I actually visited this place last January. When I was there on a weekday night, the place was pretty dead. The beers were good though, and the staff was friendly. Certainly worth visiting if you’re in the neighborhood.

Visited for lunch on a Sunday in February as part of WinTour 3. They were cleaned out of two of the five beers on the menu and the food menu was a bit sparse, but the service was friendly, the food was good, the beers were good and the atmosphere was pretty neat too. Side note: they told us where to go to check out their "competetors." I love small town brewpub culture.

I love this place! The beer menu is kind of scant but their Imperium double IPA was amazing. The food was also great. Our service was wonderful. The set up of the place is as if they’re trying to be more up scale or modern yet it is open and relaxing. The music was not too loud and was right for the environment. If you’re in the area you should definitely pay this place a visit.

FIRST VISIT: Slightly hard to find as it is just off the main drag, and Wausau’s downtown has quite a few one-way streets: nice, clean, minimal interior with a small, well-kept patio seating area outside: food menu isn’t particularly extensive but is certainly delicious and offers a variety of choices that are far superior to basic pub fare: beer menu isn’t extensive either, but what’s there is interesting. I had a great time at the Red Eye Brewpub, and would definitely recommend it to anyone who’s in the area. My Cowboy panini was dynamite, and the wood-fired pizzas looked great. They sell samplers that are about twice the size of a normal sampler glass for $1.50 apiece, which I thought to be an excellent deal, and growler fills were $9. The beers ranged from slightly above average to great, and the brewmaster seems to be very interested in taking risks and keeping a rotating selection. Actually, I’m quite surprised to see that this place hasn’t made it on the list here yet as there was a sizable crowd there for a Friday at 2:00pm, but I guess they did just win the best undiscovered spot award from the local paper.
