Alaina D.

A great place to grab a beer! The place was very clean and had plenty of tvs and seating. I went on a Sunday afternoon, and there was no one in here so we got served right away. Tons of options! I got the lightest beer... the parabol I think, and I really liked it. The beers comes in these cute little glasses. The brewery was in a complex, which I wasn't expecting, but once inside you couldn't tell that you weren't in a stand alone store. There was plenty of parking, and it is very easy to find from the road.

Holiday Cheer

I've been meaning to check this place out for a while now but after trying them out at Brew at the Zoo I knew I really needed to make a stop. Came by around 6:30 on a Friday and they had live music, tables and tents in the parking lot and a food truck. Loved the space and it quickly filled up. Bartender was great and attentive we asked for a few pours of the most popular options and she was super helpful and informative. They do 4oz pours for $3-$5 and these were great for us to try out a few options without committing to a full pour. I liked everything I tried and I'm really not even a huge beer fan. The frozen drinks are where it was at for me, I love eggnog especially frozen and their holiday cheer was FANTASTIC Will definitely be back soon and recommending them to everyone I know looking for a fun spot in AP

Gilla is an awesome bar and great way to support a local business. Gilla has great customer service. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The bartender provided great drink recommendations when I asked sweet drink suggestions. At the bartender's suggestion, I ordered the Lush Plush and the Hummingbird Cake. The Lush Plush was my favorite. My drinks were great but be warned they are a little sour. Also, Gilla has a nice atmosphere and is a great place to hang out. Some of the tables are spaced out enough that you can sit away from other people if you want to sit somewhat social distanced.

I really don't understand why I haven't been here sooner! This place is so close to me! For a girlie girl that likes her girlie drinks, I really enjoy the sours! I didn't even touch the wines on tap! Again, this is a family business that I would gladly support! I discovered them years ago at a beer festival and voted for their brews!!!! I love their unique blends and flavors! I really enjoyed the sour Lush: #STTDP and the sour Lush: Candyshop V2! I have been trying to stay away from carbs but this was worth it! I highly highly recommend this place because of unique blends that have great flavors, supporting local family-run businesses and because they have pretty souvenirs too!!! Please head over here! You won't regret it!!!

Lush sour raspberry beer! (the BOMB POP)
Bonnie S.

Cool little brewery with fun beer flavors! Got a variety 4 pack tonight to go with our tacos from next door. We tried the Bomb Pop, which was craaaazzzzy. It's the bluest drink you ever drank and tasted like a blue raspberry sour punch straw. I wish I would have taken a pic of how blue it is but we demolished it before I could. Most unique and probably the sugariest beer I've ever had. 11/10

Happiness in a glass. Clockwise (top right): Wine Down, carrot beer (forgot the officia name), Lebowski, and some Merlot.

This is a great place for beer lovers and there are some things for non-beer lovers too. With a…read moreminimum of 20 different beers on tap at any one time, it's a GREAT place to get a beer-ducation! From lighter lagers, attainable ambers, to yeasty Belgians, to darker browns and stouts, all the way to the various IPAs from coast to coast, and their trendy sours and seltzers, you can find any style that suits your tastes! Also, if you're overwhelmed with the selection, there are 20-sided dice at the bar to let random selection occur for you! Staff is friendly and they're also there to help you decide, being knowledgeable about the brews. But don't forget the food truck outside! BREW BYTES BISTRO has excellent American pub food and burgers for you to choose from! Agile holds events and specials pretty much all week long and they have expanded their hours to seven days a week at the time I'm writing this--so there's always a good time to come try it out!

I have been to Agile Brewing several times and it may be my favorite brewery in Baton Rouge. I…read moreknow it has my favorite brewery snack. The cheese curds and craklins. Whoever put these two items together is a genius! The chewy, meaty, crunchiness of the cracklins along with the gooey, saltiness of the cheese curds is the perfect combo. It's like Peanut butter and Jelly! Peas and Carrots! Beavis and Butthead! Ok I may have went too far but they are great. The beer is good too. Agile usually has 15 or so different beers or seltzers on tap. What I like about Agile is they don't just have 12 different IPA's (although I am a huge IPA guy) a stout and a blonde. They have all kinds of styles which is a good change of pace. Upon my last visit I had a Stout, An American Wheat, an IPA and a Krystalweisse (German light beer) in my flight. All were really good but the Krystalweisse was surprisingly good in that it was both flavorful and still light. Another plus for Agile is they are in an industrial park that includes 2 distilleries and another brewery. So, get you some curds and cracklins then get shmangled. Just call an Uber.

We stopped by for drinks after brunch on a Saturday afternoon and were seated right away. Service…read morewas great and the drinks came out quickly. They were strong, flavorful, and well made. I had the raspberry margarita and the frozé, both of which were really good. We also ordered a few appetizers, and everything was tasty. This was my first visit, but definitely won't be my last. A great spot for drinks, bites, or catching a game.

Beer Garden Review 2…read more Hospitality isn't complicated. It's making people feel like guests instead of table numbers. And Mid City Beer Garden didn't skip that part. In fact, the way we were treated says more about the character of this place than the food ever could. I use a cane, so I now have three legs--well, four if you count my beautiful husband! After our HVAC decided to abandon us in the middle of this heat wave, we figured the best way to beat the temperature was to escape to Mid City Beer Garden in Baton Rouge for some cold drinks, good food, and hopefully a little relief. When we walked in, we were warmly greeted. I immediately noticed the high seating and explained my situation, asking if a booth was available. The beautiful young lady greeter checked and told us it would be about a 15-minute wait. After just escaping our sweltering house, we weren't sure we wanted to wait that long. Then the handsome young gentleman greeter said, "Let me make sure." About five minutes later, he came back with the best news: "We have a booth for you!" That small gesture meant a lot. They didn't simply tell us to wait--they took the time to find a comfortable seating option for me. We immediately felt welcomed and appreciated. We visited in the evening, and the atmosphere was exactly what we needed. The evening vibe was spot-on--industrial meets modern, softened by greenery, warm lighting, string lights, and neon. Think laid-back European beer garden, but effortlessly cool. At night, the place really came alive without losing that cozy, inviting feel. Beer lovers, don't skip the main bar. The custom tap wall is a total vibe, with a solid lineup of beers and plenty of personality. Our waitress continued that same level of hospitality. She was attentive, friendly, and provided that kind of service where the smile feels genuine rather than part of the uniform. But then came the moment that really impressed me. I ordered a 10 oz. Sapporo, but somehow received a 16 oz. I didn't even notice the difference. When we were getting ready to pay, our waitress came over and told us about the blunder-- noting we would only be charged for the 10 oz. Now THAT is honesty. We've been to establishments where billing mistakes seem to mysteriously work in the restaurant's favor. So having someone actually point out an error that benefited us--and make sure we weren't overcharged--was refreshing. Speaking of the food... We ordered the shrimp po'boy. It certainly looked loaded with shrimp, but was skimpy and unfortunately, it fell short for us. The shrimp was flavorful, but overcooked. The bread was thick and dense, so I eventually found myself eating only the shrimp and leaving the rest of the sandwich behind. The fries were tasty, but they didn't have that hot, fresh-out-of-the-oil crispiness we were hoping for, so we only ate a few. Would I order the shrimp po'boy again? Probably not. I'm only speaking for the two people at our table--and we're not professional food critics, just two hungry people with opinions! Now, the real highlight of our visit... We met the most beautiful soul. My husband suddenly says, "Look, there's a really tall young man sitting behind you." I turned around, stood up, and said, "My husband said you're really tall. Can I take a picture with you?" He was so sweet and gracious and took a picture with me. And let me tell you--that absolutely made my night! I told him he was beautiful, and he responded, "You are beautiful too!" I disagreed with him, of course. He looked at me and said, "No, ma'am. You are beautiful." Well... alright then! You win. Naturally, I had questions. I asked if he played basketball. "Yes, for Southern University." I asked his jersey number. "Number 22." I told him, "Well, I'm coming to see you play!" And that young man gave me one of the biggest, brightest smiles I've ever seen on a basketball player. So, y'all... if you get out to Southern University and A&M College this season, go show #22 some love and cheer him on. Who knows? We might be looking at a future NBA champion! We had a wonderful evening at Mid City Beer Garden. Eventually, we went back home to a house that had finally cooled down and enjoyed the rest of our evening loving on each other. Thank you, Mid City Beer Garden, for giving us a place to escape the heat, relax, laugh, eat, drink, and make a memory. And most of all... Thank you, Number 22, for honoring an old lady's wishes. Some nights are about the food. Some nights are about the atmosphere. And some nights, you just happen to meet a beautiful souls who makes the whole evening unforgettable.
