Peoria Artisan Brewery

Trend little brewpub in shopping plaza on west side of town. Short bar on the left seats about 7 with another short bar opposite it on the patio that seats 4 or 5. Also tables to the right of the bar and on the large shaded patio out back. 14 house beers and 4 guest offerings on tap. The IPA I had was very nice. They fill crowlers. I did not try the food, but judging from the lunch crowd it's good.

 

 

Da Boss and i stopped in for lunch earlier today. Was here about a year ago when it first opened.

The vibe was pretty good. Seating for 40 + on the patio and maybe 80 on the inside.

Quality of the beer was solid. Cross section of classic styles and some experimental styles.

Service was very good. Charles had a very good knowledge of the beer and was very friendly and timely.

Selection in addition to the house taps they had maybe 6-8 guest taps including HopSlam. About 20 taps in all.

Food was good as well. Had the PAB burger and Da Boss had the Bleu Cheese burger with Rosemary Parmesan fries.

Recommend a stop here if you live on the northwest side of town.

My wife and I went for happy hour and dinner. This gastropub is tucked into a store front in a large shopping center. The interior was pretty cool, with a small bar, group and individual tables. Beer selection is quite good with a cross of their own beers and visiting taps. The IPA was quite good but the Amber tasted a little flat or old. I had the chicken sandwich, which was a little stale. Wifey had the french dip, which she wasn't crazy about. Our server did a nice job. Worth a stop.
