    Nice indoor/outdoor spot right on a lake. They are dog and kid friendly! Beer is cold and the atmosphere is even better. They also have a birria taco truck parked next door. Staff is also very friendly!

    Toma Citra and Straight Outta Lakeland. Yum!

    Korean BBQ food truck tonight was really good. Some special seasonal beers on tap that we had to try. Super fast service. Fantastic and fun live music bingo.

    We were exploring downtown Lakeland, and found ourselves in walking distance of this brewery. We arrived around 1230 on Veterans Day, and were surprised to see that it was fairly busy having just opened for the day. We were able to grab a couple of stools at the bar, but there is plenty of seating, both indoor and outside. Bartenders were very friendly and I opted to start with the #Freedom, which is a light ale. My husband opted for a mix of their red ale and the #Freedom. Basically, they created a Yuengling for him. They have a large selection of beers to choose from, and everybody from the bartenders to the manager to the brew masters are incredibly friendly.

    Came here as a stop over before heading all the way back home in Central Florida. Beer selection is great and the employees are so friendly. They let you have unlimited samples until you find the one you want. Health care heroes get 20% off the bill! How awesome!

    4.0* (out of 5) Food: n/a Atmosphere: 4* Value: 4* Service: 4* 09/30/2023 Saw this on the way to lunch with our son after touring his latest jobsite, so had to stop for a flight on the way home. A solid brewery with a good selection of beers to satisfy most tastes. Looks like a great stop to enjoy live music also, although it wasn't yet happening when we were there.

    We have been here a hundred times and we always have a great experience here. The staff are always on point with good suggestions and quick service. The ambiance is casual and laid back. The food trucks here are also always great. Tonight we had Filipino food that was super tasty. We always have a great experience here.

    Swan Brewery has a variety of beers, ciders, wines and mixes of the above. The drink menu changes with the season so you can expect something new almost on every visit. If not with the drinks, definitely with the food as they have a different food truck every day so make sure you check their Instagram page to see who will be there before you go. They have inside and outside seating under a canopy and they're conveniently located across one of the many lakes here in Lakeland. This lake has a walking path so if you go on a Tuesday, a local running group is there and that evening you can play a round of music bingo where you can win some fun prizes, including a Crowler! Friendly, outgoing staff makes this easily one of my favorite hangouts to go too after work. Grab a drink, sit outside and watch the sunset over the lake to call it a day. Again, make sure to follow their Instagram page for more information!

    I really enjoy going to Swan Brewing for a quick beer, trivia night, or for a simple date night (although I have yet to try one of the food trucks). The beer selections are very good, and I love the blended options of beer and wine/ champagne (beermosa or similar to this). It may not necessarily be my favorite brewery in Lakeland - I like more unique local options- however, I always look forward to going for an enjoyable evening. It's also a bonus that the staff is friendly, and the picnic tables are an awesome touch!

    This is one of my favorite breweries. They have great indoor seating and even more outdoor seating under tents. It has an industrial ambiance. The bar tenders are always helpful and friendly. Their beers are outstanding. The Downtown Brown is my all time favorite hazelnut beer. My only complaint is that they are not closer to my home in west Tampa. I can't wait to come back again soon!

    Nice ambiance. We played the pinball machines. They have a jukebox thing. It is good for big gatheringa

    The delicious Schwansteiner!

    We did a quick search for a brewery in Lakeland and boy am I glad that Swan Brewing popped up first! The space is so nice and great to hang out in and the beer was delicious. The bartenders were so nice and helpful. They had great seating options inside and outside as well. On our next trip to Lakeland Swan Brewing will be high on our list!!

    Great patio, small indoor. Have trivia some nights and it gets busy. Have beer and wine and a nice view of the lake if one likes to watch a sun set over water. Yes yes we will be back.

    My husband and I stopped by Swan Brewing one Saturday evening on our way to the Strawberry Festival. Swan Brewing is located right across from the Lake and there is plenty of covered outdoor seating. However, we decided to sit inside at the bar as it was a bit windy outside. Service - A+. We were immediately greeted by the staff and had superior service the entire stay. Beer - A. I ordered a flight and enjoyed all my selections. I always order a flight when at a brewery. I love trying as many options as possible. They had a food truck outside but we had later plans to eat. I will be back when I am in the area and I highly suggest if you are in the area that you make a stop at Swan Brewing.

You can do a mixed drinks or have a straight shot. They also have cans to go. I tried the yellow, energy and endurance I think and it gave me a red bull kind of awakening with out my heart beating out of my chest. It made my mouth and lips slightly numb, but I b liked it all the same. The place is big on the inside, has a front patio and parking and also a back deck. There are free video games, board games, and a pool table. There is also a kids area with toys. I am assuming it is a kids play area, but could also be for the child in you. My suggestion is if you'd like a clean, happy experience, come to Botanical Brewing and have some fun.

Upon arrival there was plenty of parking and easy access to the entrance. Once going inside we were greeted by the guy working and offered a FREE shell.. also, he gave us shots of all the different taps to try! It was a really cool experience, and they do a "cheers" or raise your shell "boola" (which I may be spelling wrong) to welcome you! He was kind enough to give us a good back ground of the place, its items, and what's featured. They had live music going which got pretty loud, but he had them turn it down! He mentioned they have only been open 2 months, but I could imagine once people recognize it is here it could get pretty popular! One thing I am quite impressed with is their hours 8 am - 2 am daily! Plus they have events all the time, such as paint and sip! I will say I tried a lot of different drinks so after leaving I didn't feel the best, but once I got home I felt fine! I highly recommend stopping in if you get the chance!

I enjoy their red sangria (they have white as well, haven't tried it.) which is pretty delicious. They have a food truck every evening they are open generally from 3 until 8. We have tried a lot of them and most are very tasty. Our favorite so far was a Hawaiian lumpia (like spring rolls) food truck. They are very dog friendly. People not only bring their own fur kids but will take a dog out of the shelter for a few hours and bring them out. It's very heartwarming. Inside is clean. It's really chilly for us so if it's not raining we tend to go outside. There is frequent live music as well. You can find lineups on their Facebook page. Bartenders are very knowledgeable and nice!

It was rested in Buffalo trace bourbon barrels, and while the buffalo trace is not very pronounced, you still get the flavor, especially after it warmed a little bit. I opted for the Irish red ale, which was incredibly good had the super sweetness when you first take a sip, very caramel tones and notes, but then mellow is very quick.

But... seems like every time I come back there are less and less beers. I am worried that they are not going to make it and for craft beer enthusiasts this is the best thing in the area. Especially because anything else close is 20 plus minutes away. With that being said, this would be a great place for groups or to start a low key date. There is craft beer, wine, cider, THC beverages and they even have a few mixed drinks as well as JELLO SHOTS! All the mixed drinks are wine based liquor which is quite progressive. They don't really have food, but there is a Publix in this same mall area, plus about 5 other restaurants including: Chinese, Japanese, sushi, burgers, Thai, pizza and donuts. To give you an idea of how it works, you give them a form of payment, they give you a card and you serve your own draft by the ounce. It is a great concept because you can pour yourself as much or a little as you want. And it tracks your spending so there are no surprises at the end of your visit. In addition, there are TVs, a jukebox and games. Tipping is optional, but there is friendly service and every couter person I have interacted with has been fantastic. I would highly recommend this hidden gem and with more support, especially from the craft beer culture, maybe this place will survive. And to be perfectly transparent, this is mostly because I selfishly want a convenient place to get craft beer on draft. Come visit Tap that Beer House, it is an experience all it's own.
