There's something for every beer drinker! The owner also distills all his own spirits and makes all of the syrups that go in his drinks! It's truly impressive! When we first stopped in, we got talking to the owner who let us sample many different beers before we finally settled on a few drinks. I had their Taco Crusher that has the best Jalapeno flavor. My friends got a spirit flight and the Diablo Margarita. We kept going with a Strawberry Lavender Lemonade and Old Fashioned. Nothing disappointed! I asked that the strawberry lavender lemonade be made with vodka instead of gin, as I don't care for gin, but the owner convinced me to order the drink as it came and he did not let me down! Every drink we had was sooo good! The owner is truly passionate about what he does and is so knowledgeable and happy to explain all the processes. They often have food trucks parked out front that you can try while you drink one of Redlines incredible drinks. I really cannot say enough good things about this place! Try them out!

The cider is really good, they have flight options and howlers and growlers to go (we bought one). Now they have food- they have a terrific gourmet grilled cheese food truck outside specifically catering to Flint City Hard Cider called Hard Core Grilled Cheese. They're really good, so good in fact, that we ordered a third sandwich with chips to split after we had already ordered sandwiches with our cider. They even have vegan/vegetarian option, including vegan cheese for the less carnivorous types (my wife is happy about that). All sandwiches come with pickle spears and homemade chips. The food was excellent and the cider was great. Service can be hit or miss, depending on how busy they are, but the staff was pleasant and helpful when describing cider options. I like the atmosphere and the vibe. It's quiet and relaxing. They have bar seating, family style seating and two person tables throughout. The night we were here, they were hosting a curbside concert outdoors. The entire evening was nice. It'll be great when they can use the stage they have inside to host live music.

Pretty nice! My…read morefriend and I stopped in this week now that they are finally able to reopen after the Coronavirus shutdown. They had opened their doors right before coronavirus caused the three month shutdown, so this was our first chance to go in. We have had their cider before at other downtown bars etc (they sell their signature cider to a few locations around town and had curbside service), so both of us were eager to give their tap room location a whirl. They had a nice variety of reasonably priced ciders on tap by the glass, including the option to order flights for $12, in addition to howlers and growlers. I ordered Walk the Lime, which was a tart flavored cider. I rather liked it, it wasn't too dry or zesty. I've had their signature, Flint City Dry, which is decent, but a bit too dry for me and not my favorite. However, Pineapples in Flight was excellent and is one of my favorites. Maybe next time I'll get one of their flavored cider shots. The cider infused cocktails looked interesting, too, so I'll try one of those the next time we stop in. Overall, the cider options were varied. The service was good, the cider was excellent and the location has promise. It was dark, but very spacious with substantial seating and a few arcade games and whatnot, with a nice stage area, which I kinda hope will be home to live music down the road. I didn't notice a food menu yet, but perhaps that will change in the future.

If there's anything that you want that isn't on the shelves, just ask him and he'll custom order it. Very good variety of craft beers.

I stopped by here two Saturdays ago with my wife and twins for lunch. We were planning on visiting…read morePere Marquette 1225 that afternoon and so I fired up Yelp to find a place to eat in Owosso. Barrister Brewing Company fit that bill perfectly by combining both food and beverages. We entered from the West Main Street entrance and found a pretty big space with plenty of tables for seating and then a large bar. There was a corner with games and things as well as an area with law-themed items. The ceiling was black and gave off an industrial type of vibe. As I often do whenever I visit a new brewery, I went with a flight here. At Barrister Brewing, that consisted of five beers and they came out in what looked like a book. For my beers I chose the Sour Deposition (raspberry Berliner weisse), a MarBERRY vs MADISON (blueberry wheat), Kastysis Baltic Porter, Amicus Crunchiae Peanut Butter Porter, and finally the Alibi IPA (Midwestern IPA). The first beer I tried was the Sour Deposition, which had a nice tart flavor with a good taste of raspberries right through the finish. Second was the blueberry wheat, which had carbonation up front before the blueberry hit, and it finished with a taste of the wheat. Next was the Baltic porter, which had some sweetness from start to finish with a nice hit of darker malts right in the middle for added flavor. After that was the peanut butter porter, which had a mild peanut smell with sweetness from start to finish and an almost creamy mouthfeel in the middle. Last but certainly not least was the Alibi IPA, which had a deep and hoppy flavor right out of the gate that persisted through the finish, leaving no doubt that this was an IPA. Out of the bunch, the peanut butter porter was easily my favorite, followed by the Sour Deposition. After looking over the food menu, I ultimately decided on the mac and cheese and added the smoked chicken for an upcharge. Then I was able to choose between BBQ sauces and went with the Carolina rather than the traditional sweet and spicy. I was also surprised when given a choice of sides with the mac and cheese and doubled up on my carbs with fries. My mac and cheese had plenty of cheese with a good flavor. I don't know that I could have told you it was beer cheese if the menu hadn't mentioned it. The chicken was nice and smoky, while the Carolina BBQ sauce was nice and tangy. The fries may have been the best part of my meal, though. The menu noted that they were a special variant from Farmer Ed's that had a higher sugar content and browned more easily. I found them to be perfectly crispy on the outside while super soft on the inside. That little extra bit of sweetness was noticeable too, and I think these were the best fries that I have had in a really long time. My son ended up eating the mac and cheese and fries while my daughter ate a cheese toastie. Both of our kids were super happy with their food, so we ordered my daughter a second cheese toastie and a second order of fries for them to split as well. The bottom line for me is that I would stop by here again in the future. My wife and I both appreciated the drinks, and our whole family enjoyed the food here.
