    The environment was a little strange - more like a mini warehouse with a backyard than a professional looking brewery. The bartender was very helpful and he recommended different beers based on my preferences. There was not a whole lot of variety - mostly IPAs. We went on a Sunday so it wasn't busy at all. They do not have food, but they bring in food trucks (schedule posted on insta or Facebook) and sometimes there is live music. It would be nice to go back on one of those days!

    Beer!

    Beer is really good! You can get sample sized or regular sized beers. They also have select brew cans available to take home. Food trucks are here at times. Outdoor seating is available, backyard vibe with corn hole ect. Fun vibe like some of the downtown CLE brews.

    The cool microbrewery on the block. If you thought Chagrin Falls was only for yuppies and well-meaning grandparents, Crooked Pecker wants you and your beer snob friends to think again. And if anyone ever said playing hard to get never works, Crooked Pecker would like to raise you its 3 days a week opening schedule. All jokes aside, this unassuming brewery will hook you from your first visit. The bartender/brewer we met was easygoing and friendly, and genuinely just wanted to share good beer with us. They have a rotating selection of brews on draft and another selection available in cans to go. You can sample any of the drafts before committing, and also get any of these in taster sizes rather than full pints if you're indecisive and noncommittal like me. All of their IPE (pronounced EE-pay, not related to IPA's) brews really hit the spot and are sure to please any dark beer guy or gal. Our friendly bartender also gave us a jazzed up concoction of IPE with cacao nibs and Black Bird that sent my taste buds straight to brew heaven. Unfortunately if you're the type to get attached easily, your new favorite beer may not be available to go or even at all in a few months, but fear not as the beer masterminds at work are always working on something new in the back. And I literally mean in the back, where the brewing silos are housed for any curious customer to observe. The actual seating area is small compared to other breweries, but there's a decidedly eclectic and homegrown feel with the army of plants, chalkbox colored stools, and acoustic instruments on the wall. Oh, and of course the ping pong table and infamous sticker wall. (You are welcome to contribute your own sticker conquests to the wall.) Did I mention board games as well? When the Cleveland sun emerges, the backyard area, set up with a firepit, cornhole, and quintessential Adirondack chairs, is a must. Yes, Crooked Pecker is dog friendly. Water is self-serve from the dispenser next to the single stall unisex restroom, and a doggie bowl also lives here. If you do use the restroom, please take note of and chuckle at the "Get Naked" sign but do not actually take it literally. While you can fork over money to brand yourself with Crooked Pecker apparel, unfortunately there are no food options at present to help settle your stomach between drinks but they'll occasionally have vendors or events with snack options.

    Excellent hazy IPAs! Very friendly staff. It has a nice patio and yard area. Dog friendly.

    The Patio, apparently there are plans for an upgraded patio on the side. There's extra lawn chairs to fold out or bring your own.

    My local brewery. The only negatives seem to be they don't offer growlers, they seem to run out of canned beers, and they don't always have the same beers on tap. Maybe this is what keeps us all coming back. The positives though. The funky furniture. A few modern looking tables. Some old school like your parents used to have lawn chairs, an interesting wooden table that seats 6ish. Its not uncommon to see people bring their own chairs either. Now on to the beer. I've been back more than a few times. My latest favorite is the Turbo. If they don't happen to have it this next time I'll just find another IPA that'll work. They are dog friendly as well. Which is kind of nice. I can take my dog to hang out with me when I need to escape being home all day during Covid. They also have food. Different vendors. I've had the Hawaiian BBQ, but missed out on the Pizza. Next time!

    My family and I stopped in to check this out when I was visiting my hometown of Auburn during the holidays. Living in Columbus, we have a LOT of microbreweries and tasting rooms, so I had pretty low expectations for the Crooked Pecker, but was pleasantly surprised by their product. As someone who tries and enjoys a lot of kinds of beer, I have to say the 2 IPAs I tried were very good, and the stout was a good amount of bitter yet savory. Hopefully this business continues to expand and perhaps open up a larger tasting room with some more seating and maybe a patio with outdoor games. That would draw a lot more business in, although it was pretty busy when we stopped in! Happy that something like this exists in my hometown: there is really nothing like it around! Yay for craft beer in Bainbridge!

    Nothing is certain but death, taxes, and Crooked Pecker. In a way, Crooked Pecker is just a tax. Every week, it's the same thing for me. Beer release announced, select a couple 4 packs, whip out credit card, and pick it up a couple days later. I should probably just set up an automatic deposit to make it easier on everyone. Do you like hazy IPAs and DIPAs? If you're venturing to Crooked Pecker, you probably should...or you should probably learn to like them. It's what they do, and do better than everyone else. They do venture out with the occasion stout, but really the greatest hits are the hazys. Their location is the definition of microbrew. It's a glorified garage. The brewing floor is the main focus, with patrons coming in second. Normally, a solid line will form at the single tap station on a Friday and Saturday. Currently, they are only offering order ahead beers to go, but hopefully the warm weather will open up the brewery. They could use a patio, a couple picnic tables, and some heat lamps to really keep the patrons coming, staying, and drinking. During the summer, people are scattered all over the property - standing around, sitting on makeshift chairs, and on tailgates, If you didn't get the drift, I have Crooked Pecker beers in my fridge every weekend. If you come over to my place, I might share, but I'd recommend stopping there and picking up your own!

    Beautiful bar

    It was Saturday at 4 p.m. and this small brewery was hoppin'. The logo, a Pileated Woodpecker, was present on the outside and inside. Entering through the garage door we were greeted at the bar where you order. The offerings are few so you focus on the brew at hand. Three brews were on tap. I tasted the Lactose-free Imperial milk stout. It was easy to drink, not thick, but pleasant with a nice stout flavor. The Beastly Cryo-hopped doubled IPA, tasted by a friend, said it was very good. The Beastly was the brew for carry out this weekend, so we purchased two four packs. The stout was not for sale in cans, but it was on tap. We did not try the third choice, an IPA. Tee shirts and glasses were for sale. On this day, The Hawaiian Guy BBQ was setting up to sell. The Crooked Pecker is a great small place to try a nice craft beer.

    Crooked Pecker is one of my favorite casual hangouts. I love being able to show up in dress clothes or a tank top with swim trunks. There new patio furniture is great for lounging this summer

    Tasted a flight of the five you see in the picture. Lots of potential in this new brewing…read moreoperation. I think they are only available in restaurants and bars right now. I tasted them at Iron Mann in Girard. Shout out to those guys for having this extensive selection, along with great, friendly service I'd say check out 1547 wherever you find them and see how your tastes compare to mine... My impression of the beers (always a subjective matter, of course) went down something like this: 1400 Miles From Home - a Key Lime Sour. Very light sour, to my liking, with all of the flavors in the description working together quite nicely Kolsch - another light version of this style. It is a good summer beer for someone who wants a little more flavor than a Bud/Coors/Miller Ohio Heat Wave - subtle habanero on the back end slowly builds, but that's about the only thing I'm picking up. This is a very light beer Hang 11 - a sweet IPA? The bitterness is as advertised. Would love to know the hops involved. Very drinkable, but don't expect a mouthful of IPA. More like a sweet, session IPA in my opinion Shooktown NE IPA - first taste hit very nice. Like most of them, it tastes very close to the description. No bitterness, but like others on the flight, it's a light version of this style. I'm used to a more potent hit of juice from a NE IPA, it's drinkable for sure

While I went on the run, my husband and kids enjoyed Voodoo's music bingo, they had a blast! The brewery had a great family-friendly vibe, lively atmosphere, and solid beer lineup. I joined them afterward, and decided to stay for a bit before going back next door...my daughter won bingo, earning us a $10 gift card (huge excitement for her). I tried a few of the IPAs and rated them 4/5 stars--good flavor, and they stood out compared to other Ohio beers I sampled during the week. Overall, top-notch place. I also loved their book ticket method for drinks--it kept things easy and fun--and the dive-bar vibe paired with the local ambiance made it feel like a true community spot. If I were local, this would absolutely be a go-to spot, especially paired with a post-run visit.

The pork belly and Brussels app would be so much better with a creamy sauce but still was good with the tart balsamic. The Brussels were perfectly crispy even though there were only 5 total pieces of small pork belly in the whole app. It was $10. It is very dark in the place on its own. Order at counter and pick up your food to sit where you want. Trivia on Wednesdays. The pulled pork meal was decent for $12. Fries were incredibly salty but perfectly sized to grab multiple at a time with a fork for easy mouth shoving. Pulled pork was kinda tough. The jalapeño slaw below the pork was peppery perfection! No dessert options.
