We went last night, Friday night, to get a beer and wind down from the work week. As we were walking in the music was loud and obnoxious, either grunge or acid rock, I don't know, but I made the comment that maybe it's not as bad inside. I was wrong, it was loud and obnoxious music. We decided to try the peanut butter porter which was very tasty and smooth. We sat down to drink it but the music was so irritating we drank it fast because we could not relax. We chose not to eat or buy another beer. We would have opted to go outside but again, it was even louder. My suggestion to management, please play music that doesn't overpower talking, isn't blasted outside, and maybe add some large TVs for sports. You missed a huge opportunity to show the FIFA games. Overall I love their beer, but not enough to put up with the terrible music. Do better. Beer is 5 stars Ambiance is 2 stars

When you first walk in, the place feels cozy and inviting as if you were inside a cabin with all the wood accents including picnic tables and high tops. There's also an area for kids with video games. If you need food, you can place an order from the business next door at the bar. They have pizzas, cheesesteaks and hot dogs. There was a workshop happening that evening about bat conservation, it was interesting. I later learned that they host different community workshops once a month. They also host different events, like a running club, yoga and trivia nights.

We stopped in for a beer during the annual Krampus verse St. Nick Heavy Metal Wrestling Battle in…read moredowntown Sanford; yes, this really happened. I knew that Hollerbach's had a brewhouse where you can purchase everything you need to become a home brewer but I had no idea that they opened up this little taproom inside. They offer a variety of beers - Golden Lager, German Fest Beer, Irish Red Ale, Hazy IPA, Cran-Apple Sour, Double IPA, Belgian Tripel Ale, Belgian Strong Ale, and a Nitro Imperial Stout. They were also carrying several other local breweries brews, and they offer flights if you want to sample a little of everything. Pricing is on par with most other breweries in the area and you can even purchase smaller samples $3.50-$5.00 depending on the brew. I ordered the Krampus Belgian Strong IPA ($7.50) in spirit of the event going on and the guy at the counter gave me two cups half full. I asked him if he did that because of the foam and he said it was because they are 8oz servings due to the ABV percent is high. I understand that but why are you giving me two? He didn't say anything and said that would be $16.05, WTH?? Nancy was not happy with is nonchalant character all but I said, you know what I'll probably drink both anyways so no big deal, but honestly that is not an acceptable business practice and they guy just basically ignored our dissatisfaction at the situation. I admit that the beer was delicious but the employee's ownership of his mistake or ignorance to what just happened was a big turn-off. Great job on making this delicious brew but good luck keeping customers coming back with this guy running the tap and register.

The person who served us was really nice and had us sample as much as we liked until we found the taste we wanted. I forgot what it was called - but we got the Lager and IPA. Place is clean as I saw another employee actually hand dry the beer glasses and bring it to light to make sure there was no lip stains or suds from the washer. I'm excited for the future of this place.

Ok this is for food only - not the beers. The food was terrible, yet they market their menu as an…read moreupscale pub food kind of dining. We each got burgers, and 2 appetizers, the pretzel and the kettle chips with blue cheese and balsamic reduction. The balsamic reduction was not a reduction - it was practically straight balsamic vinegar that pooled on the bottom and soaked the chips. Couldn't eat them. The mustard with the pretzel was great though. The burgers were a mess, and were not even patties - just chunks of ground beef held together with cheese. And it didn't taste like a burger. It was simply awful. We each took a bite then walked out. Fortunately you pay and order at the bar before you even sat down so we could just get out of there. The hose made kettle chips they advertise with Wop's seasoning - we literally saw the cook open a large bag of store bought chips and sprinkle pepper on them. We went somewhere else to eat after this. We're really own upset that they marketed their food as something it was clearly not. If you're all about the beers this place would probably be good. Just don't order food. Except the pretzel. That was decent.

An area that could be improved on is wine glasses and pours vs price. Surrounding restaurants/bars offer much nicer wine glasses and better pours for the amount charged. The food here though is pretty good, especially the flat breads. Wings are good but nothing special. Overall the food we had was very good and the bartenders were both great. We went two days in a row. The restrooms could use sprucing up. It's the great service we came back for but much better happy hour pricing just around the corner.

I sat at the bar and watched the bartender chat with every single person at the bar in a most genuine and friendly way. The couple next to me actually knew him by name and he also knew them by name... so that's a very important quality for me! I ordered this French dip style sandwich, very generously accompanied with French fries. As I was attending the Film Festival across the street at the Ritz, I wasn't able to drink alcohol, but the drinks looked really good! Ambiance-wise: this is a very fun and open-spaced bar. I sat at the bar but there were picnic tables behind me (indoor). It was lovely and very well lit. When I walked outside, I felt very safe. This is a really great spot to hang out with friends there in Sanford!

Came here on a Tuesday evening, specifically Cinco de Mayo, and it was surprisingly empty. Not sure…read moreif Tuesdays are usually quiet or if everyone in town was off getting tacos and margaritas elsewhere, but honestly it worked out great for us. The atmosphere was really laid back and comfortable. It had that casual downtown brewery vibe without feeling loud or chaotic, which made it easy to actually hang out and talk. Definitely felt more relaxed than some of the packed spots nearby that night. Trevor was the only server/bartender working and he was absolutely hustling the entire time. Even while juggling the whole floor and bar, service stayed friendly and attentive, which we appreciated. They have a really solid selection of house-brewed beers, plus a full bar if cocktails are more your thing. The biggest surprise though was the food. Everything tasted really fresh and homemade instead of typical "brewery food." We started with the Brussels sprout appetizer and it was SO good, super flavorful and a great portion for sharing. The chicken quesadilla was more of a classic/basic quesadilla, but still really tasty and packed with toppings. The fish and chips ended up being the table favorite. The fish was crispy and fresh, the tartar sauce was excellent, and they served it with this red pepper-style sauce that was also amazing. We also ordered loaded fries and loaded tots. Both came covered in beer cheese, bacon, and chives. The tots especially were incredible, they were super thick and potatoey inside while still crispy outside. This ended up being such a pleasant surprise stop for us after skipping a few overly crowded places nearby. Great food, great service, relaxed atmosphere, and by the end of the meal everyone at the table had already said multiple times that we wanted to come back.

He brews beer like some people paint master pieces. The beer here is next level, especially if you appreciate the nuances of craft beer. Sarah was our server the two times I have been here and, what a great person. And she so knows her beer. The first time I was here Travis explained the concept of the 3 foot raven or crow, but upon making this review, the mythology escapes me. Still... whatever they are doing here is working. And... if you love craft beer, this is a must visit. There is beer, mead, wine and mixed drinks. And they have a dedicated food truck with some decent options. The BEER: Papa Midnight coconut Imperial Stout 10.8% ABV... so imagine a mounds or almond joy, but it is a stout. The nose is all toasted coconut. And it is so very great. Da Minted peppermint Imperial Stout 10.8% ABV... so I saved this one for last because I thought it would be sweet, and it is not. Dark chocolate and mint. Very delicious.... The Hop & Haze IPA 5.6% ABV... this a great hazy, white grapefruit, clean flavors and totally crushable She's Not Rude, Just Chai spiced red ale 5.5% ABV... the chai makes this red ale smell sweet and it is anything but that Beauregard's Berry End fruited sour 5.8% ABV... has a sweet jam nose, it is a sour, and it is sour, but those jam notes make it next level... "it's a little earthy and that comes from the mushrooms" To Sir, Wit Love gose 4.7% ABV... Light flavorful, slightly salty, slightly sour, not everyone's palette, but definitely mine Path to Gold golden ale 5% ABV... so very crushable, this is your everyday beer for everyday people She's a Bonnie Lass Irish Red 5.8%... wow, the taste is indescribable, it is red ale with balance A Norse of a Different Color hazy IPA 7% ABV... so high in IBUs, great mouth feel, if you like a piny hoppy IPA, you will be a fan Oolong Time, No See session mead 6% ABV... I am totally in love with this session mead. So graceful, tasteful and unique. I think this is my favorite!!! The Hummingbird Special sweet mead 11.8% ABV... says fermented Florida wild flowers honey, but it has a sweet and nutty almost peanut flavor. It is super sweet and quite tasty. Like a sweet wine. TT hard Cider 6.6% ABV... dry cider, like an an English cider, really liked it I so wish ai lived closer to Twelve Talons. So many great and unique flavors in craft beers, ciders and meads. There is something great going on here. Like and share.
