Go if you like beer. Could have more of a selection. I've been to Breweries in Atlanta, etc. and the selections, are much broader. Also, a bit dark with much updating needed to the premises. More

This is just a brew house nothing pretty. One bar in a warehouse, bring a coat if it's in the winter. You can sample all what they are brew, so its not all to expensive. The Sugar House Casino is right next door, so its a great place to stop before going to the casino. More

There was a great beer selection, probably 10+ drafts. The brewery tour was free and thorough, and they let you drink during the tour. The guide was knowledgeable and funny! The head brewer was there, hanging around and he was very friendly, as were the other patrons. We met so many people who loved talking about beer....perfect! Their menu was... More

This was part of a bar and food crawl that I did with a group of friends, and it was just about everyone's favorite stop. While we waited for the tour to start, we got flights of 4 different kinds of beer for only $5. The tour itself was free, and they supplied you with an endless amount of samples.... More

I visited here on the back end of a business trip when I had some time to kill. Being a beer lover, what a great choice! Get the two flights of sample beers, and you are all set. If you need a bite to eat, there are a few menu items on the board. I didn't try any of the... More

Took a day trip to philly and this was the highlight of my trip. The free tour from 12Pm-3PM with free beer made my day. The beer was excellent, I sampled 4 of their beers. I went on Oyster Day and tried their love stout brewed with oysters for Valentines day. Great beer. Women folk will like their rasberry beer.... More
