Checked out this charming small brewery in Elizabeth. Highway 20 is one of the few cool places…read morearound here. It happens to be located inside an old church repurposed for something more useful. Friendly and knowledgeable. There's a surprisingly large variety of choices on tap. Bad thing is the limited hours. It's small so there's not tons to choose from but they still have quite a lot. That means everything is expertly crafted and whatever you get is great stuff. A choice of flights if wanting to try a few. It's about $6 a pint. Best one we had was the Oh Danny Boy. This is an Irish Red ale with caramel and toasted malt notes. Also great IPAs and other classics. There's often something coming out each season. For sure if coming this way get some beers. It's got a few snacks but you can bring stuff in. They're closed from Mondays to Wednesdays.

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.

I had heard great things about this place for over five years now, and I was not disappointed! We came early Saturday afternoon so it was not too busy.

Obviously assembled by someone who appreciates food. The cucumber slices were just the right thickness - and an ample amount. The slaw, the pork, the cilantro, the sauce, the bun - it all came together for a delicious experience. And the onion rings were lightly battered with thick onions - superb. I didn't take a pic - but Rick enjoyed his brisket. Other customers were raving about the ribs the day we were there. We each had a Mud Run beer and pleasant conversation with the staff. I am seriously planning an extra trip to visit Mom just so I can stop to have a Mud Run lunch on the way.

My wife and I went here ordered brisket sandwich and chicken tacos. Brisket was good, but the…read morechicken in the tacos was all dark meat, wife asked if it was pulled shredded chicken, Shea said yes. It was not so we hadn't eaten all day so she ate the fries and basically I tortilla with some of the vegis'. We said we'd pay for a taco and the fries, they couldn't do that , they'd probably comp the meal well waited 10 minutes to find out if that was gonna happen. No dice, they just ignored us, and some other girl came to the register saying the manager left, and I see the original server dip in to the bathroom. Sooo I just paid the bill and left 18% i know stupid me. Not going not recommending this place apparently money is the bottom. Line, these servers are something else.​

We both shared a couple of flights of their beer and were not disappointed. All of their craft beers were tasty. My boyfriend liked one of their craft beers so much, that he bought a crowler of it to take home. I bought one of their tin tackers, a magnet with their logo, and two handcrafted wooden coasters. The atmosphere inside of the brewery was unique and fun. Everyone inside appeared to be enjoying themselves. Overall, a Great Experience!! And I can't wait to return!!

First time at the Twin Span Brewing…read more I first noticed the nice assortment of brews. Such a great list! I knew I was in the right place! I first enjoyed the Summer Cat beer! Wow! So tasty and refreshing for a hot summer night. It went down quick! Next up, the Hefeweizen. So crisp and smooth! I needed some food to go with my beers, so we ordered the giant soft pretzel with dipping sauces. This pretzel is huge and makes for the perfect appetizer. For the main course, I enjoyed the flavorful fish tacos. Very filling and delicious! Nice place in Bettendorf, Iowa!

I have been known to make the hour long drive for a couple beers here then head home.

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!
