Cute little brewery in Balsam Lake with ample seating both inside and out. They have other selection for beverages for the non-beer drinkers. Beer is decent, staff could have been a bit more pleasant. Beertender would have rather chatted with her friends than help new customers also sitting at the bar. Oh well.. won’t deter me from returning. The market is a great option if you need to pick up a few things in a hurry.

Stopped in on a Friday evening for a swift pint and tried their Double IPA which was delicious. They had a good selection of in house beers made on site. Good selection of clothing and a variety of produce etc in the Market section. Great local spot.

When we are in town we try to get to the brewery! Trivia night is so much fun and they have a small menu but it goes great with a beer. They also offer wine and other drinks. I like that there is a little market attached so if you need to grab something else to snack on or milk at home or cabin it is available! Outdoor seating too!!

This brewery is so fun and unique. Great beer!!!! Loved that they had a little market inside of it. We were able to have a drink and get snacks such as local cheese and meet. They have a great selection of clothing and trinkets too! They have live music and it was so fun when they opened the big garage door windows. Very welcoming and fun!

Nice brewery in northern Wisconsin. It is right downtown with great outdoor seating. They have nice pizza and a few other snacks. It has a modern vibe with some music and TVs. For beer they had 13 of their beers on for my stop. Kolsch, jalapeno sweet corn cream, green tea shandy, DIPA, Hazy IPA, IPA, Stout, 2 sours, pale ale, boysenberry blonde, amber, Bueno nitro beer(it's a stout), and 3 seltzers. All the beers were better than I expected and that nitro stout was smooth. This is a place I will stop again when I am in the area.

Such a great addition to Balsam Lake! I tried the Wisconsin old fashioned seltzer, up in kolsch, and boysenberry blonde which were all outstanding. Ordered the Bavarian pretzel on a whim and it may have been the best I've ever had. Be sure to check this place out if you're in the area!

Great beer awesome service, only thing that would make it better is if they had a kitchen but still an awesome place to go. All of their beer is great.

Had a great experience here they had great drinks and the service was quite good. They had nice outdoor seating which was perfect because I went when it was a beautiful day out. I don't think they quite had all of their merchandise in yet but other than that great place to go.

My husband and I stopped in during Freedom Fest to try their house brews. We were excited to see other local small brewery's on tap like Oliphant and Lift Bridge. I had the seltzer and my husband had the Cream Ale and tried the West Coast IPA. Good drinks and awesome atmosphere. We are going to come by again when the town isn't so busy with out-of-towners.The market was well stocked with essentials. Local meats and cheeses and other unique ingredients like truffle salts and bacon jam. It will be great to have a market in town.

Great atmosphere, good service, and a great selection of local pours. You’ll find something for anyone from beer, wine, and even wine-based margarita flights. We will definitely be going back!

I’m not a drinker but I absolutely LOVED the seltzers! They were the best drink I have ever tasted in my life! The strawberry lemonade and the blood orange were phenomenal!

Super excited to have both a brewery and a market! They have really stepped up the game here in balsam through having live music, good beer, and fun atmosphere. We had to grab some flour for the wives on our way back to the cabin and were delighted to make a pitstop in to the market and happen to buy a beer while there. Would highly recommend for those passing through for both their beer and their market!

Walked in and bot a single word said to us. Sat down and waiting about 5 minutes with the bartenders just avoiding us? We gave up after the rude vibes, and not to mention the whole place stunk the moment you walked in. We ended up at Vivs and so happy we did!!

Friendly staff, great market, great beer and food. They are pet friendly on the patio. We had a great experience in this small town with our 1 1/2 year old German Shepherd who received a lot of attention which she loved.

This place does everything right. Taproom is smartly designed and modern. In house beer is really well made. It's solid, with clean crisp flavors. Live music excellent! This is our new tradition when going to the cabin.

We had two great experiences here. Staff was friendly and drinks were all great. We would go back again. Would recommend the old fashioned hard seltzer!

The brewery had a promotion where you would get sealed envelopes that had to be opened in the month of March in front of a bartender. I had free drink coupons inside of my envelope and when I went back in April to use them I was told that I could not use them even though there was no expiration date on them
