Great little brewery off the beaten path. The Uncle Cliff Maple Bourbon Porter has lots of flavor with a hint of maple. The Stalker Lake IPA smell very fruity with strong grapefruit notes, very smooth.

Funky, cozy brewery. We stopped in after a round of disc golf, it’s a great option in a small town. They offer a pretty good variety of beers and a very comfortable taproom to enjoy them - if only couch seating was more commonplace!

Best beer experience! Love the place! Former church building...has definitely a different vibe! I tried the Orange Blood, the pistachio, the viking and that one of the bear, soooo good all! Great service, quality beer and awesome bathrooms!

Intrigued by the jalapeno kolsch...little hints nothing too big, but certainly delicious. I'm an IPA girl, so the Skywalker robotic hand was my favorite. Brandon the owner/bartender was friendly, kept tabs on us to make sure everything was good? Brought home a crowler that was poured and sealed before my eyes. Lastly, I love the sign that was hanging up!!!

Wow! We have heard great things about Garphish brewing but never got a chance to stop by as it is a little ways out from us. My husband signed us up for a table top firepit class tonight and we were so excited to check this place out.*it looks like an old church (looking it up it was a church and city hall etc) and inside they seem to have kept it original. I love unique places and this is such a fun place! There is even church pews.Now the best part. The 2 bartenders were BEYOND nice. Breweries sometimes have really rude staff and they were phenomenal. We appreciated that- especially never have been here!*the class was awesome. Cindy the teacher was so kind and kept up a good conversation and was a great teacher. Our table top firepit looks so beautiful.* oh and the jalapeño beer. There are NO words. We are usually into sour beers and as much as I love jalapeño I wasn't sure about it in a beer. My husband ordered it for him and I kept stealing sips. It was so good! It isn't spicy at all to me (which is good!) but you can tell there is jalapeño in there. Amazing!There was a few 'snacks' like pretzel and pickle dip. But there is a restaurant across the way if you want food food.Seriously, check this place out. Even if you're not from the area. It is beyond cute!

One of my favorite breweries! Great atmosphere, great beer choices and great service. I'm happy they have music early in the evening for us that don't stay out late.

We had a great time with our family here. They have an awesome variety of beers, very tasty, and expertly brewed. Their service was great and the atmosphere was very laid-back and relaxing

This place is exactly what you would expect it to be. Excellent craft beers in a casual (historic even?) establishment. Reasonable prices. Rotating selection. Away from the busy city. The staff I met were attentive and willing to answer any questions about their beers. I am looking forward to visiting Garphish anytime I am in the area. If you like great beer, stop in. Check their hours first!

They have great selection of beer from dark to light. The beer with blood orange was very good with orange notes. Interesting building with covered outside patio that is dog friendly.

Love having a high quality brewery north of the metro. We are more than spoiled to have this place up here.

Old Church?This is one of the more unique tap rooms you will find. It appears to be in an old church, almost exactly like a church I went to years ago as a kid so there was some nostalgia to it for me. Great beer, great names for their beer with a food truck parked out from the one time I was there.And their slogan:1. Serve the Lord2. Serve Good Beer3. Always In That OrderCan't get much better than that!

Fun little brewery off the beaten path. Hazy IPA had an unexpected spice, but liked it. Warning for those with allergies - it's in an old build church full of old couches. Musty basement smell = stuffy nose.

Garphish is a great example of a tap house done right. The building is really cool and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. If I lived in the area I would easily be here a few times a week. A gem.

If you are lucky enough to show up for Bigger Boat Launch, Jalepeno Kolsch, or Subliminal Haze IPA you will not be disappointed. The owner is a riot, has a true passion for experimentation and is an amazing human being. Come have some unique brews, enjoy the frequent food trucks, and enjoy this hidden gem off the beaten path.

1st time here. Staff and owner were extremely helpful and nice. Not a big craft beer drinker , until today!! Help me pick out the perfect beer!! Also had food trucks today. Food trucks aren't always there. They do offer pizza, beef sticks and pretzels to purchase. Definitely will be back!!

It was fun doing a painting class at Garphish. I was very impressed with how nice the brewery was setup and very friendly people. I will definitely visit again.

Great surprise when I googled brewery near me! Boat Launch is a solid Stout and Long Lake is a good staple IPA.

Great selection of craft beer and cozy atmosphere. I also like the food truck option, it is great to get food you normally have to drive to the cities to get.

Garphish Brewing is the “Crème de la crème” when it comes to craft beer. Along with that, Collin provided the best service I’ve ever received at a brewery. Collin truly emulates what it means to be a professional in the service industry. I will definitely be returning because of the service I received today. Would recommend to a friend.

Ok brewery. Nice space and nice people. Beer was ok. I would suggest spending a bit more on ingredients and changing up yeasts. I love us-05 but you could get a lot more character out of a different yeast, like s-04 or a California lager strain.Had four beers. Skywalker IPA, peanutbutter porter, jalapeno blonde, and another stoutSkywalker IPA: very little hops for a west coast. Needs a lot more hops and a touch of crystal 40 to round it out.Peanut butter porter" WAY too acidic. Need to check PH during mash and after peanut butter addition.Jalapeno blond. Ok, but way too much tannins and not enough spice. I .e tasted like the skin of jalapeno, with none of the spice.I forget the name of the last stout, but it was nice and clean with good roast character.

This brewery is so bad. All they do is serve great beer with great staff that put up with me. Get on down here today.

Excellent beer. We tried all the offerings and not a single one was bad. Five bucks a pint is what I hoped for and should get at all breweries. Many of the other area breweries have beers of lesser quality and charge six, which is a joke. Finally a place I don't feel like they are gouging people. I really enjoyed the atmosphere too... friendly people and somewhat retro but comfortable surroundings. We will definitely be back, again and again.

Nice new dog friendly patio, fun spot to sit and enjoy a few craft beers. They have some fun names and the bartender was great. I tried a flight before settling in on a pint. There isn't much in East Bethel besides the dugout(bar/restaurant) across the street.
