This had to be my favorite brewery in toronto. Not only did it have great beers, atmospgere, and…read morestaff, but it even mixed it up with beer cocktails. I wasnt expecting to like it as much as I did but it was perfect with how hot it was outside. The beer was hazy and fruity so it blended well and felt like a frozen coctail which is right down my ally. The atmosphere was great as well. There were plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating along with some comfy couch seating and bar as well. There seemed to be some good boardgames which is always a good touch. The staff was great. They chatted with us for a while, gave some recommendations, and we're fast. They dont do growler fills or else we would have been here all the time. Overall a great spot for drinks.

I've always been a huge fan of Great Lakes Brewery beers, especially Octopus Wants to Fight IPA and…read morePompous Ass English Ale, so I was really happy we finally made it out to the brewery itself to try even more of their lineup. While we were there I tried Rookie Card Pale Ale for the first time and immediately loved it. Same with Patty O' Beer Irish Red Ale; both fantastic additions to the list of GLB beers I enjoy. Service was great too. The bartender even gave us a couple samples before we picked our pint, which is always appreciated when you're deciding between a few options. Overall, a great experience for fans of craft beer and definitely worth stopping by if you enjoy GLB like I do. Only downfall was I found the pints to be pretty pricey.

We came for trivia night so it is possible the experience would be different on an ordinary night…read more The game was fun and the space was open and clean. Foodwise however quite a few of us were let down. The beer menu of course is extensive! We split a pizza and it was super oily and lacking flavor-- the pizza pan was coated in oil at the bottom. Chicken wings were also apparently dissatisfactory, but garlic knots and burger had rave reviews! So, perhaps a better spot for drinks than a meal!

We attempted to try Amsterdam Brewhouse, waited in line for 45 minutes for a covered patio and they tried to seat us in direct sunlight zero shade. Managers were not helpful, particularly JJ.

We arrived during happy hour which included a selection of drinks and snacks.

The menu is limited if you're looking for healthy non meat options, we had the fries (delicious), kale salad with salmon (also delicious but salmon was definitely on the smaller portion for a 37.00 salad), and my partner had the burger (he enjoyed although meat was overcooked). Was a pleasant experience and the aperol and wine was refreshing! Our only complaint is that my salad came out way before his burger and we weren't sharing since I don't eat meat so we basically shared my salad since we were starving then he ate his burger as I waited since it took probably another 10 minutes to arrive.

We are talking three stories and plenty of TVs to watch sports. Our waitress was very friendly, even when we asked many questions because we were visiting and wanted the best experience from the menu. The food was def tasty because we finished all six dishes. Get the pizzas because the thin crust is superb. And Superjus it!

The drink was really good and I enjoyed it immensely but the flamm was just okay. Not a lot of toppings as pictured on the menu haha. There is a bit of a hike to the bathroom but it's manageable. Unfortunately because the windows to the patio was opened, there was a lot of smoke (weed/vaping) and random perfume and cologne scents wafting in. Just beware.

The treatment I received was awesome - cheers! PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance): I was in the area all day for the start of the Toronto International Film Festival, so I simply walked. Otherwise, there were spots along the many main and surrounding streets, some nearby structures, numerous public transportation options, and rideshares - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A cavernous interior with a main bar and stools, plus a ton of places to sit. I never made it outside where apparently there was a beer garden. Minimal natural lighting inside and of course a ton outside while electric ceiling lights filled in both areas. There were several muted TVs inside indie rock music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=59IcCRZFC2TVdN5G8QmwjA ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Mascot Brewery was the best! The beers, food, prices, and service were cracking!

The kombucha was great! Had a few sips of beer which was also pretty good - especially the sour! The dogs here are of course the highlight of this brewery. There were so many dogs here with friendly owners. A lot of them allowed me to pet their dog - a double win!
