Luminous Brewhouse

Two blocks down the street from Black Tooth Brewing. Extremely limited on street parking. Large Taproom with a pool table. Lots of seating, and a few seats at bar. Bartender, when not in the back talking to brewers, was friendly and knowledgeable. Sports on TV behind bar. 13 taps plus kumbucha. Empty cooler of canned beers to go, but they do sell crowlers. My IPA was ok. I might return if in town.

 

 

Meh.

Very quiet on a Saturday afternoon. Had to go to the attached restaurant. Reportedly they are moving soon to allow expansion - hopefully that will improve the vibe. They may lose their connection to food, however.

 

 

 

 

such a cool spot, right across the street from the other brewery in sheridan. apparently used to be a standalone taproom in a warehouse, but has since been joined into a restaurant that has occupied the rest of the building. just a few barrel brewhouse in the back, looking to expand from what i understand. seems like a husband and wife team at the helm on the brew side. the space is awesome, very rustic rural montana and wyoming frontier feel to it, taxidermy and native american stuff adorn the walls, reclaimed wood all over. the restaurant is mostly on one side, while the brewery area maintains its own bar, with food available there too. we sat at that bar, although there was another larger one for the restaurant as well. they had maybe ten beers on, and the four we had were all excellent. for me, the dark barleywine and the java moon coffee were the clear winners, but there were no weak links. the ipa was the most generic, but still quite tasty. all the folks in here from the woman in charge to the bartender to the other patrons were really genuinely kind, and interesting in ensuring that we had a great time, and we surely did. such a mellow place to chill and watch the rain fall, warm up. its only missing a fireplace, everything about this place was fantastic, and although we didnt eat, the food also looked killer. i cant wait to go back and drink through the rest of their beers and have a meal. i think i will have the chance in late november!

Just had my second visit there. I live over 1,000 miles away but have family in town, so looks like my visits will be limited to once a year.
My first stop here was last summer (2014) just shortly after they opened. Hit a quiet afternoon so got a quick tour of their operations.

A year later they are starting to get into the swing of things. They are connected to a larger restaurant which provides their food service.

If you're looking for something 'western' feeling, this place has it.

As far as the beer goes, they still have a ways to go. Things tend to be on the thin side as far as taste and feel. Also a bit sweet for my taste as well. The pale ale stood out as a decent brew though.

Hopefully they keep rolling and honing their brewing skills and hope to stop back next year.

 

 

 

What a funky brewhouse in sheridan. Great new brewery with a great line up and great staff. Not a tv bar however they have a great line up of games and great conversations to be had. Strongly recommend this brewhouse if you're in the area
