I'd go to the The Chimes or CBD instead unless you really wanted to take the tour or drink near some brewing equipment. In which case I would go to NOLA or Gnarly Barley.

It's really not a terrible spot, I just think that their beer could be better and their tap room could be less boring in their offerings. I enjoy the coffee porter but I'm not sure if that's in season yet. Maybe I'm just too high maintenance when it comes to where I drink

It's a nice tap room. They have cool events there from time to time. Check out their Facebook.

Is Tin Roof the best beer on earth? No. But it's decent stuff. There are a lot worse ways to spend an evening than hanging out at the tap room drinking beer and watching sports.

Serious answer is what others have said. If you want to drink near some stainless tanks, by all means, go there. But my biggest beef is that they rarely serve anything that I can't get at the Albertson's right down the street from my house, so there really isn't a draw to going there. There is rarely more than 6, maybe 7 of the 10 taps filled at any given time. Can you imagine if you went to a restaurant or bar and 30-40% of their taps were empty? And that's not even mentioning that all of the offerings are pretty mediocre.

It's a nice enough space, and it has potential. They just need to offer up more things that you can't get elsewhere, along the lines of what NOLA does.

Anytime is a good time, it's a really great spot. The Gameday beer is one of the best beers I've had.

Went several months ago when some buddies and I were in town for a baseball game. Had a good time. Several food trucks were there and they had cornhole outside to play. Overall I thought it was enjoyable. Turnrow Harvest and Voodoo Bengal were the two I drank while there.
