Looks like a general selection of booze but noticed a couple of nice bottles of bourbon behind the bar. The beer was cold. Waitress noted they were still a couple weeks away from opening the pizza oven but the menu was great. Lots of appetizers, sandwiches, bar type food. Cheeseburger and fries were both done well and good flavor. Date had chicken tenders and noted they were perfectly cooked, nice crust and generous portion. Will definitely eat there again.

This has to be one of the best places to drink craft beer in Iowa. There is alot of great beer in…read morethe area but it is also the owners that makes this place wonderful. I have been known to make the hour long drive for a couple beers here then head home. I think it is the setting of an old barn that makes it unique and a joy to sit, drink, and talk to the owners and patrons.

Oh man, where to start on this place! I came over Memorial Day with some friends for a girls trip…read more We stayed at the Gehlen House Inn which is owned by the same couple as the barn brewery. I can't rate that in Yelp but just know it was a great stay, we met so many cool people staying there too, and you should stay there if you come up to check out the barn. Onto the barn! This place has a rich history and I'm so impressed with the way they've maintained the original charm of the barn and grounds while also renovating with modern conveniences. There was a lot of time and effort put into this place! They have a substantial craft beer list, the top ones for me were the pina colada and the deeamsicle, but my friends had many others they enjoyed too. There are beers for sale to take home, and lots of merch and swag. They serve pizza if you want to nosh on something with your beer. We got a Reuben pizza to split and it was great! The owners and employees were caring, kind, and took time to explain the beers and make sure we were well taken care of. Our group couldn't say enough good things about this place!

This is a fantastic little stop to make when driving the Great River Road. The ambience on the…read moreoutdoor patio is serene and peaceful; watching the traffic on the river literally feet away was an awesome experience. The bartender behind the bar was very helpful and welcoming--far better than this brewery's sister property in Dyersville. I strongly recommend the beers as seen on my flight card--all were very tasty, yet had distinct flavor profiles. Do yourself a favor and get a scoop of the flavored peanuts they have behind the bar--they serve as a nice compliment to your beer.

Amazing place, and yes, it is dog friendly!…read more I did send a message to them about the dog. They quickly make me feel comfortable by allowing me to come in with a dog to order beers and food before going outside. I was by myself with a dog. I was so relieved because some ace would not allow. It was difficult for me when I was alone. The bartenders did the excellent job too! Their beers are amazing. I love their Rhubarb Dew and Rural Route Stout. I do enjoy their pretzel. I saw the menu of pretzel. That's the sign that I would love to come back for another visit when I am back in town to visit my family.

Great bar that you can try all kinds of brews! They have several kinds available for purchase to take home too. Rob,the bartender, was absolutely hilarious! He made the experience that much better. He was our best brew-coneseuir. He introduced us to Drekker brews and we ended up buying some to bring home! Place is cozy and has a warm feeling. Very clean and truly a must stop if you're in the area. This was our last stop for the day and I wish we'd have stopped sooner, because we wouldn't have went anywhere else!

As the name says, it does look like a saloon. A terrific job was done to give it that appearance. There are booths to sit at with a T.V. at each one. I like this. I ordered the fish and it tasted great!!! So were the fries and coleslaw. The burgers were juicy full of flavor. Not dry. The beer prices are affordable. You can even go outside to eat and drink. A pool table and dart board are also provided for your fun. After my experience last night. I think I'll have to visit Charlotte more often. With this place in mind.
