We came here to celebrate a life of a lost loved one. I love how big the table is and was able to house all of us to be able to see each other. Now let's get to the good stuff. The food is amazing! Truly, my favorite place to go in Meeker! The pizza was so delirious! The service was very helpful and friendly. Tons of beers and seltzer to choose from. I went with a watermelon seltzer and it was delicious!! Whether you live here or passing through definitely give this place a try you won't be disappointed.

What an awesome little brewery. The minute we walked in some of the locals started talking to us, very nice people, interested in how are fishing had gone that day and where we were from. The young lady who helped us choose our beers was very helpful and professional. I had the Two Headed Caddis IPA, which had a great hoppy flavor with a touch of tropical sweetness. I also tried the Duhb Lasc Irish Stout, great coffee flavor! The food is served from the Chuckwagon Grille food truck. Awesome smash burgers that were so large you had to eat them with a fork and knife. I had the Heart Attack burger, which was a 1/2 pound burger covered with cheese, smothered with green chili, bacon, lettuce tomatoes and onion. Soooo good!!! If you pass through Meeker, you definitely need to stop here! Keep up the good work guys, you definitely have a gem of a brewery!

So... a little background first. I was in Meeker last year, and this place wasn't open yet. I was excited to see that a brewery was coming. I live in a city that has quite a few microbreweries, some good, some not so good. Also, I brew my own beer, so I'm kind of picky. As far as this brewery goes; it's pretty good, especially for a small town like Meeker. Of course, keep in mind that this is a small operation, and in a pretty small remote area. I arrived at about 8:15 PM. The sign on the door said closed. There were people inside, the door was still unlocked, so I went inside. (I thought maybe the small sign got turned around by accident, or at least that is what I hoped.) The bartender got up from one of the tables and proceeded behind the bar. I asked if they were truly closed and she replied that they "technically closed at 8:00", but would serve me, because they still had people there. (Ah, small town hospitality ) I ordered a beer and wandered around. The brewing area is small, but probably the correct size for the size of the operation and the amount of people in this community. I sat at a table to enjoy me beer. Ok, so if you thought that I was rude or uncool to enter the place with a closed sign on the door, I wasn't the last one to do so. But the bartender didn't turn anyone away. She helped them with a smile, even though she was away from her table of friends and card game. My beer was good and cold, but not as much hop bite for a heavy IPA. On their beer menu is was labeled as 6.9 ABV and a 58 IBU, so I know that was probably not going to quite as "hoppy" as I like. But it was a pretty good beer. They have a pretty good selection of beers, most people will be able to find something that they might like. When I finished my beer and got up to leave, the bartender asked if I wanted another one. And although I did want another one, I didn't want to be a total D-bag and keep them from closing, I declined a second beer. (Although there were still people inside and outside.) There wasn't a food truck here tonight, but the food truck comes on the weekends. I plan on coming back, the next time that I am in town. Keep in mind; this is a small community; most things close early and have limited hours. Stop in and try it. Support the local scene and local brewery.

IPA and lager.

One of the best burgers I've had ! The beer matched or topped bigger well known breweries in Colorado.

He took half of it to go. I loved the spring berry salad to which I added grilled shrimp. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. I tasted their summertime special beer which is brewed using strawberries- didn't care for it so I went with wine! Zach was our server. He was very nice.

I just got the homemade root beer which was completely underwhelming which was lacking any flavor, lacking in both the earthy taste and in sweetness. The green chili pork with hominy was the soup special I had and it was great. The tortilla strips added a nice crunch and the green chili had a nice spice to it without being overpowering. The fish and chips were alright, with the fish being a bit under salted and the coleslaw being a mushy mess and the tartar being very basic. The fries were nice as they had a nice crisp and were seasoned enough. Our waitress barely ever came by and gave us the check like the restaurant was shutting down but they were still open another hour and other sections were still full. Getting rushed out was a bit odd but didn't ruin the food. Descent enough spot but offers nothing special.

They have a bunch of excellent beers and there is a food truck in the back that serves delicious wood fired thin crust pizza and other "gourmet street food" according to the writing on their truck. We had two of their large pies and an order of Wisconsin cheese curds. Between the four of us, I think we are all but one slice. As for the beer, I think we had at least 6 different beers. They have a great selection of pilsners and lagers that are around 5-6% abv, which is good since we had to drive. They also have a couple coolers with soft drinks for kiddos, DDs and those that don't drink beer. They also had a couple of hard seltzers available. All of the beers we tasted were great. I'd recommend getting a flight of 4 if you want to try a few different kinds. My favorite is probably theirr Free Stone lager. The space is pretty unique. All parking is in the back in a crushed stone parking lot. There is a deck off the front and the back. I think most of the action is either inside or on the back seating area. There was a gigantic TV inside where there was a football game showing, but we stayed mostly on the deck outside except for coming into get more beer and use the restrooms. There were three restrooms, M, W and either. Lots of high top tables inside and a handful of rocking chairs on the back deck. Be sure to bring a jacket or other layers because as soon as the sun goes down, we'll, it's Colorado so you should know. The temps dropped pretty quickly. It's a great place to bring well behaved dogs and meet up with friends for good food and drinks. We're adding it to our down valley rotation.
