Great spot for a beer or flight while exploring Bel Air, MD…read more Minutes, hop skip and jump away from The Liriodendron Mansion. Checked that spot out for their holiday market and after driving from DE need some time to decompress with some local drafts. The brewery has over 20 different brews with sours, stouts, IPAs and lagers. Service was quick and efficient with them walking through all the different pours and offering samples to peak my interest. Their seasonal peppermint bourbon will blow you away. I usually don't do the dark beers but I would drink this all night long until Santa arrives. The space is both indoors and outdoors with special events that take up their community area with the taproom usually open to the public during events like Christmas Wreath workshop.

While I am not familiar with other local breweries and am not a connoisseur of beer in general, this place seemed like a nice social hub, with a food truck on site and live music. The only thing I wasn't a fan of is that there is no table service, so you have to stand in a fairly long line to get drinks yourself each time you want a drink (or food from the food truck), yet they ask for gratuity (not a fan of the business model when personal service isn't really provided). I went with their "Blue Eyed Blonde" beer. It was nice and cold, but also felt it wasn't anything special for a Belgian blonde beer compared to others I've tried. Beers are decently priced at $6-8 for a glass. There's a mix of indoor and outdoor patio seating, and the area with live music does tend to get packed when music is being performed. I would rate the place a 3.5/5, but happy to round up since Yelp doesn't allow for half stars. I'd recommend a visit to Independent Brewing Company if you're looking to socialize and try out a local spot for beer in Bel Air.

We checked out this spot during our day visiting Havre de Grace. The brewery is located on a…read morebeautiful farm. It's a lovely view looking out at the fields. They have both indoor and outdoor seating options and a good variety of beers. We enjoyed food from Taco Bar while we were there; they seem to rotate different food trucks. They also had MacGerk's food truck so it was cool to have two different options and there are also snacks available for purchase at the bar. Staff here were very friendly. It was cool to see many people of all ages enjoying themselves on a beautiful day. There was a band while we were there and we enjoyed listening to them while we ate and drank our beers. I'd like to go back to see how their beer rotations change; they didn't have some of my favorite styles, but still was able to find one I liked! Overall, this was a cool spot and loved reading about the history of the farm and family on their website. I'll definitely return next time I'm in the area!

Tons of parking and outdoor seating. There is an indoor tap house that isn't super large at all…read more However, they do have some pavilions which can also be rented for private parties, as well as lots of outdoor seating with coverage from the elements. You are also able to bring folding chairs, etc. They do have a good selection of beers and even a great orange crush on tap. I recommend that! They also have slushies. The beer was good but the orange crush is great. They do have cans to go and merchandise to buy. There are also non alcoholic options in a standing cooler including water, seltzers, and soft drinks, they do have a food truck and some small snacks (cheese balls) in the tap room. They are very good at getting the line down quickly when they are busy. There isn't a large area to stand and wait inside and often the line goes out. They are happy to give you samples as well. Overall, very friendly and helpful employees. They also have live music. Check their socials. This is a great option for outdoor gatherings and sets the whole farm vibe.

We didn't go to the outdoor part of the brewery, preferring to stay in the air-conditioning. It's got a cute indoor seating area, and was very popular with families and friends alike. The service was really helpful. You order directly at the bar, you wait for your drinks there, and any food is taken out to you. My dad got the cider and really liked it, but I felt that the star of the show was the mango blue raspberry slushy. Honestly, I should've gotten another one because it was super delicious. It was like a superstar of a drink. It was also very popular among all the girls wearing cute summer dresses, who I'm guessing were there for an engagement party or something. Most of my party got burgers, although my mom got the chicken pesto sandwich and said it was great. We all loved our burgers. I got the bacon Gouda burger, which I highly recommend. We also got some of their fries. Fantastic! Honestly, I couldn't believe the food was that good. What a great place to stumble across!

This is a nice liquor store that…read morehas several different...well i should say about every option of adult beverage you can think of! They also have a guy that goes by the name of "JIM!!" Let me tell you he is the real MVP! He can answer every and any question regarding liquor!! He knew where everything was and a story behind different bottles!! I loved every second of his information! They have dollar days that they advertise for. So their dollar days is basically some items (they will have dollar tags that tell you the price) that are marked down to the price they pay plus a dollar. So the cheapest I seen a bottle was $4...there could be cheaper but that's what I noticed. I was able to purchase 5 bottles for $35. The reason they are getting 4 stars is because I did notice some of the rather cheap bottles of stuff from champagne to wines were pricey. If you have ever heard of Venti...it's a bubbly champagne and they were selling it for $14.99....I have never seen it more than $7. One of my favorite wines Electra, normally is no more than $8 was $17.99 there...big up charge. Other than the up charge the place was cleaned and had friendly employees! If you catch the times they do the dollar days...they have a tone of Sample tables....so why not drink a cup or five while you are shopping!!

A great spot to take your friends for after work drinks and eats. They even have a cozy lounge area to relax. Plenty of seating and great service. The staff was ready and willing to help and cleared off our tables for us. The tab system makes it easy to move from room to room so you don't have to worry, it's easy to add drinks and food as you relax and enjoy the atmosphere. Will definitely recommend for a relaxed atmosphere where you can watch games and also enjoy lively conversation. Better than a sports bar for food AND drinks.

There was like a tangy sauce on the tuna which took away from the flavor of the fish and for $22 I was expecting something a bit more. Otherwise, Jailbreak is always a solid choice for drinks and grub. They usually have reservations and larger parties, but it's a pretty open/communal space, so there aren't typically issues with seating. All in all, a great spot for many occasions.

They had food from a local BBQ spot while we were there; we weren't hungry at the time, but it smelled great! They also have chips and other snacks available.
