Dope brewery with plenty of ipas to choose from. Food is mostly chips, beef jerky, crackers and hot dogs. Service is really quick and they have plenty of seating indoors

Been coming here for over a decade (first the winery and now brewery). Beautiful open lawn and dog park. Decent beer and sweet wine. If you have no kids, 8/10 recommended.If you DO have kids, like we do now, you're really not welcomed here anymore. No kids allowed in the tap room or wine tasting room--a nice bartender will let you order with them. Totally understand where they are coming from, but the signage is very aggressive (no strollers on the patio, no kids or strollers in the tap room, don't touch the board games). Really took the loose/fun vibe from this place. I hope they find a middle ground.Milkhouse and Hidden Hills are the new go-to for parents.

Really disappointed in my experience here yesterday. We’ve been coming here for years and my husband and I have a 9 month old baby now. We see kids on the lawn all the time and so it’s always been a family friendly place, but yesterday I had my son in his stroller and I tried to order a beer at the Red Shedman but I was turned away because I came in with my baby in his stroller. I actually completely understand not allowing kids in there to stay because it’s a bar environment but I told the bartender I was going right back out to the lawn and he still refused to serve me. I left, and my husband went in to complain and close the tab and we will not be going back. The bartender didn’t even offer an explanation, he just kept saying no. I was very kind and he was just so dismissive. I really hope other parents who frequent this place feel the same way I do and decide to take their business elsewhere. They allow DOGS, but not children? When my husband mentioned that, the bartender said “dogs are leashed.” Okay so are you suggesting we leash our children? My baby was in a stroller strapped in and there’s no risk of him biting other guests. He was basically “leashed.” This bartender clearly doesn’t have children of his own or he would have known how absurd he sounded.

second time visiting, the experience was not as positive as our first- while the staff was again very friendly & the place was gorgeous- great ambiance inside & outside, sadly we didn't enjoy our beers (quality & quantity)- so a resounding meh their website provides an updated tap list, but says flights are 6beers $15- upon arriving flights were actually 4beers $14 (considerable price difference when intending to run through their IPA list)-then to top it off (pun intended) the bartender didn't completely fill many of our taster glasses- so some intended 5oz pours varied between 3-4oz (&had nothing to do with ABV- it was foam & bad pouring) the IPAs were poured foamy, tasted flat, & of the 6 we tried only one impressed- definitely not the love for their beer we remembered wouldn't return at the prices & pours experience- would opt to buy cans for home

Weekends doesn't allow kids and they don't say that on website; poor service when asking about why website not showing no kids on weekend all they say is to read the sign on the door. Can understand if children not loved certain times but that should be advertised.on website which again it isnt- what breweries don't let kids Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Will not return

They don’t allow children in on the weekend and don’t post that on their website. Drove 40mins to meet friends all with kids and not allowed in. Terrible service when they are rude about the kid aspect acting like everyone should know and it’s not posted on website. Will never be back

Be warned: your family is no longer welcome at Red Shedman.I don't know whose little monsters are at fault for the recent change at Red Shedman, but on weekends kids are no longer allowed anywhere on site (maybe they'll be okay outside in the warmer months, but that remains to be seen), except in the upstairs area of the wine tasting building. Forget about grabbing some beers with friends in the taproom while your baby naps in a carrier or your kid plays Roblox- instead enjoy carting your pints to and from the taproom and out across the way, then upstairs to the large awkward event space where they've decided is the only acceptable area for anyone under 21 to be. This would be cool with me if there'd been a public announcement on either their website or FB page- nothing as of February 17th- as I definitely understand the necessity of childfree spaces, but alas there was no such advance warning. Thankfully nobody drove in from far away to catch up with us. We've brought friends several times because it's otherwise a cool location, but won't be back again, kids or not. There are plenty of other breweries in the area happy to take my Goldfish-stained money.

Thank you for the great and friendly customer service. I know you had been locking up as I can up the walkway. You kindly unlocked the door and made me feel at home and discussed selections. Great experience.

Hopping but not too crowded Fri night at Red. Live music, excellent sour beer on draft for a few hours out with my love. Great service, clean and nice atmosphere. Mason Hare's music was enjoyable!

Robert Pushman

Great spot to chill for a few or the whole day.

Denis Cloutier

So knowledgeable. Worth a tasting and a bottle.They are more picky using glasses outside than the other wineries. So just be aware. if you want the full experience, definitely reserve a table beforehand (not free though)
