Great looking brewery with a very good selection of craft. The location was very spacious with plenty of seating at the large and long bar, and plenty of seating otherwise.

This place never disappoints. Great beer selection and always great quality and feel. Food can always be better, but this is a destination to relax and sample a few good beers. It's also in a really nice town you can walk through and experience the night. Entertainment if they have any is relaxing and overall and excellent vibe.

Brewpub with a nice menu. Nice selection of taps, plenty of styles, choose your own flight option. Food offerings meant earlier opening times. Kind of quiet, delicious food, decent prices. Staff seemed somewhat knowledgeable.

This is absolutely the best brewery in the DE Valley to go to, to buy a growler. No ripoffs here. All the growlers are reasonably priced at just $10. You can't beat that, and the beer here just gets better and better over the years!

This place is a really good addition to the area! Great for a fun night out! I was there in winter, but they have a really nice looking outdoor seating area. We ate pizza and a sandwich, and both were pretty good. The beer is good also. I like their huge wooden slab tables and glass wall. Check it out!! A 4/5 score in Phoenixville is worth checking out!!

stopped by for a few beers on a Saturday night. Brewpub is in a strip mall. Smaller inside than I expected - there are tables for dining, and then a fairly large bar, with windows through to the brewing tanks. They've got about a dozen beers on tap, a mix of year round and seasonal/one-off. Plus a cask conditioned beer on hand pump. good variety, and solid beers.

My wife and I took the hour drive to Phoenixville yesterday for lunch.
The brewery is located in a strip mall, right off of Route 113. It's not the most scenic of locations, but it's functional enough. The interior is a pretty open and lets in a good amount of light. We sat at the bar, which is a light-colored wood and rather deep. Behind the bar, you have pretty good visibility of the brewing operation.
A major snowstorm was on the way, so at 1 PM on a Friday, the bar was pretty full of people getting growlers filled. There were a few tables having lunch, as well.
There were about 15 beers on-tap, in addition to 3 casks. I had a one-off festbier, as well as their Odyssey IPA and London Porter on cask. I have to say, I was very impressed by their cask conditioning.
Food was good. We had the pierogies (very good) and the French onion soup (excellent). I had the pretzel burger (solid, but overcooked) and my wife has the grilled cheese (very good). Prices are reasonable, totally in-line for solid bar food.
Our bartender was very attentive, without being overbearing.
In addition to growlers, Sly Fox has all of their canned and bottled beers available for takeout. I bought a mixed case of 12 Pikeland Pils and 12 Helles for a pretty reasonably $33.
It was a good time, with good beer and good food. I'd definitely visit again.

Functional space, though somewhat stoic, in a suburban strip mall in PA. It was November so the outdoor seating was closed, but that looked like a nice area for a brew. There were about 15 beers on tap, which you could create your own sampler. The variety was good, though I find the basic stuff (Phoenix Pale, Rte 113, etc) to be at the top of the list. Had a small dinner, good selection to b had, food was pretty good. Overall, worth stopping by and checking out, though not a destination location

I have visited this place a few times -once for the goat races which is an annual event that attracts many based on the German music food and beer theme. I find this place to be a cozy place and a good one to enjoy a draft -They have bottles available like their Saison vos which I shared. The service is decent and atmosphere is pleasant I would recommend stopping in if you havent checked them out -I personally like the saison but they also have a decent pilsner, pale and the MaiBock if on is great this time of year

Pretty average, though the food was better than average. It didn't help that the saison I tried was very overly floral.
