I'm pretty sure this was the Uly's Dark Oatmeal Stout.

I did not have high expectations for Galena Brewing Company. First off, it is called Galena, but located in Johnstown (I will explain that later). When we arrived it was basically tucked back in a sort of brick strip and the front of the taproom and brewery was covered bird crap. We were the first to arrive on a Saturday. We were greeted by a friendly bartender. She showed us a menu with all their beers on tap. Just wait until you get to read through one of their beer menus, it is hilarious!!! For example, baby in a bar (Sweet Home Alabama), buzz the tower (Top Gun), dude IPA (The Big Lebowski), and shenanigans (Super Troopers). The menu alone had me cracking up and smiling. I started with a flight which consists of 5 beers of your choice. I actually liked them all. I was impressed that they were drinkable, approachable beers. Nothing too crazy. Just solid beers. The longer we stayed the happier we were. Walt, one of the two brewers/owners happened to stop in while we were there and he took the time to chat with us. He explained that he and his brewing partner live in Galena. Their original plan was to open the brewery in Galena, but as things do, the plans fell through and they were ready to open. So they found this space in Johnstown and they thought, well it is close enough, and after hanging out there, I agree. It is close enough, and I get it, when you are ready to open, you want to open. Walt is a total comedian. He kept us laughing. I believe he is behind all their awesome beer names, and of course the awesome beer. Stop in to Galena Brewing Company (in Johnstown) and you will be shocked how much you like it. Order up a Shenanigans to start and then make a new friend. Hopefully Walt is in the house!

It's been quite awhile since I've been here and it was under a different name. The atmosphere, vibe, and deco is identical. This place is a win if you want to be super chill or if you need a cold one and have littles.

We LOVE Grizzlybird. It's such a great place for the whole family. The kids love their games and pinball machines, the adults love the drinks and friendly atmosphere. Grab a snack there or order in pizza. Make sure to tip the bar staff! They are fantastic!!!

Nice place to have a drink with friends. Kid friendly. They have a few games and virtual golfing. There is some food like pizza. The pizza was good and so wjat the garlic bread. It took a little time so order before you are hungry. Nice selection of beer to drink. They also have a party room you can reserve.

What a great spot, I really enjoyed their Motor Boatin SOB IPA. Large bar, and banquet area. They also have rotating food trucks and live music.

We have been going to GB for a few years. Its changed owners, renovated, and added a party room during our time going. With every update, it just gets better. I could not recommend more. Brian and Walt are amazing and great to spend time with. Plus, the beer is delightful. 100% recommend to everyone.

Let's start with what they're doing right... love the set up with the food truck out back! Space is fairy large, and they had some sort of small private event area off the main room. Great location for us, walking distance from the neighborhood. But I'll never go back. The bar server was incredibly rude. The menu was made up of a wide variety of craft brews, in-house and guest brews, and being new to this establishment I asked her to describe one of the Grizzlybird beer selections. She was annoyed with the question, and said "how would I know, I just tapped it".... Ok, but odd response at a brewing company. Kind of standard staff training- try all the new brews so you can describe them! Not my first taproom, and generally the best part about going to a taproom is talking about the beers! I ordered a couple beers, and headed back to our table. As the night went on, I dreaded returning to the bar- but at some point had to face her again. Still rude. The other server and some sort of game host seemed to like their jobs and were friendly, total bummer that they would keep someone on staff that brought down the vibe. The Grizzlybird beer was nothing special, a brown without any nod to its "butter beer" name, probably not what I would pick as the sole representation of the brand. My husband had a killer Untitled Art pastry stout, and the mixed drinks were tasty and well made.

Nano brewery! Support local! *off the beaten path* You name it they have it! Arcade games, KENO, pool table, darts, TVs, PLENTY of seating, patio, live music, food trucks, beers made in house, domestic beers, partial full bar, wine, cocktails and friendly staff!!!!!! Great hidden brewery that is worth the stop! Be sure to check their Facebook and Instagram to see the live band playing and the food truck that will be there that day - always changing! Also outside food is always welcome! Owner/ brewer has been here every time we have stopped by- great to talk to. Taproom open Wednesday - Sunday. Cheers!

Nice brewery in an area that seems reserved for offices. I thought I was lost and actually drove by it. There's a nice selection of tasty beers that would please any beer fan. The interior looks like a place where some beer enthusiasts got together and decided to open a brewery. There's a patio out back as well. The bartender was great with the patrons. He worked the entire bar. I look forward to coming back to try a few more house beers.
