Being a couple miles from our house - this is our go-to place to eat out. It also helps that they have nearly 70 beers on tap, a nice selection of wine, and a few ciders/meads as well. The atmosphere is authentic an German Brewhaus/Hall with high ceilings and large tables imported from Germany - as well as an outdoor Beer Garden with fire pits and more seating. During the summer the windows get opened to enjoy the weather as well as downtown Washington.

The food is fantastic - everything we have gotten - as well as our friends - has been excellent and more importantly, consistent. The smoked scent carries for a mile and envelops you upon walking in the doors - and that clearly continues in the smoked foods. You'll never leave hungry - or thirsty.

Awesome Experience. Stopped by during lunch hours on a Thursday. Their In House beer game is top notch (IPA and Stout) with a truly knowledgeable and conversational bar-tender.

This place has 65 taps of varying styles. Because of all the selection, samples are 6 oz pours. I actually like this quite a bit. The screens above the kitchen show the level of all the kegs, how empty/full they are.
The food is good, there's apps, lunch and dinner to be picked from. The servings are heavy duty. The bartender today was knowledgeable and freindly. A great experience everytime we stop.

Great atmosphere, reminiscent of a German beer hall. Both the food and the beer selection are top notch. Definitely try the burnt ends!

Cool beer garden. Great weekly events. Staff friendly and helpful. They brew their own beer plus have 70 taps. A hidden jewel. They were voted BEST Craft Beer Bar in Michigan. You can tell.

Awesome wide open area, excellent food and over 70 taps. Always seem to have a special event going on. I've had excellent service in attendance but one of the barmaids is really rude and condescending online so gotta knock the service a bit. Beer selection is great and food options are well above average specializing in BBQ. Worth a stop!

Been to Brown Iron Brewhouse quite a few times as it's very close to my home. The beer selection is top notch and constantly rotating up to 66 taps indoor plus I think 4 outdoor in the beer garden during the warmer months. Service and knowledgeable bartenders are great. I recommend sitting up near the bar area for best viewing of their "live" tap list from Digital Pour. What's cool about Digital Pour it allows you from your computer or smartphone to view the status of each keg so you know when your favorite is close to being emptied and you can hurry on up to enjoy the last drops. Food started off pretty good, but has gotten overall much better in selection and how quickly you can get your food.

Brown Iron is a much needed craft beer bar in Northern Macomb County!

I was very impressed with their tap list- they must have 60+ taps, with some very hard-to-find stuff.

We attended the Bells Craft Beer Strolling dinner, which was VERY well executed. They had some rare beers (The Wild One!), and the food was top notch. I look forward to coming back to this place frequently in the future!
