I was a regular at Block 3 when I lived in Waterloo. Well, if I'm honest, I was there all the time…read moreand they should have charged me rent. You might think beer was my primary motivation, and in the beginning it was. Block 3 is a small batch craft brewery that delivers on tasty beer. They generally have ten to twelve beers on tap ranging from lagers, ales, sours and sometimes a stout. They are all delicious in their own right although drinking barrel aged fruited sours is an acquired taste in my book, but trust me try them and you may learn to love them. But why else should you go? There is limited food (it's a brewery not a restaurant), no TV's to watch the game, a steady stream of classic rock playing in the background, kids running around and a few dogs to greet you on the way in. To make matters worse the cell reception is awful, my wife always had a hard time reaching me. Hmm, maybe that's not all bad... What kind of place is this, anyway? It's a modern twist on an old fashioned FAMILY oriented brewery, that's what! There are plenty of board games to play, the local regulars are always happy to share some stories, and the staff are the coolest people around. They have a great Mug Club and if you are lucky you get your own hand-thrown pottery mug with your name on it! Very cool... As I mentioned in one of my check-ins, Block 3 is a benchmark craft brewery experience. I can't recommend this place highly enough,

Great addition to the area. Walk in and go downstairs…read more Nice selections, plus games available.

So here I am at Royal City Brewing and brewery #316ish. I say "ish" because I seem to be one off…read moresomewhere along the line. Oh well! RCB is in a strip mall and parking is at a premium. It was a busy place when I walked in and fortunately has food as I needed some badly. They have a lot of beers and a few ciders on tap, I counted 17 today. I went with a flight of four, which felt very restrictive and not very inclusive. The Berserker raspberry lemon sour was up first. This had a very light color and good flavor to it. The flavors worked together very well. The Luminance DIPA was recommended by the charming young lady next to me at the bar. I hadn't chosen a fourth beer and told the beer tender I'd take his choice in the matter. He went with the luminance. And I'm glad he did. Nice flavor throughout. Solid beer here! The Absolute Elsewhere maibock was a good example of the style. Fairly light and easy to drink overall. Last, maybe, was the smoked honey brown ale. I ordered this since SWPFTD loves browns and reds. This was pretty tasty and I think SWPFTD would have enjoyed it. If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand. Yes, you will need to read into it a little to get the joke but I have confidence in you! I hope my confidence is not misplaced. I was hungry since I hadn't eaten since I as on the plane. The schnitzel sandwich with the duck fat fries was very good!

I've been here a couple of times and frankly unsure why I don't love it more! The fries were ok,…read morebut the beer is definitely pleasant. I guess I am not a fan of the vibes, as I do prefer more of a pub style brewery than one that gives hipster vibes. The service is fine as well. It's definitely a Guelph must visit but not one that I'm nuts about.

This was my first time visiting this place. They have a nice terrace set up so we were glad to have…read morea seat outside. This is exclusively a brewery so they do not seem to serve food themselves but have other restaurant pop ups and encourage to bring your own food! To know more about their pop ups follow their instagram. We were excited for the Oyster popup from Island Oysters paired with a laza kombucha and a baby thunder pale ale. The service was attentive although note you need to order at the bar.

I'm unhappy with the service I received there. I had been give a fifty dollar gift card to…read moreBrothers Brewing Company and they only provided four cans of beer (or I could sit down and drink four pints by myself in the middle of the afternoon - that was the other option). For a retirement gift, my boss had bought $50 gift certificates to six micro breweries in Guelph, which has been great. We've had dinner at some, but at others, I have just bought cans of beer to go (usually I put in a bit more cash and get 18 cans). This place must not have had a proper gift certificate, because I just had a "pint card" (4 beers value - $34) and the balance was rung up as 2 X 473mL lagers, for about $50. I explained to the server that I was sure this was meant to represent a $50 gift card and she said it was just a pint card and my boss must have drank the two tall boys there (while touring around Guelph to get gift cards at 2pm). Anyway, I finally took the 4 cans, which were $34 plus tax, although for $30, you could get 6 cans. I'm probably going on too long about this, but I feel like I was ripped off and this is my only way to deal with it, emotionally. Anyway, I will never go back there again, and please, never buy a gift certificate from this establishment.

Ahh! Last brewery of the day for us, as we like to close our day with great notes…read more Wayne, who owns the brewery and his own personal collection of beer mugs and glasses is an amazing person & host! Drinking beer at the bar- table while he keeps you company and keep offering you samples( without anything in return) makes you experience pleasure. Now the beer: IPAs are great. I loved Hopposites Attract the most, there was an charity beer, the earning from which 100% goes families with cancer kids, i loved the idea, that with the right intentions, one can help the society by any means! Be it the beer. Sunkiss is their regular IPA it was citrus and refreshing. For snacks are usual but very cheap, not a rip-off! So the overall experience is excellent. Coming back here soon!!!!!

And munches. And pool table. The folks are very friendly and knowledgable. I liked one because they actually brew their beer here rather than having a showcase store and brew it elsewhere. Although I had too much to drink in one sitting, it was great and we went to nap at a park nearby afterwards.

I left with a nice glass and some beer and the merch is really cool along with the discs they sell for disc golf! We went for lunch so there weren't many food options other than snacks, so we got some Grilled Brie Cheese Sandwiches which were fine, I mean, Brie is always amazing, but it was just missing something whether it was honey and nuts, cranberry sauce, ketchup etc. The beer was great as expected. We all got flights and enjoyed all of our drinks. Favourites included the Crispy Forever,, S.P.A., and Helles Lager. Fair prices here and a nice atmosphere. Our server was soooo nice too, she heard that I was skeptical on trying the County Brown Ale so she so kindly brought me a little sample to try during our tasting! I'm not big on porters/ stouts and can be picky with dark brown ales, but I very much enjoyed this one, so thank you for the taster! Will be back in the summer hopefully :)
