The noise level is good enough to still have a decent conversation. Parking is free and easy in the lot. The food I had was catered in from Mission BBQ. It paired nicely with my drink. My drink of choice? The sour slushy cocktail. It's a beer cocktail that's the perfect mix of salty and sweet. It was so nice I did it twice.

This was the best fish and chips I've had in a long time, and the ribeye sandwich was also really, REALLY good. There is a wide selection of beers to choose from, with a couple of really interesting additions. We shared a couple flights and were especially happy with the Kolsch, the Irish Red, and the Sweet Porter. Our group was welcomed with smiling faces, they checked in on us often to see if we needed anything at all, and we thoroughly enjoyed the spotless and modern, yet warm, space. Love that they have plenty of off-street parking, and gender-neutral restrooms. Bring cash or pay a 3% credit card fee.

This is a great addition to the northern neck especially in Montross. We always used to stop at the…read moreMontross brewery to grab drinks and sometimes dinner before we head to our vacation home. After the Montross brewery was closed we hardly stopped in Montross. Recently we discovered this brewery and we decided to try it. They have a decent patio, and great interior. Huge space for live music, karaoke and game room. The bar tender was very nice. We ordered flight of beer and wings, potstickers and fries for food. Everything was great. The service was excellent. The bar tender is very nice to talk to. Brings good energy. Recommend sitting at the table if you don't have a large party. Karaoke singers were great too. Decently crowded space. We are definitely looking forward to stopping by on our way next time.

The chicken flatbread was delicious although as one person mentioned previously, heavy on the onion, which was no big deal to pick off. The gyros were yummy as well and although being a brewery, they do carry Athletic brewing for the NA crowd which is quite considerate! Staff had a lot going on because of the crowds coming for the parade and were generally nice but otherwise engaged so not sure how deeply friendly, but it was fine!!

The beers are great and the owner will even take time to walk you through the different types if you catch him. The staff are always friendly and nice. They don't serve food, but there are usually food trucks there or there's a pizza spot in the same plaza that delivers and is yummy. You can also order delivery to the brewery or bring your own food. Overall, I definitely recommend checking out and supporting Barley Naked!

She always remembers us and provides exceptional and personal service. This past weekend, we went to the Ice House to celebrate our engagement and they gave us a bottle of champagne and wonderful recognition. Along with the live music that they regularly have.

Pros:A great spot for live entertainment with a cool, stylish interior. There's plenty of seating…read moreboth indoors and outdoors, depending on the season. The wings were good, though the sauce was drizzled on rather than fully tossed. Cons:The fries were just okay. Despite staying to enjoy the live music, our wings and fries were served in to-go containers, and we weren't provided plates--expected to eat straight from the boxes, even though plates were clearly available behind the bar. Beer and cider selections were also more limited than expected. Overall: The venue has a great atmosphere, live entertainment, and decent wings, but the limited drink selection and the inconvenience of eating from to-go containers indoors significantly affected the overall experience. Therefore, I need to give this one a 3 out of 5.

I will say, the speakers are terrible when they speak into the microphone for trivia, and we have to strain to hear the question, every time. All in all its pretty chill, so if that's what you're looking for, stop in one day!

I was so excited to visit this place after reading all the positive reviews; however, our…read moreexperience was a letdown due to the hospitality (or lack of it). We were here earlier than usual (10:30 am, don't judge me for drinking before noon!!!) and we're the only customers. It's uniquely located at a camp ground, but parking is a bit limited. The tasting room is small but has amble seating. There was a piano in the tasting room and no one was at the tasting room when we entered. My daughter who is a beginner pianist, wanted to play. Since there were no signs on the piano that forbid people touching, she went ahead and played. Then an older gentleman came in and told us in a stern tone that the piano is not for playing. He was not friendly at all and even after we apologized and ordered a flight for sampling, he still was not engaging. I'm not sure if he is the brew master or just someone works for the campsite store, but he didn't seem too happy to be there. We had the 2 stouts, an Amber, and pilsner on tap for our flight. They were all just OK. We didn't want to order more because his attitude and the sense that we were not welcomed there... Which was too bad because it was a nice space with plenty of outdoor seating, a playground in the back for kids to play while parents enjoy some refreshing beer. We will most likely not go back again given the cold-shoulder treatment.

The service was excellent, the staff was friendly, and the other guests (mostly regulars) made for great company! Powers only serves beer, but they do have a food truck rotation that comes through, so make sure to check their website before visiting to find out what's being served that day. The beer selection is decent and has something for everyone's taste. There is plenty of indoor seating and just as much outdoor seating, so you won't have to worry about standing up the whole time even when it's busy. Outside they have a Corn Hole setup and they also had a soccer ball you could kick around if you wanted to. To add to the outdoor ambiance, there was also a chicken coop that you could walk up to and look at. Also, if you're around during the evening, they might get the bonfires going! One of favorite parts about our visit was being able to enjoy my porter outside by the bonfire. All-in-all, it was a pleasant surprise and definitely worth a visit if you're ever out in Midland, VA or just won't to do something outside the city if you're in the DMV area.
