Red Top Brewhouse

"I've been to Red Top Brewhouse many times. Although it is usually very busy in there it never really seems to be cramped or crowded. Most of the patrons that frequent this establishment are usually fun carefree folks just enjoying a good time. I have spoken with the owner on numerous occasions and he is very kind and friendly as is the rest of his staff. One of the top things that I enjoy about the pub is that I can just grab a glass and pay for precisely the amount of beer and the type of beer that I want without having to flag down a bartender. Everything goes on a little card and most including myself just drop it in a little jar as you're leaving to add an automatic 20% tip to the staff that are standing by to take your empty glasses and offer any kind of assistance you may need. If you are in the area I highly recommend you make a stop at this place."

"The atmosphere is really great. Family oriented, cozy areas to find a table with friends to chat, play games, and drink. They have some eventful nights with trivia, outdoor cornhole and a outdoor seating area with some areas with fire pits. Where they lack is in beer and food. When they first opened they had local beers but now that they have there own beers in tap, there isn't a huge selection. If you like IPA they have quite a bit but I'm more of a darker beer person which they have none of. My fall back is lagers and there was only two on tap. I only have one beer I like which is the honey beer which seems to be everyone's favorite. With it being the favorite, it not only pours hard leaving a large amount of foam but needs changing often. If you are patient, if you teel a server, they will fix the pour for you free of charge. The biggest disappointment was the food. The amount of food you get for the price is not worth it. We got fried pickles and for $9, it only came with 12 chips. For an appetizer that is only enough for 1 person, see picture, no food was taken from this. You can also see they were burnt. I asked if this amount was correct and they said yes but I also got one of the employees tell me that the cooks are having a bad night, were upset because the kitchen closed at 9 pm. I asked before I placed my order if they kitchen was still open and they said yes and this was only a little after 9. The other thing we ordered was buffalo chicken dip which was very oily and came with kettle chips, again this was $14 and for the portion and taste which was bland was not good. Tasted like something I would have gotten from the store for $5. Place is worth meeting up with friends and drinking basic beers. Everyone may find one beer they like but don't expect a huge variety to taste from. Food is way overpriced for what you get. You are better off eating at other establishments nearby."

"I came on a Saturday evening with a friend. It was our first time. We loved the atmosphere and the food. Our cocktails (Blood Moon & the elderberry gin) were delicious. The picture shows the Buffalo chicken dip and blood moon cocktails. The dip was tasty but had very mild spice. We also ordered the lemon pepper and jerk wings, both were dry-rub, and tacos. The beef brisket taco one was pretty good. You get in line to order, and they give you a buzzer. When the food is ready, you pick it up yourself. It was kind of chaotic for me, but we had an enjoyable experience overall. We sat at the bar while eating, then went outside, where there were lots of tables and chairs after it cooled down."

"This taphouse has virtual taps where you are able to pour your own beers. We found each style was reasonably priced and the flavor of the beer matched the beer style. The Mexican Lager was absolutely amazing on a hot day. Well done brew. You never have to wait for a bar tender unless you would like a cocktail or other beverage you will find service at the bar. The food was surprisingly good for a brew pub. You are able to go up and order and you will be notified when you food is ready to come pickup. They had a great selection, we had the Hangover Burger and Mac and Cheese side. The burger was perfect and flavorful. The Mac n cheese was approved by my fiancé from Wisconsin. The outdoor area is amazing on a beautiful day!! The not so good: the glasses did not all seem clean, please inspect your glass before you pour your own beer. There were no clear drop off areas for the food trays/plates. Overall there did not seem to be a staff member wiping down tables or cleaning up after guests when they left. Parking is very limited, you might have to get your steps in."

"Really cool atmosphere. We went for a Sip & Script event and got a chance to enjoy some hard apple cider at the bar. I'm not really much of a beer drinker, so this was more my speed. They have these really cool dispensers, too, so you can try different flavors. We'll definitely go back and stay for dinner the next time."
