Lively downtown lunch crowd on a sunny Wednesday afternoon. Corner location with openings on two side, covered walkway, and sidewalk patio is expansive and airy. Long bar runs against the right wall, opposite the glass encased brewhouse. I was just there picking up takeout, and was a bit surprised at how pre-covid the place felt. Service was friendly, but they screwed up my phone order... annoying. I got a growler of Four Schwartzmen, and it was excellent; the chicken quesadillas were nothing special.

Cool industrial feel. A little loud. Have to yell to hear each other on a Thursday afternoon. Friend and I both had 3 beers each and food. Food was OK. Not bad but can't say great. The beers were the center point of our visit.

Good solid place in the Heart of Chandler... I thought the food was awesome... Great place to grab a beer and a burger and look out onto the plaza... Service was good even on a busy evening... I'd defiantly hit this place up again...

I got a hole in the wall table for 1 person, so altogether the vibe was pretty poor for me. I can see it being a lively place for social drinkers, but I'm a beer poet and need my introspection. I was right by the kitchen, so I saw a lot of food coming out and it looked and smelled scrumptious, will definitely go back for the food and give a more accurate rating. I drank SunSpot Gold and Sex Panther. Service was slow, but it was very busy. Waitress was cute. Not a broad selection of draft admittedly. Quality was a solid 4, I love their beer. Will have to go back for certain.

2pm on a Sunday. Place was packed, about a 10 minute wait for a table. Burgers, onion rings, fries, fish n chips, and short rib tacos were great. Service was good. Beers are decent but not to the 4/5 rating, imo. Noisy as hell/lively, but, food was worth the stop, to me.

San Tan is one of my home town favorites. The vibe is always fun, great music, outdoor sitting areas, and always fun crowds. They have live music nights and other activities. The beer is excellent, San Tan also cans so all their beer is available at the store (Outside Special Items only at Brewery). The food is awesome, staff is very nice. If your looking to have a fun day out San Tan is worth the stop.

A cool place to have beers in a heat desert. The selection was average but the beers quenched the thirst. I am glad I made the stop to rehydrate in this part of the desert.

Great spot with a bunch of beers on tap. Lots of different styles available. They tout their beers as "southwestern style" or something if that nature. I took this to mean a bit on the watery side. Not bad, just everything I tasted was a bit lacking in lingering flavor. Didn't eat, but the food looked awesome. Servers and staff were nice and attentive.

This is one of the places that got me in to brew pubs. They have great beer and amazing food. The menu changes regularly and they have delicious specials, guest beers, special brewery only beers etc... They are definitely worth checking out.
