    Poludnitsa
    Steve A.

    Checked out another one of the many breweries in Burlington. It happens to be attached to a pizza place. Queen City is good even for just the beer though. Lively atmosphere without being noisy and way crowded. The bar area isn't that big, but there's enough room for a group. A lot of people who come here know about it because of the pizza place that shares the same building. In fact, you can order a pizza from there at the bar and they'll bring it. They're actually another business, so this will just focus on the beers though. It's about $7 a pint. The beer menu has a variety on tap. Best one we had was the Poludnitsa, a Czech Pilsner. Great taste and it wasn't filling. It's light at 5% ABV. This has a bright spicy hop finish. Lots of ales and lagers to choose. These of course go good with a pizza. Get some beers. It has a ton to choose from. There's also the pizza place if wanting to eat something.

    Cheers!

    Queen City is fairly unique because they brew a lot of beer styles that most other area breweries do not. The focus here is on European Styles. My very favorite is their Yorkshire Porter. My husband is always thrilled to have an ESB or the Raushbier. The bartenders are well informed about their products and the decor is appealing.

    Stopped into Queen City on our brewery tour. It's directly across the street from Zero Gravity. Nice cozy tap room. Friendly bartenders and clientele. Very different tap list from other breweries who are heavy into IPA's. So, I was delighted to enjoy their Schwarzbier which was very good. My sister got a flight, of course. She especially liked the Gregarious (a Scotch Ale) and the Steinbier. Would not hesitate to return.

    Ended our brewery hop at Queen City Brewery on Sunday evening. Focused on old world styles, they have a huge selection and truly care about the beer they serve up. Quality: Loved the massive selection of old world beer at Queen City Brewery. We made our way through Flights of Munich Dunkel, Rauchbier, Jazz From Hell, and Barge Canal, as well as Mailbock, Steinbier, Psycho Keller, and Monk of Underhill. While it is tough to pick favorites, as the quality and consistency were excellent, I think the Rauchbier and the Munich Dunkel were ones I would quickly order again. Quantity: Pours in the Flights were a bit small. Value: $10 for Flights. $7 for Draughts. Ambiance: Queen City Brewery sits towards the back of an industrial building, which has a large private space and a pizzeria in front. The brewery itself is build around a square bar in the center, with just a few tables to the sides. Almost everyone chose a seat at the bar, and there was a lot of banter. In the background some 90s and early 2000 jams played, a few folks were singing along. Crowd: A small, but rowdy crowd. Lots of friendly regulars. Service: Wonderful and kind bartender, love that the next door pizza spot also brought in a pie no one picked up. Parking: Shared parking area.

    I'm not usually a big fan of German beers but I still enjoyed our stop at Queen City Brewery while visiting the area. My boyfriend and I got a flight to share and the bartender was really friendly. It's a casual, fun place to hang out and have a couple beers. We weren't hungry but I think they have some snacks and pretzels. I thought the vintage car above the bar was really cool, but other than that, the atmosphere is a little sterile. Overall it was a pleasant stop and easy to hit up before or after checking out Zero Gravity across the street. I personally prefer Zero Gravity. If you like German beers, definitely check out Queen City Brewery.

    Hubby liked all the beers, if your looking for IPA's not the place for you, looking for largers and Ales this is your place!! No food but you can pizza from the pizza place in front. They also have cans and growlers available. They also have a great root beer for the DD like me

    Spent our last day visiting Burlington at Queen City Brewery. The beer was excellent, the service was great. We also had the added bonus of talking to the owners in the new Biergarten. I highly recommend a visit if you want to relax and enjoy a great beer... or two, or

    Boy was this place fun! The space is well organized with great parking in a walkable part of town. The bartenders were awesome and the beer was good. I also ordered the root beer which was so multidimensional that it made all the beer flavors flat. Also got to try the quetzel which was a sourdough pretzel made for the place. While it would be great marketing to serve with a mustard or beer cheese made from one of their beers, the sourdough was a nice texture and went great with regular mustard. Filled a brought in growler though the potholes of Burlington did not take kindly to it.

    Cool brewery! You can get a flight of 4 beers for $4. You can get a souvenir cup and flight of 4 beers for $6. Complimentary pretzels, and chips for $1 Great beer and knowledgeable staff. Shirts and other merchandise for sale. A little hard to find, you park in the very back.

    You can't tell me this doesn't look refreshing af

    A very chill environment. Unlike some of the neighboring breweries, this one was busy, but not to the point where you're talking over each other trying to grab a drink. Everyone here was relaxed and ready to have a great time. We didn't stay very long, but Queen City made quite the impression on me. It was also pretty cool to watch two employees drop some serious beer knowledge about their brews to a curious customer. I will say that this brewery might not have all the glitz and glamour (huge selection or tons of food options) that some of the other breweries have, but if you want something calmer and just a place to enjoy a drink or two, this is your spot!

    Queen City is a little bit more modest and laid back than some other Burlington breweries, but that doesn't make it any worse. I really liked it. The decor is creative and funky. I really liked the German Bier trays and the old pick up truck. They have a nice bar, as well as some outside seating. The beers run the spectrum, and each one is pretty bold in flavor. They seem to have every one of the standard kinds. The bartenders were very helpful. When I asked for a glass of water, they even gave me Brita-filtered instead of just straight from the tap.

    If you like pretzels, you will love their q shaped pretzels better known as Quetzels !

    This was our first visit to the Farmhouse. It was an exceptional dining experience. Though the main…read moreroom was large and seemed loud at first, it quickly become an enjoyable night out. This was mainly due to the great service and delicious meals ordered by each of us in our family of three. Our table was never left waiting and the food was served hot. Our meal choices were varied, including apps such as steak tartar and cheddar ale soup for one and the meatloaf plate and the turkey burger for the others. Everything was made with original flavor additions such as homemade sauces, fresh breads, and unique use of herbs and spices. Lastly, I was told to mention that the hand cut fries were exceptional. Since we visit Burlington often, we look forward to returning to the Farmhouse to try other dishes on their menu or just ordering the same meals since they were so good. We all agreed that this restaurant has definately moved to the top of the list for our next trip to Vt.

    Good meal first night in Vermont. We both got a salad. I got the BBQ burger & she got a salmon…read moredish. Both were very good. Phillip was our server. He did a great job. Filled our water on a very hot day.
