Great #localspot delicious #desserts, and right next to the bakehouse. Their beer events are amazing, they get stuff from all over the world. Don't be afraid to ask for opinions or samples #winning
- Billie GoatGruffOctober 3, 2015A top rated US beer bar. They bring in only excellent beers and the staff is knowledgeable about what they are serving. Best place in HR to learn why beer is so great. Cheeses are pretty good, too!
- The beer, the cheese and charcuterie plates, grilled cheese sammiches...I love this place, especially during 43 Hours of Dark!
Tess DavisSeptember 5, 2015Beet selection is the most innovative in hampton roads. Probably one of the best beer bars in the country!
Marcus SmithNovember 25, 2012Perfectly curated list (Mikkeller, Italian microbrews, Dieu du Ciel) and a great vibe. I'd say one of the best beer bars in the US.
- Best craft beer place I've been to in VA. Great selection and better staff. Beer advocate was definitely right
Justin HicklFebruary 24, 2011These people don't know what they are talking about. Great bar, great staff, great selection! Highly recommend! Will drive from 804 to just come here.
This place has become the only place I go for beer. Great atmosphere and awesome, knowledgeable staff.
When in doubt ask for help, these people are incredibly knowledgeable about their beers.
Meri BirdwellJanuary 16, 2011Great beer, but if the place is packed, you're kind of screwed. We saw a table full of kids last night. At a bar? Kind of weird.
- Don't bother looking at the beer menu, sit at the bar and ask Ben or Malia
FudgeJumbles .comDecember 20, 2010growl growl growl...don't forget today is the growler presale.. I just got mine.
Anne K.January 8, 2011Capacity is very limited. No seat. No brew. No one regulating capacity at the door :(
Worst customers in the world. Somehow the coolest bar in the 757 attracts the bitchiest people.

"The pizza here is DELICIOUS. if you have to order one, got for the large. It's a bit on the pricey side but it's worth it. Can't go wrong with any flavour."
