I really liked Old Bull Brewing for the main reason that their beers are experimental... or some of…read morethem anyway and those that may be less so are solid and enjoyable also. It's also very convenient that the brewery is extremely close to the Interstate so relatively easy on and off. But more importantly than that and what my primary focus is are those creative beers! I knew what my first beer was going to be right away and that's when I saw the Old Bull Fashioned. This amber ale tasted just like the Old Fashioned cocktail which I can't recall in ever having such a thing in beet form. It was a really fun one to drink and luckily where they had their beer in cans they had this beer available so I got to take it home and enjoy it once again! It seems like this brewery has a thing for pickles and looking at Yelp pictures they really get creative with toppings for them which is why I also purchased a can of the Spicy Pickle beer to take home. I have had pickle beer before but it's been a hot minute. Old Bull's version is very good and lives right up to the spicy pickle aspect quite nicely. With this beer though we had by itself and didn't pair it with any food as we were not sure what would be a good fit but despite that it didn't diminish our enthusiasm for it. Two other beers I got was their Exit 89 which was a great blonde ale and the Dark Horn English Porter. Both very enjoyable beers also. An additional thing which makes Old Bull so cool is if you go to the restrooms in the hallway you will see a map of all of Montana 's breweries, when they opened and the status of "closed" if the brewery is no longer in business. This is so informative and just really cool all the way around. Definitely a five star experience with this brewery!

So we are on our way home from Missoula where I had business and had checked out a couple of…read morebreweries. SWPFTD had picked up a Montana beer trail map and lo and behold Frenchtown has a brewery. How did I not know this and how could I not stop and make OBB brewery visit #276? OBB is right off 90 so if you are headed into or out of Missoula it's convenient to stop and check it out. We were first in the door right after they opened at two. OBB has a really nice taproom and it turns out has been around for about five years. Kind of a Big Dill is a spicy pickled blonde. She sounds like a good date actually. This was spicy but just as I was starting to worry I had made a mistake it mellowed out. Barbwire Crosser stout was very smooth and great roasty flavor. This would be really good on nitro! The Mrs is a Scotch wee heavy. Really nice flavor and would be perfect for sipping in front of the fire while it's snowing outside. It's not snowing now though! 60°!!!! Bugle Juice is a hazy IPA we it's really great juicy flavor. This beer should have "JUICY" in big letters across the butt of its sweat pants. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. SWPFTD had ordered a Straight Shooter amber ale. This was another solid beer. SWPFTD was happy with it and I like it when she's happy. OBB is putting out some really good beer. I travel a lot and go to breweries all over the country and OBB holds its own and then some. I liked all of these beers. Nicole working the bar was welcoming and a pleasure to talk to. If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand. Yes, you will need to read into it a little to get the joke but I have confidence in you! I hope my confidence is not misplaced.

They were not like Midwestern style cheese curds, but they were very yummy with bacon and hot honey. The cottage pie had a nice flavor although a bit dry. We asked for a side of the poutine gravy and that did the trick. I'd never heard of a pickle chicken sandwich. Yes it sounds weird. See pic for menu description. It had very moist chicken, but I did not get a ton of flavor. After I added a side more of the chipotle sauce it was more tasty. The shoestring fries were nicely seasoned. And we liked their Scotch Ale better than the Cold Smoke. We'll definitely be back to try more things up from the menu.

Great vibe here, amazing selection and friendly, knowledgeable service…read more They had 45 taps and a huge bottle selection. I had a Founders Porter, Founders is a good brewery but they had a variety of quality breweries on tap including lots of good locals. I told the staff what I like to drink and they had good suggestions and brought me tasters to make sure it would be something I'd enjoy. Comfortable bar, clean, not too crowded on a Friday, pretty much couldn't ask for more.

We parked on street and walked in…read more We arrived at 6 pm for 8 pm show. The security opened at 6:30 pm and went fast, 10 minutes. By 7 pm there was barely any lines .....the first surge comes early for lawn seats We had the Nashville chicken and it was good It's all premade so it arrives seconds after ordering The view is pretty ... you can't really see the river It was a perfect 75°- 80°. The venue is five stars The BAD part....we went to see SYMPHONY ON THE RIVER MISSOULA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PRESENTS THE MUSIC OF ELTON JOHN The sound was horrible. There was some sort of LOUD constant hum... we think it was the singers band, and too loud bass. The sound system was one Star When the piano singer sang with just the symphony it was incredible But that was one song. The rest of the time you couldn't even hear the symphony or the singer. Just that loud bass. I had to plug my ears We left at intermission We drove from Stevensville

The venue was absolutely stunning and it was the perfect place to see Vampire Weekend. I saw a lot of people complaining about the way the venue handled people coming in and out but we had a great experience. We took the bus (which is FREE) to the venue and got dropped off not too far from the venue. Got there about 15 minutes before doors opened and the lines were short. On the way back we took an Uber back to our Airbnb. I highly recommend PLANNING before blaming the venue.
