An added bonus was the evening we were there was music trivia. The DJ was personable and the music selection was an eclectic mix that appealed to everyone. I will definitely be back.

I will definitely plan to go back and get the full experience and try the various brews they have on tap. I have had the Mayta corn beer elsewhere, which eas really good.

5 stars for a fantastic new Aldus location…read more My wife and I drive up from DC each year to get pretzel beer from Aldus. When we were driving up this year, I noticed the location changed from by a cemetery to the downtown area. We found some parking nearby and went in to check it out. The new Aldus location is a large beautiful area with a big bar and even a separate restaurant area. We took a seat and the wonderful bartender let us try out several holiday beers before picking our flight. Each beer we tasted was fun and interesting, but the pretzel-based ones were the best. We also ordered a hot pretzel (the venue gets some of its food from the nearby hotel), which was quite large and went great with our beers. Overall, the new Aldus brewing location is a huge upgrade. The nice location, cool staff, and great beer makes this a spot we will continue checking out for years to come.

My uncle ordered a cup of chili to start. It was served hot which is always a bonus. Not too spicy even though it had a spice label next to it on the menu. The presentation was nice as it's served with 4 tortilla chips. My Aunt opted for the babyback ribs served with fries. My uncle's main dish was the soft shell crab tacos while I went with the brisket mac and cheese and side Caesar salad. These items, with exception of the salad, were on a separate menu, likely seasonal. The servings are large (even the side salad)! I barely put a dent in my Mac and cheese. I was a little disappointed that the brisket that was "folded" within my MAC and cheese was playing Hide-and-seek. I would prefer more protein in that dish based on the quantity of pasta. The salad was well-dressed. At most restaurants I have to add caesar dressing to the salads. I washed it down with a sweet tea while my Uncle tried the White Birch beer. My aunt thought the baby back ribs were dry, and had a bit too much sauce on it. It would have been nice to have less sauce on the ribs, with additional sauce on the side. My uncle did not think the soft shell crab tacos were all that (although novel), which is probably why he ordered. It had more batter on it, and one can barely taste the crab. He said he would not order it again. As residents they will not go back to this restaurant anytime soon, and can't really recommend it unless someone just wants to try give it a try. I'll have to try the root beer on my next visit. Our waiter was very attentive and the volume in the restaurant was reasonable enough to have table conversations. I definitely recommend stopping at one of these locations if you're visiting or passing through.

Potato Chips seemed house made and lacked seasoning. Fish and chips was fried too brown but tasted good and hot and a large serving size. Fries arrived a bit cool.

4 stars for a very simple but very fun small town brewery…read more I told this story to the server and now I'll tell it to you: a few years ago, Shock Top created an amazing beer called the Pretzel Wheat. It tasted just like pretzels and was something I bought all the time. Anheuser-Busch then purchased Shock Top and discontinued my beer. Ever since then, I have been looking for a pretzel beer replacement, but the only places that ever sold it were far away breweries, so I thought my pretzel beer drinking days were over. Fortunately, a friend of ours told us about some Pennsylvania breweries to check out that were only a couple hours away. One of those breweries was Aldus Brewing up in Hanover (not too far from Gettysburg). I happened to check out the venue's website and saw that it sold...pretzel wheat beer! After a few months of going back and forth about the distance (a little less than 2 hours from DC), my wife and I finally jumped in the car one lazy Saturday and drove up. The brewery is located pretty close to a cemetery in a rather residential area. We parked on the street and saw lots of outside tables and only a few people. My wife and dog grabbed a table as I headed up some stairs and inside to check the place out. The brewery has a very clean and new look (I think it was maybe a year old at the time of this writing) with a bar off to the right and more seating farther inside. The bartender asked if I needed help, I told her we were sitting outside, and she said someone would be right out. A server came outside to help us a few minutes later. She was generally pretty pleasant and was able to tell us a good bit about some of the beers the venue offered. We decided to start with a soft pretzel and cheese to go with our beers that was absolutely delicious. We then decided to go with "flights" which wasn't as formal as other breweries in that you say which beers you want and they bring you small plastic cups of the beer. That totally worked for us and gave us the chance to try a bunch of beers for what felt like next to nothing in terms of price. The beers we tried included the Driving Me Nuts (hazelnut beer that was like other chocolate beers), My Cherries Amour (fun cherry beer), Berry Your Blues (an excellent blueberry beer), Sunset Daydream and Old Favorite Lager (standard easy drinking beers), and of course, the Pretzel Wheat. The Pretzel Wheat (which I only figured out once we were there was due to Hanover being essentially Pretzel Town USA) was absolutely delicious and exactly what I was looking for. In fact (and this is how the brewery will know who wrote this), I decided to buy 3 cases of the Pretzel Wheat that day. As each case holds 24 beers for something like $35 or $40, I think I ordered enough beer to last me until our next mecca up to the great Pennslyvania north in 2021. Overall, Aldus Brewing provided us with a nice brewery experience and a chance to get ahold of some pretzel beer. While a 2 hour drive might not be for everyone, I would definitely recommend checking this spot out if you are in the area.

"They have been known to knock it out of the hands of patrons." Although we didn't have any ghostly experiences here ourselves, we had a very nice time. I had come here about ten years ago when they brewed their own beer, which they since have stopped doing. Other Pennsylvania beers are available in tap and in cans. They make spirits/liquor, and have a restaurant. A couple of TVs had live sports on. The real selling point is the history of the building. This old confederate hospital is very unique. All in all, a good time for us.

First, half the tables were empty and there was still like a half hour wait. It just seemed not staffed enough, but once you're here (they don't take reservations) there's not a lot of places nearby to change your mind to. There is a small merch shop to browse as you wait. The tables are nicely spaced out. The Bavarian pretzels were great, but they only come with mustard and cheese is an upcharge, which I've never seen as a pretz connoisseur. It was an interesting thicker cream cheese-ish dip which required spreading with the knife. The website lists a "weekly steak special" but none was to be found when we went. So we got the gyro which was decent and the Philly cheesesteak which was extremely salty to the point of being almost inevitable. The homemade chips (the only non upcharge size) were thick and crunchy. Both sandwiches were around $20 which felt overpriced for the quality. Other sides were available for an upcharge, which seemed not worth it on the existing bill. The service was good, the bathrooms were nice, and there was plenty of parking. The food was just disappointing. If you're more of a drinker, you may be able to overlook that.
