    NoFo is really neat place to stop an have a cold one. Basically super clean bar with incredible high ceiling area inside. Serving variety of beers and soft drinks. There was large group of hikers (coming from Blood Mountain, see separate review) that stopped here. Everyone enjoyed their drink with limited snack selection. Service was prompt. We ordered inisde and sat on the large patio outside area with our sweaty bodies. Tab noisy outside with the GA-400 traffic, but so nicely set up. We had dog too, who roamed around on the the patio. Family and dog friendly. Clean gender neutral bathrooms with individual seating, and shared common area to wash your hands. Conveniently located on GA-400, but you may need to do a U-turn to get here as GA-400 is divided highway. Lots of free parking.

    Great vibe, great people, great service, and great beer. They have so many taps with so many different options to choose from. They also have cocktails which all sounded delicious. But I stuck to a beer flight on this visit. They have a big tap room and plenty of seating both inside and outside. There's also a nice big parking lot with plenty of parking. It seemed like a food truck was pulling up when I was leaving. It was a great stop for me along my route. I'm not a local, but I'd definitely get the local vibe here and can see this being a cool hangout spot.

    Mexican lager & law abiding patriot sour- with a view!

    Conveniently located. Easily accessible. Plenty of outside space. Heaters on a cold day. Patio is HUGE. Food truck outside. Good beer inside. Need I say more?! Hopped on over on a cold day with the furry friend. Sat outside (dogs only allowed outside. I was pleased to see plenty of heaters and a fire pit. The layout was great! Lots of kids here so as well as dog friendly it is very kid friendly. I came by on a Sunday afternoon and they had a pizza food truck outside. Not sure if there is always a food truck but it seemed quite convenient! Beers were good, they even had cocktails on their menu. Will comeback to try their cocktails. Great selection of beer on tap! We tried the "law abiding patriot"- pomegranate, cranberry, cherry sour. I highly recommend! We also tried the Mexican lager, also good if you're looking for something light. QR codes were featured on all tables including a huge menu inside. They had plenty of cool swag/merchandise. Plenty of options. Overall a great neighborhood brewery. The only thing that would make this place even better is food on the menu. Can't wait to come back when the weather is better.

    This brewery did not disappoint! Atmosphere was cool and there was plenty of seating. Beer was good-I got the gose and my boyfriend got a flight with an NE IPA, Belgian blonde, Vienna lager, and honey wheat beers. He said all the beer was delicious. The only thing we wished they had was some more shade outside! Maybe some umbrellas on the front astroturf since it was super hot sitting in the sun.

    "All I need is a tasty wave and cool buzz" J. Spicoli ... NoFo delivers on a cool buzz... NoFo is a great local spot with a wide selection of tasty libations from light pilsners to dark liquor. With 17+ locally brews on tap they have something for everyone. Most nights they have a tasty food truck to enjoy as well. The patio area is perfect for a cool Georgia evening to chill and enjoy !!

    NoFo is exactly what this area needs! It's got a great energy and was hoppin' (pun intended) throughout its opening weekend. The beers are GOOD. They started out with 4 this weekend (IPA, Saison, Lager, and Porter), and our server said they already plan to add 4 more next weekend, including a sour. You can get a flight of 4 ($12) as well as 10 oz ($5) and 16 oz ($7) pours. I had pours of the Apres Vous Saison and the Diversion Lager, and both were very tasty! Clean, bright, and refreshing. The inside is white with a large painting of a mountain and quote about being adventurous. There are a variety of seating options including barstools, tables, and couches. There's also an outside area with lawn games, fire pits, and parking for food trucks. The patio is also dog-friendly! My one complaint is that they had 2 games (baseball and football) on the TVs when we were there, and the sound from one of them (I think football?) was very loud. I'd much rather have some upbeat background music playing than have to talk to people over other people talking about sports. I wish NoFo great success and hope they keep creating awesome craft beers to quench the thirst of the North Forsyth crowd.

    Another great visit at NoFo on a Friday night. We got there early but it seems that most had the same idea. The beer selections were top notch with about everything for everyone. Entertainment started at 7 and we spent the rest of the weekend talking about how good the guy was (Luke Latimer). The food truck there for the night was decent enough, though I expected a bit more like salsa and tomatillo sauce since it offered Mexican food. It was very bare bones. A permanent truck would make me want to come every weekend... well if the food was good.

    Flight of beer (L to R): Lager, Coffee-infused Porter, IPA, Farmhouse Saison Ale.

    Opening day for this new brewer in Forsyth County. The inside building is well done with a minimalist, yet slightly modern and clean interior. The exterior offers a sizable lawn where they have cornhole games setup. There is also a massive exterior firepit for those cool evenings. So let's talk beer. They have only four offerings at this time, but have overall done a great job. The Farmhouse Ale was excellent - very clean and drinkable; the IPA was also a good drinker and not overly hoppy; the Porter was smooth and infused with coffee - I'm not a fan of coffee, so not a big fan of the beer, however, I think coffee lovers will embrace it. I was glad that they had a lager as one of their offerings because I think it is a big miss for a lot of breweries today. Lagers are a great way to introduce non-craft brew drinkers to craft brews. Unfortnately, for me, their lager fell a bit short on flavor and was a little bit too crisp and bright. This is a brewery and they do not have a kitchen so they do not offer food at this time. However, they do have rotating food trucks open and available for the evening. Currently, my only negative is the fact that they charge $12 for a beer flight. I have been to countless breweries across the nation and I've never paid as much as $12 for a flight of beer. Flights are a great way to introduce patrons to your beer so that the customer can sample and decide what they like and what they don't like. Many people new to a brewer start with a flight of the brewery's beer to get acquainted with it. Then they buy pints afterwards. A flight of beer, which typically consists of four 4 oz beers (which equals a pint) should not cost $12 - $12 for a beer is over-the-top. Overall, I am ecstatic to see a quality craft brewery in North Forsyth County and I feel that NoFo Brew has a lot of promise. Looking forward to an expanded beer menu and watching the successful growth of this brewer.

    The beers I had in my flight- Pillsner, two IPAs, and the Baltic Porter - were all good. But this place was packed, and there was no distancing or mask enforcement whatsoever. I don't expect all customers to wear masks while seated, but even the staff was unmasked. I still paid (and tipped), but I would've stuck around longer and tried the food from the food truck if I felt like it was a safer establishment. They had warnings on the door, but it was unfortunately all for show.

    Open only for take out but at least folks here were bringing samples to try. In this pandemic, it feels like we are traveling to a distant past, if not for the masks, curbside service feels great. I do like the disk golf courts outside. We still haven't opened up our little 32 oz growler. But it won't be long until we do. This location looks brand spanking new. We came here after a day at the Falls.

    My brother and nephew are in town and they looked this spot up for lunch, so we came by today…read more Plenty of parking, right off exit 16 on 400. We sat upstairs with a group of ladies playing mah jong which was cool to see. The host Gabby was nice, after greeting us we were seated in a booth and began looking at the menu. Our server was Taylor, who was friendly, helpful, and really good at her job. Never needed anything bc she was great! I started with one of their blackberry ciders, my brother got a sour. For an app we ordered a giant pretzel and it was delicious. Whole grain mustard and gooey cheese were served on the side. Hard not to want to eat more than one. For entrees I went with a Reuben with a side of tater tots. The Reuben was tasty, they shred the corned beef up so it's easier to eat, and you get consistent bites every time. Their 1000 island dressing is KILLER. It's definitely homemade and I ordered a side for my tots. Nephew got the salmon BLT with sweet potato fries, and my brother got the Philly cheesesteak with tots as well. Once he tried my suggestion of dipping in the dressing, he got a side as well. The GM Andrew came by and checked on us. Service level is great here, made us feel welcome and happy we were in here. Since I'm technically on the clock I had to head out after two ciders. I could see myself being here for hours, if I'm not careful. Support small owned businesses! Thanks to the team and especially Taylor for a great lunch today/

They do not brew their own beer (aka no beer flights) so not sure why they are called a brewery. This felt more like a restaurant. There were tons of seats, and it was very nice! The outdoor seating is downstairs (no elevator). The drink menu needs descriptions, not just names. The drinks we did have were great (strong & not overpriced). The old-fashioned had regular ice not the large square or ball ice like most old-fashioned. We did send the fish & chips back because the fish wasn't crispy. It was soggy & fishy. We did enjoy the house chips and atmosphere. We would give them another try.

Our table slanted down a bit, and that was a little awkward but the benefit was that condensation rolled to the end instead of into our laps. Also my chair had two metal dog bowls underneath that made a racket whenever I moved the chair. Our server was friendly but over shared often. For my meal I had the salmon with bourbon glaze. It was cooked properly and had good flavor. The lettuce leaf under it was different; I think I could have done without. The fish came with my choice of two sides and I picked the green beans and the cornbread stuffing. Both were quite salty. The green beans were not very green and overcooked. There were two elbow macaroni mixed in. The cornbread was mushy and covered in gravy. It tasted fine, I just would have preferred more texture. Both beers were very good. I had a sour to start that was like a very tart pink lemonade. The pink color came from blueberries but I'm not sure I detected any blueberry flavor. My second beer was That Coconut Porter and it was mellow and smooth with good coconut flavor and nice dark color. There was lots of street parking and many shops and restaurants in the area. A band began playing in the taproom next to the restaurant at some time. Also a large outdoor space that was full of kids running around playing as I was going home. Looked like a fun place for everyone.
