    Destroyer King Dough
    Kelsey H.

    We stopped here on our way to March madness. I was a bit sad they had no bubbles for a beermosa but we still made the best of it. I was happy it wasn't too crowded either! Got the destroyer from King Dough as well.

    Back in the fall my mom and I met up for lunch and drinks at Sun King. It's one of our go-to spots because it has a food hall inside of a top notch brewery / distillery. My mom is a creature of habit and normally drinks their cream ale but I encouraged her to branch out and try some seasonal brews with me. We did a flight and her favorite was the Salted Caramel Brownie Porter. While my favorite ended up being the Caramel Apple Tripel because of the barrel aged combination of fruit notes and brown sugar sweetness. Sun King never fails to come up with unique small batch beers, so it doesn't matter what time of year that you decide to visit because the good beer is always flowing!

    Just a solid Biergarten with an amazing location. The beer is consistently very good. While they don't have their own food...they do share space with a Couple of smaller joints that are closer to a brick n mortar food truck vibe. There are also a handful of excellent restaurants within a 2 min walk. I'll keep coming back for the beer and great service.

    Buffalo Chicken Wrap

    Decks, awnings, turf, buzzing beepers, bells, and whistles - it's all here. This is a double decker food hall, an institution of brew. And yet, amidst the noise, it's nowhere to be found. Sun King stepped into a stadium of top shaggers, saw the floodlights, and ran. Was my meal tasty? Certainly. Clean plate club as always. If somebody bought this Buffalo Chicken Wrap for me I'd be ever grateful. But it's bigger than that. Modern era bar food, located in prime estate on this Monon trail, needs more. In my eyes, an identity is absent. American eatery meets sunny afternoon is a bar flying awfully close to the sun. It requires gumption to survive. Boldness enough to hand me a paper menu covered in ketchup. QR codes are system quarterbacks built upon Defensive Coordinators. In conjunction with those aforementioned beepers, makes an old head out of me. This pairing lauds organization as champion. Where's the chance to experience? Here's the answer. Wrap my meal in tin foil, yell out a number, and let me scurry. Have somebody waiting with a sack, by this point, that's perspired. Imagine Five Guys fry bag. I unwrap this meal upon return to my table and blue cheese is everywhere. You can't make out where the sauce started and meal began. Smiles spread no further than that moment! Capture it. Sell it. In the meantime, Godspeed y'all.

    My friend came into town to visit for my birthday and to kill some time we stopped in. I was a bit disappointed by the level of service they provided so we only stuck with one drink and left. It's a huge establishment with plenty of space for crowds but we just didn't feel very welcomed. We did not order food but it's a bar at the end of the day.

    I'm a flight fan!

    We were on vacation and popped in here. Very unique location with lots to do. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a flight. The staff were fairly attentive but didn't attempt to connect with us.

    Fantastic spot for drinks after work, especially since they have ample seating inside and out along with food options. Service has always been spot on and never have to wait too long for a beer! One of these days I'm going to venture out of IPA land into the land of other styles of Sun King beer.

    10/10. We had a server named Ben, he is phenomenal. I would recommend giving him partial ownership.
