Zony Mash Beer Project

Zony Mash has been on my short list for way too long. Finally took the opportunity to pay them a visit, in spite of the fact that they're not within walking distance of home, or pretty much anywhere else. Found a parking spot in their ample lot on the backside of the building. The entrance is a bit tricky to find, but worth the trouble. Great beers. Awesome space inside a former theater with a huge beer garden. Service was less than friendly, but efficient. Food truck on site. Cool band on stage and a craft fair happening on this Sunday afternoon. Glad I got to experience it on a relatively quiet day. Anxious to go back when it's a bit more lively.

Good beers, horrible service. Went last Saturday afternoon and were 1 of 3 groups there. The bartender was not only unhelpful but rude. We were curious about the difference between a regular flight and luxury flight and he mumbled at us in a condescending tone. We ordered a flight and he slammed the wooden flight holder on the counter. We love going to breweries cause the atmosphere and staff are typically chill and friendly, so we were disappointed and caught off guard with our experience here, which is disheartening since they have interesting beers and the atmosphere was cool - live music and the seating is surrounded by the brewing equipment.

This review is based on one experience, but I was intrigued enough by the place to definitely want to go back. The space itself is great. The inside is an old movie theater so it is very spacious with a long bar and many taps. It's very easy to grab a spot and still be distanced where you can have conversations without yelling. The outdoor seating area is also very spacious. They have shaded areas set up and some smaller seating spaces closer to the two different musical stages. They also typically have at least two different food pop ups outside. The beers I've had so far were okay. They still have a lot more so I haven't given up finding one I like. There's also tons of seltzer's I need to try. So this is kind of a pro or a con depending on I guess what mood I'm in. I like sitting outside, but on the weekends they now have live music during certain times. I like live music, but it's not free. (And it shouldn't be) So if you weren't in the mood for music you don't have to leave, but you do have to go inside.

Great space in an old movie theater! It's especially cool for bands and the live DJ sets. They have a lot on tap, and even more canned. I'm a big fan of the king of carrot flowers gose (also really love the neutral milk hotel reference and which came first? Did the song inspire a carrot beer or was it first the idea for this beer then the name came?) Service was wonderful too!

We had a great time at Zony Mash! They had live music and crawfish and the outdoor seating was fabulous. They have some shaded areas and they're dog friendly!

Sketch location but a fabulous music venue has been constructed next to the brewery. They have it well setup with food and ample beer in a real chill atmosphere. We need more outdoor music venues in New Orleans and I am happy to have this one.

Have you been to Zony Mash yet? It's one of my go-to breweries and is located in the historic Gem theater! Kids and animals welcomed. Check out their insta for food truck pop ups, live music, and other events.Recs:* Mango Freeze- great summer sour * Buggin out- passion fruit and guava sour Pop up review at zony mash from Zee's Pizza: No lie this margheritta pizza was a 10/10. The perfect amount of sauce, tomato, cheese, and basil on a perfectly cooked, in my opinion, NY style crust. The pepperoni was also pretty good, very greasy. They popup on Saturdays from 1-till they sell out. Check out their insta for weekly special and preorders. I can't wait to try their specials and their sauces! #noladelights

Tonya was helpful in assisting us with our choices. She was very warm and inviting. The interior is SPACIOUS and the decor is fitting with what New Orleans has shown us tourists to be...A PARTY TOWN!

Pandemic Review:I drive past this space almost every day on my way to work. And I've been really impressed with how Zony has expanded over the last few years. But y'know I don't drink beer so I haven't made visiting a priority.Fast forward to this week, and there was a small event for Give NOLA Day at this location and I knew a bunch of people who were going. So I went on over not expecting there to be much for me. Boy was I wrong! They had 3 different hard seltzers for me to try, plus a food truck and a band!Love that it was outside and socially distanced. And while there were portalets outside, you could also go inside (masked of course) to use a real bathroom. Social distancing was good and the employees were great.And I really liked my hard seltzer! Good job all the way around.

We had a great time here dancing the night away! We went to see John Cleary & The Absolute Monster Gentleman and they were amazing! This place is very spacious and they have a huge beer selection.
