Manor Hill Brewing Brewery • $
4411 Manor Ln, Ellicott City

“What a fantastic location and operation. We had a private client appreciation party here on a Wednesday night and the setting could not of been more perfect. The open doors and the simple decor was excellent. We were able to enjoy the entire space and bring our own food in. The beer was tasty and the service was excellent. The entire event was beyond reasonable for a large party. Everyone had a great time.During the weekends it is open to the public- highly recommend it for an afternoon visit with friends“

“My fiancé and I attended the Craft Fair & Makers Market at Manor Hill Brewing. I liked how there were three spots (Taproom, Mobile, and Barn) that you could order beer from and tented areas to sit and enjoy live music. They didn't have any sour ales at the moment. My fiance enjoyed the Hillside Hazy and Citra Splendor. He was tempted to buy a case of Citra Splendor. Since they were already chilled and we weren't going home right away, he decided not to get them. I enjoyed the Farm Fuzz, which is a wheat beer that was light, sweet, and subtle. It reminded me of a Blue Moon. Before heading home, I also purchased a brewery t-shirt!“

Sapwood Cellars Brewery Brewery • $$
8980 MD-108 Suite MNO, Columbia - 2.94 miles

“As a non-drinker, it is always great to hear about brewerys who have more options than Shirley Temple for me and also a fun night for my friends! I've heard nothing but amazing things about the beer here, so I would recommend this place to everyone. Mike the owner seems like a great guy too. 5 stars :)“

Notch 8 Brewery Brewery • $$
10150 Junction Dr, Annapolis Junction - 9.86 miles

“Great place to hang out with friends, play games, and snack over drinks. I’m not a beer person but I quite like the beers here. Good vibes in here - good music but not so loud you can’t hear people. I’ll be coming back for future game nights!“

Guinness Open Gate Brewery Brewery • $$
5001 Washington Blvd, Halethorpe - 6.18 miles

“My husband has been wanting to visit this brewery for years and we finally made it happen for his birthday! We first had the Baltimore Blonde years ago when we found it at our local grocery store in central Virginia and loved it…but we haven’t been able to find it since that summer and it was so great to have it again! It was as good as we remembered and the other beers we tried here were also delicious. The food was also exceptional…I’ve found that food at breweries can often leave something to be desired but that wasn’t the case here at all. The Hot Chicken sandwich was fantastic and the barrel fries were seriously some of the best fries ever!“

Heavy Seas Beer Brewery • $
4615 Hollins Ferry Rd # A, Halethorpe - 6.99 miles

“Update: So I think what happened is that somehow, the distributor must have had a few cases open, and they mixed them up when reassembling them . I found clear packing tape on the underside of the case .Changed to 5 star for H/S beer Tropi-cannon.I'm not sure what to make of the recent purchase of Tropi-cannon six pack,(5+1 pack) , there was 1 can of Evil Genious "Stacy's mom" in the pack . Not what I was expecting or paid for, but I will give it a try anyhow, and if it's good, maybe change to 5 star .“

Black Flag Brewing Company Brewery • $
9315 Snowden River Pkwy, Columbia - 6.68 miles

“Tasty beer (had hazy ipa, hubby had a lager) and very friendly servers. Somewhat of a post-industrial vibe. Unfortunately no outdoor seating and overly echoey and loud with the dozen or so folks here. Some games and books available. Very clean“

Jailbreak Brewing Company Brewery • $$
9445 Washington Blvd N Ste F, Laurel - 10 miles

“Ambience: chill laid back..adult hang out. No children after 7pm. Reservations: seating is first come first serve, but if you have a big party, you can call or email to reserve a table for 2 hours. No show after 15 mins, the table is released. Just come in and find the table with your name on it. It could be in the bar area. Ordering food and drink: you will need to open a tab by placing a credit card on file. Order your food (at the food works station) and drink (at the bar). Once you are done eating, go to either spots to close the tab. FYI- no fountain drinks, just canned soda. Water is available on both sides. The food was AMAZING. Flavor flavor flavor!! We tried the aged ribeye, Thai chili wings, jerk chicken flatbread, and the chicken and frites. The only switch would be steak and frites instead of chicken and frites. Don't forget to try an ice cream sandwich!“

Guiness Brewery Road Way Express Brewery • $$
5101 Washington Blvd, Halethorpe - 6.18 miles

“Food was great...but we learned to order apps first and keep the tab open then place food order - because everything came together!! Fun atmosphere and don't let the crowded parking lot scare you away because there was plenty of room and didn't feel over crowded!! Overall a great experience and will definitely go back!!“

Hysteria Brewing Company Brewery • $$
9570 Berger Rd Suite J, Columbia - 6.97 miles

“I fear they're on their way out. Visited around 4pm on Friday 3/22 after trying Black Flag (with no success - there was a line 10 deep and no employee in sight). Hysteria was empty. Felt hollow. No cans to go, 4 beers on tap. Bartender was really nice & "Sweater Weather" was an easy drink, but the vibe was depressing. I'd give it a month until they're closed.“
