    A bar with a large selection of rare Belgian beers is my kinda place! (Can't help it. Am Belgian, so a beer snob. Avoid the German & the American stuff. Trust me :-)

    Crowd is either 20 years older or 20 years younger than me! Great European beer selection. And across from the greatest bar in town!! The Midtown German Festival shoud be a barn burner!

    Clad in a Black Forest's worth of reclaimed wood, an indoor beer garden in Midtown complete with self-service beer taps. Read more

    Great beer list. Lots of weird beards, but that's not surprising. Guy dressed in full on civil war general's outfit, that was a first. Must of been the Craft Brewer's Conference that was in town.

    The Bauernwurst was amazing and the several brews I had were too! Thanks to this place, I'm only going to be able to look at 3 cars in a row before bathroom visits at the carshow!

    Get the platter! The beer list here is extensive. It's friendly and tends to get a little crowded but it's well-worth the trip!

    Good pub but a few beers leave you wanting more. Ask you bartender before deciding you know better that them. A little trust will save you some cash and skunk a bad beer.

    The food was delicious. Some of the staff wasn't as great. It seems like a place where if you sit at the bar you'll have a really great time.

    A handful of the draught beers are from PA. Cool feature is that you can purchase a bar key for $25 and have access to a selection of beers by the oz.

    Great selection of rotating, interesting craft beers. Knowledgable bartenders. Cozy and warm, like a log cabin in the middle of center city!

    Great place for craft beers, domestic and foreign. Catch a soccer game, or just enjoy any wurst platter. To go anywhere else is the wurst.

    If you can't find a beer here, it probably doesn't exist. Great space - they even have "self serve" options.

    How the beer wall works: buy a key for $5, load it up then skip the line at the bar and head straight to the wall to pour your own beer.

    German sausages and to wash it down, a nice German beer. Ambiance ranges from quiet to rowdy depending on sporting events.

    Where else can you sample different beers from a self-serve wall and keep the beer tap key?!

    Really expensive, but amazing for what you pay for. I would welcome more drinks in the $5-12 range, though....

    Ask for your veggie burger to be cooked well done or else it will be mushy like mine was ☹️

    This place is pretty inconsistent. They also told me they had a $20 minimum on cards during sips, which is insane.

    Great beer, but as for the food it is nothing like German! Don't waste your money unless your drunk and don't care... Don't get me wrong it taste good... But it is NOT German!!
