I still maintain that this place mislabels their beers- their "sours" are sweet! However, they do have good beer. I really enjoy their trivia & bingo events! Service is good. read more

A fun and unique brewery in Louisville! I have tried many beers here over the years, but my current favorite is the "Mango- Colada Sour! This brewery is in a wonderful location, pop over to the antique mall or grab some pizza on your way out. The brewery has a great selection of board games, cozy atmosphere, and always quick service. The AC was blasting, which was a big relief with the blazing temperature outside. Highly recommend stopping in, especially if you like fruity sour beers. read more

I kinda want to live here forever and get to drink their offerings every day. Not that I could afford that... This place is even smaller than a micro-brewery! Nanobrewery! I love and adore their beer. The "sours" are often fruity and pastry-style, but using coconut cream so they are vegan! Sweeter than other sours, very like grown-up kool-aid or boozy milkshakes, they are also often higher ABV than one would expect for sours. SO FRIGGEN DELICIOUS. Flights and pours are more expensive than at other breweries and bars, but the batches are smaller and the ingredients more interesting. The flavors are worth it! They also have more beer-like beers, barleywines and stouts and things like that. But when I come here, it is because my sour-loving palate is going to be catered to. The bartenders and brewers have been friendly and welcoming and my guy and I, and all the friends I have introduced to Butchertown Brewing have felt welcomed and comfortable. They do not have food, but you can bring your own in. OR you can order from Danny Mac's across the walkway. They will deliver to your table at the brewery too. I can't wait to go back again! read more

I'll cut the guy a little slack because I heard him say that he doesn't usually work there, but my first pour was about 4 ozs short. Fill it up man. Then my next pour was a sour and I just wasn't sure about it. It tasted like wine. I enjoyed sitting out in the little courtyard area. Wasn't overwhelmed enough to return. There's some really good breweries in Louisville, this one needs to step up their game. read more

Met these fine people at NULU Festival. They were really helpful in picking out some good brews for each of us. The beer was good tasting and was a decent price. The tent we met them at was nicely organized. It was raining but it did not stop the staff from taking care of customers. A tent is a tent so nothing fancy but they did have it stocked well and organized. We will seek out their actual location in Butchertown. read more

Loved the vibe Beertender answered questions, very informative in regards to the menu of BEER Definitely stop in for a brew or two read more

Great beer; friendly service; superb atmosphere. The porter is an employee favorite and mine too! The best stamp on the Books & Brews lineup. Thanks for a lovely Sunday, B-town Brewing! read more

First of all, Butchertown Brewing is the only brewery in Louisville with multiple gluten free beer options. And from the look of their social media, they have a constant rotation of brews. As someone with celiacs, I haven't had beer in over 8 years, so this was super exciting. The bartender was really nice in explaining what I should expect from each drink on the flight, which I appreciated since I really don't know anything about beer. My favorite was the raspberry sour. It was the least sweet of the four of them, and according to my fiancé who is a regular beer drinker, definitely tasted the most like beer. It was sweet, but also tangy and slightly hoppy. I would definitely buy a full glass of the raspberry sour. Overall vibe here was good! Lots of people, tvs with various sports, & lots of board game options! I will be back for sure! read more

Really great beers. The sours are fruity and sweet, and the stouts are rich and delicious

One of Louisville's newest breweries located in Butchertown. I got to try them at the beer fest at Frazier Museum back this past summer and I was just in love. I happened to be around the area and decided to check the place out. They are only open on Saturday's as of now. They are located in where Mellwood Art center is. It was kinda tricky to find so I had to use their map that was posted. They are on the 2nd floor across from where Danny Macs Pizza is. It is fairly small on the inside and very limited bar seating. I got to try their Pumpkin Pie beer and I liked it very much. There were only 3 beers on tap at the time of my visit. I also got to talk to the bartender and learned about the place some and he was an awesome host. Although this is a very small brewery I do hope to see them grow and be as big as the other breweries in town. I do plan on returning when I'm in the area. read more

A friend said this was the best brewery in Louisville. I can see why he'd say that. Loved the Kill the Pain and the Juicy Hazy was pretty good too. Thanks, Andy, for all the kindness. read more

amazing product!!!! Will for sure go back again and again! So wish they were closer to my hometown.

Love Love this place! They have great beers that I could enjoy it. I highly suggest to do the flights because every beer is unique and different. They always have new beers almost every week. I love it! read more

I haven't been into the brewery yet but I snagged a beer at an event they had a tent set up at. I had their pumpkin cider, and it was really tasty. Not an overpowering pumpkin taste at all... it was really well-balanced! Being a lover of pumpkin and a lover of ciders, this was perfect! I will 100% be visiting the brewery in the near future. read more

Ingenius variety of beers ranging from tropical like fruit punch or Pina colada flavored to banana or berry sours to pilsners to chocolate coconut stout! Also gluten free beers offered. I think they are dog friendly. It's a nice space both inside and outdoor seating as well as a great pizza restaurant and vegan restaurant right next door. I wish I lived there to try all of the different flavors they have coming out all the time. read more

I hold Mellwood Art Center in high regard, as well as Butchertown in general, and this is the stellar brewery they deserve. They were superb from the start, slinging creative and crowd-pleasing beers in their old second-floor nook. Now their taproom and hours have expanded considerably, and the beer is as good as ever! Butchertown Brewing is best known for catering to drinkers with a sweet tooth. Their sours (generally light) and stouts (VERY strong) often draw upon dessert flavors like mint chocolate chip, berry parfait and tropical punch. Fair warning, they are on the pricey side, but I have yet to meet anyone who wasn't seriously impressed with them. Creamy sours are the best sours if you ask me, and Butchertown Brewing cranks them out with aplomb. At the top of their menu (which you really should read through - the descriptions are quite witty), you'll find the "Beer Flavored Beer" section - you know, ales, pilsners and the like. These are always good and usually excellent, and the $6/pint price tag is very reasonable. If you happen to catch it on tap, the Gianna Italian lager is a real standout, and the Butchertown Juice is a solid IPA with a unique flavor profile (juicy, yet more dry than sweet). This is a highly versatile and formidable brewery that should be on every local beer fan's radar. It may not seem like the flashiest taproom at first glance, but with one of the friendliest brewery crews around and outstanding output, it's hard not to see Butchertown Brewing as a slice of paradise. read more

Great experience all around, awesome and unique beer and nice people! The area itself is also nice, with a good pizza place just outside the door read more

So excited for a new brewery in town! It's a little hidden, but don't let that discourage you from stopping by. They are also dog friendly! We did a flight of all their beers, and while that was a little more expensive than a normal flight, everything was excellent... even the Banana sour! The bartender male, sorry forget his name, he just moved to town and was very friendly and accommodating! read more

If you are not familiar with the brews here I suggest getting a flight of five different beers. The Snarky Blonde is great but my favorite is the Blood Orange Sour. They have brews for everyone's taste. The service is great and the prices are on par with the town. You can set inside but the best place is outside at one of the tables. On certain days there are local performers playing music. Pair up your beer with a Danny Mac's pizza and you have a great casual meeting place without all the mainstream hype at the chain pubs. read more

Came here based on recommendation from Danny Mac's Pizza - Mellwood and it did not disappoint. Great variety of beers including sours that were very well balanced. Great atmosphere and service. Must try if you like local brewed beers. read more
