Great place. Love the events and the atmosphere and most importantly the beer. My neighbors and I meet here regularly for food trucks, music etc.Would give it 5 stars except for the attitude of the young bartender. She is never pleasant nor says thanks for coming. Today she rolled her eyes at me when I asked a simple question. But don’t let that stop you. Hey! Maybe they can make that a thing like Dick’s Last Resort. Surly service Lol.

Stopped in yesterday on a roadtrip to give the beers a try and they definitely did not disappoint. They have a great selection on tap as well as to-go beers. Give the Fire Knife or Makai Life a try!

Whether you're a beer aficionado or just looking for a pleasant spot to unwind, Makai Brewing Company is definitely worth a visit.

$12 flight...paid with a $20. Ordered a $6 10 oz. beer after that and my money was gone...just sayin'.Anyway, the Oyster Stout is actually a fascinating brew they made.

This is a great place to hang out and try different beer types. The staff is friendly and has excellent recommendations. We always bring our dog, Harley.

If you're a lover of fresh-brewed beer, stop in and try. My Kolsch was delicious. Plenty of seating inside and some tables outside.

Finally stopped at Makai yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of their beers. I sampled the blonde and amber ale and both were delicious. Highly recomment this brewery to others in the quest for exceptional microbrews! Brendan the bar keep was a nice guy and knowledgeable about microbreweries in the Coastal Carolinas. Thanks Makai.
