    Great IPA. Had to take some home!
    Audra M.

    Friends of ours have been talking about Une Année Brewery for a long time, so we were happy to have finally checked them out this weekend. The Fresh IPA was amazing. I should have tasted more, but did not because this beer was so tasty, so I stuck to that all afternoon. The venue is very child-friendly, and many board games are available. I really enjoyed the space and chill vibe. QR ordering is an option, and drinks arrived right away when one uses the online ordering system.

    1/2 lb Brisket + sweet potatoes

    This place is a hidden treasure. The beer is phenomenal and borderline visionary. Being a sour fan, I go for their creative brews, and of course their decadent meats. The beer: the stout / cherry sour blend was heaven, and you could taste both elements of the mixture clearly, and constructively! They really complement each other well, with rich chocolatey undertones and punchy sour cherry flavor. Sipped slowly, you're kicked in the teeth first with the effervescent cherry, then lulled into the rich dark beer to coat your tongue and ready you for the next sip. The food: brisket was 8.510 - ever so slightly dry, but still fork-tender. It wouldn't jump off the bone, but it'd at least fall off. Brilliantly strong smokey flavor, and a PERFECT crisped fatty layer on each slice. At a half pound plus the sweet potatoes, you'll be full upon finishing. The barbecue sauce was so good it took all of my willpower not to go home with a bottle available for purchase because I would be flying the next day and couldn't bring it through TSA. They should seriously consider scaling up and making this available for mass distribution. It is hands-down one of the best barbecue sauces I've ever had. We also tried the turkey sandwich, which was surprisingly flavorful. My normal expectation with turkey sandwiches is a rubbery, dry texture with bland, processed turkey flavor. This wasn't at all the case for this sandwich, which was clearly made in-house with quality ingredients, and which had its own spectacular peppered flavor and remarkably pleasant texture. It was so good that I might consider getting this next time instead of the brisket if I'm not hungry enough. The barbecue chicken pizza was a little bit underwhelming. I wouldn't think you would go to this place for pizza, but the member of our party who ordered it saw that we had ordered the other two dishes she was interested in, so I wanted to try something else.

    Fantastic brewery and eatery. They have a wide selection of food with an even wider selection of brews. The patio is nice in the summer and you can always grab a board game to play with the crew. They also have live music and markets from time to time throughout the year.

    Visited for the first time and I'm impressed. This microbrewery and BBQ restaurant located hidden in a Nikes industrial park is worth checking out. It looks like they brew about two dozen beers and they have pretty good BBQ. I dropped in for happy hour on a Friday (until 5:30 I think) and it was slow but you could tell this place is built to handle large crowds. There is a clean, open design to Hubbard Cave (the BBQ side?) and Une Année brewery on the other side of a large, comfortable seating area. Outside there are a lot of picnic tables under a cover and a small stage that I assume hosts live music on the weekend. I had the nachos with brisket and their take on the traditional dish was unique. It wasn't smothered in cheese and the brisket was in large chunks with onion, jalapeños and whole cherry tomatoes (rather than diced) had the feel of a stew with chips thrown in. I approve of the creativity and can't complain about the taste. Menu below https://order.toasttab.com/order-and-pay/une-annee-brewery-6343-gross-point-rd/17

    I've been wanting to try this place for quite a while and today my wife and I stopped in for lunch and a couple of beers. I would give the beer 5 stars, and the food a 2.5. We were seated and told that the ordering is done through a QR code you scan at your table. My scan did not work but my wife's did. The menu on the small phone was hard to really take in and appreciate the options. Because mine would not scan we had to pass her phone back and forth. I really hate QR codes and wonder why places just don't print and laminate menus. I went to the bar and actually took a photo of the beer menu above the bar and used that to order the beer. We ended up with a pulled pork sandwich and a chicken chimichurri sandwich. Beers included a sour, a Marzen, and a Kolsch. Very good beer!! My first bite of the pulled pork was one large gelatinous blob of fat!! That right there kind of killed it for me. I am not into fatty meats in the least! I've eaten lots of pulled pork and have never seen that large a concentration of fat in one dish. The chicken sandwich was good and substantial but the aioli was quite drenched on one end of the sandwich and overwhelmed all the other flavors. My plate also was not delivered with a fork or knife. A special request had to be made for that. Waitstaff was great and very helpful, but this will be a beer place and not a food place for us. I may give the food another shot some time, but I'm not in that place now. The fat-blob shock will take time to heal and with some therapeutic assistance, I may be able to try the food again. I do like Une Annee very much, I just wish my first visit was as magical as I hoped it would have been.

    I had heard of Une Année from colleagues who extolled its praises. It's in an industrial park area, down from Costco/Target on Gross Point. There's parking (although narrow) and a large outdoor area with picnic tables. It was a cold and blustery day so we dined in at lunch (my friend made reservations). There was no need to make reservations; only one table was occupied. There's QR codes on the table which so flummoxed my dining companions that it took about 10 minutes until they waved the white flag and beckoned a server over. I just thought it was funny because all of them were asking the same questions. (Why didn't I have the problems? They were treating me to lunch. From what I could see it looked overly complicated). Anyway, once our orders were placed, the food came out right away. My pulled pork sandwich came with Cole slaw and a side of mac and cheese. I don't eat the bun but I found the pulled pork to be really salty. I couldn't finish it. The Mac and cheese was ok, but it was bland. My friends ordered brisket and burgers and seemed satisfied with their lunch. My friend enjoyed their beer. I had high expectations so I was a little letdown that my meal wasn't what I was looking for. However, I would come back, maybe after work, sit outside and try again.

    What a delicious and fun spot! The beers were refreshing, the food was delicious, and the staff was friendly. On a nice day, their spacious outdoor patio is a great location to enjoy fresh air as well. It is definitely kid-friendly, but with a crawling toddler I wish I had known about how it's all wood chips and not pavement or grass!

    Une Annee Brewery is in a commercial district in Niles close to the Costco & Target. It's a bit tricky to find. Once you do find the establishment there are signs leading you to the correct entrance, and since it was very cold, windy, and their were flurries it seemed to take forever to find the entrance. There are more signs that tell your to check in at the bar. We spoke to a very nice bartender that told us which tables we could sit in and explained that food and drinks could be ordered through a QR code at the table. The website that the QR code takes you to for ordering is very easy to navigate, but there is so much information. There are many food choices, beer choices, merchandise choices, etc. We arrived at 2pm and did not place an order until 2:45pm! My first impression when perusing the website is that everything seemed so expensive. I'm used to breweries where you have at least three different choices on the size of beer you can purchase - usually 5oz, 10oz, and 16oz. This can vary depending on the ABV of beers. Usually you can create your own flights, have a smaller pour or even blend two beers if you like. While Une Annee has lots of choice of beers, they only have a few pre-ordained choices for flights. There are a couple of beers that they have chosen to mix, and then there are single pours of the beers themselves. Most of the sours were 12oz and between eight and nine dollars. The smaller pour is because they think 16oz is a bit much for a sour, and I agree, that is why I like to mix sours. We ended up sharing a burger, my husband got a German style pilsner, and I got an October fest. I will say the October fest is one of the best I've had this season. There is an outdoor seating area with lots of picnic tables and fund lights, so I think we are looking forward to returning when the weather is nicer and exploring more of the beer choices.

    A super fun place for a group hangout or for chilling on the back patio. There is a ton of space both inside and outside here. They have a lot of selections of both beer and bbq food, and you can order from your table with the QR code, which is very handy.

    Grilled chimmichurri steak sandwich that was a very tender 8oz grilled inside skirt steak
    Phil S.

    08/30/24 - if you've ever been to the Niles Costco the front of Une Annee Brewery/Hubbards Cave is located @ 6343 Gross Point Road. It's da big grey building. I stopped by here yesterday for a late lunch. I parked in the front and tried getting in only to realize the entry is all the way in the back of the building. The first thing you see in the back is an enormous outdoor patio area w/tables covers by a large canopy/tent. As you walk towards the back there's a sign that tells you to check in at the bar. Upon entering one of the first thing that catches your eye are the huge stainless steel beer brewing tanks. Besides the seating outside there is a huge dining area inside w//UPC on the table that serve as the menu. They have a huge assortment of different beers all brewed in their micro brewery. On the wall @ the check in bar there is a menu of 24 different beers all brewed in Une Annee Brewery. I also had a Tap 4 - 160z LIME PILS Our Refreshing PILS (German Pilsner) with Lime refreshing w/a limey taste Une Année, meaning "One Year" in French, began with a seasonal rotation of annual Belgian beers, which have since become weekly and bi-weekly releases. An Independent Craft Brewery, was born, in 2013, on the near west side of Chicago on Hubbard Street (near Hubbard's Cave), with the quest of making fine Belgian inspired ales for all beer lovers. I ordered a Grilled chimmichurri steak sandwich that was a very tender 8oz grilled inside skirt steak (arrechera) marinated and topped with chimichurri, placed on a soft sub roll with aioli, baby green and red lettuce, and grilled onions. All steaks are grilled to medium. Seasoned Frites or choice of side Included. This sandwich was delicious nice & tender. The entire wait staff is phenomenal. At least 4 or 5 people came by and asked me how I was, how the food was and if they could get me anything else. Overall it was a great dining experience. The food, the beer & staff made for a great meal in a very cool space w/the big brewing tanks of beers & the wood barrels of beer. What turned out to be a curiosity as I drive by everytime I go to Costco coming in from the back end off of Gross Point Road will make me come back for more.

    Are there any GF food/drink options here?

    Is Hubbard's Cave a separate brewery? Brewed here? Are both breweries' beers available to taste/purchase?

    No, Hubbard's Cave is Une Annee. A different name for different styles of beer (Hubbard = US, Une Annee = French). Both are brewed on site at the Niles location. Both available to drink and taste on premise or carry out purchases. They are open, no… Read more

The bacon jam was unique as well as the dollop of Ricotta on top. I liked the creamy texture of the ricotta on top. The other pizza that stood out was the New York Style white Pie. Simple, tasty and thinly crusted. It had a nice light garlicy taste with shredded basil on top of the mozzarella. We were celebrating my birthday and had a large party of 17. We stuck around for the Trivia Night which was a fun activity for the adults. I really liked the atmosphere-- a slew of different flavors of hard ciders, beer, wine to drink, talk with friends, and engage in a collaborative activity. I would definitely want to come back. The staff was friendly. I got to spin the wheel for my birthday and won a free beer. The server gave me a sample of the pickled pear hard cider before committing to a whole glass. I usually don't drink alcohol, but I enjoyed it. It felt appropriate to kick off the summer with this fruity beverage!
