Picaroon's Brewtique is an amazing beer store…read more Why? Because: a) Cheap bear. Basically, it is 10$ for 1,89L of craft beer. Basically 10$, because, at the first buy, you need to buy a growler at 10$. If 1,89L is too much, 500 mL beer bottles await you in the cooler next to the counter. b) The variety. A good selection of craft beers that can please almost anyone. You don't like IPA? Here, have a blonde or a dark and so on. c) The staff: beer-lovers selling beer to beer-lovers.

There is a restaurant on site but it was closed when I went (Monday afternoon). However, there was a food truck on site with burgers, chicken wings, fish and chips and other pub fare ($12-16 range for big portions). There is also the Muse coffee on site but again only on certain days (I think Thursdays-Sundays). Service was very friendly and for non-beer drinkers like myself, they had a cider and several choices for wines. They also had non-alcohol beer available. The boutique has a lot of their beers as well as local liquors, t-shirts, dog toys and other gifts. It's super dog friendly and there is bike parking as well. Very relaxing place to stop by while exploring the area.

The beer selection is extensive, with plenty to choose from. We came for a flight on the way out of town, and decided to get some food. Luckily right next door, is an attached restaurant/pub that serves simple pub fare. You can order and they will give you a buzzer to let you know when the food is ready. We got the burger with homemade chips and it was the perfect pairing with the beers! Would recommend for a place to hang out with friends and family.

The team behind the…read morebar is genuinely friendly, quick with a greeting, ready with tasting notes, and clearly proud of what they pour. The taproom itself is spotless (even the glassware sparkles), so you can focus on the main event: the brews. Every beer I tried, from the crisp, citrus-bright pale ale to the velvety chocolate stout showed off balanced flavors and a confident hand in the brewhouse. Grab a flight, settle in, and let the good vibes roll; Half Cut Brewery is the kind of place that turns first-time visitors into regulars.

Very casual and friendly atmosphere at this family run bar/restaurant in the woods country. We had a good variety of food items and it was all good. They make their own pizzas from scratch including the dough. Terry is the boss and his mom knits socks for sale. It's a popular place with the sledder and four wheeler crowd because it's so casual and laid back. They can hold a lot of people when it's full. The back room has a couple of pool tables and there's more bathrooms in back too. Live music on occasion, and that really brings in the crowds. Don't miss this hotspot in Juniper if you're passing through.

The staff are friendly and attentive. It gets very busy during certain times of year since the location attracts snow mobilers, ATV enthusiasts, canoe and kayakers. During these times there may be a bit of a wait for food, but they keep the drinks coming and it's always worth the wait .

Good food. I ordered a beer with some oysters as an appetizer, followed by a delicious brown-bag…read morefried fish (haddock, I believe) and a bowl of chorizo chili. Everything was excellent -- I basically inhaled the chili. The menu even included notes on pairing beers with each entrée or appetizer, which I appreciated. One thing I really liked about the oysters was that they were served on top of the ice rather than in it. I've been to places where the ice melts and leaves the oysters sitting in water, which isn't ideal. This restaurant clearly avoided that mistake. The kitchen was quick with our food and clearly held itself to a high standard of quality. It had been a long day for me, so maybe it was exactly what I needed. The restaurant itself isn't too small to feel cramped but just the right size to feel cozy -- high ceilings, beautiful chandeliers, and a comfortable atmosphere. I would definitely come back.

We kicked things…read moreoff with a four-pour flight and loved every sip: * Blueberry Ale - Light, juicy, and just sweet enough; like summer in a glass. * Rocket Pop Sour - Show-stopper status: electric tartness with nostalgic popsicle vibes. * Vibe Check IPA - Bright citrus and pine, perfectly balanced bitterness--IPA lovers, take note. * Italian Stout - Espresso-rich, silky, and dessert-worthy without being cloying. Beyond the glass, the space is spotless and welcoming. Tables are stocked with board games (always a win), so you can settle in for a marathon round of Beer trivia or just a quick cribbage match, between pours. Friendly staff, chilled soundtrack, and plenty of room to relax seal the deal. Bottom line: Trail Way pairs top-tier brews with a playful, laid-back atmosphere. Plan on staying longer than you think--you won't want to leave.
