Buffalo Commons Brewing Company

 

(#4 of 49) My wife and I stopped in to try their beers. This place is difficult to find because it sits about 150' off the street at the end of a narrow driveway that is mostly obscured by farm implements on display at a dealership and by some trees. Only a vertical 'brewery' flag was noticeable at the turn-in, but you can also look for a tall short-wave radio tower that is behind the building.

The setting here is a metal industrial building with adjacent parking. The pub is located where all of the brewing equipment is located. A short bar is used to serve the beer only, and there is a mish-mash of tables and chairs to sit and drink the beers.

We ordered a sampler flight of 6 beers which was all that they had on tap. The beers are served in small plastic water cups on a paddle. Each of the beers was brewed true to style, and we felt that each exceeded average in varying degrees. We scored the beers from a C+ to a B grade, and our overall score was a 3.63 rating. The notable beer was Sour with No Name.

There is no food here, although pretzels are complimentary. This brewery makes beer that is good enough to try to find it, but nothing will knock your socks off.

 

Tiny taproom, and very simple setup. Just 4 or 5 metal tables with chairs, setup in the middle of the brewing room. Beer is served in solo cups, from a homemade 6 tap keezer behind a short bar. Run solely by the owner/head brewer. Very interesting stop, highly recommended. Much different than the standard taproom experience.
