    a large crowd of people

    A terrific venue for live music and beer. Free parking, handicap accessible (beer hall is on the 2nd floor) via an elevator, and tables with benches. It's been a while since I stopped down for some beers in their tasting room, so I was surprised to see a wide range of styles on tap. I tried five of them. The only one which was a swing and a miss was the Belgian Blonde. Too hoppy, thing body and slightly tangy. The others were the Irish Red, Dark Lager, ESB and the Apricot Ale. These were all spot on. I look forward to more shows and brews.

    I have started going to shows at Middle Ages and it is such a great time. Unfortunately I can't drink much of the alcohol they have on tap, except for the Double vision cider from Down East they seem to carry sometimes but always run out. My friends say their beer is "okay", not their favorite but also not the worst. Also know going in that there is no food here so stop somewhere else before you go to a show. The bartenders are very nice and always seem super into the music which is fun. The space is pretty big which is surprising when you go into this industrial building and up the stairs. Could easily see this being a space for a party, wedding, anything. It even had an elevator for accessibility. It tends to be warm up there so keep that in mind. It is a ton of fun!

    Incredible beer selection here!

    Great night out at MIDDLE AGES BREWING!!! Daya and Ryan provided great service on our last stop of the night! Daya served me a combo New England IPA + Strawberry Sour in a pint that hit it out of the park! This place is the measuring stick for all local craft breweries ! Sporting great beer, live music and incredible service, this place ROCKS!!!

    First off, I love a good wheat beer, and their Jester's Nectar is pretty good. A nice brew: balanced, not bitter, and with a good touch of citrus. Very easy drinking. I'd like to come back and try more varieties in the future. Having grown up visiting Renaissance fairs with my mom, I get a kick out of the very aptly named Middle Ages' theme. It seems like this would be a fun place to come and hang out, though obviously that's not something I'd chose to do right now. Will have to make it a point to swing by sometime once their bingo and trivia nights are eventually back in session!

    TL;DR: Good selection of in-house beers, excellent staff, wonderful ambiance, and *infinite* menu ***Ambiance*** This place has an unassuming storefront. But that's not a negative and totally adds to the unassuming, casual, no-nonsense ambiance of this place. The entrance features a big wooden door. Heavy and constructed from dark wood that adds to the Middle Ages theme. After opening the massive door, I was almost expecting to see a shadowy dungeon walkway, which was only illuminated by the fire from torches. Unfortunately, the lobby that I stepped into was well-illuminated and not at all dungeonous. They have an open dining space with well-separated tables (for twos and fours) and a mile-long bar. The space was clean and uncluttered. The tables were all wooden and had a dark wood finish, which added to the theme. The beer menu was displayed on the electronic monitors, which to me felt a bit out of place. But I am no Ethane Allen, so WTF do I know. The best feature of the room by far was the rows of taps of beer behind the counter. ***Staff and service*** The only thing better than the beer here is the staff and their hospitality. Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted by the friendly bartender. I wanted to do a beer flight (see pic), and I went into deep (and extended) self-reflection of picking my top 4 beers for that evening. The bartender was polite and friendly and kept his patience during that entire time. Me being a complete ass and a self-absorbed beer-snob, forgot to ask his name (so that I could mention it here). ***Food*** They do not have an on-site kitchen. But they do have some pre-packaged snacks (chips & pretzels) and a fridge with cheese and salami. They also allow patrons to bring their own food or have food delivered to them. I did end up doing both: first, I got some cheese and salami from the fridge and then ordered delivery through DoorDash (restaurant reviewed separately). After seeing me struggling to open the package of salami for 10 minutes, the bartender graciously provided me with a pair of scissors. The cheese & salami combo was very good and in combination with the beer, hit all the right spots. ***Drinks*** In my flight of four, I got Storm the castle, late knight, salt city IPA, and black heart. Storm the castle is a hazy IPA and has been my all-time favorite from this brewery. I was informed by Untappd that this was the third check-in of Storm the Castle from this location. The late knight was the surprise of the evening. A nice crisp, strong IPA. It is so well-balanced that you can balance a pint on your head while doing a handstand :). Salt city IPA had some tough competition from the other two IPAs in the lineup, but it held its own. It kind of grew on me throughout the evening. A clear favorite when you don't want to drink your favorite IPA. No comments on black heart. I also tried the fearless 2022 which is a coffee stout. My tablemate correctly predicted that it would be sweet and boozy, and it was a tad sweet for me. I was really hoping for more of a coffee flavor to come through. It did serve as a good dessert (instead of coffee) to cap the evening. ***PROTIP*** Order your food delivery BEFORE you arrive at the location. That way you can time your drinks and food perfectly! ***Overall*** It was a wonderful experience, and I would definitely repeat. Highly recommended!

    Let me walk you through our visit (which was on a Thursday around 1 pm). We parked along Wilkinson St. but weren't sure if parking was ok there (since there are signs at both ends of the block about no stopping or something.) We didn't get towed, and the bartender said we should be fine. The building looks old, industrial but they've added some friendly touches like a tent for outdoor, warm-weather sitting, and a "speak-easy" little face-door in the entrance door. The bar area is one large room with plenty of tables and a long bar sitting area. I counted about 22 beers on tap all made by Middle Ages, so that's impressive. The bartender was helpful, informative and took care of us without us having to hail him down. There were about a dozen men in the place and only 1 woman (my daughter) at the time. I'm sure that ratio is more even during weekend evenings. The flight cost was $14 (each) and you will get a 3.5% extra charge if you use your credit card. The beers were all pretty good. I particularly liked the Nitro Recess Stout (coffee flavored) and the Dinosaur Ape (hint of apricot). They also offered canned beers and merch for purchase. The dragon head on the wall, the suit of knight armor, etc. is cool for about 5 minutes.

    What an absolute gem! So their Dino Ape Hanger Ale is a staple and a personal favorite, but there's nothing medieval about the variety/quantity of brews available here. Honestly, just a solid all-around brewery. Knowledgeable, personable staff and a great layout! Highly recommend.

    Bartender was super rude and wouldn't give us money for keg back. Not that hard to be nice to people buddy.

    Do they have any seating in the beer hall during concerts? Will be there for a show with my elderly Father in law and hoping to find him a seat.

    I was having beers in the main room. The concert venue is on the 2nd floor. I'm not sure about the space and seating up there. I would suggest giving them a call.

    It's been a while since I'd last been but everything is as amazing as I remembered…read more I've seen them advertise their monthly "flight night" events for some time but never actually had been to one. When I saw an espresso martini and cake pairing, I knew I had to pull the trigger. Met up with some friends and we all ordered food beforehand to offset the impending sugar rush. I'd had their naan pizza in the past and loved it, so this time I went with the one that had caramelized onions and goat cheese. AMAZING. Crispy crust, melty cheese, tangy onions and the perfect amount of everything in every bite. Then onto the main event: the flights! The staff brought over our cake and drinks and were so great about explaining what to pair together. (There was also a card) Desserts were a carrot cake with the most impossibly airy icing, a pistachio cheesecake with chocolate ganache, and a chocolate cake with a light nutella icing. I'm usually a carrot cake girlie and while I enjoyed it, the cheesecake was actually my favorite. Just the perfect pistachio flavor and a wonderful consistency -- so, so smooth. Our waitress told us that the owner is the one that makes all of the desserts too. A multi-talented queen. As far as the martinis, my favorite was the affogato one. These flight-nights are one-off events and the items aren't normally on the menu, so if you see one that looks extra appealing, get yourself there! I've been for normal service too though, and honestly, never have had a misfire here. One thing I especially love is the option to order drinks in 5oz pours, a godsend for lightweights like me. Ambiance, food, drinks, all excellent.

    Great service with friendly bartenders. Food is good, if a little expensive for what you get and…read morecocktails are interesting and well made. The place is small, cute, and clean. Street parking is available and there was plenty of spaces when I arrived.
