Every menu item is like a hug. The cook here makes everything from scratch from making fresh sauerkraut to pickling their own gardenia. All the meat is local and freshly processed. All draft beers and cocktails are brewed in house. With 4 cocktail options and 16 different draft beers on tap, plus 4 non-alcoholic options, there is something to tantalize every preference and taste bud. Having been here a couple times now...I can say without a doubt my ancestors sing every time we order the tot, sauerkraut and corned beef appetizer. The wings are crispy and flavorful. The seafood is also fresh off the ocean. The service is personal and exceptional like having family serve you with food made from love. My favorite hands down is the Italian hoagie with au jus. Prepare for a happy food dance every time you eat here. It's worth the drive and the try, and I'm sure you will find yourself, like me returning time and time again.

It's a steal (this just may have been the deal for the night... not entirely sure.) I also appreciate they have more than just beer. There are cocktails, wines, and seltzers, which I appreciate as someone who doesn't love beer. The Food: our group got fried pickles, which were so good. Tasty breading and a good bar snack. My patty melt was phenomenal. The patties were loaded with that classic smash burger flavor, and it had all the fixings that I love. Also, sweet potato fries are a must! They also have a peanut butter and jelly burger - I can't wait to try it!

I give it four stars mainly because the folks working there were so nice and accommodating. I've been told the food is pretty good, although I've never tried it. Table beside me had some tasty looking nachos. It's a clean but not overly decorated or impressive inside. As far as the beer goes, I can't say I was impressed. I primarily drink IPA's and barrel aged stouts. I've tried several of their IPA's in my two visits and at local places and found them to be okay. Not great but not bad.

The person who got the last burger bun, it was stale. I wasn't told I was getting mine on white (stale) toast. The remainder of the people couldn't order half the menu because they were out of everything so they were stuck with mostly fried appetizers. Three of the girls never received their appetizer therefore it when it finally came after we told the server, it was after they ate their meal. Really poor experience. A shame because it could be fun as they have trivia Thursday. The mc for trivia was great but the kitchen is very poorly equipped. Won't return. Embarrassing experience as I brought these 9 other girls with me for trivia.

The other brewery has the more visible Main St location, but it was very dark inside and heavy metal music was playing loudly. Mechanistic is just around the corner and has a much warmer, brighter vibe with a lot of outdoor tables. The inside bar area is small but has good natural light, and they were setting up for an event in a larger room next door. Our bartender was friendly and welcoming, and mentioned they weren't officially open that day except for the event, so we appreciated being welcomed in. I ordered a pumpkin beer and it was SO GOOD. I've had several recently, and this was my favorite. It tastes like a slice of fresh pumpkin pie, smooth and sweet but not overly so. Would definitely return here.

I was surprised to see it already packed at 4:00 on a weekday, but I soon found out why. They have a great selection of drinks, food and the staff was wonderful. Their food menu has appetizers, entrees and pizzas. It was nice because there was a variety of price options and both smaller and larger portion options. I ordered one of the flatbreads and it was delicious! Packed with flavor, bread not soggy and loaded with ingredients. I sampled a few beers and settled on their seasonal brew (I'm not remembering the name). It was happy hour, so I was pleasantly surprised that my beer was $1 off from the price on the menu board. The inside feels cozy and welcoming. I really enjoyed the decor. I was told their wings are great and they have wing specials, so I'm sure I'll come back to try their wings!

I never could understand why people eat outside in downtown places where cars drive by them 5 feet away. The beers were OK, nothing really special but OK. They have a little bar outside so getting a refill was quick and easy. The don't serve any kind of hard spirits. My wife isn't a beer drinker so one of the bartenders at the inside bar mixed her up a drink with seltzer and something else(tea) which she found to be quite tasty, so i tipped her generously for having the ambition to please a customer. Where they fell down IMO was their pizza. It just wasn't very good. We had several versions of their Sicilian to choose from. The cheese was generous, but the crust was doughy and heavy, the sauce was flavorless, and the toppings were very stingy. A big piece of Sicilian pizza with 3 slices of pepperoni is not good. I checked out their menu and was stunned at the prices they are getting for those pizzas. WAY overpriced. Of course i didn't have to pay for them since it was a party, but knowing what their pizza is like i would never go back there and pay those prices. The wings were just OK, pretty mediocre. Parking is a joke. No where near enough spots for the size of the place. Overall it was just OK, i would not return. There are better places for the same or less money.

We stopped in on a Friday and since they're dog friendly, have the pups join us. There's ample seating and we found a spot by the bar. We see the cask and both order it and it indeed takes us back to pubs in Edinburgh. We also try other beers they have and appreciate that the ABVs are reasonable. They have food trucks since there's no kitchen and we ordered. It's El Rincon Oaxaqueño on the day we went. My burrito comes out hot and delicious. As we wrapped up, more people arrived and it gets livelier. Overall good spot to check out!

The place is small, but very cozy. It was also super clean. The barmaid was a sweetheart, and we sat outside under their shade and enjoyed ourselves. I had a seasonal beer that is house brewed in collaboration with a cancer charity, and it was fantastic - great flavor, very fresh, perfect! My wife tried a bougie cocktail from the bar, and she enjoyed it as well. We had some hot pretzels with beer cheese and ground mustard, and these too were good. I need to get back there for a more involved sampling, and plan to do so the next time we're out that way. Based on our experience, this place is a solid 5.

I love that the Laurel Highlands Pour Tour introduced me to some really fun and interesting new…read moreplaces! Overall, this was a great visit and someplace that I will likely be back to. First, the building itself is really neat! They give you the history of it on their menu. They kept the character of the original space and also added some fun touches (like an old card catalog used as a cabinet). The night I was there, one of the brewers was behind the bar along with my server. It was interesting chatting with both of them about the history of the brewery and the space and about how they develop new beers. I sampled a few beers and settled on their seasonal pumpkin brew. I really enjoyed the creative names and stories behind the beers. My favorite name is probably "beer flavored beer" The only reason it wasn't five stars is that the food could be a little better. I ordered the monthly special sandwich (which was Thanksgiving themed with turkey and cranberry sauce) but I expected more than deli meat turkey, I guess. A great place to grab a beer in a beautiful setting. I'd definitely come back.
