Waconia Brewing Company

We decided to take advantage of the 70* day in October (thanks global warming?) and headed over to Waconia Brewing. I had been to Waconia before, but never to the brewery.We got a great flight with some choices recommended by the friendly Beertender including their Vanilla cream ale, their Chocolate PB Porter, their seasonal 2xIPA and an apple ale. All were great with my favorite being the PB Porter.We enjoyed the sun on the patio that is part of their parking lot. But for anyone going while it is still nice out, there is a TON of bees. They're working to mitigate some of that with bee traps; but there still were a ton. So if you're not a fan perhaps enjoying their spacious inside is better!We are planning to come back again soon. Thanks for the hospitality, Waconia!

Another great Minnesota brewery! Went here just to get a sticker and ended up having a few beers and filling up my growler! I had their chocolate peanut butter porter and it hit the spot! The bar tenders were very friendly and offered me lots of samples, hard to turn that down. They have enough seating for large crowds and have a small patio during the summer to enjoy beer in the sun. Parking lot is small but they have street parking. It's close to other businesses and Lake Waconia.

It's not the closest brewery to my house, but it is my favorite in the area. I have yet to have a beer I didn't like and the staff is super friendly. Dog friendly, pretty regular food truck line up, and just COMFORTABLE every time.

Stopped in yesterday for a couple rainy day beers. I didn't get a picture nor get to enjoy their parking lot patio. With the beertenders suggestion I opted for a Mango Kolsch, it was delicious; thank you! I liked that there was a little sitting area in the corner. Despite the bar stools looking vintage and heavy they were actually quite comfortable. As I stated the staff were helpful and friendly. Parking was easy as it's just a small strip-mall building. Thanks Waconia

This brewery is located across the street from my sisters house. So when we visit, we walk over. I'm not super into branching out on my beers but my husband enjoys coming here. Close and convenient!

Waconia Brewing is a nice place to stop and have a beer. They present a decent variety from which to choose from the Wactown Wheat to the Peanut Butter Porter. Not necessarily as much variety as some places, but it seems as they are smart to be putting out what their patrons drink. The service is always friendly and prompt. Very willing to let you try brews before you get a full pour. Once a year WBC invites people to join the Founder's Club. For $100 patrons get a Founder's size glass (4oz more than the regular pour), a sticker, shirt, and lifetime Founder's pours when you order. The setting of this brewery is fairly nice, especially if you are able to get the comfy seats by the fire or the tall couches along the wall. While there, depending on the evening, there's plenty of activity that invites participation if you wish. Parking is somewhat limited in front of the place as it's a part of a mini-mall, but there is parking on the street as well.

This brewery has our current favorite beer, the chocolate peanut butter porter, of course! Tastes just like the peanut butter patty Girl Scout cookies. SO DELICIOUS! Honestly, the best PB porter I've ever had. And yes, I've had the infamous PB porter from a specific brewery in Northeast. This brewery typically has food trucks, which is a great touch and not very common in suburban breweries. The beertenders have always been lovely, too!

If you want to feel ~cool~ alongside your friends that can slam down beers as if they don't taste like licking a sink, look no further than Waconia Brewing Company! They have fun fruity seltzers that LOOK like beer but are not so you don't have to pretend to like beer!!! I honestly might move to Waconia just to become a regular here.

My wife and I took a nice 30 minute drive from Edina, MN for a beer and my wife made a nice salad and great Italian style meat plate.I ordered the chocolate peanut butter cup porter, just amazing! Tastes like drinking a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. It is so good.I tried the flagship 90K IPA next. Very good! Their beer is so good!

Their cookies & cream, and PB&J beers are amongst my favorite beers in the world. They taste exactly how you would envision them!
