Pretty much the only brew pub in the area. Limited menu, decent microbrews but nothing to scream about. Could be a great place if they had some competition to drive them there. Upstairs bar is cool and less crowded.

Small brewpub in downtown Aiken, SC. Always have a variety of brews on tap and quality food at a fair price. My favorite order is the Powder House Porter and a "Big Tony".

Downtown Aiken about 20 minutes from Augusta. Dine inside or out. Pub type food, wings/burgers po boys etc or salads. Seven beers on tap for this visit, will review later. Atmosphere nice and laid back, fantastic service and decent food and beer.

Nice ambiance, set in the quaint downtown of Aiken SC. Tried 6 beers--the Nut Brown Ale was Very good. Kitchen had closed, so I can’t speak for the food. Service was very good. I would definitely go here again.

A must stop. Wide variety of beers to choose from all very good. Food was good. A little off the beaten path but a must stop if you are within 50 miles. Finding parking was a little difficult. There was a short wait but you can get a beer and go outside and wait on the side walk. Very friendly staff.

Surprising little gem. Comfortable, cozy and oozing locals charm. Way buzzier and livelier than I could ever have expected from such a sleepy town. Refreshing to see that the most hoppin bar in this equestrian community happens to brew their own. Nice, and food is home cookin too.

Pretty civilized. Good service, good beer, good food. Raucous bar filled with happy locals. I have to say, this was well worth the stop and I’m sure I’ll find my way back.

Aiken Brewing Company was a very pleasant lunch stop. The downtown area in which it’s located is clean and well organized with an appealing historic quality. The service we received was friendly and prompt. All of the food was reasonably priced and I had some difficulty choosing due to a few very appealing selections. I ended up eating a lamb gyro and trying the beer sampler. I’d like to make this a regular stop as my experience was good and according to their website, they change their selection rather frequently. However, it is quite out of the way for me. I’d definitely recommend this for any beer enthusiast in the area.

Sat out on the sidewalk patio, very nice old and small downtown atmosphere. Service kind of slow, as waiter got overwhelmed with everyone wanting to sit outside on such a nice evening. Food good, beer selection probably best in Aiken, but not great. They had 8 brews - a belgian wit that tasted a lot like Blue Moon, two stouts that tasted similar (except one had maple and coconut added!), a nut brown, a cream ale, an EIPA, an APA, and an amber. Only went inside to go to the restroom; looked nice - typical renovated downtown brewpub with dark wood interior, two levels I believe.

Small brewpub but in a very attractive area. Quick service. Food selection many appetizers, salad and sandwiches but everything we had was very good. Given this is the only brewpub in the entire Augusta Georgia area, they don’t rest on their laurels. Great food and beer.
