Their pretzels are huge and fluffy and their fake cheddar cheese is great. I come here when i want to fill my heart with happiness.

Checked out this brewery in Freeport after coming across other places that had their beers…read more Generations is one of the main reasons to come here. It certainly has quite a few things on tap. A lot more in cans. They also have a few snacks. By the looks of the outside it wasn't anything special, just like a warehouse or something common. It's a lot more interesting inside. The taproom has enough room for the bar, and quite a few tables. Got a view into the back to see where the beers are made. There's a balcony where bands can play live music too. Beers are why people come of course. It's about $7 a pint. Best one we had of these was the Tawny Ale. This is an Irish Red of medium strength. It's about $12 for a soft pretzel. These are massive so they're great for sharing. One of the dips looked like peanut butter. This was actually fudge if you can believe it, and you can get cheese as well as mustard. For sure it's one of this city's main attractions. It's got lots of beers, and because it's in the Pretzel City, get one of those to munch on. They're closed Mondays and Tuesdays.

They have a variety of beers and one named after Freeport the Pretzel City! They have lagers, pilsners and ales. The environment is relaxing and the building stands out ! Since the main road is under construction , GPS did not help, but after we realized it kept rerouting us to the closed road. If in the area, stop in. Also their beer can be found in many locations in the Rockford area and some Binnys.

The rest was hard to chew and break apart. If they weren't so expensive I wouldn't complain. We spent $17.82 for 1 pretzel, a cup of mini pretzel dogs, sauce and medium soda. We spent $18.00 FOR STALE HARD FOOD! Shouldn't a popular place dispose of food after it has sat for a certain amount of time and cook fresh? I would be embarrassed to work there and sell food to someone KNOWING it was OLD!

I talked to a couple of ladies at the bar who said I had to come back to eat there for dinner and that's exactly what I did! My husband and I had dinner at 5PM at the bar. I ordered the Stube Salad and he had the Wiener Schnitzel with red cabbage and warm German potato salad. The salad was a very generous portion and the dressing was sweet and delicious. The Wiener Schnitzel was delicious!!! I ate half of my husband's dinner and I loved the cabbage and potato salad. Everything was great! Service was also friendly. I'm looking forward to going back! Also to note: we left a jacket behind and had to leave early in the morning the next day before the restaurant opened. We live about 2 hours away and I called the restaurant and they have the jacket. We asked if we could send a Fed-Ex package with a return and have them mail it back to us, the owner agreed. We are really grateful for the kind service!

There was more than enough for us to share. Service was very good and there is plenty of parking available. I will definitely go back on a day when I can enjoy their outdoor dining area.

The list of brews is impressive and they even make their own root beer which I enjoyed because it is not heavily carbonated.

They also have a huge selection to host events. To top it off our server Efstathia was friendly and helpful. I recommend this stop in Rockford.
