    Wonderful experience, tour and beer. Brianna was our guide and was patient, informative, and quite humorous. Such an enjoyable time, we hope to bring friends next time! <3

    Took a Sunday afternoon drive to Leinie Lodge in March. Have been there in the summer and fall. Was not particularly crowded....had a couple of flights.Did enjoy tasting the varieties. Service however was very slow for the flights and getting a pretzel....guess hard to find help? Of course bought some merchandise. Good outing especially for someone who might be visiting the area.

    This place was neat! Tour guide Megan was friendly and informative. Carrie at the bar might really be the highlight of our time at the Leinie Lodge! She was funny and knowledgeable. Get some beer, pretzels and grab a couple crowlers to take home. We had an awesome time so thank you for a great stop on our road trip through Wisconsin!

    Stopped in for a tour on Saturday night, had a blast. It was great to learn the history and walk through the buildings. The tasters were also delicious, pink lemonade is my favorite. I will be making it at home for sure. A nice way to spend a few hours with family or friends.

    Super fun, laid back environment. Usually an older crowd 25 yrs old+. Flights are 2 for 25$ or 1 for 15$. Recommend trying the mixology beers.

    Classic landmark for the area. They have done a wonderful job bringing in the tap room and outdoor space. The tours are well done and professional. Still a family owned business which is awesome these days. A must stop for locals and visitors.

    What a wonderful place to visit. We accidentally stopped in during happy hour and got two flights for the price of one. It was also snowing lightly which made the view through the windows look like a winter wonderland. Highly recommend stopping here!

    The tour is a great value. They go through the entire brewing process with a small group of people which is the right size for any questions to get answered.

    We had a wonderful time at the Leinie Lodge! The lodge itself is huge with plenty of seating. Beers were actually pretty cheap and fantastic. We especially enjoyed their German style beers. I had expected mostly shandies, but didn’t realize they have more than that to choose from. We also loved that they are dog friendly outside. Service was quick and friendly.

    Nice clothing, tap tasting and brewery tour options. Even Beer Soap to keep you smelling clean.

    Excellent stop and their beer is great as always - plus Chippewa River real close. Dogs are allowed on back patio. Bartenders super nice happy hour 4-6 half price beers

    This place was packed on a late September Saturday. Some people, like us, were there to do a full tour, while others were just enjoying a drink. There were also many high school seniors dressed up to take photographs outside and indoors--this is quite the local landmark. The lodge itself is large, containing an extensive bar, sitting area, merchandise shop, and patio. A short walk across the bridge is the actual brewery. Our tour guide was great. We were never bored on the hour-plus tour as we learned about Leinenkugel family history, local history and the evolution of the brewery, and the science of beer making. The tour was family friendly, as there were several kids along. The adult tour price includes tickets for flight-sized beers back at the lodge, which can be redeemed before or after the tour. I'm not a big beer fan, but I really enjoyed myself here.

    A fun place to hang with friends and drink new leinie flavors. Interesting decor, indoor and outdoor seating, stunning river views. Food options are limited but there is often a food truck outside with more choices. The staff is friendly and helpful. The flavors options seemingly endless. Dogs and children welcome. If I had a complaint, I would say the parking lot is small, the bathrooms were smaller (it's a brewery, people are gonna have to pee). There were lines for both men and women's rooms. Lastly that there was little to no wasp control. Enough wasps that we and others ended up playing musical chairs trying to avoid them and there was one small child who was stung while we were there.

    This is an awesome brewery tour, make it a stop when you’re passing through Chippewa Falls! Pros: Beer tasting is included, tour takes you everywhere, gift shop is full of cool stuff, the tour guides are great. Cons: Wish you could drink your beer while actually touring the buildings, but I understand why you can’t. Overall, I would come back and see it again. It was an excellent and memorable experience!

    Great beer and super fast service! Tons of well-designed merch to look at as wel. Plenty of snacks like locally-made caramel corn, pretzels, cheese curds, and meats.

    We took the tour of the distillery. Shelby was funny and knowledgeable which made the tour very informative and enjoyable. The tour does last an hour and it does get a little warm instide the distillery but non the less it was very enjoyable and educational. Ask ?'s you might win a prize. Lol.

    Everyone, from the sweet, grey haired, highly knowledgeable ticket reservationist, to Nana our tour guide(take the brewery tour!), to the barkeepers serving a cold one were all “above and beyond” friendly, helpful, engaging, and courteous! Whatever the Human Resources Departments are doing when training their employees at Leinenkugels, it is working wonderfully…they understand excellent customer service! Strongly recommend, if for no other reason than to be pampered by these good folks…Makes me want to relocate to Chippewa Falls to do this over and over. Like they say, “it’s in the water”.

    I’ve been here twice now, spring 2022 and yesterday. Great experience both times, loved the tour, beer from the tap is really good, the vibe in the lodge is awesome, and lots of good fly fishing nearby.

    Great spot to stop... can tour the brewery of just shop or have a beer and sit either inside or on the patio. Or you can do all three! Beautiful spot along the river. Also has snacks .. popcorn and little hard pretzel braids .. but I recommend the large soft pretzel.. the mustard is amazing Ample seating inside and out. Plenty parking.

    This is a really cool operation, from the standpoint of getting to see some great local history thats still in operation to this day it’s absolutely fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the bar in the lodge, where you could get any beer you wanted including some interesting mixes of two beers to create almost a “snakebite” type drink. The facility is spotless, the staff is friendly, and the it doesn’t hurt that its located in the beautiful town of Chippewa Falls which is always pleasant to visit.
