    130 year old building
    William L.

    This brewery is in a 130 year old building. It doesn't look like much from the outside. Actually, it doesn't look like much on the inside either! But these guys brew really good beer, and that's the important thing. I tried the red ale and it was excellent. They have 12 different beers on tap. Also, they are expanding the taproom with more seating. Will definitely check back to see the new space and add another star.

    Drove down to Montgomery, MN to visit @montgomerybrewing . Located in a historic building, it is a cozy space with plenty of beer to try. I had great conversations with the beertender and the brewer. They are in the process of upgrading the brewhouse so keep an eye out for these folks who are not just pouring beers from the tap room, but also canning & distributing. I gave seven beers a try. Mind Bender: A kettle sour with fruit added including Cara Cara Orange, Tangerine, Pineapple, Passionfruit, and Blue Spirulina. Tart, but not warhead candy mouth puckering. A little sweetness that reminds you of sipping something of a tropical mimosa. Hubar: A big Triple IPA sitting at 10.22% ABV. It is a dark yellow hazy color that balances between the bitterness you want from an IPA, while having grapefruit juice and tangerine zest hop flavor. Sneaky drink for a beer over 10%. Peanut Buster Porter: I can't resist a Porter that tastes like peanut butter even if it was over a 100 degrees outside. A pitch black beer with sweet peanut butter flavor. The peanut butter flavor is closer to a Jif peanut butter than the organic or freshly ground PB. The beertender gave a sample of mixing this with the triple berry bomb and it was just like a PB&J! Hop Junkies: Nelson Sauvin: A Hazy New England IPA featuring one of my favorite hop varietals right now Nelson Sauvin. Limited amounts of white wine grape flavor, primarily expressing passionfruit and almost a gooseberry flavor / aroma. Bitter, but not palate crushing. Longball Lager: A crushable American Lager with more malt flavor than a lot of lagers. I get a medium bready malt note with low hop bitterness and flavor. A refreshing lager and a nice change of pace from all the other beers in my flight. Shelterbelt: A Brown Ale with a medium-light body with plenty of nutty / roasty flavors. A style that can not just warm you up with the malt flavors, but also go down easy when it's hot out without being heavy Triple Berry Bomb: A kettle sour with raspberry, blueberry & blackberry fruit additions and vanilla & lactose to provide a creamy / thicker body.

    These guys do beer well! Great beers and a casual down to earth atmosphere. They have some great sours and Hazys!. If you're looking for a brewery that offers more than just atmosphere and actually has great beers give Montgomery Brewery a try.

    Yesterday was my third or fourth ever visit to Montgomery and not much has changed. The beer is still excellent, staff is friendly and the owner is sitting amongst townies!! When I was greeted at the register thinking the fellow looked familiar from a facebook post, I asked "are you the brewer?!" He was, and I thought that was cool that he was pouring!! I asked both brewer Josh and beertender Alex what their current go-to's were? They both said the watermelon kolsch and the DIPA. I opted for the delicious Peanut Buster Porter and the slap the table tart Cherry Cheesecake!! Before I left I told Alex where I was headed, asking if he had any recommendations? He did, four in fact!! Thanks Montgomery for consistently brewing not good, but delicious beers that are poured by friendly staff!

    Friendly staff and a wide selection of beers on tap. From easy to drink ales to hazzy IPAs and a nice dark beer selection.

    We have been enjoying Montgomery Brewing beers for several years now thanks to their distribution through Hyvee and they rarely disappoint! With some extra time on a Saturday morning we decided to swing on by the brewery! The historic space is super quirky but also super fun! The staff was very nice and went over the top to ensure we enjoyed our selections. We spent a couple hours playing cards and sampling the menu and no beers failed! Better yet, they have begun serving made to order pizzas that were delish and hit the spot! If you are in the area, or looking for an easy day drive I highly recommend!

    I've heard about this brewery for about two and a half years because they have a peanut butter porter my husband absolutely loves, but we never really found a reason to visit until recently. I needed to find the spiciest pizza I could and the pizzeria down the street just so happens to make one. So they don't have a food menu at the brewery but seem to have food trucks that come out, but you can order pizza from Pizzeria 201 and bring your pies into the brewery to eat while you. I think we can all agree there's not many things that are a perfect combination as hot pizza and cold beer. They have a great selection of beers to choose from, you can also purchase some to bring home! Definitely worth the drive and we will be visiting again soon

    Local and low-key!

    You can't help but admire small-town places that would otherwise pass for "townie bars", but are still a welcoming and warm place for anybody who drops by. And hats-off to the folks who started a brewery in a town that hadn't seen one in over 100-years in an attempt to bring back some "heritage" while playing with fun flavors of brews! Let's be honest - it's a small space with two high-top barrel/tables, and seven sit-down tables. But on a frigid Sunday afternoon on a frosty February in Minnesota, in the middle of a pandemic filed with masks and social distancing, I found a laid-back and fun atmosphere...friendly tap-meisters and chatty locals sitting at nearby tables alike. Now for the beer... Today, there were a dozen beers on tap...from a brewery running a 1.5bbl system and providing crowlers to a ton of local distribution spots! Simply put, they brew like crazy, so the beer is always fresh. Today there were four hazy IPAs on tap, each with a twist on malt or hop balance. I might not have necessarily liked each variant, but I can definitely appreciate a variety. A sour weighing-in at 8% had a fruity and lactose hint, but still carries enough malt to balance it out. Lastly, a 12.3% barleywine that obviously spent some quality time in bourbon barrels gave light and boozy, yet not sweet-enough-to-call-the-dentist finish. If you're looking for a break from the run-of-the-mill taprooms in the Twin Cities Metro, Montgomery Brewing is worth the short trip south...if nothing just to give you a perspective to "recalibrate"...Prost!

    The staff was super friendly and engaging. Thank you, Cody! While they don't serve food, you can order from Pizzeria 201, some of the best pizza in Minnesota-- while you're there. The building is over 100 years old, and the home of the original Montgomery Brewery, so it is a rich in history and tradition. The Amber Ale comes from a recipe handed down from the original brewery. Worth the short drive from the metro or the Greater Mankato area.

    Beer flight!

    Montgomery Brewing Company is a cute brewery with friendly staff! We came here for the first time this past weekend and got a flight. All of their beers are good, but my favorite was the Peanut Buster Porter. Oh my gosh, this beer is LEGIT. If you like peanut butter like me, you will absolutely love this one. It's like you're drinking peanut butter in a glass. We had a growler with us and bought this beer to enjoy at home. We had the opportunity to chat with one of the managers there and get a behind-the-scenes look of their brewing process, too. Overall, great night! If I'm in the area again, I will definitely come back!

    Great little brewery! Worth the drive! The peanut buster porter is amazing! Staff is friendly too!

    While visiting New Prague, we had to stop by the brewery…read more They don't offer flights, but they do have 6oz pours. I would have preferred 4oz options for sampling, but it still worked out. I tried the Space Balls (Milk Stout), Bowcaster (Smoked Märzen), and Lemmiwinks (Berliner Weisse with Black Raspberry - Sour Ale). I also sampled my brother's Giesen Weisse (Hefeweizen). I'm not a big fan of sour ales and didn't realize a Berliner Weisse was a sour until after ordering. That said, it was milder than most sours I've had, and I managed to finish the full pour. Space Balls - Fantastic milk stout. Strong coffee notes up front, followed by chocolate on the finish. Smooth and rich mouthfeel. A+ Bowcaster - Smoked beers can easily go overboard and end up tasting like a campfire, but this one was well balanced. The smokiness enhanced the flavor rather than overwhelming it. Would pair perfectly with a burger or steak. A+ Giesen Weisse - Excellent Hefeweizen with classic banana notes. Super refreshing. I often recommend Hefeweizens to friends who think they don't like beer--this one would definitely win them over. Great brewery overall. I'd recommend it and would definitely return.

    A couple of friends and I swung in to here while stopping through New Prague. It seemed to be a…read moregood place for a beer. It was a Saturday night, so the place was a little packed, but plenty of room for everyone to move around. From the outside (in the photos), the decor and signage was pretty cool! Their outdoor patio looked like it would be a fun place to enjoy a beer on in the summer (not so much in this cold winter night). Once inside, the atmosphere was fun. People were enjoying their company and the beer, and there was a small food stand inside with a few options for Mexican food this night. We all grabbed a beer and I tried some Mexican street corn. It definitely complemented the dark Czech lager I drank! My friends had a hazy IPA they ordered twice, it was tasty! An all-around pleasant experience and good beer. I'd go back, but probably make it a warm weather stop next time to enjoy all of it fully, including having the garage doors open for that "ope -air" feel when it's nice.
