I love the live music, the wine and beer, and the huge pretzels served with Obatzda and sweet honey mustard. I also met The Biermen here last summer when they were performing and now I've followed them around and have seen them a few other times. This place is a great way to make new friends!

Prices are $15-$18 depending on the day. Brayson was our tour guide & gave an interesting overview of the history of Sprecher & beer/soda making so you can enjoy your drink better armed with the background knowledge. You can also skip the tour & freebie glass & just get the tastings for $10, a fantastic deal. Drink: I loved the non alcoholic beer. The best NA beer I've had. I would describe it as having a complex flavor profile with something vanilla like. The 2 other beers I tried were ok, good, not great. I'm mostly sugar free on the weekdays, minus the sugar I use in cooking so the sodas were way too sweet for my very personal taste. I liked the maple root beer the best. Food: The pretzel is gigantic, so fun & great for sharing. Extremely delicious. Pillowly goodness with mustard dip & cheese dip, both yummy. Service: Great tour, great bartender & service. Don't forget to have some cash for the tip jar. Ambiance: It's a casual bar setup. Pro tip: You must get the pretzel. I will be back for this & the non alcoholic beer.

While in town, I decided to give this place a try since it was walking distance from the hotel. The…read moreworkers welcomed us and helped us decide the best drink based on what we liked. They were warm and friendly, and didn't make us feel rushed at all. I decided on the mule, which was on tap. It was decent. For food, we got the giant pretzel and garlic Parmesan wings. We definitely underestimated the size of the pretzel and couldn't finish it. It can definitely be shared with groups of 3-6 people. That being said, it was very delicious! The wings were good, but I wasn't overly impressed. Obviously it's a brewery, so they're going to be more known for their beer than their food. Both the pretzel and the wings were a good lunch for my boyfriend and I to share (but a bit much like I mentioned!). There were lots of people of all ages there to do the tour. We didn't get a chance to do that, so I can't speak on it, but I can say it seemed popular!

We have gone to the Bierhaus several times, and I have never left overly impressed. The drinks and…read morevibe are good, but the food has never been that great. This past visit we ordered the cheese board, which also came with a giant pretzel and some bread. Why? I have no idea. The pretzel was cold, and we didn't touch the bread. The cheeses on the board were just slices like you'd find in a deli. There was also lettuce, tomato, red onion and pickles on the side, but why? I have no idea. To make a sandwich? That's not the idea of a cheese board. Our friends ordered the salmon, which came with a side of brussel sprouts. I couldn't get past the color of the sprouts. Barely green. My friend passed on the whole dish. If you're looking to watch a game and grab a beer, this place is great for groups, and service is good. However, if you're looking for dinner too, I'd recommend eating elsewhere.

It's been a long time since I've been to this Oktoberfest. Finally made a return over the weekend…read moreand totally forgot what a big, electric crowd it brings! Parking was a wild time, as they were directing people to an entirely different lot down the way, so it was a bit of hike to get to the entrance. Once we parked, we waited in like for 10 minutes or to get through the gates. I was tipped off the downland the Bavarian's app ahead of time, which got me $5 off my entry (and it was free from my little kiddo in tow). If you're looking for all the great German beer, German music, and German cuisine, this is your place! It's so fun to see how many attendees dress to theme in their lederhosens, dirndls, and hats. Some of the staff dress up as well, and of course those preforming on stage! We came to find out this isn't the greatest fest to take young kids, as the crowds are big, the lines are long, and the music (be it so fun and festive), is really loud. I'm sure we would have stayed longer if it was an adult-only trip. In any case, the food and drink are fare price. I'm now regretting not ordering the traditional pretzel and sausage options, but splitting a tasty platter of tenders and fries with my son hit the spot. Being pregnant, I'm not drinking, but friends we were with has nothing but great things to say about their German pints. The beer steins are of course an option which is a fun touch. Hot tip: if you can book a table reservation ahead of time, do so! That's what we did and it was a good call since this place is poppin. Happy official Fall! Enjoy!

We had a seat at the bar and ordered a couple drinks from the lone bartender working that day. We also ordered a pretzel since we were starving. They'd run out of mustard, but at that point I didn't even care. The bartender proceeded to take couple more orders then brought our Old Fashioneds. They were very good, but he didn't ask if we wanted them neat or sweet and apparently they offer them both ways. Then he forgot about our pretzel order and took even more drink orders. I know because I watched him with growing hanger and just when I was going to say something he caught it and apologized. Eventually we got a warmed Milwaukee Pretzel Company treat to fill the empty space in me. I think this could be a great place to hang out with friends, with beer and a few non-beer options on order. They have the pretzels and Flour Child pizzas you can eat on site. You can also buy the pizzas to go. The service might need a little more attention, but this is a nice place to hang out.

And if none of that is your jam, then bring your own! The joint is dog-friendly, so if you aren't a fan of canines, this may not be the place for you. Outside food is encouraged as they do not have a kitchen of any kind, so feel free to order something, just remember to bring plates, napkins, and utensils if you need them. There are some card/board games and a chalkboard for the kids so you can definitely hang out here for a while with a small or even large group. Street parking is plentiful, too! If you need a fun space for a few folks to get together, you would be hard-pressed to do better than Amophic.
