One of the things I enjoy about Suspended is how the staff is highly knowledgeable about their offerings. They even allow u to taste as many as you'd like b4 ordering. The staff was extremely friendly. There's always a laid back non pretentious atmosphere (when it could really be quite snooty, based on design and layout of the place). Its always giving a very clean feel, which I love as well. This visit, my friend & I opted to each have a flight [of 4] to taste the many varied offerings at Suspended. We basically ordered the same thing w/ the exception of two beers. It was journey we enjoyed taking. Our selections included: 1. 'SUNRISE IN CAIRO' (5 YEAR COLLAB)! Hibiscus Ale 4.6%. A red ale, delicately hopped, and colored with hibiscus. With such a cool name, I expected something memorable. This wasn't bad. It wasn't great either. Nice beer. 2. 'TROPHIES': Mexican Lager 4.2%. This is pilsner lager delicately dry-hopped with whole cone Amarillo hops, fermented with Mexican lager yeast. Tastes exactly as expected. Tastes like any basic lite beer. Not bad. Not good. A perfect game day, chugging, pace yourself beer. 3. 'BLOOD ORANGE KINTSUGI': Fruited IPA 6.3%. An American IPA kettle and dry hopped with Simcoe & Citra, then blended with blood orange. Upon initial taste, I'm hit with lovely florals (as if in a field of flowers). Then bitterness sets in and a fermented, mild taste that rounds off to citrusy orange notes finishing w/ a strong orange peel taste. Interesting. 4. And the WINNER, HANDS DOWN IS... 'DOUBLE BLACK PEARL': 11%. Here, we have an Imperial breakfast stout made with dark malts, caramel malts, hont; nalt, oats, cinnamon, vanilla, and a special coffee blend. How do I describe this one?!? Well... As ABBA sang, 'The winner takes it ALL! The loser's standing small...' THIS stout right here, is the REASON I was meant to walk into Suspended that day! This was the ABSOLUTE WINNER! This was a hearty stout (much like a well poured Guinness or Young's) but this had a delicious melange of complex flavors. Starts bitter, as a stout should, then mellows into chocolatey coffee. This coffee has been flavored and you can taste the caramel, cinnamon & vanilla coming thru. Absolute decadence. After I finished my flight, I had to got back and get a draught of this one. YUMMMINESS!!! score Score SCORE!!!! TRIPLE WORD SCORE!!! 5. 'DOUBLE DOSED DOUBLE BLACK PEARL': Double Coffee & Coconut 11%. Double Black Pearl double dosed with coffee and coconut! Now, personally, I don't like coconut ANYTHING so my friend had this one, solo. He enjoyed it highly so my review will mimic the review of DOUBLE BLACK PEARL w/ the perfect addition of coconut. SCORE, by default. *smile* And the 'Cherry on top' was that I mistakenly left my credit card. I guess I was feelin really good or something (lol). The problem was that they were in the process of closing when we left. I realized while driving away. I called and they had it and said they'd wait for me to come back. That was truly appreciated bc I was already on I-95 when I called. So that was AWESOME!!! I always have a great time here. read more

Wow, what an awesome brewery in good ole Pigtown! I had heard great things about this spot from my fellow Yelpers and decided to check it out. The brewery itself is located on the main road of Pigtown right off of MLK Blvd. You can definitely get lucky with street parking depending on the day but I imagine it would be a bit tricky on game days. The brewery is located inside of what used to be a cinema. You can tell by the classic bulb lights on the inside and outside of the entrance. When I walked in, I immediately noticed the crystal chandeliers and that A$AP Rocky was playing - what a great combination. I also loved the beautiful plants by the entrance. I tried a few different beers and finally landed on the Leda. It is a refreshing sour that sort of has a champagne vibe to it. If you like sours, this is definitely the brewery for you. I'm a sucker for a good sour and let's just say that Suspended has tons to choose from. I love the fact that they bottle their beers in glass bottles instead of cans. You can see the contents inside and even the fermentation at the bottom of the bottle (kinda like kombucha). I'd like to come back on a day that they have a food vendor since I've heard great things about the vegan offerings. Suspended Brewing is also an inclusive space with specific signs on restrooms promising safety to folks of all gender identities. They also have a strong passion for the environment. Although they're using disposable cups right now due to Covid-19, the cups are compostable! I love a brewery with solid sours, but I love a brewery that stands for something even more. Cheers to Suspended Brewing! read more

I like this cozy brewery so much! When I asked them about a beer which is not so bitter, they recommended "Sunrise in Cairo" to me. It was delicious with subtle scent of hibiscus. I was also able to taste the "Blood Orange Kintsugi". It was a bit bitter for me but flavorful. Next time, I would like to try other beers too! read more

Love sours? This is the first place you should go in Baltimore. Forget all those wanna-be sours at other breweries or in the store. This place has real sours, like make-you-pucker, filled-with-fruit sours. Sooo good. I could spend all my money on these beers. Pro tip? Don't bother with the other beers here, IPAs aren't what they do. Cute sitting areas, great employees, just all around a must-stop read more

Suspended Brewing Company - Raspberry leda - Breweries Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Suspended Brewing is the hidden brewery-gem of Baltimore, and maybe all of Maryland. Suspended is probably most beloved for their lambic-style ales. Dry, fruity, sometimes tart. Always complex and extremely quality. They are a tiny operation with almost no distribution. So you have to visit to experience their brews. Suspended also makes great Pilsners, Imperial Stouts, and is now dabbling in other Belgian/Abbey-style ales! Again, everything is made is great care and has lovely appearances and vibrant flavors. Never a boring beer here. The only caution I have is that they have limited hours of operation and don't have a dedicated parking lot. So be sure to check their hours and plan your parking before you go. read more

This is by far my favorite brewery in Baltimore. Admittedly, I haven't gone too many in the area, but all breweries from here on out have big shoes to fill. Suspended is nestled in (what I consider) a residential area of Pigtown. Parking was surprisingly easy for a Saturday afternoon--or maybe I just got lucky. I heard that it's sometimes tricky to find parking so I'd Uber if you don't want to take any chances. We found free parking on the street adjacent to Washington Blvd. Suspended was re-purposed into a brewery, so the outside and inside still have remnants of the old theater--marquee lights, the stage (which is now the brewing area), and other little retro props. It's a beautiful venue for a birthday party, wedding, reception, or get-together. The staff are phenomenal! They are attentive, friendly, and accommodating. We had the pleasure of meeting Josey who shared his immense knowledge of brewing with us. All the staff really know their stuff! Currently, their hours are limited--but understandably so, because for one they are a small brewery and don't produce the same volume as larger breweries. Hey, that's a good thing though. You know your beer is always served fresh. Beer has gluten. So you might wonder, why would someone with Celiac's even bother visiting this place? Let. me. tell. you. They offer more than just beer! They have coffee and kombucha on tap! AHHHMAZZZINGGG. My sister tried all the beers (which she said all were very good--but her favorite was the Strawberry Rhubarb), while I tried the kombucha. They serve kombucha from Hex, a local kombucha company in Baltimore, and the one they had on tap was a ginger kombucha. It was really good! And on top of that, it was only $3. WHAAAAT? Yeah, you heard me. Just $3. The beers are pretty cheap too. The tasting flights I believe are only $3 as well. If you love a beer, you can actually get a bottle to go for only $10. Mind-blowing. I don't think any other brewery can compare to their prices and hospitality. Try out Suspended! I promise you won't regret it! read more

Visited here for the first time today (wasn't crowded but it was Fri 4:30pm). Just wanted to shout out the amazing staff there. The outstanding, stellar service makes this place stand out to me. It also has a convenient location in a more residential part of Pigtown that's easy to find; right of S Poppleton. Wonderful decor and great space to hang out. It was a really inexpensive brewery - I was honestly surprised. Only was $2.50 for the 5oz Trilemma that I got. The staff was so attentive and sweet - they let our group of 6 each try a ton of different samples (and they gave like 1.5-2.5 oz per sample...wow) since we we were unsure of what to get. Without us asking, they also brought a dog bowl with water for my friend's dog and said "Everyone drinks here," like can they be any more thoughtful?!! We also went up and asked for some water. After filling 3 glasses, they came to our table without asking and brought us a huge bottle of water in case we wanted more. Ironically, I'm not really someone who loves beers and drinks it often, so I don't really feel qualified to comment on the quality. I liked the trilemma enough and the many beers I sampled. Seemed like they had a good selection of interesting beers, including a lot of option for sours. They had a coffee lager, which tasted interesting. Just be wary that like most breweries, their selection of beers switches out so if you see a menu image or someone's review about a specific beer, they may not hve it. They didn't have ciders or kombucha today (Friday 4pm). I will say I had heard that this place had board games, but was disappointed to find out that they didn't. Just wanted to put that out there in case anyone else was also expecting the same. read more

I lived in Pigtown for 4 years and was extremely excited to get a brewery that was just a block away from my house. My roommate and I have visited this brewery a lot and are very supportive of them. The service here is impeccable, I haven't meet anyone I haven't liked. They are all really helpful. At least one of owners/brewers has always been there when I've gone. The others working there are usually their friends. Everyone has been very knowledgable and honest when it comes to deciding what to drink. There is a great variety of beers. I usually get a flight to start because they are always brewing something new and I am never disappointed. Their flight pours are also a good size so you don't feel like you're only getting a few sips worth. So I highly recommend getting a flight so you can try them all. They not only brew beer, they also have kombucha, cold brew and, newly during COVID, cocktails. I have only tried their kombucha and I have to say, as a picky kombucha drinker and I was impressed. Due to the location, they don't have outdoor seating BUT the interior is very spacious and I have never had trouble finding a spot to stand/sit by the bar or at a table. Their interior is has a cool vibe. They feature local art, have fresh flowers/plants on the tables and lots of wood and metal aspects. They are also pet friendly! They also don't have their own kitchen but they often have pop-up kitchens, that are usually vegetarian or vegan, which is so interesting and whenever I've tried the food, it's been sooo good! Tip: If you don't feel like you want a flight and don't want to risk ordering a full-sized beer you might not like, you can always ask for a taste. They are always willing to let you try before you buy. COVID: The brewery has been closed but they have been offering Saturday pickups; walk-ins and pre-orders. Their beers go fast so I would recommend pre-ordering. Follow them on Instagram, @suspendedbrewing so you can stay up to date with what they are doing. read more

Not even a beer lover but I do like the vibe the Suspended has going on. They take their craft very seriously and they are very knowledgeable about everything that they pour. The owners are so nice and gracious and they will answer any questions that you may have and they can steer you to the best options on tap depending on your likes and dislikes The inside is great with the bar in the middle and all the brewing equipment in the back you can take a peak at the process behind the making of the beer they served. Great place to try some new flavor profiles and enjoy the chill atmosphere read more

Suspended Brewing Company - Popped in for a flight, fantastic lineup right now - Breweries Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

PSA: THEY ALLOW DOGS. My alma mater hosted an alumni event at Suspended. There was a decent amount of people by the time my friends and I showed up. We each received a free drink ticket and headed straight towards the bar. Disclaimer: beer is not my first choice when it comes to alcoholic beverages but I was very impressed by the service. The female bartender asked what we wanted and my friend told her that I'm not a beer person. She immediately wanted to change my mind and offered to give me samples; I basically received an entire flight. There were a couple lagers, a stout, and a hard cider. Even though there were people waiting to order drinks, she took the time to explain each beer and their respective flavor profile. I ended up ordering a 16. oz hard cider. Still am not a beer person (or at least not yet) but I would definitely recommend checking it out. Feel free to bring your dog as well! It's a cashless establishment so no need to worry about carrying change around while you're in the city. Also, there's an Ekiben inside that has vegan options that'll pair well with your drink. read more

This place is such an amazing gem. The interior is a bit strange. I guess it used to be a movie theater and probably something else, too, so it feels like a cat that's had a few lives already. You can street park with relative ease and they have a really solid selection of brews. I loved our server, who ran through the list and gave us some recommendations that really impressed us all, despite my small group's varied tastes. I feel like this would be the perfect brewery on a gloomy or snowy day to just get cozy with a book and a beer at! read more

This is an awesome small brewery with a huge heart. The beers are excellent and the owners are passionate about their craft and the integrity of their products and the way they treat all who enter. This establishment is about as environmentally and ethically friendly as possible. The space has a cool vibe with local art and artisans contributing to the space. Along side the palpable effort to promote acceptance and love, the beer shines! One can have a good time and feel good doing it at this Pigtown Main Street brewery. They don't serve food but often have events with pop-up kitchens, often with vegan as the principal offering rather than the option. This place cares about every person who enters and what they consume while inside their establishment. read more

The beer was great. They had a wide range of different beers available that fit each person's unique tastes. What really stood out was the incredible service. We arrived during a busy time and there were few seats available. We moved two times to accommodate bigger groups. It was no issue at all for us, but the owner came up and gave us a complimentary bottle of one of their beers to go due to us moving around so much. He went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience. The staff was all incredibly friendly and welcoming. We would most definitely go back read more

First time here! Came for a friends birthday party and was a great location. Parking is street but I didn't have a problem finding a spot. Inside is really nice, lots of big tables but wish they have chairs. Bartenders were really nice, I ordered a flight. You can get as many as you want (4 was about $12 with tip). FYI they do NOT accept cash! I really liked the Trolly beer, would definitely get that again. They also don't have food but do allow you to bring your own. I biggest complaint was the temperature inside. It was a hot day and probably the same temperature inside. Even noticed some people standing below a vent to cool off. Other than that this place is really nice and good for larger parties. read more

I love everything about this spot, I can't say it enough. Great addition to Pigtown! read more

So the good news about Suspended Brewing Company is their great beer and fun hipster vibe. Unfortunately, their beer is so good that they run out of fan favorites pretty quickly. The place also has high ceilings which make for an open feel but it does get loud. The bartenders are all weekend beer warriors who love their jobs and do them well. They are justifiably proud of their beery offerings. The midatlanticism was great and it's peachy twin was even better. The special bourbon barrel imperial trolly problem was even better, rich and bitter with great depth of barrel flavor without being cloying. They were out of Persian Sour that day so I guess I will have to go back, darn. They could use some sool bar snacks too. read more

The Suspended Brewing team is bringing great beer to Pigtown! Their shop is set up in a previously vacant space on Washington Blvd that is an old theater and church. They've worked with local neighborhood artisans to build out the space and source materials, so enough cannot be said about the excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail and ambiance. The team highly values zero waste culture and green sustainable practices- ask them about sourcing their organic brew materials, reclaimed wood furnishings, and their zero-waste composting program (hint: spent grains go to a MD pig sanctuary, quite poetic for a Pigtown business!) The beer is top notch. Josey's obsession and attention to detail really shines through with their exceptional line of craft brews. As a small brewery, they're getting into really interesting and funky brew processes- so if you're a beer geek, you will definitely feel at home at Suspended. At the time of this writing, they're awaiting one final license to offer regular taproom pours, but until then, be sure to follow them on social media and sign up for a tour of their facilities with a tasting. Then take home a growler of their amazing beer and wonder how we ever lived in Baltimore without this shining example of a neighborhood-friendly, sustainable, and exceptional brew house. read more

Huge fan of this space - they did an excellent job decorating and making it appealing. When we went, it was packed, but we were still able to find space at a standing table for our group. I like how the tasting room is much larger than others in Baltimore. It really has a great feel. The beer itself isn't my favorite, but certainly drinkable, and the atmosphere still makes it a completely worthwhile place to go. Note to guests that it's safer to head EAST (left out of the doors) than west from this space -- that's also where more food is. read more

I have been here twice now. Both times the ales were superb and unique. I also met some interesting people. The place was full both times (around 6 pm). I don't know how the word got out. My favorites were those ales with a lot of hops, especially the double IPA. The Saison was quite interesting and good as a summer refresher. For the non-drinker there is a ginger, and coffee.

I recently went here for Suspended Brewing Co.'s opening. It's a new brewery in Pigtown. Pigtown, which is located on the West side of MLK Boulevard, is considered to be the next big "up-and-coming" neighborhood in Baltimore. There seems to be a lot of interest in revitalizing this area. I went with two friends to the opening. There was very friendly staff waiting at the door to I.D. customers, give bracelets, and give raffle tickets out. While I was there, I had a few different beers. The one that I appreciated the most was their sour beer. It had this vibrant pink/purple hue and had a great flavor profile. I also tried the Trolley Problem, which was an English Stout. The place was pretty packed and bar staff did a great job facilitating the amount of orders they were getting. By the time my friends and I left, there was a line out the door to get in. Apparently the staff was only letting a certain number of people in at a time. It was a beautiful day outside, so waiting a little bit for a good beer would be worth it. My major critique, overall, was the pricing. I understand that this business is just starting out, but other "small" brewery taprooms charge a lot less for growlers to get filled. The price for individual beers was about the same as in a bar during non-happy hour times. read more
