The beer that Steve and I had was the Red Band which is a lager which I enjoy the majority of the time. Flavors to find with hopefully fun involved are malty, sweet (a natural sweetness probably from the flaked corn involved), hoppy, crisp and clean in the finish. Typical for this beer type it was light bodied also. Swag was indeed purchased here as I knew the likelihood of this happening was high and I got a very nifty t-shirt from the transaction.

I drive from Columbus about 2x a month or more depending on what they have going on and they usually do. Absolute best beer garden which makes sense they have been voted #1 by USA Today's Reader choice. I've been coming here the last couple of years - heard about it through someone I knew. They host craft markets, farmers markets, mini shows to bigger ones - North to Nashville has played here. The beers are good and the service is great. Parking is across he street in the field - they have foods trucks and constantly post on their Instagram about the food trucks. It's an old farm that has been converted into. Brewery - lots of space and tables inside. Great seating outdoors as well - bring chairs for shows bc tables may be taken. There is a trail along the backside so sometimes you'll see people riding horses. It's close to Alum Creek and is Grear for star gazing in the summer. I love coming here to get out of the city life. Sometimes I'll bring a book, grab a drink and just hang out. Really good spot. Enjoy!

Several times I have meet friends or family here and every time there has been a line to get a drink. Not to tough..... fix it.....and let your customers sit down and enjoy a beer instead of standing in line, the beers are not cheap you can afford to flex up when you get busy. Oh and don't try to make things easier on the group you are with, I was told everyone waits in-line when I tried to get a drink for someone in my group who didn't do their time. Lots of rules as mentioned in other posts...we slid two tables together so our group could sit together. (You should put s sign up about this!)Pretty quickly someone came out and separated them telling us if we do it "everyone will think they can too"! Not very customer friendly business in my opinion.

Enjoy the beautiful pond or take your beer for a stroll on the short trail out back. Rather stay indoors? They've got plenty of table games and pinball machines to keep you occupied! As for food, they've had many options over the years but as of right now (Oct 2024), they have a Mexican food truck out front. I believe it is always there but double check. I just enjoyed the cheesiest quesadilla there. My husband and father absolutely love their beer. And they usually always have a sour on tap for me. I also like their Turbo Water (hard seltzer) - MUCH better than a white claw. They also have wine and some cocktail options so something for everyone. So go getchu some plants then go have a beer and relax by the fire. (Or wherever you choose; that's just my favorite.)

If you have a question about what food might pair well with what beer, they are there for you with solid recommendations. Clearly, they have been trained through this process and educated as food and beverage choices. We were there with another couple and ultimately ordered three different appetizers. We were received fried steaks, cheese, curds, and fried green tomatoes topped with homemade pimento cheese and crab meat. Every one of these was absolutely delicious, enjoyed in the back of the business where the bar is located and the ambience is just bright enough to allow you to enjoy everything. For dinner I received the recommendation of the burger of the week, the Monte Cristo. Imaginary burger with French toast as a bun, a perfectly cooked burger, an amazing piece of ham, some wonderful Swiss cheese and topped with a dusting of powdered sugar and drizzled and homemade maple syrup. It came with sides of a raspberry compote and sour cream. It might not sound delicious, but I have to tell you every bite was a taste treat many many layers of deliciousness. All in all I would have to give this restaurant an extra extraordinary rating and tell you to give it a try if you haven't you will not be disappointed.

First time stopping in to JAFB…read more I am impressed! One bartender serving everyone - and the dude was fast. No time wasted. It's large, several tables - we were able to play some card games while we drank. A nice spot, clearly?l, to come with friends. The important part - their beers were all solid. I have had a couple of their beers in the past, but at Land Grant's Oktoberfest my friend kept bringing me their Cold IPA (I was pouring for Sierra Nevada) - my girlfriend - who grew up in Wooster - ended up pouring JAFB. I believe the brewer Josh was at Oktoberfest, too! Plain and simple? It's a good damn brewery. I look forward to coming back in the future.

It certainly isn't the breweries themselves here but more of the locale. And I am trying to say that with as much diplomacy as I can. One of the latest breweries I tried from The Buckeye State was JAFB Wooster Brewery. Steve and I had the Vienna Lager called the 90 Foot To Vienna. I do like lagers and this type is fairly high on my list on fondness for lager types. Flavors to detect and have fun with here are biscuity, grainy, malty, some honey can be noticed and a clean aftertaste. All in all a very pleasant lager to have as the temps crank up outside for the summer.
