    The beer menu and the Buckeyes putting on Arkansas St.
    Bill M.

    I finally got to the brewery itself. I'm happy to report that the beer is better on tap than in the can. The facility is huge, with loads of parking and seating. Service was quick and friendly. One of the owners was working the bar. I like that kind of dedication and concern for the business. One sip of the Oktoberfest and I got a pint. It's a nice slightly malted, slightly bitter offering. Their beer menu is interesting as I suspected knowing that they started with limited capacity (or relabeling beer from another local brewery). They brew three beers, a light, a pale ale, and an Oktoberfest. The rest of the board consists of mostly local guest taps. There appears to be a tremendous amount of brewing capacity in the back of the building, so I assume that they will begin to fill the board with their own beers over time. The benefit right now is that you can try a beer from a few of the other local guys without going there. Here on a Saturday around 3 and the place was doing a brisk business. The game helped I'm sure but honestly given the size, it's hard to gauge. This place definitely gets a recommendation.

    Penguin City Brewery has moved to the old Republic Steel warehouse on Federal Street in Downtown Youngstown. They had their soft opening on July 1st, 2022. The bar features not only Penguin City beers, but also several other popular beers from other breweries plus a nice selection of wines, and liquors. We visited the brewery with another couple that are very good friends, and we each did a flight of beers that are on tap. My wife and I also purchased a half growler of Jamaica Me Crazy for take out. A fun local brewery! I hope that many people who live in the Youngstown area will support the Penguin City brewery.

    Great atmosphere. Certainly fair prices. Why is Jason B. always in here complaining? Just stay home if you want to be cheap, dude

    Awesome spot with great local beer! They also have all sorts of fun stuff like cornhole and dart leagues and a rotating food truck for grub.

    Cool brewery in Youngstown. Even better was the adjacent cider house, Dope. Add the food trucks and there's something for everyone.

    Great selection and atmosphere. Nice people with some fine entertainment. Well done!!!read more

    Tasted a flight of the five you see in the picture. Lots of potential in this new brewing…read moreoperation. I think they are only available in restaurants and bars right now. I tasted them at Iron Mann in Girard. Shout out to those guys for having this extensive selection, along with great, friendly service I'd say check out 1547 wherever you find them and see how your tastes compare to mine... My impression of the beers (always a subjective matter, of course) went down something like this: 1400 Miles From Home - a Key Lime Sour. Very light sour, to my liking, with all of the flavors in the description working together quite nicely Kolsch - another light version of this style. It is a good summer beer for someone who wants a little more flavor than a Bud/Coors/Miller Ohio Heat Wave - subtle habanero on the back end slowly builds, but that's about the only thing I'm picking up. This is a very light beer Hang 11 - a sweet IPA? The bitterness is as advertised. Would love to know the hops involved. Very drinkable, but don't expect a mouthful of IPA. More like a sweet, session IPA in my opinion Shooktown NE IPA - first taste hit very nice. Like most of them, it tastes very close to the description. No bitterness, but like others on the flight, it's a light version of this style. I'm used to a more potent hit of juice from a NE IPA, it's drinkable for sure

They have an incredible selection of beers on tap with pale ales, IPA's, fruit flavors, stouts and more. There were so many that sounded amazing that I couldn't choose just one. Luckily they have a tasting tray of four beers for people like me who can't decide! They were all delicious and flavorful making it impossible to choose a favorite. Plus the amazing worker behind the bar suggested mixing the orange creamsicle and Red Dragon (raspberry) together which was a like a little bit of summer making a welcome appearance in winter! If you like something sweet this is for you. I wasn't sure what to expect from the food but it exceeded both mine and my friend's expectations! The onion rings had a thin coating on them and weren't rough at all which is how I like them. The tavern dipping sauce was so good and mixed very well with the ranch. We had a hard time deciding which flatbread to choose because they all sounded amazing but decided to go with the Chivalry which was a white pizza with chicken, mozzarella, ranch, and banana peppers. It was definitely the right choice! Fantastic food and drinks mixed with great service made for a fun night from start to finish. Already planning my next trip here!

They were all very good and a few, such as the Red Knight, were excellent. After careful consideration, we opted to order a pizza and stay for another drink. The pizza, jalapeño popper inspired, was a delicious complement. Would strongly recommend a visit! Weather permitting, the outside patio is also a plus!
