Candice S.

Absolutely love this place. It's so nostalgic and I am so happy there is actually a place you can get Duff Beer. We came here several times over our four day trip and the service was excellent every time.

If you're here, stop into the outside bar next to the brewer and find Sean! He's the best bartender. If the weather's good, hang out for a while and enjoy the view of the pond while you sip on your favorite beverage.

Be sure to grab a Dufftoberfest & Duff Dry!

The beer is good, but the staff is better! Best beer is the Duff Dry, but it's only in a bottle. Would be great to get that one on tap! Dufftoberfest is a good Oktoberfest variant, but the availability can vary from year to year. Seating can be a challenge if you're looking to sit at the bar, but there are other seats nearby. There is some bar food available (pretzels, for example) and they can also do some mixed drinks (margaritas are a hit). If anyone from Universal is reading this, please consider enforcing families with kids to sit somewhere else other than the bar. Most of us come to the bar to toss down a pint or two before moving on, but those kiddo families come for the shade and take up half of one side for way too long!

One of the more affordable & accessible spots to grab a quick drink, pretzel, or a beer. They have Simpsons playing on the tv which is a plus. They also have fans hanging from the ceilings that provide a small breeze when is hot. Wasn't too impressed with this place, but also wasn't disappointed so that's always a win when at Universal! The service we received was subpar but we didn't expect much being that it was so busy & hot.

Ok hear me out, the CORN DOG is elite here and is a must try!!! The service is always eh, I feel like the bartenders are just so busy. This place really makes you feel like you're on the Simpsons. Get the corn dog and a duff beer and you're on your way!

Beer

I looking forward to making a stop at Duff pub to experience the fun of the Simpsons world. Unfortunately, I was disappointed since the beer comes in a basic plastic cup. I would be super happy if the plastic cup had the duff logo on it. Price for beer is $13 and you get your choice of regular or light. Service was good. The bartenders behind the counter are polite and got us beers fairly quickly. You can sit right at the bar or take the beer with you and enjoy it at one of the picnic tables behind the pub

Pretty good duff beers always a good nice cold beer on a hot summer day. Can't go wrong. Super nice service really cool setting to sit and have a beer and watch people walk by..

Duff's Amber Red Ale 20oz $10.99 (03/04/20). @UniversalOrlando #Orlando #Florida @TheSimpsons #Beer #DrinkPorn

(Drank/Snacked 03/04/20 WE @ 3:30pm): Grabbing a beer at this brewery was a must for any "The Simpsons" fan! On the grounds of Universal Studios Resort Orlando (Universal Studios Florida to be exact), I dragged my travel friend along to Duff Brewery for a drink of the famous beer from the animated series "The Simpsons" fame. As a fan of the show and a lover of beer I had to get my drink on! Did this brew have any merit or was it totally for show!? PURCHASE Duff's Amber Red Ale Beer 20oz ???% ABV ($10.99): Amber red color, slight hoppy malt aroma, medium body, butterscotch malt flavor, dry finish, and a slight hoppy malt aftertaste - an easy drink for any day and surprisingly low price based on theme parks and concerts comparisons https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=ttPrXuNZ-dZgh8t9VQo4qw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Jumbo Pretzel ($8.49): One of the few food options available, this pretzel was fresh, fluffy, thick, and reasonably covered with salt (I usually brushed off most of it), served with a side of dippy mustard and catsup packets, this was a perfect treat to absorb the beer and tide us over until we eventually ate a real meal https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=yYes2eSdQlCrnGomygLKaA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Soda 16oz ($3.99): My friend wasn't much of a beer drinker, so she opted for this sugar water quencher... and you knew how much I disliked soda - bleh! SERVICE Greeted by a jovil young gentleman, he welcomed us in as he gestured towards a couple open bar seats. We quickly placed our order, and minutes later it all came out. The rest of our time was spent relaxing while we enjoyed the shade and the waterfront views. Soon enough, we were ready to move on and easily paid as our bartender wished us a good day - all was good! PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance) General parking for the massive theme park started from $25.00, but my friend and I took a Lyft ride in and skirted parking altogether. Also, I believed if you stayed at any of the resorts in the area, shutter services were available. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Located in "Springfield: Home Of The Simpsons" part of the park, this was pretty much an outside bar with some shade, patio tables, and a relaxing view of the waterfront. The bar itself was just that: a rectangular spacing with barstools all around https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=EcsqG-IbhWmDQBoryP609g&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Plenty of natural lighting since you were primarily outdoors while various hung electric ceiling lights covered the rest. There were no TVs while the whirling sounds of conversations, rides, etc., filled the air. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=A-cmQ-mKOjoAuRTjbK7I3A&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL If you visited Universal Studios Resort Orlando (specifically the Universal Studios Florida park portion) and were a fan of "The Simpsons", then you definitely had to seek out Duff Brewery for the experience of drinking Homer's favorite drink. Unfortunately, the beer and food selections were extremely limited. Sure, this was 100% a marketing tool (my career has been in marketing for over 25 years!) but thankfully the beer was pretty good (same with the pretzel). I'd go back again for an affordable cold brew anytime. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $25.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS

A Duff Heavy!
Ashley H.

I can't figure out if it is Heineken or Yuengling.... ITS DUFF!!! Just a malty beer in a theme park ‍

Christian G.

Love the Duff bar! Quick service, ample seating on the water front side and great bartenders. Love me some Finnegan's but the pours are bigger at Duff Brewery for the liquor drinks. Love me a Long Island Iced Tea, especially when Kyle makes them! Ample amount of fans with clips from the Simpsons playing in the background. Food wise it's just corn dogs and pretzels but they're enough to hit the spot.

Duff Lite
David D.

If you are a fan of the Simpsons, stop by and experience Duff Gardens. Sample a Duff beverage and learn the names of the Seven Little Duffs (including Remorseful)!

Squishee!
Bruce B.

An open-air bar that serves spiked-Squishees and Duff beers in the middle of Springfield itself. Life doesn't get any better than this, my friends. Take a seat, order a drink, and live inside the cartoon for a while, with a smile.

See all

For those who don't know what a squishee is, it is fairly similar to a slurpee drink you'd get at 711, but these ones are super flavourful and very smooth.

As a loyal fan of Orlando's local brewery scene (shoutout to my neighborhood favorites Tactical and Ten10), I don't venture far from my comfort zone. But every now and then, I'll travel a daring five miles for a place that feels like it was plucked straight out of the Pacific Northwest and this is that place. The beer? Amazing. The staff? Incredible. The space? Open, welcoming, and plenty of seating to settle in for a while. Now let's talk about the only adventure here: parking. The immediate lot is small and can feel like you're competing in the Orlando Parking Olympics. But there's additional parking across the street to the left near some office buildings. Finding parking in Orlando sometimes feels as hard as snagging a spot in NYC, but trust me, it's worth the effort. They're constantly brewing something new okay, maybe not every single week, but it sure feels like it and somehow it's always excellent. There's always something fresh and creative on tap. So yes, I absolutely recommend this place. If you can park, come on in. You won't regret it.

Parking was…read morea bit difficult to find, but then became easier when I was told I could park at the bbq restaurant next door. We ordered directly at the bar, and tried their moonshine iced lemonade tea. For 8 bucks, it was a refreshing drink, and the alcohol lingered lightly. I was surprised they allowed outside food, but they have a partnership with the bbq restaurant next door. So I got a pulled pork sandwich with bbq beans as side, and banana pudding (about 18 dollars total for all). The sandwich was fair with ample amount of pork, but could have been a bit more flavorful. Thankfully the bbq sauce on the side helped. The pork was tender enough. The bbq definitely helped the beans to be more enjoyable. It only it had a bit more kick. The banana pudding tasted like Publix pudding, and looked to be missing actual bananas. It has wafers instead. Though, I still enjoyed it and can't complain when it was under 4 bucks. The tables were sit yourself, and outdoor seating was available as well. After you order your food the drinks, and pay at the bar, they will deliver it directly to you. It was quiet when I went on a Friday, but there was a live band playing Caribbean music. Dogs are allowed here, and the dogs people bring can be pretty big. While the food was just above average, the drinks are still very good. Since the food is from their partner restaurant, I am still giving them 5 stars because of their great and reasonably priced drinks in a social and fun atmosphere. The service was very friendly and helpful too. Last time I visited, they had the mechanical bull riding contest, and I will definitely do that if they ever have that again. It is still a great place to have drinks with your friends and family. Overall: A-

This go around it was the exact opposite experience. We had several beers and we enjoyed all of them. This location is fairly large so if you have a larger group, it's great for groups to come to. They do not have food service but they do typically have a food truck there for a short period of time, but there are eateries in the area so I'm sure having food delivered or going across the street or down the street to get food would not be an issue either. My husband really enjoyed their brown ale. We also tried the bourbon barrel aged one as well and found it to be very sweet. We also tried the drunken Irish, which was great, but our favorite was by far the wee Peaty. It was described to us as having a little smoked flavor to it, but we found that was definitely not the case and really enjoyed the depth of the flavor in this beer.

If you love great craft beer, Twelve Talons is one of the best kept secrets in Orlando. So Travis,…read morethe owner/brewer is in my opinion a genius. He brews beer like some people paint master pieces. The beer here is next level, especially if you appreciate the nuances of craft beer. Sarah was our server the two times I have been here and, what a great person. And she so knows her beer. The first time I was here Travis explained the concept of the 3 foot raven or crow, but upon making this review, the mythology escapes me. Still... whatever they are doing here is working. And... if you love craft beer, this is a must visit. There is beer, mead, wine and mixed drinks. And they have a dedicated food truck with some decent options. The BEER: Papa Midnight coconut Imperial Stout 10.8% ABV... so imagine a mounds or almond joy, but it is a stout. The nose is all toasted coconut. And it is so very great. Da Minted peppermint Imperial Stout 10.8% ABV... so I saved this one for last because I thought it would be sweet, and it is not. Dark chocolate and mint. Very delicious.... The Hop & Haze IPA 5.6% ABV... this a great hazy, white grapefruit, clean flavors and totally crushable She's Not Rude, Just Chai spiced red ale 5.5% ABV... the chai makes this red ale smell sweet and it is anything but that Beauregard's Berry End fruited sour 5.8% ABV... has a sweet jam nose, it is a sour, and it is sour, but those jam notes make it next level... "it's a little earthy and that comes from the mushrooms" To Sir, Wit Love gose 4.7% ABV... Light flavorful, slightly salty, slightly sour, not everyone's palette, but definitely mine Path to Gold golden ale 5% ABV... so very crushable, this is your everyday beer for everyday people She's a Bonnie Lass Irish Red 5.8%... wow, the taste is indescribable, it is red ale with balance A Norse of a Different Color hazy IPA 7% ABV... so high in IBUs, great mouth feel, if you like a piny hoppy IPA, you will be a fan Oolong Time, No See session mead 6% ABV... I am totally in love with this session mead. So graceful, tasteful and unique. I think this is my favorite!!! The Hummingbird Special sweet mead 11.8% ABV... says fermented Florida wild flowers honey, but it has a sweet and nutty almost peanut flavor. It is super sweet and quite tasty. Like a sweet wine. TT hard Cider 6.6% ABV... dry cider, like an an English cider, really liked it I so wish ai lived closer to Twelve Talons. So many great and unique flavors in craft beers, ciders and meads. There is something great going on here. Like and share.
