Beer is typically good overall, buy please don't have live music in your venue. Too loud and just kills the experience.

Loving the beer selection!!! Have something for everyone. I really love their canned options, makes it easy to enjoy craft beers at home.
Amber Sanders
Fun place to bike out to and have some beers. They also have a food truck occasionally and a nice outdoor space.

Rochester Reviews
Love this place, especially in the nicer weather when you can sit outside. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Great selection of beers available. Check out their calendar for monthly events such as pizza, trivia, BBQ, and more.

Stopped in for a IPA to take a break from the shopping lines, this one I'm not a fan of, should have stuck with the black forest.

Hidden gem (if you’re from the Cities). Great atmosphere, plentitude of comfortable space, awesome brews, and fun merch too.We left with lots of goodies.

Really good porter with coconut. My new fave! Great spot to hang out outside.

Little Thistle is such a gem in Rochester. The inside space is bright and welcoming. Each staff member was very nice and they offer a great beer selection. One of the best parts is you can order beers in different sizes to sample new flavors or go all-in. The outside space is huge with ample seating where you don’t feel crowed. I look forward to visiting again in warmer weather to soak up some sun while sipping a delicious beer on the patio.

Little Thistle is a hidden gem in Rochester. The bartenders are consistently friendly and helpful. It’s a great place to chill with good craft beer.
Love their IPAs, nice atmosphere. They occasionally have special events. We like to bike there when the weather is nice.

Great service, atmosphere and beer selection! N/A and THC drinks also available. Haven’t tried the N/A but the THC is one of my favorites.

Really nice destination brewery in the Rochester outskirts. I've had their beer at a lot of events but this was the first time making it to their taproom. The building itself is really nice, open, and clean with a huge dog friendly patio. The inside is a good size but there's still some squeezing between tables once it gets a little busy. Looks like they've got a space to reserve events in the back. It wasn't very crowded right at opening on a Saturday but you can tell it was going to fill up quickly. All the beer I've had from them has been excellent and I'm never hesitant to try a style I usually amn't a fan of. Worst case is that it's just "ok". No food on site except snacks but there are a ton of good places in the area with options for vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores alike. The bartender was super nice and even offered to help build a flight based on what styles I like. It's about an hour and a half away for me but I would definitely make the drive for special releases or events. Rochester has a lot of good food and drink options to make the trip worth it. It's an outspokenly inclusive brewery that makes great beer and doesn't try to be anything it's not. 5/5 will visit again.

Great IPA selection I feel they are the best in town currently. This place is where you want to go when its 90 out and so frickin humid like today.

We had planned on staying the night here in our van as they are a Harvest Host.. but we were saddened to hear they no longer participate in the program. They were super nice and still offered us a place to stay for the night.What a win facility with lots of seating both inside and outside. We bellied up to the bar and ordered a flight of beer so that we could try some different styles. The beers were tasty.The two girls working the bar were great! Personable, friendly, helpful and efficient.Tuesday is free hot dog day! You get a free hot dog with the purchase of a beer.Service 5 stars Hospitality 5 stars Beer 5 stars We'll be back for those free hot dogs.
