Breakside Brewing



A nice neighborhood pub with a healthy selection of experimental beers plus regulars.

English Pale> solid beer, good start

Wit > taste like Tang plus beer (Steve), could be refreshing on a hot day (Todd), The more I drink the less I like it (Steve)

Hoppy Amber- great aroma, god chick beer (Steve) continuous taste throughout (Todd)

IPA- not as crisp as amber, similar to amber, bait and switch (Scott),

Aztec- spiciest beer I ever had , but well done (Rob) pretty wild, liquid jalapeno popper

Dry stout- ok

Brewers bramble- really interesting, like mikes hard lemonade (Rob), like lemondae beer (ben)

Lavendar fudge stout- like lysol in a stout (Steve) the sickness beer 9ben)

Aniversary (barley wine)- pleasant , pretty good for barley wine (Todd)

Ambience- nice corner /triangle lot. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly enthusiastic staff

Food- ambitious
The whole group did not order food. We did have fried pickles, sweet potato waffle fries as starters, both were good.
For entree I had pork belly sandwich - sounded better on paper than it was. Can't recall what Ben and Todd had but their food was fine (better than mine)

The favorites-
Amber 4 out of 5 had this as number 1
The 2nd choice was a mix- hoppy amber, wit, bramble, dry stout, english pale
3rd choice stout, pale, wit, wit

overall a nice place. The experimental beers were not over the top. and all drinkable.
