Thankfully, we had food in our mouths so we didn't have to pretend to laugh at the comedians. I got a Mexican type beer. Luke warm. Wasn't good. Daughter and hubby got a peach sangria they both liked. No A/C Thursday night. Was there for the comedy show and we left after the 3rd comedian. Not our type of comedy at all. Stopped in Friday night. The A/C was on. Thankfully. Too bad they had the door open. You couldn't hear the inside musician over the bands playing outside. I ordered nothing. Hubby and daughter ordered the peach sangria again. Got the wrong peach drink. The bartender joked about so many peach drinks. I don't know if there are so many clarify. One drink and out the door since we couldn't hear the live music inside. It's an okay place. But people sitting and drinking need food.

We did especially enjoy a chocolate/cherry stout they had on tap. Wanted to buy a couple cans to go but it was tap only. Barkeep told us about the Growlers they had to go. So we did. Win-Win. Ambiance is pretty cool. They have a store front with a bar and then an entertainment venue in the back with live music.

Excellent selection of beers, especially if you enjoy the fruit-oriented brews…read more Stopped in recently for a quick taste of what they had to offer. When I saw the pineapple jalapeño option, I was all in. A great taste with just the right amount of sweet when you initially sip and a subtle kick of jalapeño on the back end. Others I was with enjoyed their choices, too. Friendly and accommodating staff with quick service. So glad we stopped in, as it was a short walk from our hotel and just what we all needed after our long drive to Norman from out of town. Be aware that food is not always available, so bring your thirst but not necessarily your appetite. Cheers!

There's a large outdoor space with picnic tables and huge indoor space. The staff was great, one gentleman in particular who was getting things set up for a private party. As I mentioned, we chose to come to The Standard specifically because they had actual food (vs just snack food like many breweries). Unfortunately, we arrived when the kitchen had closed to prep for the aforementioned private party. This meant a significant wait to even place an order for food. We tried to wait, but this was going to be a deal breaker for me; I was starting to feel ill from no food and beer tasting on empty stomach. Fortunately someone (owner? manager? or their best, kindest employee, I don't know), helped me out. I am so grateful. We stayed, and once the kitchen opened back up, my husband and son also ordered food -- the chicken and waffles were awesome. If we were locals, I imagine we'd enjoy many afternoons at the beer garden.

The only good thing besides the one Artisan European style dinner roll was the authentic Dosseldorf mustard. Entree I ordered was 1 Beef sausage and a Pork sausage. Both called a different name in German. I ordered Germain potatoes and Red Cabbage. My beef sausage was way over cooked my pork sausage was fine and I guess they were of average flavor. The German potatoes were flavorless and no where close to German. My redcabbage was good. I ordered Mushroom gravy on my sausages. If done right that gravy is very good. However, they made this gravy with canned mushrooms and instant brown gravy mix and was pretty much flavorless. My dinner came with a dinner roll. They placed it on my dinner plate in the gravy. Couldn't pick it up without getting gravy on my hand. My date ordered a Weinerschnizel. It was good but very over cooked they gave my red Cabbage to her. She didn't order it but it was big enough to share. She ordered Pommfrietes (seasoned French fries not really authentic Pommfrietes. They were not so great. Server was over worked as they were busy. We had to get up with drink glasses and go chase down water refills. They kept the glasses and about a minute later the waiter walk by with our water glasses and gave them to two other people at a different table. I bought him on the way back by our table and said excuse me but you just gave our water to that table up front. He said oh yes, I did. I suggested he retrieve the 2 glasses of water before they drank out of them. He did do that. Brought them. Back to our table without us knowing if they drank out of our glasses. It was not fresh, it was not authentic and it resembled German foods by was a bad representation. I won't be back. Restaurant was clean no low dinner music. Ambiance was lacking. Waiter was a nice young man but either timid or thought he should not talk loud enough he wouldn't disturb other customers by talking to us. Oh and instead of putting our butter on a small plate or dish. They put it on my dinner plate in the gravy. This place was definitely not a class place. Not that it had to be. However, for their moderately priced menu. It needed to have more class than this restaurant showed.
