Black Swan offered a nice selection of beer and a small food menu. We ordered peanuts to go with our beer. The beer is definitely the star of the show here. You can order a flight with 4 or 5 beers and they are clearly marked on the flight. The service was good and staff were friendly. We enjoy sitting for about an hour and took a six pack to go. There was a study stream of people buying beer to go. We did not realize there was a strike which was causing shortages of beer and alcohol in stores.

Four of us shared one of the $15 wood fired pizzas. We each had 2 slices. Thin crust, tasty and just right for a snack. Thumbs up for that! I wish we could be as positive about the beers. One of our group had the wheat beer that was brewed on site and liked it. Two of us shared a flight that included a stout, amber ale, kombucha and cider. I honestly can't recall which were brewed by Jobsite, but I think the amber and stout were. Neither was great. The amber was too bitter for my taste. The kombucha was just plain nasty. We all agreed, even the person who brews for a hobby said she's had much better kombucha at her beer club. The cider was the clear winner, but it was rather tasteless. It needed more fruit or something. So, while it's good to have an alternative to Black Swan in town, I hope the brewers here get better product soon. I'd go back for the pizza, but not for the beer.

What a gem in Goderich!…read more The Hubster and I came for the beers and stayed for the games (and the beers). This is a fantastic small brewery with incredible beers and very friendly staff. We ordered a flight and sat down at a picnic table with a crokinole board on it. We finished the flight quickly, as every single beer was excellent in it. Have you ever had a flight where you liked every single one? Of course you haven't. That's impossible. But every beer was distinct and great. We made our choices and ordered our favourites in pint form, then in tallboy and giant can form for home. We had the greatest time and I'm going to spend the whole summer lobbying my local bars to start carrying the brand.

Amazing in-house beer & cider selection on tap, great atmosphere, and so cool that you get to walk around inside to see the brewery process. Definitely check out their weekday specials. $20 is such a value for a meal and 20oz pint of beer (or if you don't drink, you can get just the food special for $18). Do stop by their merch store too - they've got canned drinks and other Cowbell products !

It's a beautiful large building! Well kept and clean! Our server, Jessie, did a great job informing us of the menu and specials. She was professional and personable! We ordered pretzel bites as an appetizer and adult beverages. I ordered their IPA. The pretzel bites were kind of chewy and the mustard sauce was in between. Not sure exactly what they were trying to do with it. It wasn't too sweet and it wasn't too hot. I really was not impressed that much with the IPA, I ordered another just to make sure, same results. My wife's Buffalo ranch pizza was large and well appointed; however, we just weren't sure about the flavors. My fish and chips was huge! I really enjoyed the fish! Must say the coleslaw left me scratching my head and the french fries were lacking something. Again, Jesse did a great job, she was the highlight of her visit!

Loved that they served complimentary Taro chips too. We also enjoyed a dinner at the Hessenland Inn dining room - especially next to their window over looking their pool & gardens. The sunshine through the stained glass panelling made the ambiance so enjoyable! PORK SCHNITZEL (5/5) - enormous portion of schnitzel and loved the thinner breading they had. The red cabbage is so addicting - savoury & sweet! Their spatzle is probably the best I've had too - golden edges with a new chew to it and loved that slight eggy buttery taste. BEEF ROULADEN (4/5) - it was a nice beef roll type dish! The gravy complimented this slightly drier preparation of meat. It also came with that delicious red cabbage & spatzle. I also loved that we got to walk around and explore their grounds after - my favourite being their private beach access!
