We stopped at River Siren after a hike at William Obrien state park. It was the perfect end to our day! The beer was tasty and the patio was lovely overlooking the St Croix. They also had great music playing on the patio! Would definitely recommend this brewery if you're in town :) read more

Can't believe I've never even heard of this brewery before. We were driving back from Wisconsin through Stillwater and decided we needed a beer. This seemed like the most logical place to stop so we could also see the snow sculptures that were melting along the river. Very glad we did. The space has an industrial feel with what looks to be a great patio in the summer. Obviously not open when it is this cold. It held an interesting selection of beers. I mean interesting in a good way. They were not flavors I necessarily would've expected, but reallyenjoyed everything I tried.. Several beers had a little bit of a kick to them that I like spice and a beer, but many breweries really don't know how to balance it out with the other flavors. That was not the case here. I enjoyed everything I sampled on a flight. They also stock, Candyland popcorn, which was nice to have as we had not eaten dinner yet. I really enjoyed this brewery and will definitely stop again when I am in the area. read more

Great venue. Love the porch area. Cool vibe and activities for patrons plus a TV if you want to watch the Vikes run amuck over Brock Purdy. There is also a kiosk to order pizza that will get delivered right to the bar which is pretty cool. I just have a hard time spending $8 on a pint when it is coming straight from the teat. It was good, not anything exceptional. Was considering having another but the price kinda swayed me to the "let's see what else there is" and we opted to move on. Multiple birthday groups were also there so that is also good to know in case you are on the search of "event space". read more

Lovely brewery in the heart of downtown Stillwater. We stopped in for an after dinner beer after dinner on a Thursday night. They had trivia night going on during that specific evening. One thing I like about the brewery is not only do they have beer but they have tons of other options, seltzers, cbd/thc beverages and NA drinks too! Everyone will be satisfied. Lots of seating areas available whether you're outside gazing at the lift bridge or inside. Tony Freeman is the head brewer that keeps patrons coming back for more of his delicious beer. read more

We have a family tradition of Sunday Funday where we head down to River Siren for pizza and local brews. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming and great with our kids. The selection of beers and NA beverages provides a large variety and it's a great vibe to hang out with a board game or art project and cap off the weekend. read more

Wonderful chill atmosphere. Love the patio that looks out to the river! Good selections of brews. I had the Boom Site, enjoyed it a lot! Definitely want to go back and try some more. Located perfectly right on mainstreet in Stillwater. read more

Cool place. The beers were great. Nice patio with views of the river. And best of all, the outside patio is dog friendly.

Stopped in at River Siren Brewing while visiting Stillwater, MN. With the weather so nice, it was a perfect spot to sit on the patio facing the river. We sat on the edge of inside/outside patio next to a fireplace. We enjoyed the outdoors but stay covered. They have a wraparound deck so plenty of seating. It looked like there is an upstairs as well but didn't check it out. It is a dog friendly brewery so several folks had their pups with them. It was fun to see all the activity! Looks like a great community of patrons. You walk up to the bar to place your order. The gentleman who helped us was very friendly. My husband likes kolsch style beer so he ordered the Serenade. I don't drink beer so I ordered a hard seltzer and it had the essence of key lime. It was delicious! They brew their own beer and hard seltzers which we love. They don't serve any food but you can bring food in if you like. I have to say the place was spotless! So clean! The restrooms were super clean as well. I absolutely love that. We will definitely be back. read more

No food, but you can order from nearby restaurants or just walk that way afterwards!!! You order at the bar and then find outside on the patio or inside the building. They have a variety of beers. I tried the rhubarb sour and it was delicious along with the raspberry jalapeño cream ale which I ordered twice. read more

Stop #37 of our 2024 Hundreds of Hops self-guided US Hop Passport Brewery Tour, one we were excited for. We stopped in for a one & done before grabbing a bite nearby. The service was OK, the beer was OK, leaving us to believe that the location HAS to be what's bringing up the ratings. Once we were given our brews, neither barkeep spoke to us again, despite our being seated at the bar. No inquiries as to how it was (fairly common) or asking if we wanted another. This was also our most expensive stop of the breweries, as they did a buy the high, get the low free, vs the stated half off your first 2. It's not something that we argued, as I agree with that pricing. This is more to let anyone expecting half off your $12 & $6 that you'll be paying $12, not $9. I'd come to sit outside & enjoy the view on a nice day. Otherwise, I'd rather go elsewhere. It is huge, so, also would be nice for a big group. read more

Located perfectly in the center of Stillwater, very charming and fun, micro brewery with some good beers, great ambience, and beer glasses, too! You really can't go wrong coming here, thank goodness this charming little town of Stillwater has its own micro brewery! I came right in and picked a flight and had a great time. They didn't have a double New England style IPA when I came however, I enjoyed the beers . Even better is the atmosphere and the tables and the entire place! It's a heckuva fun place to go to and great for Groups. Could drop in here right before dinner, and then walk to any of the restaurants along the downtown area. Honestly I thought the beers here were pretty middle of the road for the most part, I had a one or two that had some nice unique flavors. I mean the beer tasted good I don't want to say or give the wrong impression but the one area they might want to focus on some of the beers themselves. It's an incredibly competitive industry with lots of players, which is tough I understand. But I highly recommend you stopping in here for a flight or even staying longer or getting something to eat. Everyone was having a great time here, put it on your list to do! read more

Excellent beer selection and wonderful service. Lovely outdoor seating options with a view of the river.

Maybe a bit controversial but I wonder when it became normal to bring kids to a brewery? Make no mistake I love kids! But these poor lil people sitting in a loud room just seemed sad to me. There were several tables with kids sitting and some were playing games which is great but no where for people who want to sit and have a beer? I'm sorry I know when I had little kids I really looked for places to take them and even restaurants were a struggle at times. I don't have the solution but it just seems like those kiddos would much prefer being somewhere else? We were not able to find a table so we left without purchasing anything. read more

Cute brewery. Stopped here after a walk down Main Street in Stillwater. Was a nice reward after the fact. They have a patio facing a lake which is a nice view. They offer a cash discount on drinks and have a strong selection. There was live music as well when we came. Will be back read more

Good beers and selection, nice crowd, clean bathrooms and great view. Our only negative is the parking/pay lots but at least they were available. Would go back again if in the area. read more

This might have been the prettiest beer sampler I've ever seen. The MN holder was adorable. The beer was good. The place was large. They had a lot of outdoor seating which would be awesome when it's nice out. Cool place! read more

Our group felt like it wasn't a good experience. They were out of things we wanted which is disappointing but we were willing to look past and still give the place a try, they said their closed in patio was "dog friendly" but sitting out there there wasn't any sort of heat lamp or anything so everyone who came with dogs was absolutely freezing out there. Which leads to the next point... they had this kiosk to order pizza which we assumed was in house and it didn't have any label saying it was actually just Door Dash for one specific restaurant, very very deceiving, which if the brewery had clearly labeled this we would have never ordered knowing it takes so long and we were sitting and getting more and more cold with a dog. We also ordered not realizing their patio enclosure had zero heat lamps and doors were getting stuck open and it was terrible. So, unknowingly, we ordered two separate pizzas and the first one took more than an hour to receive, and they didn't come at the same time. The guy said 15 more minutes which was a blatant lie... other one came 40 minutes later... it felt like we were turning into ice at this point. And once we realized this was an out of house situation after the first pizza we tried calling the pizza place to cancel the second pizza they pointed us to door dash. Finally the second one came and it was the wrong pizza. Not to mention I ordered a ranch which was $1.50 (way over the top) and came 1/3 full - it didn't spill at all that's just what they give. We left absolutely freezing from the "dog friendly patio enclosure" and so crabby and frustrated. I feel like the brewery needs to put heat lamps, have things in stock, and clearly label that they are using door dash at their establishment. read more

River Siren is a fun place to hang out in Stillwater. There is ample seating inside and on the patio, where the view is lovely. Plenty of games at the entrance to pick up and play. There are food options certain days of the week. I had the seltzer, it was delicious. Pets are welcome on the patio. read more

A cute place to hang out right by downtown and there are great water views! There is plenty of seating inside or outside; not to mention the great views of the water on the patio. Which so happened to have live music when I was there. I would say it is a smaller brewer than those I have been to, but the beer I had was great! To order it is a walk-up counter and the service was friendly and quick! read more

Came on a Friday night. We had a bit of trouble finding parking due to the ice sculptures nearby. There's lots of public parking nearby and a very small lot for the brewery that I'm sure would be less full when there's less going on in Stillwater. The space is large and there's a main level and a smaller upper level that's quieter. There is a good selection of beer and seltzers and lots of restaurants nearby to deliver/pickup from. We enjoyed the live music-it wasn't too loud-we could hear it but also converse, which was nice. There's a nice outdoor area that was a bit chilly in January but I can imagine would be nice in the summer. Pups are allowed indoors and outdoors. We hope to be back soon! read more

River Siren Brewing - Having a brew! - Breweries Near Me - Stillwater, Minnesota

SUCH a great brewery. They did an amazing job updating the former space and improving seating, patio, etc. I got the Hooah Brewha and it was so, so good. A perfect beer for a summer night They regularly have a taco truck there that serves up delicious eats, and they have live music on the weekends. It's a great place to go with friends, but you also don't feel out of place if you go alone. They're also dog-friendly, indoors and outdoors, so it's a nice place to bring Fido (or a nice thing to be aware of if you're not a dog fan). They do have reminders for pet parents posted all over, so dogs there are always very well behaved. read more

This brewery is located in downtown Stillwater, with tons of street parking all over and it is in a very convenient location. He typically is very busy on the weekends, so we had to wait a little bit to get a table, but luckily they have a lot of indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered the juicy pale ale, because the two IPAs that they had were not hazy and I love a hazy IPA. However, I was pleasantly surprised to actually like the juicy pale ale. Overall, the spot has a very lively and cheerful ambience and a great place to go to for a drink before you go out to dinner in Stillwater. read more

I've visited this brewery a couple of times over the span of a few visits and it's just been lovely every time. The service has been good, the beers are refreshing and the atmosphere is just what I was looking for at the time. Pet friendly so expect to see some poochies. They have games you can borrow and play while you enjoy a bevvy which is nice it's directly across the street from the Crosby Hotel which is where I usually stay for Stillwater visits so that's also very convenient. read more

This brewery is a fun stop in Stillwater. Not pretentious, has tasty beer (a few experimental beers), and a great view of the St. Croix River. Love how they use the local icons to name their beer too, such as the Boom Site. Plus, they have an excellent food truck, El Coronel, that has the best burritos! A little authentic Mexican food gem in a Mexican food desert this side of the Twin Cities. read more

I think it's the same brewers as Maple Island? The upstream flow blue Hefeweizen is really good. I'm a big fan of the fact that the have classics, but aren't overly attached to flagship beers so it's always changing. Nice patio looking at the historic lift bridge. Food trucks in their lot are choice. read more

Visited for a "Grooms-Dinner" event. Was impressed! Great variety of very fresh beers...Even some non-alcoholic choices. Pizza was great also as was the service. Very capable and friendly staff! Hats Off!! read more

What a great place! The beers are great. I had a pale ale and I hazy ipa, nice and citrusy and not over hopped. There is something for everyone including hard seltzers and an amazing house made cherry cola! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. There is a river view from almost every seat. The patio is super nice and recently renovated. The bar staff was very friendly. They have a taco food truck most weekends, (in warm weather, ) which is very tasty. (Try the carnitas!) They also partner with the pizza joint down the street! Which will sometimes deliver. (1/2 block away so pick up is no big deal). You can bring your own food in as well. This is a great addition to downtown! The new owners have done a wonderful job and it's a great addition to downtown, but don't forget the great brews! read more

Really good beer and awesome location! Tons of seating inside and but garage doors so you can still experience the nice weather. Patio/deck wraps around two sides of the building so you can sit in the sun or fully covered shade. Good view of the river and bridge. Situated towards the end of the Main Street so it didn't feel over crowded. I had delicious tacos from the food truck that was there when I visited- love the rotating truck options or how you can bring your own food in! read more

I'm sorry but what a let down from what it used to be, Maple Island. where's the Cup of Joe, how about Freakshow and Maple Bock. did they get a new brewer ? don't they have the recipes ? why dump award winning beers ?
