Wow! I was blown away with how neat this place was and how GOOD the coffee was for a brewery! Visited my sister during the day on a Sunday and stopped by this beauty because it was close to Huntsville hospital. I was in the mood for something cold but not beer at 4pm, so I opted for the apple chider which is apple cider and chia tea and IT WAS SOOOO GOOD! My sister got the dark cholesterol cherry cold brew with a splash of cream and it was super good too! My fiancé got a watermelon beer and it even had a pink tinted foam on top! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Halloween decor was super cute inside (Cobb webs, spiders, candles, spooky vases) to make it the perfect place to go during the month of October![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Staff were amazing and knew the menu to a tea! read more

I stopped by here on St Patrick's day. It was pretty busy but one bartender working. I felt bad for her because she was in a bad mood. I am from the east coast and was visiting. I asked for a flight, and she made a face. I asked if she would be mad if I got one and she said yes. She then did not offer a single sample of anything and looked annoyed I was asking about the different types of beers. I got a point of the dry Irish stout, tiramisu milk stout and the dominant red ale. All middle of the road, nothing stood out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was super dark and dim lighting, hard to see.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was bad and I get it, it's a holiday and you're by yourself. But management failed that bartender and set her up for failure. One bartender for a holiday around drinking. If I'm ever in town again, probably won't stop by. read more

My boyfriend and I were in town visiting his family for Thanksgiving. We drove around town to site see and stopped by this brewery. Unfortunately, our experience here fell pretty flat compared to everywhere else we visited. Right from the start, the service felt noticeably different for us than for other customers. We ordered four beers, but the bartender only served three. When we mentioned the missing drink, she insisted we hadn't ordered a fourth instead of simply double-checking or acknowledging she might have missed it. Only after we asked again did she pour it--no apology, no "my mistake," nothing. To make things even stranger, the Hefeweizen we ordered came in what looked like an 8 oz glass, which seemed off compared to what others were receiving. And while serving it, the bartender proceeded to talk about us to a man sitting at the bar--loud enough that it was pretty clear we were the topic. It was uncomfortable and honestly pretty disappointing. There was no warmth, no welcome, and absolutely no effort to make the experience enjoyable for us, even though we could see other customers being treated far more kindly. We really wanted to like this place, especially since it was recommended by family, but the service left us feeling singled out and unwelcome. Hopefully this was an off day, but based on our visit, we won't be rushing back. read more

My girlfriend and I went on a Friday evening and ordered seltzers. They asked for our IDs and we happily obliged. I am 23 and she is 25. My license is a TN license and they accepted mine without issue. They refused my girlfriend's AL license even though she is two years older than me. We asked if they could scan it and they proceeded to tell us they could not. One of the bartenders got her ID out and compared it to hers for two seconds before saying it was fake. Terrible experience and will not be going back ever again. read more

Spent the night in Huntsville, Alabama on the way down to Florida and wanted to try a local brewery. Staff very friendly. Beer Quality and selection average. I did have a mulberry cream ale that was decent. All of the other beers average at best. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The building itself was very cool. I believe they said it was built in the early 1800s. They had the original structural beams in there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They do have bagels and finger foods but nothing extra extravagant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's in a historical area of town. A lot of Victorian and early 1800 architecture.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The walk was enjoyable from my hotel. But overall the venue was average as far as beer quality. read more

This is a great spot located right off Huntsville's historic downtown square. This is a fantastic area with a lot of great places to visit. This is nice brewery with a good live music calendar. There seems to be a decent number of regulars here and they have a good selection of their own beer along with some other interesting beverage options. They also allow open containers outside with a "purple cup" during certain times so hopefully they can eventually gain full go cup freedom like New Orleans has. Overall this is a pleasant spot to grab a beer and relax. My video review of Green Bus Brewing is here: https://youtu.be/2_RobkIZ6Vs read more

Stopped in for a flight and a snack. First off, love that they had boiled peanuts. We were just visiting from Indiana so it was fun to try, and they were delicious. As for the beer they were pretty good. My favorite was the blonde. My boyfriends favorite was the honey wheat. The earl grey was interesting to try, we've never had anything like that. That's a beer I'd like to drink cold by the pool in the summer, so refreshing. We weren't huge fans of the mulberry imperial cream ale. It had a nice flavor right when it hits your tongue but the after taste is very very sweet, which isn't our favorite. Overall a great little brewery to try in Huntsville! read more

Was recommended to visit Green Bus Brewing when I was staying in Huntsville for several weeks. The atmosphere was very relaxed and it definitely had a very laid back vibe. The plastic cups on the outdoor patio was a nice touch although we specifically sat inside. I wished they had asked if we were going outside because I would have preferred the glass being offered on the first order - order number two they fixed it when I asked for glass Staff was great - I had several questions about the different options and tried a sour and then a mead. They let me taste the sour prior to getting the whole pint (it was excellent) and will be a go to from now on. The bathroom is in the way back and the lock was broken and could not be locked which is minor and probably will be fixed. Overall my advice is give it a try - the brewery is one of the better ones in the whole area the vibe is amazing and your biggest problem will be figuring out what to try. I liked the beer better then the mead so I'd stick to that side of the board read more

Downtown Huntsville. Our 8th stop on the Huntsville Beer Trail -- we were determined to get that dang bottle opener!!! LOL. But this stop was great. In an old building. Right in the center of the city. Loved the hippy vibe. Beers were good. The beer flight carrier was fun as well. Were told a local artist designed and cut them out. read more

Looked like a great place, walked in and had good ambiance, but.... Unlike what's posted, they do not allow dogs. Only Service Dogs. Which is unfortunate because Migo isn't certified yet. Anywho, I had the blonde, paid my tab and left. Please allow dogs. It's Migos goal to hit all the breweries. read more

Stopped here to get a drink for the ghost tour. I decided to try their Apple pie cider, which was amazing for fall. They have the famous purple cups for to go drinks. Also a craft beer trail stop but I forgot my passport. Boo. read more

On a self guided walking tour of Huntsville, which included stops on a "craft coffee trail", we happened upon this place. Total transparency: I needed a restroom after so many cups of coffee so we wanted to order something and not be rude just using their facilities. As I was on a coffee trail challenge (10 spots earn one a coffee mug) and it was still quite early in the day I wasn't up for a beer so I ordered a flavored seltzer, not usually my thing but it was really delicious and refreshing. Being early in the day, there was just one other couple in there. It was quiet and dark, could've been kind of dismal if not for the great conversation with the barkeep. We noticed all the great music related art work which got us to talking about music.... For quite some time. Turned out to be a lovely little break from our coffee trail. IT ALSO LED TO HIM TELLING US ABOUT THE CRAFT BEER TRAIL which we also partook in. I look forward to visiting Green Bus on a return trip to Huntsville. read more

Wonderful place. Love the ambiance and interior aesthetic. Great, helpful, friendly customer service. Eclectic menu. I'd recommend this place for craft beer fans! read more

A decent brewery that is part of a surprisingly decent sized craft beer community in Huntsville, Alabama. I know of at least seven craft breweries located in Rocket City. The brewery is located in downtown Huntsville and has a friendly, welcoming vibe. I must say on this last visit I tried their English style pale ale and enjoyed it. This is a good spot to while away some time and satiate your thirst. Check it out and if you have a moment, sample some of the other local breweries that are defining craft beer in the Huntsville area. You won't be disappointed. read more

Green Bus is just one of those places you have to see for yourself. There is pretty good selection of their own brews. The staff has always been nice and helpful with recommendations. I like their IPAs on tap - they usually have more than one to try. read more

Friendly servers, welcoming environment and decent beers -- some of the best beers in HSV.

Good beers! Love the selection, some easy quick bites, and excellent service. Highly recommend this spot

Strong dark was a really good beer! The IPAs in our flight were okay, but not great. They had three food items, quesadilla, chips and salas and boiled peanuts. The quesadilla was actually pretty good! read more

We were visiting from out of state. They were helpful and friendly in recommending what to try. Beer was very tasty. Brewery has a small town feel to it. We would definitely return. read more

Love Greenbus! Their mead is always awesome! We always end up here after a night of good food.

Great spot to grab a beer. The bartender was awesome and the owner is a pleasure to chat with. The stout was awesome.

I visited one weekend on a recent day trip to Huntsville. They were really doing a great job mandating people wear their masks. Their policy at the time was you could only remove your mask while drinking. However, I wasn't drinking at the time because I was too hot. The bartender brought me a glass of water and told me about the policy, which I felt was a really nice way of enforcing the rule. Unfortunately, they were all out of ciders when we visited. However, their kombucha is soooooooooo good. I honestly think it's the best I've ever tried. And the small size comes in the cutest glass :) The prices are CHEAP, the service was friendly, and I could see this being a great place to have board game night or something during non-COVID times (maybe during covid times if you keep it small?). I'll definitely stop by whenever I'm in Huntsville. read more

Green Bus Brewing is an awesome, small brewery in downtown Huntsville that keeps a plethora of different unique beers on tap at cheap prices ($5.50 a beer) with lots of variety and flavor. They brew in small batches, so while they do have staple beers they are often changing up the styles and flavors available. This makes coming to Green Bus regularly a nice perk so you can see what's new. The interior is a little small and cozy, and sometimes they have live music but never anything too loud for conversation. Staff has always been friendly and quick to make a suggestion. Grabbing a to go beer in a purple cup is always a great way to spend a Friday or weekend stroll around the downtown. They have limited food, which is understandable given the small space, but I believe they also have a Grub South station in case you want to order in. Would absolutely recommend to anyone coming through the downtown area. read more

Finally got to try Green Bus while I was in town. If I was rating on beers, I might even rate a bit higher, as they did well on a wide variety of styles, but there are both pluses and minuses. The atmosphere is rather plain. Not unusual for a microbrewery, but after visiting so many, this is very downplayed, even for a micro. I had the bartender select my flight for me, and I was, overall, pleased. I was especially impressed with their pumpkin spice cider. I am not a huge fan of pumpkin spice, but I felt it was nicely blended with the cider in this one. The rest of the flight was rated between 3 and 4 on Untappd. I was least impressed with the IPA I tried. It was the Blood Orange Milkshake, which is one of the lactose infused beers. These can be hit or miss with me. The Oktoberfest was a nice marzen style, and the Blueberry Tart hit the spot. If they do other tarts similar, I could definitely see them as a winner. Nice bar. Friendly staff. Good service. I would definitely consider a return trip. read more

Friendly micro brewery right downtown. Lineup consists of 10-12 beers and several meads. You know you're in Alabama when you see they serve boiled peanuts. If you like to sample the local Huntsville beers give this place a try. You won't go wrong with dad bus dunkelweizen, or the dominant red. Parking available on the street or in a nearby lot. read more

Low key, comfy brick-walled place with friendly staff on a Saturday afternoon. Watermelon wheat was refreshing. They have adult slushies that is like to try next time. Reasonable prices. read more

Green Bus Brewing is one of my favorite breweries in Huntsville. They have a small, cozy taproom in the downtown area and a diverse beer menu featuring everything from ales to IPAs. I'm a big fan of their meads and ciders -- during the holiday season, their unique gingerbread mead is my personal favorite. Green Bus has seating inside and a few chairs outside. You can also get your beer to go in a purple cup and enjoy it while walking around Huntsville's entertainment district. read more

I love seeing the continuing trend of craft breweries in Huntsville. Green Bus is in a great, rustic, location downtown and is just a hop-and-a-jump from Commerce Kitchen and Harrison Brothers. It is dog friendly and includes some really great beers. I opted for the Bus Rye'd Pale Ale and it was delicious. It was buttery, flavorful, and 6.8% ABV...highly recommend it if you like mid-to-dark ales. The ambiance of Green Bus is great and is in a wonderful location downtown. Definitely give it a try when you're out near the square. read more

Visited Green Bus Brewing about 3 wks ago. Great service, friendly atmosphere and good beer. Only reason I gave it 4 stars is because they don't have food other than the chicken quesadilla. read more

My husband and his friend and I went here one night. I've never been able to find a beer that I actually like. I can say that their peach beer was one of the best tasting beers I've ever had. You can get samples of their beers for $2.50 so that is very nice! I'm not a big beer drinker but it seemed to be a very popular place. I wasn't a fan of the feel of the place; however, it is a hood place to have a beer and a conversation. read more

Dark and not very friendly...serviced us flat beer and when we questioned it they said they knew.They said it's not carbonated enough....They served it anyway! read more

Great location! There's beer. Witchy (but not in the festive way) blonde bartender (Danielle).

I stopped in for a drink with a few people today, and the drinks were good. I had a cran apple cider, and I tasted the house made muscadine mead. A good place to stop for a beer. read more

Atmosphere is great and bartenders are friendly. This brewery has stepped it's game up since opening a couple years ago. The location - right across from the courthouse downtown - makes it an easy walk from anywhere in the downtown area. Great "flagship" beers on the menu and there are some excellent seasonal that pop up. Music almost every weekend. Sometimes I don't even check to see if there's going to be live music, I just bank on it and head that way. This is a nice get away from the often crowded breweries surrounding the outskirts of downtown. Very much recommended. OH, and they have snacks! read more

Not the best selection and staff not helpful when asked about recommendations. Pricing was fair though.

An amazing corner pub atmosphere with superb handcrafted brews and some of the best bartenders you'll find. If you want a laid back place to have an incredible IPA or dark beer, or handmade hard cider, then this is the place for you. Plus, they have great guitarists later in the evenings. It's a bar you can call home. 6 stars. read more

Cool setting , friendly people , and most importantly great beer Great addition to the downtown scene read more

Small time local brewery with unfortunately a lack of atmosphere. The decor and renovations are top notch but the atmosphere is sub par. If you are one of the first to arrive with a handful of people it's almost as quite as a library. I asked twice and I know two other people in my group of twelve asked as well for the manager to turn up the music so the awkward silence taking over the bar in between our conversations would go away but he was not very receptive to our requests. The music is probably a decimal below whatever level elevator music is usually at and only can be heard if standing at the front door. Once a crowd takes over the bar that awkward silence goes away but music would boost this spot's prestige. Probably won't be back but may give them another shot in a month or so. Best of luck to them! read more
