    I had originally visited the Walkerville Brewery in 2009 and it has changed tremendously in 15 years. Brewery/Tap Room is quite large and inviting. I arrived around 4:30 on a Sunday and ordered a Geronimo IPA which was very tasty. Very fair price wise too ($6.50). There is a small snack bar open too. They sell single cans and six packs too which are very reasonable price wise. Definitely a worthwhile visit for a quality beer. I'd return.

    We came in to have a little beer. I ordered the water front with, which is a wheat beer in a can. My dining companions ordered a red ale and honest lager. Those were both on tap. The wheat beer was a little lighter than I normally drink, but was good. My sister said she really liked the red ale, it was easy to drink. The honest lager was very easy to drink. We came here for a bite to eat, but no food was being served. Service was good, there was not a lot of explanation of the beers. It was in a reasonably safe location.

    Good solid beer menu at the prices. Came here on a Wednesday and there was no food. But the beer was pretty darn good!

    Cozy, Little brew pub. The ambience is like being in a functioning brewery, which it is! But the beer was excellent, and they have some great specials. It is not a tourist place. Food opportunities are minimal here... But it's worth a stop nonetheless

    Really cool spot in Windsor to visit if you love to try local breweries. They have a really great selection of beers and ciders for everyone to enjoy. There's not much to see inside as they weren't offering any tours and the dine-in area is shut down. Still cool to walk inside and get a peek thought. Just enjoy responsibly.

    My boyfriend and I came down to Windsor this weekend because we had a few events, and decided to do a couple brewery tours around Windsor, since he's not from here and I am. This was first on our list, for several reasons, especially the history surrounding Walkerville, and Windsor at the time. Our tour guide was Christina, and she brought us on a tasting tour of the beers that they had available now. I'm not a beer drinker myself, but I came for my boyfriend. I sampled them, gave them a try, but I was here for the rich culture and history Walkerville has to offer. She took us around the plant and gave us a history lesson on Hiram Walker himself, where he started and how he gave Windsor a name for rum running and bringing the mob boss Al Capone himself, into our city, and how way back when during the early 20th century and during prohibition, Walkerville was a town, not attached to Windsor, that stood out. We were taken along to the old barrels they had from Hiram Walker's that the acquired to make their dark lager, and that actually sounds delicious, having it ferment and waiting for a year or 6 months to create that perfect, local beer. My boyfriend enjoyed the tour, the history and the beer, we ended up getting a Windsor Stubby to take home with us, for him to drink and for us to display my proud Windsor heritage! Thank you for tour and the tastes of your delicious beers and lagers.

    Here is what they have on tap.

    The milk stout is delicious. $5 glass souvenirs. Tours are on Saturdays only. They start serving beer flights next week (today is 6/8/15). And the play awesome 90's rock. Oh and the bartender was very friendly. Peep the photo for the menu.

    Beer tasting plate thing.  They write down which beers are which for you.  Nice touch

    Cool place! So this is a brewery which has a small bar and seating area for you to try out some beers. The prices and selections are great. There was 5 different selections when I went and I got a sort of tasting plate when I went. It was four 5oz glasses with a different beer in each that only cost $7.50, which I think is a good price to try out a few beers. Usually that type of thing. Is at least $10 at most other places. You can by cases and stubbys and what not also. Our bartender was very friendly and took the time to explain to us how it all worked. I think the only reason I give it 4 stars is because there are some brewers in Windsor that I feel have better beer, but I guess that is all subjective depending on a person's taste. The beer was still pretty great here, I just found some of the texture a little strange with some of them. Great place!

    Omg what a fun place! Ok so I'm not much of a beer person but this place changed my mind! We met Maddy and Lori and just loved them. They taught me more about beer in the short time we were there that I have learned my whole drinkin years of life. We didn't do the tour because I was just loving tasting all the beers. And, did not want to miss one! My favorite was definitely the cider but, would drink every one of them all over again. These ladies really know their stuff. A definite place you must go! Everyone there is like one big family. We had the coolest experience with this gentleman who walked in with frog legs, shrimp, and the best kielbasa I have ever had! We would have stayed longer if we could have. We look forward to coming back in March!!!!

    Lil Nicky is top shelf. If you're not sampling you're doing it wrong. Staff makes this establishment, shout-out to Jaden!

    Enjoyed the service at the bar. Nice happy hour and food specials. Very good pizza. Charcuterie was…read moregood too. It's dark inside but they have an outdoor area with corn hole. Overall, the place is dingy. A deep cleaning would help.

    so i live across from atwater, and as a beer aficionado, i was more than excited to have one of my…read morefavorite breweries across the street from me. however, and for whatever reason, since i've lived across from them, my visits while being their neighbor have been very bizarre and discomforting i typically go in by myself and when i tell you the looks and stares i get from staff as if i have no reason being there. hilariously enough, they have the most updated version of the pride flag sadly hanging incognito in their space, but apparently when a nonbinary queer like me walks through, there's not warmness or welcoming energy from most bodies. typically i get served by the extremely obnoxious and loud employee - i get heavy boston energy from him, but he could easily be from bloomfield hills - every time i come in while and he's working, i just want to turn right around (and i have!). i've stayed away for a minute because of this dude. so, today i thought i'd try to give them one more chance, perhaps i wasn't reading the room correctly - nope. same distant, "why are you here" type of energy. no warmth, no friendliness. whoever the person with the green shirt & tan hat working the evening on 7/02 was just pathetically absent and unaware of how to take care of their customers. i sat at the bar in front and not one time was i checked on until the sweet Nina came and attended to me after she could see my body language. meanwhile, green shirt and tan hat ignored me the entire time i patron-ed, ignore me when i had to yell at him three times cos he acted like he couldn't hear me & i wanted to make sure someone wasn't sitting in the seat i was going to take, and felt that it was appropriate to bring his tray of silverware to come polish them directly next to me. mind you, he was chatting up the coupled-patrons to his left (i was to his right), even immediately tending to them earlier when they sat at that bar as they arrived (there's a line in the middle of the bar where you typically order drinks). at this point, it's a "no dawg for me" with atwater. i've given them chances, i've tried to recognize that they might be stressed, but to feel that i'm not welcome perhaps cos of the fact that i'm a very visible queer person of color is absolutely unacceptable. thankfully the beer is mid level and not worth going back for - griffin claw & full measure are much more welcoming places
