They gave you this really cool wristband and all you have to do is tap it to whatever beer you wanna try and then you can pour as much as you want! They have upstairs and downstairs seating, board games, shuffleboard, darts, and TVs spread throughout if you want to catch the game. It's a great place to hang out! The pizza was sooo good! It's Detroit style with a crispy buttery crust. We got the Sizzlin' Sweet Pie which had pineapple, ricotta, bacon, and jalapeños. Delicious! Don't sleep on the fries though! Those things were cooked to perfection, crispy but fluffy on the inside and though they don't look like they are seasoned, they are seasoned perfectly! It was like magic - I don't know how they did it. I could not get enough of them!

Unfortunately, some of the sours were already sold out, so I didn't get to try the ones I was really hoping for. They did still have a few other sours available, though, and the ones we tried were pretty good. One thing I found a little strange was the beer flight. It was priced similarly to other flights we've had, but instead of the usual four beers, they only serve three. They bring the flight out on a paddle with four slots, but only allow three beers, which seemed a little odd. The food was pretty good. We got the buffalo burger, crab dip, and beer cheese soup, and enjoyed everything. The ambience is definitely one of the highlights the brewery is located inside a repurposed firehouse, which makes it a really cool and unique space. Overall, we had a good experience. I just wish more of the beers had been available and that the flight included four beers like the paddle suggests.

I've been to this place twice now -- I loved it the last time I passed through Rapid…read more I was impressed: the selection is big, with lots of interesting, creative, homemade flavors in tap. The guy was friendly, and introduced me to a few things I'd never tried, such as coffee kombucha. I'm an amateur brewer, we had a great conversation, and he generously shared a couple tips with me. The kombucha I bought was great, and I regretted not getting more, so I made a detour back there on my next trip through town. This time, though, the woman tending to customers was pretty unfriendly. She acted like my request to try 2 flavors before I bought one was an imposition (last time, I was told that was standard, or I wouldn't have asked). She responded defensively to my (very basic) question about how one of the flavors was brewed, saying she had nothing to do with the production. She messed up my order, but corrected herself before she handed it to me -- then seemed angry with me, as if it was my fault. She was clearly annoyed when I used coins to pay for part of my order, and then shorted me a dollar for my change, which I had to explain the math on 3 times before she fixed it. I am all for supporting local businesses, especially ones that have such a great product. I would've given 5 stars after my first time through. But the woman who helped me the second time made the experience so unpleasant that the next time I'm in Rapid, I'm going to look though the window to check if she's working before I decide to come in. In summary: excellent kombucha, but the customer service can be either great or terrible, depending on who's staffing the front.
