Stopped by Akronym Brewing on a recent date night. We ordered two flights of beer, which were served nice and cold. The Kernel of Truth was my favorite beer on the list, followed by Czech 123 Czech 123. We ordered some hummus and some nachos. The nachos were tasty as was the hummus. The service was very good and the atmosphere was most chill. We'll be back for some of that beer.

This place was great! Definitely a hit on the summit brew trail. They had a great selection and their IPA's were fantastic. The inside was set up and organized really well to keep people flowing through. Huge area outside to sit. Highly recommend their tacos... drool worthy.

Finding new Breweries is one of the things I love to do best as you can't go wrong with trying a new places beers with one of your friends! Coming here I wasn't too sure about this one but it turned out to be alright as the beer I had was definitely enjoyable but what happened next definitely wasn't too great as it would take me until the next day to figure out that they had overcharged me by two beers as I only ordered one! So the next day I noticed an additional charge on my statement knowing that I only had one I didn't see how this was possible so a few phone calls later I was able to get ahold of someone who was willing to credit me back the money as I don't live super close to this area so that was definitely a relief that I didn't have to come back. Of the choices of brews I had to go with the High Street Wheat w/ Cherries as it just sounded yummy and it definitely was alright as it was smooth and decent definitely something I'd consider drinking again. Overall this is a mellow little brewery and the whole visit was cool except for finding that overcharge who knows if I'll get here again but I'd be willing to give them another shot sometime in the future if soo I'll update until then cheers and beers my friends!

Original plan was to go to Barley House to watch the CFB Championship Game but apparently they're closed on Mondays now. Therefore we found ourselves at this brewery right up the road since as we drove by we saw the game on at the bar. Quite spacious and plenty of seating, although there were only 2 other people there last night, so seating wasn't an issue anyway. We ordered our pints, which come in 17oz instead of 16oz, which was interesting. Regardless, they had about 12-15 different choices and styles to choose from. My friend and I ended up getting 3 pints each during the evening and all of them were pretty good. None of the 3 I had tried were anything spectacular but all very tasty and had no problem finishing. I definitely plan on going back to try more of their selections when I don't have to drive. There was a kids section for well, kids to play, as well as a bunch of adult sized games to play like connect four. The only downfall when we went was that they didn't have food and no sound for the game.

Akronym is a really good brewery in Akron. It might be as good as Thirsty Dog. That's high praise. It has a pretty nice building. There aren't as many beers but there's still a large variety. It's located in the middle of downtown Akron. It's pretty easy to find. This is just hard to get to. It doesn't have a private parking lot. There is a garage right next to it that charges an hourly rate. I had the Exchange Street Hefeweizen. It's about $6 for a pint. This is kind of hoppy but it's drinkable though. Comparing this to Thirsty Dog, it's pretty good. It doesn't have quite as many beers. They still have a lot and I liked most of these.

Akronym Brewery is a pretty cool place. We love craft beer and craft breweries. They have a little food menu and may still allow you to bring food or have food delivered, but not sure on that. They used to let you bring food or get it delivered but now that was before they had their own food. They do events through out the year and this year had a chili cook off that was a lot of fun. They are right across from a great restaurant called Crave, so we like to eat there and then walk over to Akronym for a drink or two. They have a good selection of beers from light to dark, so most everyone that doesn't only drink Budweiser or Miller can find something. The staff are also very attentive and pretty laid back as well.

This is the second worst beer I've ever had in my entire life. The first is Natty Light. Did we order a Pilsner and a Hefeweizen or two badly brewed IPAs? Can't even tell. Same color, same over hopped taste. These shouldn't be allowed to have European styles attached to them. I wish we had beer laws and I could turn them in for this incredibly insulting brew.

This is my favorite brewery. The staff are fantastic and helpful with helping you pick out the perfect pint to relax with. It is located in the heart of Downtown Akron. They offer inside seating and outdoor seating. They have a wide selection of beers on tap and all of them are locally crafted. I highly recommend the Patty if you're into dark beer and coffee. However my all time favorite is their seasonal pumpkin beer. Their pumpkin beer has pumpkin and milk in it to make it a bit on the creamier side and top it off with a sugar rim it's the perfect autumn in a pint! As far as health guidelines go, no mask no service and all tables are distanced from each other. They also have arrows to avoid people from running into each other. And after patrons leave they are very diligent about sanitizing the area!

Great food, great menu, great beer, great service, and great ambiance ! Chilled environment. Have the choice of lounging on sofas, dinning in at regular tables, or sitting in the bar area. Lots of room and just all around comfortable to be at. Extra bonus.... They play great music and have all games going on the screens . Can definitely see my husband and I becoming regulars here.

Great location and general layout of the venue. Love how the tanks and brewing operation is an arms reach away. Super friendly staff we really enjoyed our time there. The beer was good I grabbed a couple of my favorites for the road!

Casual place to stop on a Sat night for an after dinner drink. Enjoyed all 4 beers in our flight, the Kernel was great but the Pumpkin was my favorite. No food on the menu but others in there had carried in pizza so I guess you could bring your own food. Parking was free in the garage next door after 6pm. We would return. read more

Good location downtown Akron. Nice open-air "garage"-style doors when the weather is nice. I liked having the 8 oz size to sample your beer, so you don't have to commit to a pint. On a weeknight it wasn't too crowded at all. The bartender was friendly and had good recommendations. read more

Some of the best beer I have tasted in NE Ohio (and we have some heavy hitters!). The Belgian and East Coast IPA were my favorites, but the stout and pilsner were close behind. These guys don't overcomplicate things or get too cute with crazy ingredients. They just make well-made, balanced beers. Everyone there seemed super passionate about their craft. The location is great - convenient parking in the garage above (free on weekends!). It feels very open for the space, and should be even better when it's warm enough to open up the patio and rollup doors. No kitchen, but tons of great food within a block or two. They mentioned they were planning to partner with some food trucks. Don't miss this place! read more

It was a nice brewery. The beer was just ok. The server was great. Very personable and knowledgeable about the beers. I got a beer and some food. The food was priced like a high quality meal but was more on the lines of Taco Bell. The nachos that I got were on that level. I think next time I will go across to Subway and get carry out. They did have a fun trivia night which I highly recommend going and participate. Overall just average. read more

Really great brewery in an almost "too good to be true" location. The staff is excellent and very friendly. There are board games available for your pleasure and the place is very well taken care of and clean! The beer is remarkable! My husband and I tried flights and then each a 5oz "sample" which meant we had about 8-9 of the beers they offered. Each one was phenomenal. I would HIGHLY recommend Akronym to anyone looking for a good place to have a good beer or two. read more

Loved how they opened the garage style doors to let the outside in! Beers were pretty tastey! I was very pleased with the prices--very affordable! I like the location too. It's easy to get to and there is a parking garage literally right around the corner across the street from the Akron art museum. The brewery doesn't serve food, but they did have a pop up restaurant serving food which I thought was a fun idea. I hope they rotate vendors.

We hadn't been to Ignite Brewing Company in a couple of years, and I forgot how good their beer is…read more Their Mountain High Hazy IPA is seriously one of my favorite hazy IPAs I've ever had. We also went during their luau event and tried the Hawaiian Punch, which was really good too. They often have live music and food trucks, which makes it a fun place to hang out. The patio is large with plenty of seating, and even when it's busy, they do a great job serving people quickly. Everything is clean, the atmosphere is laid back with a simple aesthetic, and it's just an all-around great place to spend an afternoon or evening. We'll definitely be back.

Loved the atmosphere of the place with plenty of indoor and outdoor (patio) seating and the ladies behind the bar were fantastic with great service! Don't remember the draft I had but it was definitely tasty, I believe it was one of their IPAs (which will most likely always be the case with me ha) - is Ohio not the craft beer capital yet?!

Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday. Partner ordered wings…read moreand I opted for the chicken sandwich. Both were very tasty. The huge portion of fries was too much (but delicious nonetheless!) It's worth noting that they share a space with Magic City Brewing and when walking in, it wasn't immediately clear what we were supposed to do. The only bartender on staff wasn't particularly talkative/welcoming in the sense of explaining what was going on or how things worked ...and the Cult Kitchen staff are behind a window past the bar. (I dont necessarily blame CK for the MCB bartender, but they're choosing to share that space and it's part of the experience so it seems like it's relevant.) We sat down at a booth and realized was a small table sign with a QR code for the food and drink menu. Below the codes is a small line of text that explains to go to the Cult Kitchen window for food and go to the bar for drinks. This isn't necessarily a bad setup, just had to adjust our mindset as it's more casual and in line with a food truck experience. ...like going up to the window more ketchup (it's in little lidded containers) for all those fries ...and cleaning up after yourself, as there is no one busing tables. Again, the food was very good but the overall experience was just lacking. It seems like it could be something really special if the hospitality and service was there!

In Akron for business and used Yelp to help find a place for a meal while in town…read more Be aware you will work a little upon arrival though at check out your are still offered the option to tip. Despite the positioning on their website it's not a traditional sit down place. It's an order window and then they bring food to the table. They share space with the Brewing company so a bottle of soda is what you get from the order window but anything else you go over to order at the bar separately. Two of us went for an early dinner. We opted for pretzel app which were tasty and a very big portion resulting in us not finishing them. I would say that app could easily serve 4. Slider special was tasty but considering the heavy portion of fries not everything on my plate was finished and neither was my coworkers meal. Eyes were bigger than our stomach. Place has about 10 (?) tables/booths and then folks sitting around the bar at the brewery side. I imagine on a popular day of the week (we went mid week before the dinner time rush) it could get crowded and loud. Feel of the place is grunge/biker though clean and well kept and without feeling 'theme restaurant'. I would say it has its only unique personality. Had we been more prepared from the restaurant's website for what the place was we might have more enjoyed things. It's just feels more 'out drinking and getting the nibbles' than a destination meal.

I had such a great experience at Akronym Brewing. From the moment I walked in, the staff stood out. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful without being over the top. You can tell they care about the experience, not just getting people in and out. I went for the food and it did not disappoint. Everything I tried was fresh, well-made, and honestly better than I expected from a brewery setting. It felt more like a solid food spot that also happens to serve drinks, not the other way around. I didn't try any of the alcohol, and I still left impressed. The atmosphere is relaxed, clean, and easy to enjoy whether you're going with friends or just stopping in for a meal. Overall, this is one of those places you leave thinking, "I'll definitely be back." If you're in the area and want great food with a welcoming vibe, this spot is worth your time. read more

Beer tasted watered down but my main issue was they didn't hire bartenders. I went and sat at the bar for a solid 7 min while there were 4 people behind the bar talking about taking a keg out for the weekend. How do I know that? Cuz the guy was talking loud enough that I could hear his stupid story instead of getting served. Patio is cool, it was filled with people which is what made me stop to check it out. read more
