Dark brewpub with large booths and a half dozen house brews on tap. Our server was kind enough to make us a sampler of the beers, which were a tad sub-par. The menu looked good but I was stuffed from the last place so I passed on food. Plenty of TVs hung over the bar and I saw the Cards oust my Phillies from the playoffs. A handful of jovial Brewers fans were celebrating the Cards win and were confident they were going to the world series, though Pujols and Freese would have none of that (yeah!).

Some pretty good German beers here. The atmosphere is pretty boring and the place was completely empty when we visited but I’ll stop by again if I’m in Minneapolis.

Long narrow restaurant with a large bar in the middle. Pub fare is well above average. They make a wide variety of German style beers, serving six or so at a time. I had an alt, Vienna lager, and smoked doppelbock on my last visit - all were tasty and well made. I have had almost all of their beers at one time or another on previous visits - the keller, doppel, alt, and gose are exceptional. If you are looking for an IPA or a stout - you won’t find them here.

The Dunkel Wiess was without a doubt the worst beer that I have ever had. The service was good with one exception; when I order a beer I expect a pint not a 22 ounce glass. I will never go back and wonder how they stay in business.

Fun gathering spot if you are going to play bags or shuffle puck. The beer is terrible as all of their offerings have a quality to them that makes me think something is off in their brewing technique. I have tried all their beers multiple times and I just find them awful. The food is pretty decent, especially the sliders. Good location to jump over to other bars with good beer offerings.

This is a very non-descript, fairly typical brewpub. The beers are all very similar and the food is pretty standard. There’s nothing wrong with the place, but it’s certainly not a place to go out of your way to try.

This place has awful acoustics. It was hard to speak to my wife, who was literally across the table from me. It didn’t help that there was a pretty obnoxious group sitting two tables away from us. I was hoping to get the Gose, which they had advertised on the website. Unfortunately, it won’t be available until fall. My wife order the light beer, which was full of diecytal. The hefeweizen was okay. Still not sold on this place, even though many people say it’s improving.

Visited on 05/31/2009. Happened to get here during happy hour which is a 2 for 1 pint special. No sampler available here, but the bartender gave me a few samples of the beers that I did not have by the pint. They also have appetizer specials during happy hour of which the quesidillas were great. Friendly staff, and also conveniently located near Moto-i for your sake fix.

Beer is marginal to decent - nothing spectacular. The food seems to be fairly standard bar fare. Atmosphere is a typical bar. Basically, this place doesn’t suck, but it doesn’t stand out either.

Been here a few times now. Looks like a regular burger restaurant with some fermentors, not impressive. Have not had fast service when I have visited. The food is average-above average pub fair. The beer is very good though. Always a few different styles, all German and all done well. Lots of character to them and not cheap bland Germans. A place that makes a Gose and a Berliner Weisee while totting one of the best Keller beers I have tried is damn good in my book.
