They have everything you'd need to make beer or wine at home. They have the Mr. Beer kits, glass bottles, and a lot of other extract flavors to choose from. Then they also have grains there too if you're into the all grain recipes. My husband is he beer maker so I don't even know what all I was looking at in there. I didn't know there was such a think as wine making at home. They sell the grapes there in huge kits that has everything you need to make wine. They have all kinds of whites, reds and blends. They also have some premium quality grapes too. I had sticker shock because the wine kits are anywhere from $60-$300 however they make 30 bottles so it actually breaks down to a reasonable price. Wether you're a master or newbie, they'll have what you need. Random: They also sell farm fresh eggs for $3 a dozen. I just happened to see the sign as we were leaving so I didn't find out anything about who raises them, what they feed their chickens, etc. But I certainly will ask when I go back.

The enterence is the backside of the garage, in the backyard. Once you see the prices, you won't even care. For what I bought, his prices are the same as preshipping costs of the biggest online homebrew store. Getting it today and not paying shipping? Huge plus. He was extremely knowledgeable too. I've been brewing for over 10 years, and I learned about a years worth of knowledge in 20 minutes there. He was also VERY helpful. I wanted to try and clone a seasonal beer at Blind Tiger, and he texted the master brewer to find out what base extract to use! I was dead set on using a "wrong" extract, so the sale was going to happen. He truly cares about his customers and the hobby.

However when I drove up everything is well advertised and I was directed exactly where to go. The shop is in his garage and upon entering I was kindly greeted by the shop keeper! He was very friendly while being professional and clearly very knowledgeable about everything home brewing. He has a wide selection of yeasts and I suspect just about any piece of equipment you'd need for beers, wines, even liquor distilling. I was going in for some mead supplies myself but now I suspect Ill try my hand at beer brewing. -side note his prices are great and he accepts card!

It is spring so maybe they just have not kicked on the ac yet. They had a nice bar area and a little room with some games. We opted for the patio because it was a nice day. The trees were blooming and beautiful. There were also umbrellas on the tables for some additional shade. They were slow on a Friday during happy hour. Our food took over 30 min to come out. We were wondering if they forgot to put the order in or something. Once it came out, the chili cheese tots were just tots. The bartender was kind and fixed it right away. Once all our food came out, it was delicious. The burger was a basic smash burger and paired well with the cream ale I also ordered. The chili on the tots was phenomenal but they could have used more cheese. Overall not a bad experience but probably would not return.

My husband and I both got a flight to start. Of note, they include 5 pours in their flights vs the standard 4. My favorites were the Mane Event (Helles) and the Arc of Acceleration (Hazy IPA). The helles was a light, sip-able beer that you could do a few of. The hazy ipa was a little higher octane but was also a lighter hazy in comparison of others I've had in the past. My husband really enjoyed the Hoptify American IPA in addition to the hazy I had. They have snacks for purchase but allow you to bring in outside food if you wish.

I enjoyed the musician despite the large crowd and the challenge of hearing him over the many conversations. Eventually, the crowd thinned out, and I was able to better enjoy the music. Overall, it's a nice brewery.

We ended up just getting a snack, Gouda Mac and cheese bites. They were pretty salty which took away for the flavor inside. Dunking in the RAD AF (one of their beers) ranch helped it out.

First of all, looking at my last review I realized that the Rad AF was the first IPA I really fell in love with and really changed the way I viewed IPAs in general - now they are my primary beer of choice which would have shocked 2019 Sarah to hear. The things I said in my last review still ring true as the beer at City Barrell anywhere you get it whether it's in the taproom or at the liquor store is pricey. The difference now is that everything everywhere is pricey and I maintain that their beers are still amongst the very best in town, so in short, it's honestly probably a slightly better value now than it was in 2019 when it's all said and done. Now onto the food. You're going to find bar-fare here and they do it really well. We had cheese curds and I had a sandwich and "fancy fries" all were delicious. Next time I'm going to do their appetizer platter and just enjoy all the bar food deliciousness. What put this into 5 star territory for me though was our server - she was so nice and welcoming - it was honestly just one of the best casual dining experiences I've had in a long time.
