    I had the vegetarian chipotle brat that was really good. Nice to see that things are labeled vegetarian on the menu. They also have a suggested beer for every brat. Seating outside is very nice, they have gas fire places and allow dogs. There is also wearing inside and upstairs. Our waiter was a bit of a downer that's why I'm only giving 4 stars.

    The brats were fantastic, as was the curry ketchup. The server while nice, failed to come back and refill our drinks the entire time we were there. Luckily we had thought ahead and asked for both a soda and a glass of water. When we ordered, we were told that the menu had changed and had not been updated, so no cheese sticks and then when we ordered the fried pickles, the menu claimed spears, we got pickle slices and were pretty over done. The atmosphere is good, decor is good.

    Knowledgeable beer and bratwurst/sausage dog pairings, great service, live music upstairs and a whole lot of friendly atmosphere packed into a narrow 2 story corner space with a great courtyard enhanced with coffee-table fireplaces w wrought-iron chairs, lush greenery and a zillion dazzling twinkle lights in the evenings that make this brew house an even better experience than just settling in for a dog & beer could ever hope to've been. It was highly recommended and we loved it!

    Great vegetarian brats for those looking for a vegeterian option.

  • 5/5 John Paul M. 4 years ago on Google
    Epic selection of imported beers and brats, there's also a reward system for drinking there so you actually have a goal in mind when drinking.

    Great food, but lunch service (especially sitting on the patio) is consistently glacial. Sat for 10 minutes without seeing a single server and finally had to leave before ordering because I didn't have 90 minutes for my lunch break. Too bad, cause I was really looking forward to their steak fries. Update: not sure what changed, but service quality was night and day. Super prompt, excellent overall experience.

    Update: there a fair amount of turn over here. Service has been so-so the last couple of times we've come. The fries are good and they'll serve each of their draft beers on tap in the proper stemware. Upstairs has a number of TVs. Some stuff on the menu us hit or miss, but avoid the currywurst. Besides that though it's pretty good.

    Great food and beer selection. About 20+ brats, great flavor brats light but durable bun, fries with a variety of dipping sauces. Only disappointment was the pretzel. Not hot or even warmish, a bit dense for my preference and flavor so so. Rest of our food was so good I didn't dock a star for that.

    Great place to stop by and drink a beer. They have some good ones. The place is nice located, where Paseo Nuevo Mall is on State Street. Nice to sit outside under the umbrellas and drink a beer. Highly recommended!
