We visited the winery on Valentine's Day, which fell on a Saturday this year. We had made a…read morereservation in advance and arrived a bit early, but were seated right away. Tables are reserved for 2.5 hours, so I assume the party before us didn't use their full time. We ordered an appetizer and a bottle of wine. The brie cake was delicious--even for someone who doesn't usually like goat cheese (it was layered in)--but unfortunately, no one in our group enjoyed the cheesecake. The winery is both dog- and kid-friendly. All the parents we encountered kept their children supervised, which is a winery rule and one I really appreciate now that we have kids ourselves. Most of the dogs were also very well behaved, though one was repeatedly growling at passing dogs, which was off-putting. While the winery can't control every patron, we choose to leave our dog at home when she's not in a social mood, and it would be nice if all dog owners did the same.

The live singer wasn't really my style, but others seemed to enjoy it. We did a wine flight, and our wine server (Nick) was super knowledgeable and helped us find what we liked. I even bought my mom a bottle to take home. It was a bit confusing at first, but the lady at the front was so kind and explained everything. There was plenty of seating, and we hung out upstairs in the lounge with a great view. The only thing I didn't love was the food--we got a charcuterie board, and I'm not sure I'd get it again. But overall the experience was still wonderful. Everyone was very nice, and we'll definitely be back! Also there's a cute kitty that lives on the property she's super friendly and sweet

Beers were pretty decent. I really enjoyed the Toasted Lager, Helles and Irish Red -- I am a more traditional beer drinker. But they have a huge selection from dark and toasty to fruited to IPA. I think you would easily find at least one beer here that everyone in your party would enjoy! PLUS - food is pretty good. It's not gourmet, but it is a cut-above some other local breweries for sure. I wasn't overly hungry so I had the chicken and lemongrass potstickers, which were extremely tasty... really enjoyed :) The atmosphere is great and there are lots of tables inside and outside. I think you might need to reserve special outdoor seating around fire pits, etc., but there is a significant number of first come, first server tables as well. We were a part of 8 in the middle of the afternoon and had no issue finding a table on a sunny Saturday. Their outdoor area is expansive and family and pet friendly too. Be on a look out for their various events and vendors on their website to see what else to check out while you are enjoying the brews.

Brewery - 5stars Love the beer - 5stars…read moreAtmosphere - 5stars This poor review has Nothing to do with those things, it's the indoor entertainment that's the problem. No not the caliber of players, no not the music genre... it's the volume! Three times we've been with friends and the volume inside is almost an assault on the ears (.. and my wife says I'm hard of hearing!). We love, love, love live music. Local artists? Incredible! But, for the volume of the music to become the focus of the day, you'd best be The Rolling Stones! We may have come out to hear someone play, but most importantly we've visited to share good times with our friends, catch up, and laugh. The music should bring ambiance, NOT be the focus - for us its kinship, beer and socializing, which we cannot do with the volume of the music so loud. We will continued to visit Old 690 but will stay away if they have entertainment indoors.

They had a great (but not overwhelming IYKYK) draft list. The owner and beertender were so kind and helpful. I appreciate their guidance on my annoyingly intense dislike of all hazy, juicy, or milkshake-y beers. Just stop. Also, a surprising amount of space within the brewery from what you expect from outside. Hung out and worked in the loft which I highly recommend for study groups or non-study groups. But then I joined everyone else outside in the fantastic set up: a food truck, generous amount of seating, great conversation with locals, and such a talented singer/songwriter performing. Very happy I visited on a Friday. Truly disappointed that this gem of a place isn't in my neighborhood. I would be a regular to the nth degree!

I make it a point to stop in whenever I'm in the area since there's always a tap takeover of some sort. Most recently it was Monkish IPAs dominating the board. This was my first time getting food upstairs of the retail space. The service was great and the space, while small, is pretty welcoming. The bar is neat and I would definitely sit there next time. They've got a few TVs around showing sports for those interested. I came with my mom and we just got a few apps to pick at while I tried some 5oz pours. The food was solid, if pricey. The "squash chips" were more like "squash cutlets" in that they were pretty thick. They tasted excellent, though and the panko was nicely fried. The charcuterie is hard to mess up but for the price I don't think I'd do it again. We saw some folks getting fantastic looking sandwiches so I may have to give one of those a try next time I'm around and don't have other plans.
