Although there are many picturesque lakes nearby, the brewery does not have a view of any of them, sadly- just trying very boring and dead Main St. On the other hand, my 6.5% APV Blood Orange IPA is delicious. As far as atmosphere goes, -1 for all the gambling games. +1 because I can smell the sweet wort in the air.

Date of visit: January 31, 2026…read more We were down here for a fundraiser for the NGBC Knights Baseball Trivia Fundraiser in the rear banquet space and was overall impressed with the facility. It's kind of hidden as it is located in a separate space behind the taproom and we actually appeared to walk through some of the production facility to access the space (likely on account of the cold) which was both fascinating and slightly nerve-wracking, similar to the beginning of a low-budget horror movie! The space is airy and large, and accommodated a couple hundred inebriated baseball parents (and two infidels from Wisconsin that snuck into the event and won the whole damn thing!) along with a quesadilla truck and raffle prizes. I don't drink so I can't speak to the beer but others I talked to said they were good. I can only vouch for their Coca-Cola and give that a thumbs up! Really the only issue is that the space never seemed to fully warm up for me and I left my coat on the entire several hours I was there.

We were staying nearby for a long weekend getaway in Chicago. After a long travel day, we were…read moreseeking some nourishment, so we hit up Broken Tee. There was street parking available out front for us, but I could imagine parking would be tougher during the warmer months! This spot was fairly simple inside, with a variety of tables, exposed brewing machinery, and loosely golf-themed decor. The service was friendly and efficient, even though the space was pretty busy with a trivia night happening. We ordered two beers: their Schwarz beer and a Hazy IPA! Both tasted great. We also ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich and the Cheesesteak, which both came with a lovely serving of fries. The sandwiches were very tasty and the accompanying sipping sauces (Hot Honey and Chipotle Aioli) were awesome! Overall, a wonderful, no-frills spot for a bite and a sip! Nothing to blow your socks off, but also not much to critique! We would definitely return!

I tried a beer flight along with several dishes, including the Detroit-style pie, tavern-style pie, chicken sandwich with hand-cut fries, wings and spinach artichoke dip. Everything was good, but the pies and those hand-cut fries were the standouts for me. The fries were seriously some of the best I've had at a restaurant.....thick, crispy, and clearly made fresh. The space itself is large but still feels cozy, with plenty of seating, a lounge area, board games, and a laid-back atmosphere that works for both adults and families. I also loved being able to see into the area where they brew their beer on-site. Between the food, house-brewed beer, and relaxed atmosphere, this is definitely a place I'd make the drive back to.

Came here for dinner on a Saturday evening with a party 6 and we were seated on high boosted table…read moreseats; our server was very kind and sweet and we came around 5:00 PM so we were seated pretty swiftly with no wait. For appetizers we had their loaded tater tots and cheese curds; their tater tots were absolutely delicious, I wish we requested to add birria, but even without the meat it was so so good- the tater tots were fried and crisp and the sauce with jalapeños and cheddar cheese were rich and indulgent. I tried their fish and chips and personally, it wasn't bad but it wasn't exactly amazing. I personally would absolutely go back to try their other foods but I personally wouldn't order their fish and chips again, the fish was fried crisp but lacked any more flavor (and I have had a LOT of fish and chips, I at least expect SOME flavor), and I substituted their house fries for truffle fries. The truffle fries were disappointing, not crisp and quite soggy when I received them. Their assortment of beers are fine, tried a flight of 4 different assortments and didn't find one that I particularly loved or wow'd me, but I appreciate the wide selection of local craft beers! The downside I will say was the overall wait and service- our server was so kind and nice, but for a Saturday evening it was clear their team was way understaffed. We arrived at 5:00 PM and left at 7:00 PM because we had waited 20 minutes at a time to be seen to get boxes and then again to get our check. Our server had to serve other tables around the restaurant in ADDITION to manning the bar. We came at 5:00 PM before dinner rush came and by the time we left we were in the thick of dinner rush which meant our server was held up majority of the time. Not his fault at all, I'm hoping that moment was a one off of bad scheduling and unable to find adequate coverage for staff. Overall, I'll return to try their other foods! I'm hoping the service will be more supportive for their staff so their servers aren't spread so thin.

Visited Pips a few months back. I really liked their "pilsner inspired mead". The bartender was…read moresuper knowledgeable, and was using the traditional Meads to mix unique drinks. If you are new to mead check it out. And if mead isn't your thing the local beers on tap should satisfy as well!

And while our visit was admittedly time-constrained (the place closes at 4 pm on Sundays), when it was all said and done, I had only the one ($8) 2-oz sample and walked away with only a single ($33) 375L bottle - the net of which was under 15 total ounces of mead for over $40. Sure the cost of supplies has gone up, especially I assume for the more exquisite fruits, and they clearly have a significant amount of square footage to pay for at this deceivingly swanky 'parlor' location, but at $2.67 an OZ, even a brief session, will be an expensive one. So why am I still OK with the 5-stars? In this case those were awarded based on the over and above service from the knowledgeable bartender, the quality of the huge venue, as well as the depth and breadth of the options they produce, including fruits you've never heard of (yumberry and quince?) or those you never would associate with mead, like date or fig mead. Oh ya, they also provide a nice cocktail program (incl 'mead cocktails'?!) and a few actual random beers as well - altho nothing hoppy if that's important. The quality of the product also confirmed everything I read on UnTapd.....but damn, for the money, it sure better!
