Unexpected delight. We had a couple of hours to kill in Lexington and came down to the distillery district. Lots to do in the area but we'd never been to Ethereal Brewing. What a pleasant surprise! Lots of seating, great place to watch the game, clean restrooms. Can enjoy indoors or outdoors. Some snack items on the menu but located between Desperado's (a great Mexican restaurant) and Goodfellas Pizza. Can bring food into Ethereal. Probably the best craft beer in the area. We had the Throwback and Festbier. Pricing is better than most local breweries. Nothing bad to say about service. It wasn't over the top but certainly adequate. Already planning to visit again!

Ethreal Brewing is located in the Old Distillery District in Lexington. They have a lot of indoor and outdoor seating to offer. The beer list looked very intriguing offering flights, 10oz pours and 16oz pours. Additionally, they have liquors, cider, seltzer, and minimal food. The staff were quick to turn drinks around and pricing was vey fair. My group tried the hazy ipas, pale ale, hefeweizen, sour. The beers were good but not the best we've had. My mom also got a tito's sprite which they ran out of vodka options outside of well on a Saturday evening. We were happy we stopped by to try but wouldn't go out of our way to come back.

I love this brewery. It's spacious and so many yummy beers to chose from. I got the flight with cherry limeade slice of sun and kiss the rings and blueberry lager. All so good. You can bring in food. There are plenty of places to choose.

Very chill brewery in a equally cool multi-business space in Lexington. We're not from here, just stopping by on our way through. We arrived just after opening on a Monday. Aside from the construction happening outside which killed the outdoor ambiance, our visit was 5-star. Inside is still open air & urban-chic vibe. Chill music playing. My son really liked the Blunt Force Trauma, a bourbon barrel aged stout. They also had cans of cider from Pivot. The Kentucky Sunrise, a cherry-pear, was excellent. The Fadtastic was also really good. No food other than chips, but the little district has goodfellas pizza right next door. We got a slice from there and all together the combo made for a terrific lunch stop. Our beer tender was awesome - great service, welcoming & offered a free sticker when I asked if they had any. Definitely worth a stop!

I finally ate crow and came back in here after so many years of boycott. I met my friend Belinda out here for a beer or 4. Their variety of beers here along with the type and style of beer is so good. There were a few on the menu board that I had to try. I owe this business a big apology for my avoiding this brewery based off a horrible experience with the bartender the day I was here ages ago in their early years. Kelley was working today and made my day. I started with a scary berry and loved it. Lots of options. I will definitely have to come back here on my own without an arm twist. These guys know their shit. Check them out.

This place has definitely improved over the past several years, and now consistently has interesting and flavorful beers available. They are also noticeably invested in the community, which always makes me more eager to support a business. If the weather is nice, sitting out on their patio is a great experience. The inside is dark and a long and narrow seating area that perpetually feels crowded, so I don't love the indoor experience. Definitely a brewery/company worth checking out, and a great part of Lexington.

Distillery district was such a fun place! My friends and I came here for ciders and beers, I did the blackberry cider and then there's outdoor seating which is nice. There's games in the back, but loved the open space. Bartenders were super friendly as well. Highly recommend coming here and it's right in the middle of all the other restaurants and other breweries.

I'm a long-term fan of Ethereal Brewing, but today I was super excited to bring my bonus dog out for a good cause and support Saved By Fate Rescue! Enjoyed some amazing libations while soaking up the fun energy of tons of doggies!The beer and cider were both 10/10 (never go wrong with the bartenders recommendations), plus they welcome outside food.

Great place. We love the staff, beer, and atmosphere. This place is truly one of a kind, and a hidden gem in Lexington. There always have a great rotation of beers and have something for everyone. The vibe and character are also excellent. Cannot recommend this place enough.
