Loved this place. Good vibes around, great beer selection (and some unique combinations too -- I got orange juice and IPA combo). Food was good, vibes were relaxed, and close to short north. Would make a great Sat or Sun brunch
Can’t begin to describe the vibes of this place. 80’s? 90’s? All of it?
The service is top tier. Friendly from the gate. The beer is top beer. They know their stuff.
The menu is cleverly designed, almost like an Adult Swim advert.
The more time you spend here, the more fun you have (not just cuz of the beers). There are little surprises everywhere. For example, the Image3d’s on the tables that are Retro image viewers that tell you about the happenings at the brewery. Freaking awesome.
Bonus points if you come on a Wednesday for movie night!
Also, I got the Chimichanga.

We stopped in on a Sunday around noon and it was packed! It looks like a very popular place for brunch.
As for the beer, unless you like IPAs or sours, you aren't really going to have much of a selection. Even the lager was on the hoppy side.
We would return to try the food but will pass on the beer.

This is our go-to best food spot. The brunch menu here is absolutely the best on the planet. We highly recommend the "Dad Bod" burger and the carnitas breakfast burrito. Ben is our regular bartender and he has fantastic beer recommendations and the best personality. 10/10 great spot!
Food was delicious, drinks were great, service was awesome, and the decorations were fun.
I went with my Dad on a Sunday evening. The main interior is splendid and bustling with energy/cackling from the Italian Village young adults and hipsters. I drew a notice of the light blue bench upholstery- it's a bit of an eye sore to see the food stains. Please replace it soon so it can garner better appeal.
The dinner selection was the fan favorite -- the Dad Bod Double Cheese burger. This is rather self explanatory and plain delicious. The cheddar on this stood out to me as it had well complimented the 4 ounce patties (done medium). I paired it with a side of robust and wholesome fries.
I wish I had the extra stomach to imbibe the recently released 'Ever Stop to Think and Forget to Start Again'. The beast imperial stout is a "Double Mash Stout w/ Meadowfoam Honey, Tahitian & Madagascar Vanilla and Roasted Hazelnuts." Next time.

We were out in Columbus on vacation and wanted to visit a local brewery. This was definitely a good choice. The only negative I have is that there weren't any other beers besides fruit beers or IPAs. The food made up for it.
My girlfriend got the tacos which you could pick four total from a list. She said they were good. I got the Cuban sandwich with fries which was good and definitely filling. The queso is something you must get though. It was thick and stayed on the chips. Also, the chips were amazing, we asked for the secret and were told they are just fried tortillas.
The beers were different and looked to be the only two on the menu that weren't an IPA. They were good though. Finally, our waitress was awesome too. She was always checking on us to make sure we had what we needed.
We would definitely come back again for the food.

This one won't be for everyone, but I loved it. Recreated early 90s vibe. Strong selection of hazy IPAs and heavily fruited beers (maybe too exotic for some). Killer happy hour, although appetizers would probably be on the pricey end without the discount. Reservations recommended if you'd like a table.
