    I stumbled upon this place because I was looking for a non-bougie sounding brewery.. and I wasn't the only one because the other patrons here were amazing! The owner, David, sooo fun and hospitable to everyone. They've been open 10 years. I had a sample of Texas Blood IPA even though I'm not an IPA girl but the flavor was really good. I stuck with the blonde ale, Break Free. The seltzer* they had tasted dangerously good.. so I got some to go lol. *TAPWTR Blood orange mimosa seltzer - sugar free hard seltzer that actually has good flavor compared to...... They do flights and sell tamale and snacks. There's restaurants around and the beer garden is beautiful. The bathroom is super clean and automated (except the paper towels which are conveniently available).

    This may be one of the smaller breweries but they have some good staple beers. My favorite is the Texan blood orange. We walked in and the brew master let us know everything we would like based on our likes. She was very helpful and let us sample ones we were interested in. Cute place with the normal cornhole outside. If you don't like being outside, this brewery is not for you!

    The Texas Ale Project is a newish microbrewery in the Design District with a cool indoor atmosphere and decent beer menu. The TAP has engineered such memorably named brews as "Fire Ant Funeral" (in my top ten list all time best beer names), 50 Ft Jackrabbit, and Texas Blood. It was cold enough outside when we visited that we were unable to enjoy the garden seating. But, the inside of the bar area is clean and modern with plenty of space for various sized groups. A large metal, backlit sign dominates the back wall. Games are available for customer use. We played a sort of two-person version of Cards Against Humanity and laughed a lot. To the right of the main entrance is a large open room with a table where some peeps were playing beer pong. While the variety of spaces was nice, the parking lot runs in between the garden and the brewery building which created an uncozy distance. As we approached, a small amount of seating available by the door created a crowd of people who had to part so we could enter, odd and a little inhospitable since there was ample space inside. We attended for the launch of the Fist Full of Dollar Mexican Stout. A Dallas foot race routed down Riverfront Blvd made it difficult to park The beers we tried were solid but not remarkable. I was hoping for a stronger chocolate flavor and less hops. The IBU's seemed higher in general on the beer selections than my personal preference. She tried the Cotton Candy Pils and enjoyed it, but didn't love it. Again, we hoped for more flavor. We didn't get a strong welcoming vibe off the bartender. Might've been a long day, which we all have. It seems that the landscape of tap rooms has matured to the point that just "having one" isn't cool enough. After having tried a dozen or so, I'm finding that certain ones stand out. TAP has a cool room and set of dining spaces that could use a bit of homeyness added. If you like subtlety in your beer flavor and don't mind bitterness, you'll be a fan.

    First time here, today 2/29/20. Parking is non-existent. Have to park on the street and there aren't many spaces available. Asked to try a couple of their beers before deciding and after 2-3 samples was told we can order a flight...hmmm.... Felt like a suggestion that she didn't want to give us anymore samples. Actually watched her as the next people came in and she poured a samples then dumped 1/2 of it before giving it to the customer. WTH?? The beers were ok. Had the Thai Hazy IPA (nothing Thai or hazy about it) and the barrel aged stout. Both were good. About $6-8 a pour of 10-16 oz pour (in a dirty glass). Super small place (seating for 28 inside), but love the decor. Nothing makes up for crappy service though. Had one beer and left. Know your customer or you will lose them...

    Nice!

    First trip to TAP brewery, but not my first TAP beer. Took the fam for an after-Thanksgiving outing, and this place did not disappoint. Ordered a flight of some fantastic libations, pulled out some board games, and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. While not a large indoor taproom, there was plenty of seating avails in the brewery and outdoors. I'm not sure how long the taproom has been open, but it sure looked nice and shiny new to me. And now the beers. Let's start with the BBA dubbel. Nice flavor and true to the style. But my favorite was the 100 million Angels Singing DIPA. Hazy and nice backend flavor. And you can't go wrong with their Texas Blood IPA--juicy to the last drop. I'll be sure to visit again.

    Cool, chill spot to hang out with indoor and outdoor seating. They have some games like corn hole. Restrooms are really clean, but the beers here are nothing special, unfortunately. Tried their raspberry sparkling cider and it just tasted like a pilsner... No hint of raspberry at all. Also tried the porter and meh. They DO have food here now!! The vendor told me it only happened recently. The menu looks good!

    Great variety of beers, good atmosphere with food truck, ping pong tables and cornhole, needs more seating since it can definitely accommodate more, but overall great experience - stop by if you are in the area

This was my first time actually trying the food, and I was so impressed. My friend and I both ordered the Salmon Bowl with garlic aioli sauce--it was incredibly flavorful, fresh, and super filling! My husband took advantage of their Taco Tuesday special and really enjoyed his tacos. While he felt the rice and beans were a bit on the bland side, the tacos more than made up for it. To top it all off, the beer was nice and ice-cold, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. We had a fantastic night catching up and can't wait for our next visit!

They have a small parking lot and surrounding free street parking. I always get anxious visiting/ driving to new places in large cities, and I was so happy that parking was a non-issue. 2. The space! Covered outdoor space with misters to off-set the heat, a modern bar with several stools, and a variety of seat-yourself tables in the main bar and in the brewing area, there's a spot for everyone! 3. The beer! I LOVED the 2.6% beer option. It was a delight to slowly drink two pints and not feel bloated or tipsy. I love the variety of things they offered, since I was driving, I left the higher ABV beers to my partner. I loved the IPA and pilsner. 4. COFFEEEEEEE! Coffee at a brewery is *chefs kiss* 5. The food! The food was AWESOME. Even if beer isn't your thing, I would argue this place would be a great option for dining. We shared a cheese board, and my friends ordered chicken fingers, a bacon burger, and ice cream - everything was beautiful (and completely devoured). Loved our visit to Manhattan Project! This place is a must-visit for all Dallas area beer lovers.

We would definitely go back to this brewery as we rally liked the beer the had on tap.
