Nicole S. "Do you like to get drunk? Do you like to wear cut-off denim shorts? Do you like to say "woo hoo"? Then you will love Ole Smoky! I like 33.33 percent of those things, but even so, I had a great time at this moonshine distillery. If you're doing a moonshine tasting, then this is how it goes. You step up to the big bar when it's your designated time, and you will be served several small shots of different moonshine. I believe my total was seven different tastes of moonshine, which seems like a lot, but the pours are thimble-sized. The bartenders tell you about each moonshine they pour, so you get to learn about the different flavors.As a palate cleanser between each shot, they offer you a complimentary beer (one of Yee-Haw Brewing Company's signature beers) or hard seltzer. I picked the Cerveza, a Mexican lager, because it was one of the lower ABV choices. Between this and the petite tastes of moonshine, I walked away definitely feeling a nice buzz, but not anywhere near "woo-hoo" territory. My favorite tastes were the banana pudding cream moonshine (it tasted like boozy banana cream pudding), and the moonshine pineapples: literally moonshine-soaked pineapple chunks, which are offered at the end. They are a well-oiled machine here. My party stepped up to the bar at the time we were supposed to, then the bartenders poured our booze, lickety-split, in an almost choreographed frenzy. Then we were on our way, and the next group took our place. There were a lot of people here, but the service is efficient. I had a great time tasting moonshine."

(protip: it's walking distance to the brewery with the best ambiance: Fait La Force Brewing)The guy working the taps was super cool and, unlike some other breweries (Living Waters) that have draconian rules against samples, they are ENCOURAGED here.It didn't seem like they specialized in any particular type of beer but they had lots of fizzy, yellow, hoppy beers which are what I like! Bonus points for using some very new, cutting-edge hop strains!They had a spicy chicken sandwich food truck outside, I was pretty bummed that I already ate.Come here for friendly gab and generous sampling!"

Andrew H. "Of the many breweries I visited in Nashville, this one has...by far...the best ambiance.The outdoor area feels like a superhero base. It overlooks Nashville and has a massive open-air deck.The interior is completely different. A little ornate, a little opulent and very stylish without coming off even a bit tacky.The beers here remind me of one of my favorite breweries in Anchorage: Cynosure. All their beers fit into two categories:1) Belgian Ales: spicy, yeasty, peppery, phenolic beers of higher than average strength.2) Lagers: pale and crispy chugger beers.I'm not a fan of #1 anymore (why? I don't know. In my early 20's Belgian beers were my favorite, not I'm not into those phenolic flavors that I largely percieve as "musty") but I am a bornagain Lager Boi. The lagers here were fantastic. Crisp, clear, and refreshing.Most breweries seem to only have one or two lagers on tap, here they made up half the taplist.Definitely give them a try!"

The folks there were all friendly and helpful, and it's fun to try some of the unusual brews they offer and pick up some packs of favorites that aren't available elsewhere.

I loved how sharp the carbonation was.I do wish their band wasn't as loud. We had to sit outside to talk to each other. Which would have been nice if it hadn't just rained! We normally like to come on calm days where there are usually only a couple people there!"

Mike B. "Let me begin by saying I am a Mug Club member, and I love Tailgate. Now on to the review of this location. My wife and I were headed to a Nashville Sounds game and decided to visit Tailgate Germantown before the game. I have Ben to multiple locations, but this was my first time at this one. It did not disappoint! Fantastic beer and food selection, just like every location. Everything was what I expected from Tailgate. The beer was great, as usual. I had 2 different beers, and opted for lighter selections - TENN Golden Lager and Patio Time BB Blonde Ale. Both were great choices! My wife, who is NOT a beer drinker, tried the Sounds Strawberry Lemonade Shandy and really enjoyed it. Of course I sampled it, and it was quite good - a nice summer drink, for sure. We had some adult chicken nuggets and pretzel bites. Both were great! Hot, fresh and very tasty. Service was excellent!! We were greeted the minute we walked in the door, and everyone was very attentive and helpful. At least 3 different staff members walked by our table and asked if we needed anything. Then, when I went to the bar for a second beer, I was asked by every server if I needed help. Outstanding service!Finally, I love the location. The patio sits beside the ballpark, and the views are great! Easy access from the brewery to the gate at the ballpark makes it nice when you're relaxing inside before a game. This was my first visit, but it certainly will not be my last."

You order a beer from the small bar and find a seat at one of several long tables in the tap room. Though the tap room is somewhat small, they make it work."

Luckily this is one of the breweries in this town that encourages sampling and the ordering of flights.Definitely get out of the downtown madness and give these folks a shot!"

Bassline Brewing

Bassline Brewing

★★★★★ 4.9 (11)

Dustin H. "First visit to this brewery and I really enjoyed it. Met some colleagues for a drink and some appetizers. The "Coffee & TV" beer is one of the best beers I've had in a long time. It's a stout that's flavorful and dark but not too heavy. No overtly bitter aftertaste, just pleasant notes of coffee. I also tried the "100 Days IPA" and it was good too. As for food, we tried the pretzels and beer cheese which were fantastic, the "Big Stuffed Portobello Mushroom" and a Sausage Roll. The Mushroom plates very nice, it just looks fantastic. However, it's a bit cumbersome as a shareable as it requires you to hack off a piece at a time. I imagine it works best for a couple to share on the same plate. But flavor-wise, it's on point and was cooked (texture) to perfection. The sausage roll was crispy, cheesy, and just spicy enough.Atmosphere is solid--a band was picking away off and on while we were there but other than a bass solo, never really got going. I imagine it's pretty loud inside if a full band is performing. There's some outside space which is nice, but it's not shaded/covered so it is probably best in the evening. Parking is free (!) if you can find it (quite full as this is attached to the L&L Market")."

It's also lets the kids experience top tier pizza. As a Northeastern pizza snob, it is very important that my children understand the difference. What's even more important is that they understand there is room for both bad pizza and good pizza and that they can identify the difference. The ambiance is wonderful. I love the open kitchen. The addition of wine is stellar, especially the Averna. The teal MVP is their ice cream. We most recently had the honey sesame and please, sir, may I have some more? Do it often."

Kevin B. "We love Tailgate and have been going to the original Charlotte location for years, but we finally ventured over to the East Nashville location last month. Parking is a bit trickier here as they only have a small dedicated lot to the left of the building (when looking at it straight on) and the parking lot in the back is off-limits as you'll get towed. We ended up parking a few blocks away and walking so it wasn't a big deal, but make sure you don't get towed.Service was great here (as it is at the other location) and the staff was very helpful. We got a flight of their IPAs and a glass of one of their sours and enjoyed a delicious margherita pie made with burrata; they had different pizzas here than at the main location, so it was nice to try something new. The beer was very tasty and their beer has been getting better and better over the years. The pizza was also great and we would definitely order that again. They also had the Yankees on, which was great and nothing goes better than baseball and beer. All in all, it's a great brewery/restaurant and we'd definitely come back!"

Lots of distressed brick with an "urban ruins" feel.I thought the beer was also above average.I love their unique system of displaying all the beers they have on tap, they are categorized by the "spirit" or "feel" of the beer: light & crisp, hoppy, dark, sour, etc. That's a pretty great way to organize brews and I'm shocked I haven't seen it at other breweries.This place is apparently a chain, but you'd never know. It doesn't have that cheesy brewery chain vibe present at places like BJ's or Rock Bottom or Gordon Biersch. The beer here is also much better than those spots!"

Honky Tonk Brewing

Honky Tonk Brewing

★★★★☆ 4.3 (24) • $

John T. "I just kept thinking, "I'm having a beer in Metro Center." Honky Tonk combined some of the things I love about living in Nashville: exploring neighborhoods, beer, and experiencing local flavor. 'Discovering' spots like HTB is what makes Yelp so useful. When's the last time *you* had a beer in Metro Center?Driving down Rosa Parks, I had little idea of where I was heading. I am very rarely in this part of town and was surprised to find out there there are more than industrial parks hiding amongst the hills. I allowed my GPS to do the thinking even when the industrial park security guard assured me that if I was looking for a brewery, I should head downtown. Keep following Cumberland Bend. Drive through the construction and into the park dead end. HTB will be on your left side. I parked (advantage of the location is a ridiculous amount of parking spots) and walked in. As soon as I walked in, I noticed the noise level. A group was playing foosball while another was eating brought-in food and screaming. Alright. A bit rowdier than I expected for a Wednesday, but let's see where this goes. Truth be told, I was just excited to see so many people here. I assumed that I'd find a quiet space with few people. Not the case. Good. I like seeing businesses in non-popular areas doing well.I met up with my friend and we bellied up to the bar. This time of year, I am in to blondes... maybe a red. HTB had me covered. We started with the Biscuit Honey Blonde and it did the trick. This was a perfect beer to help say good-bye to summer. This is the beer you have on a deck or around a grill waiting for someone to make a burger for you. The color and head gave legitimacy to the 'biscuit honey' name. This was a fun beer. At 5.5% it has a bit more heft that you might be expecting. Feeling good, we thought we'd check out The Wheel Of Misfortune. Yep, in addition to the foosball, high ceilings, stage area, and Coors Light water spigot (that's some good shade), HTB has a wheel to spin to keep the party going. You can only spin once and the honor system is in full effect to abide by the wins or losses. I don't do misfortune so I didn't spin. My friend did and she had to post a selfie with the HTB hashtag. She got off lucky. She could have had to twerk on stage. Seriously. That's a part of the wheel. #geniusIn the mood to keep talking, we got another beer. I was disappointed that the summer seasonal was an IPA so I asked a question: "What's the TN Jed?" One sample later, I had a pint of that bad boy at the ready. TN Jed is an unusual beer. For my tastes, it's a wheat combined with a red, making it unique... and appropriate for the time of year. I think this would be a better seasonal but I know I am in the minority wrt IPAs. Jed has a 6.2% going on so only have one if you're driving. I think the beer would be best enjoyed when paired with food. I plan on testing out this theory. By the time we left, the loud bunch from when I arrived was starting to settle down. I enjoyed the festive atmosphere and seasonal beers. Despite thinking that this was going to be my secret brewery, I was happy to discover that many others have long been enjoying HTB without my two cents. Metro Center, comin' at ya! HTB is going to see more of me."

Crazy Gnome Brewery

Crazy Gnome Brewery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (33)

Doug G. "Crazy Gnome is a local micro/nano-brewery that sits directly on Main Street about a block or two from the heart of Five Points. While they are situated on Main Street, finding them can be a little tricky as they sit in the corner of the same building that houses Main Street Liquors. Parking can be a bit of situation here, especially when it gets packed. They do not have a dedicated lot, but you can consider the liquor store parking just that...as besides street parking, that is the best place to look. On weekends and in the evenings you can scoop up a spot in the lot for Gym 5...but all the other times, be planful or creative for parking! Crazy Gnome isn't the largest spot, but they have done a good job with the space they have. Outside they have a recreation area with a few games you can play or you can chill at one of the tables/picnic tables. Just inside the doors you have a 6 to 8 stool bar, a communal standing table, standard 4 tops and even a lounge area fitted with sofas and chairs. We opted for a picnic table outside which allowed us to watch the folk on the treadmills at the neighboring gym as we sipped our carb loaded beers! They have a constant rotation of beers with usually 8 - 12 actively on tap. I usually prefer the smoother and lighter selections so I went with the Protect our Pollinators on round 1 and finished my visit off with their Breakfast of Champions. Both were great light beers. My partner is a sour fella, in attitude and beer taste (badum tss), so he went with the April Sours Bring May Flowers and then the Lemon Squeezy. Service was excellent, the bartenders were both friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming..as was the sign on the door notating that they are a LGBTQ+ safe space...was great to see that! Definitely a spot we will be back to!"

★★★★☆ 4.3 (26) • $$

John E. "You can find this location of Bearded Iris Brewing at 4101 Charlotte Ave Ste 40, Nashville, TN 37209 in Sylvan Park - it's actually built into the old Sylvan Supply (warehouse I think). There's a lot of parking around the buildings but your best bet on busy nights is to park in the big lot behind Sylvan Supply.This is a pretty special location of Bearded Iris with a great intimate feel - it is a bit noisy but you'll feel right at home - it's almost bohemian with the soft glow of lighted signs and wood treatments behind the bar. The really amazing thing about this location is the Secret Ramen window at one end - you scan a QR code to view the menu and pay in-app. What gets delivered is an amazing bowl of Nashville-style ramen, combining local ingredients (like smoked pork and collard greens) with a well executed broth. I had the Spicy Tonkatsu and whatever pepper they had in there was pretty deadly - beware the seeds, they took my breath away.I tried a few beers while there:* Dot & Dash Double IPA 3.9/5 - Fairly bright NEIPA with hazy body, notes of stone fruit and citrus, finishes a bit harsh and green.* Brightline Fruited Sour 4/5 - Very tart, big raspberry notes with a touch of sweetness on the finish.* Hollywood Villain 4.3/5 Imperial Stout - Quite tasty thick bodied pastry stout with notes of sweet creamy chocolate and nice barrel notes, finishes slightly boozy, sweet marshmallow and full.* Know It All Imperial NEIPA 4.1/5 - Quite a slammable Double NEIPA with creamy slight tart and sweet citrus body, notes of lime and peach, somewhat floral hoppy finish.* Fake Hate Imperial NEIPA 4.4/5 - Quite a tasty Imperial NEIPA with big citrus and sweet tropical notes in a orange juicy body, well balanced hoppy finish with low bitterness.We sat at the bar and the tenders were very attentive. In all, great brewery and top notch beers and ramen!"

I'm not so much a beer drinker anymore but they have you covered with wine, mead, pop tails, soda, Maypop, hard kombucha, not hard kombucha, etc. Their food menu is also on point. They have snacks, pizzas, and a large vegan pizza menu. They have something for everyone! Even kids, they have stuff for kids. Speaking of kids, they have a giant industrial playground. It's in the back corner, with easy access to the inside, but far enough away for the non-kid crowd to enjoy their time there. It's so great if you want to meet with friends and actually talk. The kids enjoy the playground, you can have a conversation, it's a win-win. I would also like to note the parents are vigilant with their kids. The kids are having fun, supervised. I went this morning for the soccer match. Bummer USA, but not a bummer on the setup. This is the best place to watch sports, movies, see live music, etc. The setup is spacious and pleasant! And speaking of pleasant, there are so many nooks and crannies to post up in. Overall, ENBW is a no-brainer!"

I found this spot on Yelp while searching for a sports bar with plenty of TVs, and we had a great experience here!Rock'n Dough is attached to the neighboring Hampton Inn, just in case you're having trouble finding it as you're driving up. The restaurant wasn't too busy on a Saturday evening: it was easy to find parking, and we were seated right away. I even asked the hostess if she could change the channels for us to tune into a specific college football game, and she was happy to accomodate!Our server, Allie, was phenomenal throughout our meal. She had great recommendations - which is how we ended up starting off with the Pretzel Bites as an appetizer. Believe me when I say that these are a must-order - crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious when paired with their warm queso dip.We decided to split two 16" pizzas between the four of us, which ended up being the perfect amount. We even had a few slices left over to take home with us. The USA! USA! pizza was incredible - a nice balance between all of the "supreme" toppings we know and love. The real star, however, was the Taco Pizza. I'm all about this new wave of food fusion, and Rock'n Dough is doing it better than any other restaurant I've been to in recent memory. The flavors just make sense - with the taco meat is cooked to resemble the more traditional sausage pizza topping, and the queso sauce mirroring a "white pie" style pizza. I highly recommend Rock'n Dough to Nashville locals and visitors alike. I certainly know where I'll be the next time there's a big game on!"

While it's not the best in ambiance (that would be Monday Night or Fait), nor the best in beer quality (that would be Smith & Lentz or Barrique), or service (that would be Jackalope)...it's just very above average on every one of these aspects.It feels more like a brewer's brewery than most places in town. It's in an industrial part of town and it's in a big boxy warehouse building.On my unofficial ranking scale of the culture of their beer with a 1 being most traditional and a 10 being marshmallow-aged IPA milk sours: I would give this place a 6! They play it safe but aren't afraid to get a little innovative.The ambiance is like a factory that's been converted into your grandfather's rustic library.My only regret is that this was my last stop and I didn't get to sample more of their beers.I was in Nashville for Taylor Swift and I saw a few people IN THE CONCERT with cans of it but...

The hot honey wings weren't anything special. The birria pizza wasn't special either. The consume was thick and tasted like tomatoes. We chose to have the cilantro on the side by the way.

I'm not sure why we waited so long, but I can guarantee you that we won't make that same mistake twice. On our way home from an after-hours event at Adventure Science Center, we saw some Tennessee Brew Works signs and decided to stop in. There's plenty of street parking available - and when you step inside, you're hit with a welcoming, local vibe that's reminiscent of any true Nashville staple. We walked up to the bar, and were greeted immediately by Jimmy. He let us know that they had just tapped the Oktoberfest keg that morning, and that he highly recommended trying it if we were in the mood for something fun. Jimmy also let us know that we could sit anywhere - inside or outside - and that they'd come and take our order there instead of us having to wait at the bar.Despite being busy with bachelorettes (this seems to be a popular stop for party buses), we had wonderful service on the patio throughout our visit. We didn't order any food this time around, but noted that they have a full kitchen. I decided on a flight, which comes with your choice of five of their drafts. My favorite was the Oktoberfest - and my husband and I agreed that it was extra crisp (again, probably because they had just tapped it!) The Tennessaké was also a fun, lighter beer -- perfect for sipping on a hot day. Their draft list is diverse enough that everyone from devout beer drinkers to those just dipping their toe into craft beer will find something they like. They even have a few cocktails and wine offerings. As with many local breweries, TBW does close at 10, but that's still plenty of time to enjoy this Music City favorite. I can't wait to return soon!"
