I had some leftover salad and asked for a to-go container, since they use compostable containers, the oil from ghe salad immediately soaked through the container, I ended up leaving it instead of taking it home.

I came in and grabbed a beer at the bar and worked on my laptop while I waited for my buddy to join. Even though it was a busy week night, there was still plenty of seating. Every single employee is incredibly friendly and seems like they truly care about the work they do. We ordered a pizza, salad, and Italian sub. The pizza and salad were fantastic as always. I probably wouldn't order the sub again but that won't change my love for this place.

We waited maybe 20 minutes to order then another 45 minutes for food, which wasn't that bad for a busy Friday night. We were crowded outside, and we didn't really have enough table or chair space. That's to be expected when we descended upon the restaurant with such a large group. For six people, we ordered three pizzas to share. We definitely could have shared with more people because we had some pizza left over. We got The Works, Shroomin' Goat, and Texas Chicken Ranch pizzas. The Texas Chicken Ranch was by far our favourite. It was really good, while the other two were alright. The crust was weirdly bubbly and amorphous looking. There was a lot of crust. The Works was okay. The sauce and meat weren't particularly tasty. The Shroomin' Goat was a vegetarian pizza with a lot of arugula, which is not my type of pizza, but our vegetarian friend said it was okay. Great vibes at Pinthouse overall though, and I have enjoyed their other pizzas in the past.

The service went quick for the long line due to multiple registers. I had the smash burger and my partner had the pizza. The burger and fries was real good. Skinny fries which are my favorite. The pizza was bigger than I anticipated and my partner loved it and we took some home. The crust is real thin if that's your style. The beer and cider menu is large. My partner had a cider and I had the house made black tea. Both were delicious. We closed out the tab and had a great night.

The taproom is large and spacious and the the way they arrange their light and decor on the walls is creative and fun. The beer here was pretty good! I got s beer type I have had before but not one I can find often which is a historical beer which is a Pre-Prohibition Lager which means it's based on a beer recipe that was used before Prohibition. These lagers are nice and light and this one was too. The specific name for this beer is Hittin' Dingers. The flavor features in this beer is bitterness, sweetness, malty and floral. The blending of all these flavors come together in a nice, seamless layout on the tongue. The beer is nice and smooth in body too. I'm glad we made it here also and exploring breweries that are new to us is always a highlight to our trips.

The bartender recommended it and it didn't disappoint. The bartender was great!

They have the advantage of being right next to the convention center, which means a lot of foot traffic and the ability to host private corporate events (big money there!). However, the convention center is closed for a few years! Still, the siren song is bringing the crowds in and they seem to be doing a-ok. Here's to another 7! (Do need to levy a small complaint that the flights cost $18, though. Beers are otherwise fairly priced, not sure what's up with the flights.)

A Perfect Way to Spend a Sunday Afternoon!…read more Enjoyed some craft beer and snacks with a few of my running buddies and had a great time at Hold Out Brewing. The outdoor casual setting is relaxed and inviting - truly a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Parking is also very convenient, with spaces available both in front of the brewery and in the back. As an IPA fan, I really appreciate that they offer several IPA options, along with a variety of mixed drinks for anyone who wants something different. The food is also very good for a brewery--fresh, flavorful, and a step above typical bar fare. I had the large pretzel and Masala frito pie. Overall, Hold Out Brewing is an excellent spot with great vibes, solid drinks, and tasty food. I'll definitely be back!

This food truck is so simple and unassuming, you may actually miss it. As a complement to Live Oak's German style beers, The Black Forest food is a perfect pairing for German beer. The menu focuses on classic German food. Menu favorites include Schnitzel sandwiches, bratwurst, fresh baked pretzels, house made potato salad and homemade mustard and pickled vegetables. In addition, small chips and cookies are sold for $2. We shared the pretzel...OMG, it was mutant large...enough for three people. The pretzel came with queso and stone-ground mustard (preferred the mustard). The pretzel was firm and flavorful on the outside and soft inside...ideal combination. Neil, the owner, was so super nice and shared some history regarding the brewery. He also has had a daily special. The food truck is located at Live Oak Brewing, making for an ideal German beer and food pairing experience.
