Sapwood Cellars Brewery

If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times -- I LOVE AN INDUSTRIAL PARK BREWERY! There is truly no irony in that statement. Nothing like taking a soulless collection of corporate buildings and plopping a brewery right in the middle. I loved my visit to Sapwood Cellars, as it's been on our radar as one of Maryland's best breweries for some time. We stopped in on a long drive home from a visit with family, where we brought our cat with us. Thankfully, due to Sapwood's outdoor space, we were able to bring his carrier to sit outside with us with we tried our tasty beverages. The super friendly bartender said "I think this might be our first cat on the patio!" Some people might find this in poor taste, but if people can bring unleashed dogs in a grocery store, I dont see why my cat (who literally came from the outdoors) can't chill in his carrier in an outdoor space. Cats have feelings too!!Speaking of tasty beverages - I mean, where do you start? I opted for a bottle pour of a gin-barrel aged sour - and I loved it so much, I bought a bottle to-go! I also tried their fall beer, a spiced dark lager - and thought it was delicious. It's a good sign to me when places can do two wildly different styles of beer very well. They had an endless list of options, and had we not a long drive ahead, I could have stayed here all day. Good to know: - Lots of parking- ADA accessible, as far as I can tell- Food trucks present or BYO food- Seemingly open only on the weekends- Fun merch!- Great staff- Lots of options on tap and to-go, including gluten-reduced beers

Was visiting a friend in Baltimore and took me to this brewery Cool little place with great brewsDefinitely a must to check out

A great spot to stop for really thoughtful, well brewed beers. The atmosphere is very laid back, the staff is incredibly welcoming, and again, the beer is great. A phenomenal selection of really unique brews - and everything we tried was really good!

Steve and I had two different beers from Sapwood Cellars. The first one we had was the New Hop Crop IPA. Specifically it was a New England style IPA. Flavors to be on the look out for when having this IPA are tropical elements, citrus, juicy, mango and dry-hops... which is always a favorite flavor element of ours.After that we got a type of beer we don't often get and that was more of a smoothie beer. It was more on the sour beer type side as well. It's name was Smúzí Piña Colada and it indeed taste just like the cocktail with flavors of pineapple, coconut and lime. It was creamy and thick which isn't often a preference we pursue but in this case this smoothie beer proved to be quite good. So I am glad at least that I tried a beer type we don't delve into often.

Casual Charm -- fair pricing, laid back atmosphere, & friendly service. .Honeymoon Season - lovely, light, & airy with a smidge of tart. It's delivered and poured from a cute wicker basket. Only snacks available but a taco truck is parked in their lot and the brewery lets you bring in food. Wish I didn't eat before so I could try some but settled for a whole container of hummus and large pita chip bag for $10 -- it was a deal.A charming brew house to unwind over their sizeable list and variety of beers and ciders. Initially it was fairly quiet with a few parties here and there, however I learned volume levels can really resonate loudly bc of the interior wall n flooring -echoes. At one point a group of families arrived with young kids...and it got very, very loud..cheers

Beer wise they have an option for everyone. I tried several as short pours. The standouts included:1. The World Moved on Draft. Hazy DIPA at 8.1% ABV. More a piney IPA with less juice.2. Grapefruit Juicius Draft. 7% ABV IPA that's almost the opposite of the World Moved on. Grapefruit juice and zest mellowed with vanilla beans. Creamy but no lactose in this. 3. 3 Bean Soup. This is an imperial stout with toasted hazelnuts, cacao nibs, vanilla beans, and coffee. Tastes like a mocha hazelnut latte. More of a dessert beer given the taste, thickness and ABV. You'll want a short pour. Food is limited although the often have food trucks. Service was excellent. Good craft brew tasting room vibe.

Sapwood Cellars and Brewery is a local brewery and bar in Columbia known for its exceptional brews. Visitors can unwind and socialize with friends while enjoying a refreshing drink and watching the game.Food: Their drink menu offers an exciting selection of beverages, including the Jamiest Bit pale sour ale, which is served in a cute picnic basket that also helps with pouring the ale. This ale has a tart taste reminiscent of sour cherries, and the fuzzy sensation is similar to kombucha. One bottle is perfect for sharing with up to three people. In addition, they offer a simple and quick resolution to satisfy your munchies with their chips and salsa, which is just a bag of Late July chips and a jar of salsa.Service: The service at Sapwood Cellars and Brewery is exceptional. The bartender was friendly and accommodating.Ambiance:The brewery has a spacious and modern ambiance with minimal decoration, making it a perfect place to relax after a long day.

First time stopping in. Great little tasting room brewery with interesting beers and such. They have lots of IPAs, not my cup of tea, but they're actually not too hoppy. If you're a person who wants the hops to punch you in the mouth then kick you while you're down... most of these aren't it. The hops are a bit mellow, more in the nose then on the palate. Definitely a friendly, neighborhood vibe. Lots of sours in the fridge, but not currently on tap. It's nice that they let you make mix-and-match 4 packs or grab 4 of your fav. We will just have to come back and try it again.But wait! They can do a "can pour," but it's not technically on tap, head scratcher. Anyway, Smuzi: Orangesicle is like an orange beer float, wonderful!

Love this place! This might be our new go-to brewery. Every beer we tried was great (between the 2 of us, we tried 8). Everything from their lighter beers and IPAs to stouts and sours - they did them all well. The service was amazing...we had 4 different servers checking on us and chatting with us about beer selection. The food truck (sliders) was great too though I think the trucks rotate. We will definitely be back and likely become regulars. OH! Merch and to-go beer selection was also fantastic!

It's kinda tucked away, not a spot you happen across. It's really nice inside and the bar tender was very pleasant and helpful when deciding which of the really good beers to try. My only complaint is that they don't serve food. They do have a regular rotation of food trucks from what I was told. Unfortunately we arrived after it had gone. So check the times of the food trucks or eat prior to going. Other than that they serve a good beer.
