Nebraska Brewing Co.

Came here for the Omaha Winter Market for the second time this fall (second and fourth Sundays of the month thru March) and really enjoyed it each time. There's a good mix of vendors (fresh produce, baked goods, nuts, spices, tea, honey, sweets, granola, jewelry, pet products, arts, leather goods, etc.) and a food truck outside with plenty of places to sit inside. They also served a selection of drinks including their own beers. I don't drink so I can't comment on those but I would come back just to play pinball on one of the many machines lining the wall in the bar area. It's a nice place to hold this fun event and easy to get to right at 108th & Harrison (across the street from Rotella's) and had ample parking.

I LOVE this...you find friendly and attentive vendors..samples...and amazing bloody Mary's (an entire MEAL in a cup (bacon is always a plus!) gift ideas, shirts spices, cookies, bread, fresh greens, drinks and food all in one place! Enjoyed my afternoon browsing (and buying) great location ..food trucks outside as well...wonderful atmosphere ..very casual...relaxing ..shopping and meeting up with friends kinda environment.

This was awful. I was planning an outing for some friends, so I suggested a trivia night. I found online that Nebraska Brewing Company hosts trivia on Friday night. This would be the first of several disappointments. They do not.Their website states they have food. They do not.Their website also states they regularly have food trucks. They did not.The bartender moved at a snails pace. The place is crazy loud. It's very difficult to even have a conversation. Don't think I'll be going back.

Repeat visit to Nebraska Brewing Co today but first time for the Czech Fest. Plenty of smiling faces enjoying the polkas from Barry Boyce Band with their steins/mugs full of NBC brewed beer. Homemade spicy Bloody Mary's and blackberry shots!! Even with the Czech fest going on in the large, spacious brew room, if you wanted to pull up a stool for the game and chill at the bar, you can. Friendly staff with prompt bar service and plenty of parking all around the building. The owners gave such a nice speech at the festival about their longevity in the business and in the area. How much the community meant to them and how proud they were to have many years of annual Czech Fest ynder their belt. Truly a family friendly vibe. On a cold winter day, it's warm and inviting here at N.B.Co.

It's actually a pretty cool venue, but you know how things can be tainted by the server. She didn't have much to say and was generally just there to serve beer. If I were asking for a bud, I certainly don't expect the server to do much more than pour it, but at a brewery, I do. Tell me about your product. Be energized by it. Not all of us are regulars. Further, apparently we were there during happy hour. Didn't find out about that until afterwards. The venue is cool though. They have several pinball machines and a large room with a huge screen. Simple outdoor space, but it's in the shade which helps when it's 90 degrees outside. Funny thing is, I think the games are free, but nothing indicated that while we were there. Still not sure, except what I read on Yelp. Might want to publicize that a little. Or maybe it's a secret only the regulars get let in on. The beers were tasty. They've got a wide variety, so you will find something you like. We had two that I seriously considered get a 750 ml of and taking to the hotel. I'd encourage anyone to go. It's a good part of the Omaha beer scene.

My family along with my sister-in-law and her family stopped by to check out their swag. Our kids were super excited to see free video games as soon as they walked in. We all opted for beers to relax and visited that afternoon. The lady working the bar was friendly, helpful in answering our questions, and extremely patient when she has to reset the pinball machine several times. I definitely want to stop by again to try a few more beers.

We've been here several times for different group events. The beers are varied and you'll be able to find a favorite with some testing. If your group is more than 5 you'll end up at different tables.The games are cool and the setting is what you expect from a Nebraska tap room.

On my most recent trip to Nebraska Brewing Company I was able to take the tour of the facility. They offer tours once or twice a week led by staff members, so you can see the process in which beer is made here. Perhaps I just haven't paid much attention but I don't notice Nebraska brewing company's beers at a lot of local restaurants that I dine and drink at. One of the things the owner said during the tour was that they are focused a little bit more on distribution side of the business so they are more popular outside of the state than within our own state. This makes a lot of sense as to why I don't see it often when I'm out and about in Omaha. Now that I've had a chance to try about 5 to 6 of their beers I definitely want more. The melange a trois and the brunette nut brown were really stellar, but I did enjoy a bunch of the others too. Since the restaurant brewery location in Papillion is a bit far for me as well as this brewing facility in LaVista, it's not a place I go very often but I know when I do I'm going to stock up on some of my favorites! They were probably one of the first pioneers of craft beers in Omaha, I would say they're pretty heavy contenders with many of the local favorites. If they ever switch gears and wanted to be more in restaurants and local eateries (as opposed to being more of a distributor) should probably open a location more "in-town" like other small craft brewers have done. I think they would do well.

My wife and I love going to Nebraska Brewing. Many different choices of beer. You can be assured you will find one you like. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable on their beers, which rotate constantly, so something new to try each time you go. When they have music bingo it is very fun. Staff is very accommodating. We went on a very busy evening and the owner set up some tables in the beer making area so we could sit.

We always stop in for a brew when we come home to Nebraska for a visit. The brews are all great!
