Hosted a large party here for about 70 people and every bit of it was fantastic! The event coordinator, Jensen, was extremely quick to respond to all my questions and the tap room staff, Jet, Jessica, and Jon, were unbelievable throughout the night! They all absolutely rocked it! We would definitely book this place again in the future.

Great beer and fantastic atmosphere. If you're visiting Winnipeg, the Exchange District is a must and Little Brown Jug is the perfect pit stop. Their patio is one of the best in Winnipeg - it's truly an oasis. If you love heritage buildings, killer beer and great people this is the place.

Little Brown Jug is a standout! Their beers are exceptional, offering a delightful taste journey as you try them all. The taproom's cozy vibe is perfect for unwinding. Plus working with Tanner, Kevin, Rebekah, James, and their entire team has been a pleasure; their professionalism and passion sets them apart. The staff's expertise and genuine care makes for a top-notch experience. ?

We were in Winnipeg for the weekend. I stopped by and picked up one of everything to take home and try. The beers are phenomenal! Great classic tastes and their unique recipes were all fantastic. The chai golden ale is a must. I will definitely be coming back for more!

Really great selection of beers and not-beers. 1919 and their pale ale are personal favorites. Wish they had more food choices.

Stumbled upon this spot on a layover in Winnipeg. Was a wonderful, charming little spot with the friendliest staff. Enjoyed a tasty flight and great chats with the staff at the bar. Especially loved the Chai Golden Ale, mmm mmm. Thanks!

This is one of our favourite breweries in Winnipeg. We are from Calgary and needed a place to watch the CPL finals. They allowed us to sit with our laptop and enjoy their tasty brews. We started with a 1919 and a glass of wine and ended up enjoying two flights, a warm pretzel and a collection of the winners of our taste challenge. While it is a not official we would suggest the Golden, 1919, and the Brown as our top three picks. It's Winnipeg in October so a bit chilly, but admiring their awesome patio. A must for our next visit.

The Little Brown Jug has some great beers. My friend and I got a variety four-pack and we enjoyed them lots.1919: Standard Little Brown Jug that's been around for years. Goes down smooth with a distinct flavour note at the end.Black Lager: A good breakfast or late night beer. Heavier than the Generic Lager with more flavour. The notes of chocolate make it really tasty.Hazy IPA: An easy drinking IPA if there ever was one. It lacks the harshness of other IPAs making it perfect for someone who doesn't normally drink them.Pale Ale: Even though it's not called an IPA, it taste like more of what you would expect from an IPA than the Hazy did. Clear and crisp with that nice fruity/earthy flavour..Out of all these beers, my favourite has to be the the Black Lager. There is just so much flavour but at the same time it doesn't way you down.The venue at the LBJ is also very cozy. I would strongly recommend it as a nice hang out spot for you and your friends during the summer seasons but, they also have great inside seating during the winter. We had a great time dancing there during Nuit Blanche as well.

Very charming spot. Enjoyed the funky patio, which has a nice variety of seating options, including a (shipping container) rooftop patio. Great beer too!
Good food, great beer. Our dog also loved the Astro turf, treats and water!

We hosted our wedding reception at Little Brown Jug last week and it was amazing! James, Cal, and the staff were wonderful to plan and work with. Our friends and family loved the venue and had a great time! We would highly recommend LBJ!

I attended the Opera event on the LBJ patio last month and had a fantastic time. The patio is a well-designed space with ample seating and shade covers for hot days. They offered several non-alcoholic beverages like Brite Water (try the pineapple coconut!) and zero-proof beers—a must-see in the Exchange District.
