Moontown Brewing Company

This is becoming a bit of a gathering place for us, especially over the past 9 months or so. We visited on Halloween night, since our kid was hosting a gathering at our place, so we made ourselves scarce for a few hours on a "date night." Our server was in costume, which added some additional fun to the festivities. I had their Hefczkowski (Hefewizen), which was incredible, and my date for the evening, had an Ash & Elm hard cider from down in Indianapolis. As always, I appreciate collaboration between local businesses. It does not go unnoticed. For eats, you can't go wrong with the pretzels (from Tell City, Indiana) and their spicy mustard. We are big fans of Moontown and have also attended concerts there in the past. Being in a renovated high school provides a nostalgic feeling and a fun place to gather.

We have mixed feelings about our recent visit. While the beer, as always, was fantastic and worth coming back for, the food experience was unfortunately a hit or miss--again.The brisket was absolutely delicious, the mac and cheese creamy and comforting, and the corn dogs were a hit with everyone at the table. However, the kids' meal was disappointing--our toddler was served cold, stale fries, which really put a damper on the experience.We also missed the variety of sauces they used to have on the menu--it was one of the things that made this place stand out for us. That said, we still bring visiting family here for the beer, which never fails to impress. If the food could match the consistency and quality of the drinks, this place would be unbeatable.

Service- Fantastic! Katie was our server, so personable and friendly, and gave solid recommendations! Food- 50/50. Ribs, not much meat, plenty of them, but simply not a ton of meat. Nachos, really wanted to enjoy them, but only had half of them. The chips are normal "out of a bag" chip. The pulled pork and queso were good. The white onions and pickled jalapenos were okay. I feel like if they added bbq sauce instead of queso, they would have been a lot better. The wings were great. Full of flavor, but again, smaller amounts of meat. Katie did let us know the wings were smaller, but full of flavor, she was spot on. The Dank Burger was the highlight for the food. It was excellent and the fries were good too. When we go back, we will all probably get the burger. Two beef patties, grilled perfectly. The pickles on top were excellent too, plenty of crunch to them. Finally, the beer was nice and cold! The Cecil was our favorite. Great location, great service and the food has potential.

We came back and I'm so glad we did. Portions are generous. Service was better. Love all the local vendors they use (I see you, Ash & Elm ). A perfect place to enjoy a meal and chat. Need to visit in the summer to enjoy the outdoor spaces.

Came in a couple of weeks ago as I had heard great things about the barbecue, apps, and brews... (fun fact-no longer serve barbecue).Pros- Speed of food service- Warmth of food- Clean and has a fun and lively vibe- Fries were great! (Pretzel app too)- Lots of tables and space for a party of 2 or 22Cons- Slow service (evening we went service was very slow and spotty)- Order incorrect, may have just been a rough night overall

Visit Moontown Brewing Company on a Sunday if you have children, because kids' meals are $2 off on that blessed day. I guess that could account for the number of children and families that I saw when we visited on a Sunday. There were a lot!We got the chili cheese burger, which was an off-menu special. It came out spectacularly messy, like a good chili cheese burger should. However, the burger patty was a little too dry and tough, as though it was made the day before and reheated, then topped with chili. I expected a little more for a special burger, so that was a bummer.I got the pork nachos, which were made with local pork, queso blanco, jalapenos and white onions. The nachos were fine, but needed another element. You have white cheese and white onions and white chips. (And I'm in Whitestown! So much white.) As I was eating my nachos, which were perfectly fine, I kept thinking about what ingredient should be added that would take the nachos from fine to great. Maybe instead of diced white onion, add scallions for some green? Or yellow nacho cheese? Maybe some pico de gallo? I don't want to get into the kitchen and start making menu changes, but if you need me to consult, I am available.My children, who each got a kids' meal, both decided to get a cheeseburger and fries. They both loved their burgers, and said they were the kind of burgers they liked, which are flat patties like smash burgers. I tasted their fries, because I can't help myself, and they were really good. I think next time, I might get a regular burger and fries. I think Moontown is one of those places where you shouldn't overthink things: Just get a basic burger and fries, and you'll be set.

What a fun little spot! Located in an old schoolhouse, Moontown has a welcoming, but spacious vibe throughout. I sat at the bar and received great service. The Irish stout was very good, as was my meal. The salad was served with a sun dried tomato vinaigrette that was excellent.Cool spot!

Food and service has been kind of meh lately. When we first moved to Whitestown we tried Moontown and they had BBQ and soups, chilis etc on their menu. It was soooo good. Then they changed their menu. We were under the impression that they changed their menu seasonally, but they haven't changed it all year and there isn't anything super incredible on it. The food isn't bad, but compared to the first time we are here, it never lives up to the expectations. The salad I had recently had virtually nothing on it. Again it wasn't bad, just kind of meh

Incredible selection of house brews, dark and brooding, clear and refreshing, a menu with ideas executed correctly, I couldn't make up my mind! Sampled their world winning Octoberbest, I found it very similar to the ideal smooth and crispy Sam Adams seasonal beer, tried then went with a growler fill of the lager. Bitter forward rich and complex, cannot quite place the overall notes which is fine, there is plenty to slowly enjoy. Just like this place in the heart of american Midwest, polite staff, beautiful and large bar and main rooms, kid friendly spaces, and there's an outdoor patio as well. It all makes Moontown a place to return for nights and sunshine.

This repurposed schoolhouse is a great place to stop and grab a pint on a sunny afternoon. We stopped on a Saturday afternoon and sat at the bar. Our beer tender was polite and personable and made some good suggestions. We ordered a couple of beers and pretzels with beer cheese and hot mustard. We enjoyed our beer and our pretzels. The environment, being in an old schoolhouse, adds a lot because you are drinking good beer in a fin atmosphere. We will definitely make the drive to Whitestown again!
