Black Hat Brew Works

Large commercial building in an industrial park on the southwest side of town spacious taproom in the back of the building with a straight bar that seats about 30, with plenty of additional table seating. Also patio area out front with additional seating and lawn games in front parking lot. 13 beers on tap. Friendly service. Food truck.

This place feels like a front. Everything feels fake, from the plastic cups to the bar top that will literally tip over if someone leans on it. Very weird. Owner seems like a snake oil salesman.

 

Very small tasting room in a corner of a building. Plenty of parking. Inside was a bit worn, untidy, and disorganized. Bar space and a bunch of crowded together high top tables with uncomfortable stools. Large outside seating area for good weather which can only help. BBQ food truck on site - best thing we ate was the fries and the golden sauce. Not the fault of the brewery other than guilt by association. We tried six beers and felt all were slightly below average. I think they had 14 on tap but the board didn't agree with the card on the table. The people were excellent - super friendly and attentive even as the place became very quickly packed and hot as a sauna.

 

 

 

Fun place, seems like a lot of locals. Beers were awesome, great new ish brewery nailing styles. Good growler filling. For pours either 2 5oz pours for $5 or a 10oz for $5, so even. Good pricing.

Nice looking bar, view of the small brewery. Crisp clean walls with just their own merch hanging from it. Light classic rock in the background. Friendly patrons. 8 taps all their own beers, and a good variety, blueberry kolsch, Scottish ale, tripel, quad, blond, NEIPA, chili stout, and amber, all on at the same time.

Staff is also friendly and knowledgeable. Def had a fun time, and I'll come back when I have a chance.

 

 

Small, sparse tasting room. Friendly, informative staff.
