M8 Beer

Right where the Checkerspot Brewery used to be but nearly everything has changed. Inviting, open, bright and airy with plenty of seating options. An industrial feel but much better than you might get from the typical business park set up. Succeeded in promoting an Australian like atmosphere. Enough TV's to satisfy a sporting enthusiast and a food menu that offers enough variety without being overwhelming. Friendly, attentive staff. Maybe 15-16 nicely curated taps (including a cider and a seltzer) plus a few other options like NA's. Enjoyed an Irish stout and ESB on this visit.

Two major league stadiums are within walking distance due north. Plus, there are 3 other breweries (Checkerspot, Wico and Pickett) within 1 mile and a couple more (Diamondback and Mystique) if you widen the scope to 1.5 miles.

Overall, it was a pleasurable visit. Looking forward to the next time.

A great location, I’ve been here a couple times.
Close to Route I-95 access, and not a congested downtown area.
Not the best of neighborhoods though, but not too bad. Mostly urban/industrial and plenty of parking under the highway overpass, and away from heavy traffic.
A nice tap room. Both seating at the bar, and tables, I saw some outdoor seating as well.
Very good beer, a nice verity, great food as well.
The Kangaroo Chili was awesome.
Friendly staff, cold canned beer to go as well.
Highly recommended.

Visited on a Tuesday evening with two friends. Good-sized tap list with a wide variety of styles; none, however, above 6.5% abv - which is 100% fine with me. The two bartenders were very friendly and helpful, and knowledgeable about the beers as well. Beer quality was mostly very good, with only 1 or 2 misses in the 9 beers I tried. The food selection looked good, although I didn't order any. I'll plan on returning next time I go to an Orioles game.
