We actually visited this brewery twice, so I'm kind of combining both experiences into one review…read more The first time we stopped by on a Friday, and the place was absolutely packed. There were just too many people, so we decided to grab dinner elsewhere and come back another day. The next afternoon, we returned hoping for a less crowded experience, and we're glad we did. The female hosts were very friendly and let us know the rooftop bar had just opened, so of course we had to check it out! The bartenders were all wicked chill, and the views from upstairs were amazing. We loved the unique beer flavors and combinations, and the flight options let us sample quite a variety. Although we didn't try any food, they do have a food menu available. The entire place was very clean, which we appreciated. There is metered street parking both in the front and behind the building, so if you can't find a spot out front, be sure to check the back street. Overall, we highly recommend this brewery if you're visiting the area and would definitely stop by again!

49th State Brewing comes highly recommended, likely due to its great location, set up and feel…read more During the summer months there's also an outdoor area that has live music. The wait for anything in the building was 45 minutes and there were many open tables. I get it, perhaps they were short staffed, were on a shift flip or we were just misquoted. Not too big of a deal, so we just chose to dine outside at the food truck they run as one of their options during the summer. What a mistake and I hope the interior dining is better, but I can't comment on it other than the wait. Service at the truck was VERY SLOW, staff was not attentive and even somewhat rude. Food took FOREVER but it didn't really make sense because my dog came out still frozen in the center (or at least very chilled). I threw it away and spit out the first bite- I ordered a Brawt so I couldn't take the chance of getting sick. The other dogs we got were small and wimpy for the prices being paid. The smash burger- that was great and the was pretzel also great. Local sodas - delicious. Normally I would have complained and let them have the chance to fix the food, because shit happens, but the counter staff was so rude on the get, I assume they'd not care, and who knows... plus no one has 30 minutes to wait for a hot dog. $80 experiment that we ended up having to have second lunch to fix. I would say... come give it a try but don't get excited just because it keeps getting recommended. They're still figuring out how to be more than a brewery.
