    OKTOBERFEST LAGER: 5.7% ABV. OUR TAKE ON A CLASSIC MUNICH FEST BIER. SOME MALTY SWEETNESS ALONG WITH SOME ROASTY FLAVOR. PROST!!!
    Steve P.

    Strolling through the little town of Ashland we stopped in Origin Beer Lab. What great service and wonderful beer. We sat out front and enjoyed the great taste of an Oktoberfest. They have a great area out back as well for couples and smaller groups.

    So... giving a five star rating here because it is literally a beer lab, people! Sometimes you have to get outside yourself... why not try some beverages that make it or tank?!? But... they probably mostly make it as they are good choices! Between the two of us, an almost complete flight (we did 8/9 available) and one of our choices to top off made for a good time. I'll be back!

    They even have a house-made seltzer for those of us that are gluten free or don't like beer. It's such a cool place!!

    No food just beer. It's right in the heart of Downtown Ashland, and when the weather is nice they open up the windows. Plenty of places close by that you could walk to to get food and eat there. The beer list changes all the time

    This place was great and the guy Mike who works there was so friendly. He really went above and beyond to help us so I wanted to mention him on here. The town itself is really quaint, and this spot really stood out to me. The vibe was really nice and they even allow dogs on the patio! We purchased two growlers (16 oz.) and a t-shirt for a little under $30. Growler fills for the smaller size are $12! Not a bad deal... Center of the Universe is also owned by the same owner of this place and from what Mike, the guy who helped us, said all the popular beers from here become a seasonal at their other location.

    This is the "testing" site for COTU brewery. It's situated in an old building with exposed brick and minimal decor. The beer speaks for itself. Don't forget to pick up some adorable beer glasses they look like beakers with their logo. I was lucky to receive the last glass of this pineapple beer with an almost champagne consistency. Delicious!!! Enjoyed my afternoon with friends at COTU and Origin.

    Beer is science! We loved our tour!

    Corey the brewmaster at Origin is fantastic! My friends from DC came down to celebrate 60 years of our good friend Jim on the planet. Corey gave a personal tour of the lab and even gave Jim a complimentary birthday beer. Thank you Origin for making this experience so special! We will be back again for sure!!!

    Strong lager

    Nice smaller brewery with some different types of beer. Not typical but delightful. I had a strong lager that was GREAT! Nice setting in Ashland right next to the rail tracks.

    Check out the adorable little 5 oz flight glasses!

    Kregger's Tap and Table has ample outdoor seating; about one-third of it is covered. Because it was…read moresuch a hot evening, we spent time surveying the outdoor area. While we found a shaded table with a nice breeze outdoors, the chairs were wet and the table was tilted, so we ultimately opted to dine inside. Inside, a band was setting up for music later in the evening, and they boast a large selection of beers on tap. Despite the indoor area being almost full, we were waited on quickly, and our food arrived promptly. For my main course, I had a classic burger (normally served with cheese). Since I prefer no pink, I ordered it without any pink element, which was great as it kept the flavor clean. The exterior had a nice char that added depth to the flavor. The burger was served with thick slices of tomato, onion, and lettuce, a small amount of mustard, and on the side were jalapeno and hot dill pickles. The seasoned fries were very good, though they were slightly too salty for my taste (I'm not a big salt person). If you need to limit your sodium intake, I suggest skipping the seasoned fries. My wife ordered the Ahi Tuna Tacos, which were delicious and beautifully encrested. While she found the coating flavor was unusual with tuna initially, adding lime juice made it perfect. When I tried a piece, we noticed that the tuna might have been cooked on the same surface as my burger, picking up some of the char, which added an interesting element. Overall, the service was excellent throughout, and both our meals were enjoyable and served hot and quickly. The atmosphere is lively, filled with customers enjoying the music. We didn't stay for the band (which I'm sure would have enhanced the mood), but we noted that the outdoor tables are quieter and suitable for families--though this might change later in the evening. This spot is perfect whether you're looking for a quick meal or an enjoyable evening with live music.

    There seem to be several American style tap houses in the Ashland area. Kreggers is also located…read morein a strip mall and has a small outdoor patio. The inside has TVs all over- my kids loved that a couple even had cartoons on for them. The server was great the entire meal. They have a good lunch special menu- i went with the brisket tacos which were two large tacos loaded with meat and corn salsa plus a pepper sauce. They had a great kick to them. The spicy chips on the side were also great, and much better than the standard fries that seem to come with everything at these types of places. Its a good option right off the highway for a stop.

    I was so excited to visit this place after reading all the positive reviews; however, our…read moreexperience was a letdown due to the hospitality (or lack of it). We were here earlier than usual (10:30 am, don't judge me for drinking before noon!!!) and we're the only customers. It's uniquely located at a camp ground, but parking is a bit limited. The tasting room is small but has amble seating. There was a piano in the tasting room and no one was at the tasting room when we entered. My daughter who is a beginner pianist, wanted to play. Since there were no signs on the piano that forbid people touching, she went ahead and played. Then an older gentleman came in and told us in a stern tone that the piano is not for playing. He was not friendly at all and even after we apologized and ordered a flight for sampling, he still was not engaging. I'm not sure if he is the brew master or just someone works for the campsite store, but he didn't seem too happy to be there. We had the 2 stouts, an Amber, and pilsner on tap for our flight. They were all just OK. We didn't want to order more because his attitude and the sense that we were not welcomed there... Which was too bad because it was a nice space with plenty of outdoor seating, a playground in the back for kids to play while parents enjoy some refreshing beer. We will most likely not go back again given the cold-shoulder treatment.

    Hidden gem located in a camping area just off Jeff Davis Highway. Drank several of the two IPAs…read morethey have on tap; top notch. Small, but well-stocked brew store next door. Gentleman behind the bar (the owner, I suspect) was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Quiet and quaint atmosphere. I'm a fan.
