A very different experience from the other Craft brewery in Sebastian. No food (just a food truck outside); the beer I tried, Assimilator Doppelbock, was good but there were fewer choices of brewed on site beers; no distinctive ambiance, more of a "bar" feeling than a craft brewery. Not a bad choice but not the best. read more

Service is fantastic! Very friendly and def small town feel. Incredible brews and they're not afraid to try and offer different variety of beers...not the same old stuff. Great people, great owners. Pat and Angie are excellent!! They bring in various and delicious food vendors frequently, also there's a pizza place practically next door. They have music, games, activities, get togethers and I just learned this today, they allow well-behaved dogs inside. I'll be bringing my pups in soon to chill and have a couple beers! See y'all soon! Oh, and undoubtedly THE BEST brewery in the area! ...a MUST VISIT if your into craft brews! read more

**INITIAL REVIEW** When it comes to breweries in Sebastian, most people might know about Pareidolia Brewing Company because it is officially the city's first brewery and it is located right near the heart of communal activity events (Riverview Park). However, Sebastian has two breweries. Just north of "Downtown Sebastian," Mash Monkeys Brewing stands like an outcast sentinel. Though not as "popular" as Pareidolia, Mash Monkeys Brewing - which I will shorthand simply to Mash Monkeys for the remainder of this review - seems to be more accepted by the locals. Maybe it is because it is outside of the hustle and bustle of the tourist circle that Downtown Sebastian brings. Though an address is provided, Mash Monkeys seems to have been made from the front lobby area of an automotive service building. Maybe that is why the "garage part" of the building still operates as a brake service. There really isn't anything special to distinguish how it looks on the outside. No fancy-schmancy decor. No biergarten. The only give-away that makes note of Mash Monkey's location is their sign overwhelming the brake service business under them. Upon entering Mash Monkeys, you can tell the setting is quite minimalist as if it were part of a residential area bar. There is a L-shaped bar to the left of the entrance, a pattering of tables and chairs in the sit-down area flanked by a foosball table and dart boards. Nothing that really pops, but does have a simplistic home feel to it. The bartender, Danielle (I think that's her name) was very kind and helped me in choosing a brew from their list. I opted for the No. 139 Peach Cider. It was a light cider with minute flavors of peach in it. Very good, but I didn't drink all of it as I was nursing my drinking from previous breweries I visited earlier. I do wish their printed taplist mentioned, or was more clear if it did mention, if a particular brew was from another brewery. No. 139 Peach Cider is from Wölffer Estate Vineyard up in New York. If I knew that, I would have gotten something else. I really wanted to try a brew made in house. Mash Monkeys doesn't have a food menu, but according to a flyer hanging on the bathroom wall, they featured food trucks on certain dates along with live entertainment. When I was there, it happened to be a taco truck. Ultimately, this was a fantastic initial visit to Mash Monkeys. Got to know some people, got to try out a new brew, and checked in via the Treasure Coast Wine, Ale, and Spirits Trail and Untappd. One thing that Mash Monkeys has over their other brewery neighbor, their location is verified on Untappd. For an initial visit and because I did not have an official Mash Monkeys brew, I am giving them three out of four stars. When I come back, I will try one of their in-house brews and if it is good, I'll bump up the review by one more star. And if subsequent visits are just as good on average, Mash Monkeys will receive their fifth star for consistency. read more

Few other beverage options if you're not into beer. Friendly patrons. Will go again. I would recommend painting the walls, the color is quite drab. read more

The first of our four stops going to Sebastian and Vero Beach to check out their brewery offerings... I would surmise this place as the "greasy spoon" style brewery. Rustic, the bar pretty much anchors the location, and on a Saturday afternoon, the local brew flies were bellied up to the bar. I will say that the one bartender was doing an absolute banging job taking care of everyone, and though I only had one beer at this place, I enjoyed it immensely. I will also admit, I would have graded the vibe a bit more lower if it weren't for the friendly patrons at the bar. It was a very nice way to start our self-guided tour. read more

Mash Monkeys is a decent hang-out. What keeps it from being merely a local, nondescript bar in a small town is the fact they are a brewery producing solid beer. We stopped in Sebastian as we were making the rounds to some of the breweries in Vero Beach and Melbourne. We were told about Mash Monkeys and decided to add to our list of stops. My friends and I enjoyed the pool table and dartboard while having some beers that felt very German in style and taste. The Kleinstadt was a good German-style lager that I ordered. Amongst the other breweries on the Treasure and Space Coasts of Florida, there isn't too much distinguishing Mash Monkeys (outside of the name). We almost missed the spot since the building's location tends to blend with the surroundings. From the outside, it just looks like any other bar that you would find in a small town. Apart from the fermentation tanks behind the bar, you wouldn't have thought the place housed a brewery, as the look is very plain and non-assuming. The feel is more of a local bar that makes beer in-house than a brewery with a taproom. But Mash Monkeys is worth checking out if you're a craft beer drinker looking to check out an unvisited brewery taproom and check in some beers on Untappd. read more

2nd time visiting, the beers here are so good. They have a little bit of everything for everyone. Ambiance is great, darts, pool table and awesome music playing. The staff is always friendly and service is great. Everyone is super knowledgeable about the beers and you can tell they take pride in what they do. Make sure to stop by when visiting Sebastian. read more

I like Mash Monkeys. They are a slightly different and refreshing change of pace kind of brewery. The beers, as advertised, tacked toward Scottish and German varieties. There is a wide selection of beers including some that were outside those varieties as well. The gents at the bar were helpful and appeared to be part of the business (by that I mean owners or Brewers). They were helpful and patient. If I lived in the area, this place would be on my regular circuit. You might know my take on reviewing beers... it's about taste and we all have slightly (or radically) different tastes. But here are my takes... We did a large flight (more of a sampler consisting of the following on the board at the time: 1,2,5,6,7,10,11,12) - The Red is sweet and super malty - The Acqua Pazza IPA is a classic IPA, with a round finish - The Black Out Chocolate Porter is not as chocolate as expected - The Pilsner is crisp with a touch of hops - The Einsfach Hefe is light and easy to drink with a slightly yeasty finish - The Wheatbeater was surprisingly good. Described as fruity, it is all that with its cherry and grape notes read more

Great time here! Had a bunch of options aside from their beer, darts and pool, and ability to order from the Italian restaurant across the parking lot who would deliver to you. Service was awesome and you could order a flight of 2-7 beers! The triple ipa was awesome! read more

Despite living in a small town, we have an amazing new brewery with some of the best owners. I've been twice. The first time I came with my kids (hey! Family friendly!!) and this past time I came with my husband. Pat remembered me from the first visit. Even remembered my name! That is what I want from a local place. Somewhere I feel comfortable and safe going with my kids, my husband, or even by myself. It's not pretentious and they make an effort to answer any questions you may have. I had a lot! They have a great selection of brews they make in house as well as quite a few guest taps. My favorite is their Side Boob Belgian Wit and a guest brew passion fruit cider. I'm looking forward to making many new friends, memories and trying new brews! read more

Excellent service, nice people, great beverages and dog friendly. Very welcoming to out of towners.

First time visit while we were in the area. A basic brewery with limited seating. Had a nice variation of beers, and a nice wine menu, Service was excellent and the women serving were friendly and welcoming. There are pool tables, which we utilized, as well as darts, so there are things to do while drinking. Am enjoyable time. read more

Very neat local brewery. Huge selection and a food truck outside. Very fun place to hang out and have a few brews.

Closed on Tuesdays. Luckily Pareidolia is open and right down the street. We have tried Mash Monkeys before and they have always had solid beers. Yelp please update their hours. read more

Yet another really good brewery in IRC. We love stopping by on our way down south, it's a good hangout and their bartenders are always very personable and fun to talk to. They know a lot about the area and help us find other fun things to do, as well as always deliver great beer at good prices. read more

Great local brewery. Would recommend strongly. A must visit when in Sebastian, FL. We took some beer home too!!

Just found this new brewery in Sebastian.. ..great choices and so delicious! Don't miss this local jewel. read more

Located conveniently on US 1, new brewery has a fun laid back feel, with lots of windows. I like it bright. Most importantly the beer is very good, nice variety of their beers and some guest beers on tap. Free darts and pool tables is a nice touch. One of the owners, Patrick, was serving the day we went. Great guy, super personable. If you are looking to try a cool brew place, this is a must try. No food is available besides chips, but bring whatever you like in to eat. Again the beer is a can't miss. read more

Ok to be fair we went around 2 pm on a Saturday... the place has a weird vibe. The music is playing softly in the background and the conversation is low. It is super quiet like a library. There are a lot of beers to select from so we tried a few. I always go with a lighter beer and had the Hefe and Something Light Kolsch. Both were good. My boyfriend does darker and did the Barfight Irish Red and then the very popular Acqua Pazza. He said they were ok but carry a homebrew aftertaste. I am not sure exactly what that means. The staff was not super friendly, and the patrons all kept to themselves, Not someplace I could see myself hanging out at read more

They make the best beer in Sebastian,FL, without a doubt. If you want great beer in the area...go to Mash Monkey.

Whenever I go to a different city, I always try as many local breweries as possible. We were in Sebastian for the night so I googled breweries in Sebastian and a few were listed. Due to it's unique name I decided that this was the one I wanted to try. From the moment I walked in, I knew that I had made a good choice. The beer list had something to please every palate. The bartenders were extremely pleasant and helpful. I will DEFINITELY be returning whenever I am in town! read more

Beer is good, no food or snackage makes it a 3 star. Darts and pool is free which is great! Bartender didnt seem too motivated, we had to go to bar for refills rather than her check. I always feel a good bar will keep the drinks full at a table in my opinion and never let customers sit dry. read more

Great place to hang out. Staff is friendly and helpful explaining their craft beers. We enjoy ending our day on the boat or motorcycle here. We really enjoy the fact that you can purchase their beers to take home. read more
