Located along the Mississippi River, and north of downtown Minneapolis. Parking lot with bicycle racks and street parking. Large main hall where the taps and ordering stations are located. The space extends to several spaces to the north and a smaller space to the south. Second level balcony also to the north. Large outdoor patio on asphalt and wood decking; this provides a river view. Interior is handsome with colors of charcoal black, gray, light and dark woods. Ceilings with exposed beams. Various seating options at tables, steps, and pews. TVs in the main room area. Good sound system throughout. Twenty or so taps with an extensive style selection, including barrel aged and wild ales. View of brewing equipment through interior windows. Coolers have cans and bottles to go. Cordial and helpful staff. Kitchen on site offers food, including pizza. QR code table ordering for table service. A large enough space to find ones own oasis, either inside or on the patio.

A very nice facility. Mostly street parking. along the river. Bicycle lock-ups. Urban. Large with lofty ceilings. A metal staircase. Large mostly hardscaped patio space in front. Nicely placed long bar at the main entrance and very friendly service. A curved bocce ball variant is featured. High tables. Tables, platform and bar are a mixture of N. American hardwoods: black walnut, maple, cherry, picked oak. As you walk around the bar the space becomes long and there is a balcony. Also an interesting platform feature with sitting-hight tables. Very tasty small menu with their pizzas being the main attraction. The beers are outstanding, clean, bright and are well thought out. It is a family-friendly place. I recommend it.

Sits back but on a pretty stretch of The Mississippi River . Has a nice outdoor seating area for warmer months. Ample seating as you walk in with the brewery operations visible in the rear a kitchen to the left . The pizza was very good as were the meatball quite impressed . They had at least 20 taps on with a wide range of styles all available in 4oz ,12 or 16 pours The beers i had were quite good. Very crowded inside and parking is at a premium, service was friendly but slow as there was always 15 people in line really enjoyed the visit , and will return

Great location with patio space overlooking the Mississippi River. Sleek, modern look on the the inside with ample seating. The beers were all very good. Lost Moon and Barrel Carving were the highlights. Service was good. Their pizza was pretty tasty. Certainly worth a stop in the Twin Cities.

Almost on the Mississippi River. Good amount of patio space. Modern, high ceilinged interior. Wide ranging beer styles and done well. They farmed out the cooking to a local Italian eatery, which does the cooking on premises. The pizza is quite yummy.

Really nice location for a taproom but parking seemed kind of limited on the weekend. Plenty of customers with most sitting outdoors on this nice summer day. Typical industrial decor with windows exposing the brewing operation. Service was prompt and friendly. Varied selection of styles of beer so everyone should be able to find something to enjoy. Every beer I have had from this brewery has at least been competently made if not very good. Did not try the food. Feather bowling makes a unique taproom centerpiece.

Pryes is in a modern looking warehouse like building with cool outdoor space that had amble community tables. The quality of the beer and food was very good. The service was fine....had to order from bar then bus hops delivered food and promptly cleared plates. There was only six beers on tap so I felt the selection was a bit limited. The food....really nice....Italian/pizza leaning.....very good.

This has a nice location in a light manufacturing area with a view of the Mississippi. Has feather bowling, a nice patio for the summer and food. The crowd is mixed with locals, people stopping by after work and people there for the beer. A comfortable spot.

i have been wanting to check this place out since they opened up. its a beautiful brand new taproom, decorated up nicely for the holidays, it sure feels warm and cozy, but its right across the street from the river, and im sure it will be an airy and relaxed place in the summertime too, but it felt homey and cozy with the holiday decor. the bar is right there on the right when you roll in, a pretty good selection, but nothing overly ambitious, all seemed like fairly conventional styles and not a lot of risks appear to be taken on the current menu, but we tried a bunch of beers and all of them were good. i liked the winter ipa as well as the imperial red, but others in my crew liked the original ipa and the pub ale too. the beer is well made, if a little straight forward. the vibe here is awesome though, low light, lots of little nooks and spaces to converse quietly or socialize on a larger scale. they even have some weird old bocce looking game in the back, possibly german, that looks like a lot of fun. we had a blast hanging out in here and drinking a few beers. there are a ton of breweries in this part of town now, but this one should definitely be on your list!
