: Hello, first time here right? His name is Christian and he is one of the owners. Sat us down, explained to us that his Growler bar only has beer from breweries, although he doesn't make his own beer he changes the menu every week. How cool is that?? We started decent ordering the OktoberFist from Angry Chair, which in my humble opinion it was a good beer but nothing new for us. As a huge fan of the Brown Ales I asked Christian for something darker and he offered us his three darkest beer of the day: 1. Chocolate Coffee - Porter from Four Stacks 2. Morlock- a Milk Stout 2. Vanilla Coffee Moo - a stronger Milk Stout My personal taste was blown away with the Chocolate Coffee, I ordered two of those and of course, bought a 32oz growler to take home. So, why 5-start? Simple, I felt special, I was given great customer service, great beer and the place was small but cozy! If you read this, bookmark this place because you have to go!!!!!! Ask for Christian, he will make you feel at home!! Thank you Christian - Cheers mate!!!! - El Futbolero

    This place is cool. We stopped for a beer on the way home from work on a whim. Sweet spot for a multitude of local brews in one place.

    Is it dog friendly?

    While we’re officially a restaurant now (thanks FL govt and COVID requirements), we cannot welcome pups indoors any more. We do have a patio out back, though, and we’re happy to fill up the water bowl fresh for your furry baby. Just ask!

    @thirstybuffalobrew in Odessa, Florida…read more Brewery: 592 Thirsty Buffalo opened in 2023 and was created by Mike and Erin Bishop. Mike has years of previous brewery operating experience, starting a very well known Florida brewery in 2012. Erin is the CEO of Thirsty Buffalo and leads the operations team there. Their head brewer is Joel Moore and he has 20+ years of brewing experience. It was a pleasure to hang with Dylan and Gabi who were working and saw asst Brewer Scott doing his thing is the brew house. Thirsty Buffalo has a nice patio area out front and a spacious modern garage brewery feel inside. They have a big calendar of events that is released each month and a new toasted sandwich operation on site! The beers were all wonderful and this is definitely worth a stop or two (or 3 or 4)! Beers: - "Ciao Bella" Italian Pilsner 5.5% Loved this one - "Hef Hop Anonymous" Experimental IPA 6.7% - "Six Miles" Wheat Wine 9.5% - "Quasar Cowboy" IPA 6.8% Great vibes and it was an awesome way to start of the birthday Cheers friends! #thirstybuffalo #floridabeer #craftbeer #supportlocal P.s. always love brewery bathroom art...

The potatoes were thin but with some heft to them to carry the gravy. The curds were very cold so it took a while to get to a melty point, but it was tasty. The gravy was very good and not too heavy. My husband also really liked the wings, he devoured those pretty quick. Service was friendly and quick, and it was a chill place to be on the night before new years. I'd definitely go again if we lived in the area.
