The history behind the cidery is actually really cool so suggest you take a walk around look at the pictures on the wall, and then the names of some of the cider will make more sense. The gentleman who is assisting was really insightful and helping me select some sliders. They have a large selection that ranges from super dry to super fruity. They do have a small selection of guest tap beers as well in case you have somebody in your party who prefers beer. They have several bottles and cans. You can purchase as well with the average bottle being around $20. While they do have some indoor seating, the majority of their seating is outside and they've got a huge space where you can bring a large group and relax. It does appear that they have a tap bar outside, but it wasn't open when we were there. They do have a kitchen, but it is only open on the weekends. I started with the blackberry cider - fruity, a little sweet but full of blackberry flavor. I then switched to the ginger and it's like drinking ginger ale almost! It was so good I got two bottle to take home! It is located in a neighborhood and right across the street from a park area. This also means that parking can be a little bit challenging to find.

They incorporate a lot of historic Braddock art on the walls which is a nice touch. There is plenty of seating in the main taproom and the side room. The beers are always good at this spot. My favorites from them are the General Braddock's, Garden Party, and DoubleMex. They have a parking lot and plenty of street parking. Their sister restaurant, Braddock Public House, is right down the street.

It's not your standard open space brewery but the ambience is nice for a casual afternoon or post work gathering. Plenty of tables for a medium size groups.

Overall it's a nice place and I suppose someone's beer taste buds may differ from mine but usually I'm able to find these one beer I like. I was lucky they did have 1/2 pours at least

This team of folks not only has an amazing selection of beers, they learn what their customers like, and are easily able to help you try new stuff without getting a dud. Someone else commented that they were upset at the prices here - I'll be honest, I've never found their prices to be any more expensive than anywhere else I've bought premium / craft beers from. Actually, many of their local craft beers are priced the same as I've bought them direct from the brewery! They need our support during these challenging times! They are caring and careful - always masked up, distanced, and with hand sanitizer at the ready. I've never felt any trepidation when I've gone to buy beer there. They really are the best!

The best thing about this place is Sam. The worst thing about this place is also Sam…read more What was great was that Sam made me feel at home and treated me like someone he had known for a long time. He took me to the back of his warehouse, gave me a free beer to drink, and engaged me in plenty of conversation. At one point, though, he said, "You look oriental, but you also look American." I'm pretty sure he wasn't meaning for it to be offensive, and I just discounted it as his being an old man who didn't know it was no longer politically correct to say things like that. This is not why I recommend against Caruso's, however. The reason why I'll never go there again is because Sam knowingly sold me expired beer. I was on my way back from the North Side to the East End where I live and after seeing these good reviews, I decided to stop by. I wanted a case of Yuengling, but Sam said, "Why don't you try this instead," and popped open a fresh bottle of Castello, an Italian beer. He had me drink it, all the while espousing its comparative taste to Yuengling at a cheaper price point. It certainly tasted alright, and a case of it was a couple dollars less than what Yuengling was going for. Since the Castello tasted fine, I ended up buying a case of it on Sam's recommendation. A few days later when I opened the box and drank a couple of the beers, however, I noticed that they tasted funny. That's when I looked at the label and saw how each of the bottles had its "sell by" date marked out in black Sharpie. You could see the numbers underneath the Sharpie, and the dates were for well over two years ago. So basically, Sam had convinced me to buy something he hadn't been able to sell, knowing that I lived in the East End and probably wasn't going to visit again anyway. Stale beer aside, there's another big reason not to go to Caruso's: Their prices are steep--$24 for a case of Yuengling. While Sam might be a more charming character than the young folks at my neighborhood distributor Pistella's, at least I know that Pistella's has significantly lower prices and actually has enough customers and product turnover that they won't purposely sell me something that's not fresh.

It helps that Caruso's is is rock throwing distance from my house, but even if it weren't, I would…read morestill love this place. Sam, the owner, has been running this family business since 1968. If it's your first visit, he'll give you a great history of the neighborhood and show you a bunch of old photos of the place. He keeps a good selection of beer in stock, mostly cases but sometimes can sell you a 12 pack. Anything that he doesn't have, he'll special order for you and call you when it's in. There's always a few choices of gluten free beers and ciders for those celiacs amongst us. The hours are Thursday - Saturday from 2 - 7pm, although sometimes Sam stays later if he's busy. He doesn't have a huge online presence, so give him a call if you want something special or have questions about the hours. He's a total delight.
