But the beer is everything you came for. I love this brewery. It's clean, well lit, spacious, and it's almost always spot on. The novelty of dining at a brewery is that you are in for a treat most often. From the sample flights of malted goodness to the homegrown novelty of picking up merchandise with your favorite brewery on it for bragging rights later Is a complete lure But Old Nation does something different. They put a lot of thought into their menus and deliver some great choices. I would invite you to check out their menu online. I've not been able to discern which dish or sandwich I've had is better than the other. It's that good. And for me it's M43. The smoothest beer I've ever had.

I grabbed a pint and sat a spell and then took-away a growler of The Bishop (PB&J Porter?). It was really really good! I didn't try the food but I'm absolutely wanting to head back here. What I loved was the overflow room off the entrance. They had 8-12 picnic tables set up for their busy times that were pour-room adjacent. I saw some table games as I walked through to the main bar. So far this is one of my 5 favorite breweries in state offering great beer and a cool space(s) to enjoy said beer.

I suggested another place closer to the hotel with much better reviews for next year dinner before our meeting so I don't have to come back here. Many in our group agreed.

I've have their pizza a couple of times and highly recommend it! The restaurant itself is kind of small, which means it can feel a bit crowded some nights. One fun aspect of Dark Horse, however, is that the walls (and ceilings!) are lined with custom mugs, each belonging to a Dark Horse regular. This gives the bar a special charm that makes it feel unique. Something to note is that the service can be pretty slow when they're busy.

I feel that somehow their food is overlooked and should not be. They have a great menu. My favorite, all of their pizza selections.

Check out all of the fun events because there is something for everyone.

I haven't been to a Jolly Pumpkin in years, and when I saw it was near the hotel I was staying at,…read moreI knew I had to go back to see if it was as good as I remember it. I was with some friends and old coworkers when dining here, so I wasn't dining alone today. I was surprised there wasn't more people here since it was happy hour, but such is life. I ended up getting a hamburger with truffle fries as an upgrade since it sounded tasty. The burger was fantastic, though I wish it was a bit bigger. Truffle fries were good and it came with a really tasty dipping sauce. Our server was good but she did disappear for a while and when she did come back, we all asked for additional beverages. The place is clean with plenty of seating inside and I'm sure outdoor seating when the weather gets nicer. I'm not a huge drinker so I know they have a good beer selection, but didn't order since I wasn't really feeling it. Overall a great experience with a great menu, would return in the future.

Nate and I stopped in for a quick drink and a snack while in town and were seated right away in the bar area. I think they are pretty well known for their pizza, but we just went with an order of the buffalo chicken dip, which was bubbling hot and a large portion (we had plenty of leftovers). It was quite salty, but I guess that's to be expected. The chips were fresh and crispy and I liked that they give you some crostini as well. The drink prices were wild -- I got a large (maybe 20 oz) seltzer for $3!! I couldn't believe it. Service was friendly, basketball games were on the TVs, and I liked our visit. I think we'll be back next time we're in town.

I'm not a huge whiskey guy so I'm sure a "snobby" person may have a different opinion but it's most definitely worth a shot during your visit. The owner, who was working behind the bar, was extremely personable and seemed to make quick friends with every guest that came in. You could tell he takes a lot of pride in his craft. I will be back and will make sure I bring others with me to experience this hidden gem.

When you pull into the parking lot, it can be hard to tell which building the brewery was in. Particularly since there was snow covering the signs.

He was so friendly and relatable. We learned all about his farm, his family, and his animals. Love it! He introduced us to his amazing black garlic gin. I mean it was delicious!!! He made a great bloody Mary with it, and it was one of the best I have had. He also sent us home with some garlic and horseradish!
