Great flights and great beer! This is a great place to check out and grab some drinks! They have free popcorn and some board games to play while you hang out. Good food good vibes good times!
This was my first time to this microbrewery and it was on my Rochester to-do list for a long time. We tried the Hawaiian ice tea seltzer and the Chocolate Cherry Stout. The Hawaiian ice tea seltzer tasted great, not very sweet. I would give it a 4/5. The Chocolate Cherry Stout was a little underwhelming, way too sweet and somewhat off-putting. I would give it 1.5/5. They have limited seating but we didn't have any trouble getting a table on a cold Saturday night. Also, the major drawback was the lack of any kind of food or snacks. Considering that they are open till 10 pm but no food/snacks of any sort was kinda annoying. Hopefully that changes.
Pretty good beer with a nice relaxed atmosphere. They don't do flights, but they do tasting pours, so you can get as many as you want. I really liked the sour cherry beer and the French toast stout was pretty good too. I would definitely come here again for a drink. Not a ton of indoor seating, but a few tables outside too.
Great place to enjoy a beer with friends & family. Good selection of beer, friendly service, and quaint tasting room. Located in the heart of Rochester NY, parking on street. Cheers to good beer
Great small brewery on Park Ave. Gorgeous area. Building is cool, and well done inside. Looking forward to when they get their patio seating and music configured. Personally didn't like the selections of beer this time, but have been here in the past where I enjoyed all the beers on tap. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area. Parking is a challenge. Just have to know the area to get a spot on the side streets. Owners are always friendly to speak to, and learn about their brewing process.
On a nice kind of warm May night, the wife and I stopped in to the new Iron Tug Brewing location on Park Avenue. What an awesome spot! I live in Greece near their old location but believe me - being on Park Avenue kicks butt over being on Ridge Road. There are three or four tables outside on the sidewalk so we managed to get one and I ordered a New England IPA and an Imperial Stout for the wife. Everyone was friendly - from the customers to the bartenders. One of the owners told us that they are going to take out the two gardens in the front of the building and put in some more patio space for more tables. They can't have enough patio space on a nice day on Park Avenue! Their beer is great - the location is superb - this is a great place to go! Go check it out while you can still get a table!
Great brews here! It is kind of the place where you can come and just relax and have great brews! This location seems like a historic building, like an old prison building. I will definitely be back!
Had their Festbier and Black Current Mint Sour. I was really impressed with the festbier, it was so smooth and flavorful; a great medium bodied beer. The black current mint sour was also flavorful, I just wasn't a fan of the mint aspect. Would definitely go back and try their other sours. Definitely a new go to spot since it's so close and fantastic! Had several 4 tops outside, lots of indoor seating and the beertender was great!
Randomly decided to stop here while walking on Park. Got a tasting of three of their beers and I wish I remembered which ones I tried because they were all pretty good. One thing I wish they would of done was write down somewhere the names of the beers we got for tasting since it was hard to remember which ones we were trying. I also wished they had a choice to do a beer flight instead of different prices for tastings.
The drink was amazing. I got a flight of the hazy ipa, NE triple IPA, the cherry sour and the amber ale. The bartender was very nice and personable. And the ambiance was very chill! Def a spot I would like to return to and some point! read more

Great beer with a flagship IPA, and a Tug Lite Lager, 2-3 sours on tap among other styles. 10 taps in all, a bunch of cans for items on tap or no longer get on tap. A limited selection of cider, mixed drinks, and wine. read more

I stopped in to get the new Sours that were released. I have only enjoyed the Sugar Plum one so far, but I had to write to share how great it is! It's the right level of tart and leaves a little lingering of sweetness. It's soooo good!!! I am excited to try the others!! read more

So nice to have a brewery on this side of town! A wide variety of beers are available. I chose a flight of four of the darker beers. Everything, including the flights, is very reasonably priced. As expected, there were a few brews I really liked (the red ale was my favorite) and a few I didn't like quite as much. But my least favorite was one my boyfriend loved. To each their own. The service was good. The old firehouse (a building I'm partial to) has a great atmosphere. We didn't get any food, but the pizzas smelled delicious. I really only withheld a star because the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner (seat of the toilet was clean, bowl was dirty. Floor needed mopping. Hair in the sink). read more

I love to support local! Small, but very well crafted menu of microbrews. Owned and operated by 2 brothers. Definitely worth checking out. No food prepared on site, but there is a good empanada and sandwich shop (Bomberos) right next door that you can bring food in from. read more

A wonderful addition to the Maplewood neighborhood, Iron Tug Brewing is a small microbrewery that offers a limited food selection. Their NE IPAs were outstanding, and their beer flights were very popular. The Guinness inspired stout was also impressive. Unfortunately, their "artisan" pizza left much to be desired, as the dough was bland. However, the charcuterie board more than made up for it with sausages from Swan Market. It is definitely worth visiting. read more

This brewery carries beers to appease both hop & non-hop lovers alike. I would recommend for you to try the Irish Stout and the Summer Ale. The complexity of flavor in the stout is unique and the balance of hops in the summer ale make both of these brews crowd pleasers to say the least. read more
