Bowigens is located in Avalon Marketplace, a small food hall. This brewery has a relaxed, friendly vibe that's perfect for kicking back with friends. Their rotating selection of beers showcases a range of flavors, from bold IPAs to smooth stouts, along with delightful ciders and refreshing sours. The outdoor patio is a fantastic place to enjoy a brew, especially during their lively events and Avalon food truck gatherings. The staff is incredibly friendly and passionate about their craft, always eager to share recommendations or help you find a new favorite. They also have small pour options to create your own beer flights. If you're in the Avalon area and looking for a great local brewery experience, Bowigens is definitely worth a visit!

There's not much to say about Bowigens. This location is a staple of the Avalon Marketplace. They have seating outside and bar side, as well as being able to bring a beer to your table inside. I'm not a huge "regular" beer person (IPAs, etc.) but they make delicious beers even I can drink. I tend to stick to their sours.

This was a super cute beer place! I am newer to the Avalon Park area and was down the street with some girlfriends for brunch when we decided to go check this place out. It was a beautiful day and so we sat down and we're able to order a couple flights and sample other beers. As you can see from their menu they have a ton of variety. The bartenders were very friendly and helped us choose the best beer for us. They let us sample whichever we pleased. The prices are what you would expect from a brewery in Avalon Park but I think it's worth it to go again. Also, in this little area is a market place that is super cute! It's nice to grab a beer and visit the shop or have a meal

It's gone downhill. It used to be great service & beer, & the male bartender gave samples based on what's new & my likes. I'd order a flight once we had them chosen. It was always fun. I've been there a few times. I even would post my dog on social media from there because they asked me to. Horrible service now. The pregnant bartender didn't like much of anything on the menu, really negative, judgmental, & stingy. Wouldn't allow samples to create a flight. Gave 2 tiny drops as "samples" and said no more samples without purchasing a pint first. What?!? Extremely rude glare. Couldn't create my flight. It was bizarre & insulting. Church lady bartender criticizing the different alcohol percentages, one had 12%, & terrible service. (Don't like it, well then, don't drink it...) There were Hispanic laborers that just got off work building in Avalon, and they said she was rude to them too, very snooty, cold. One said he was almost done with his beer and he would gladly order me all the samples I wanted to pick my flight flavors, he insisted, but I told him no thanks, I'm not interested anymore, & will find another place with better customer service. Had been going there for years, this female bartender was so out of place, the worst, a huge difference from previous years. They're also relying too much on cans. If you find a flavor you like (for a while I liked sours) it maybe can only be purchased in cans to take home.

This was our first time visiting this newer location for Bowigens and we loved it! We normally visit the OG location but made our way out to this one today. The bartenders were so friendly and we loved the atmosphere. After realizing it's only 23 minutes from us in Lake Nona we have decided that this will be part of our new brewery rotation!!

I was pretty excited to hear Bowigens was coming to Avalon Park! Located in the new Marketplace, this little brewery has an indoor/outdoor seating area with local brews on tap. This place is definitely fun and worth a stop if you're in the area!

Instead of waiting for Octoberfest 1 weekend a year, I can now get beer in Avalon Park every day? Ok, I'm sure I could do that before with a few of the businesses around, but nothing with beer in the title.The establishment is located on the corner of the building and there's an outside bar that encompasses both sides. The inside bar is right inside the door. They have quite a few of their own beers, a couple of guest beers, and also some wines and seltzers. Having just opened, this place gets BUSY, especially on a weekend. People waiting in line to get beer, snagging seats as soon as they open, and doing what they can to get a refreshing beer. We started with a flight then moved on to a few other beers.If you do secure a seat, it's a great spot to have a beer and choose from the many food venues at the marketplace.The staff is attentive except when they're not. As I said, it can get busy and take a while to get a refill or order another. But the staff is super friendly and various team members checked on us throughout the night. Thanks for coming to Avalon Park! I look forward to more beers at this place.

Being able to have amazingly fresh beer is your divine right, but to have options and a 10+ tap handle variety is pure capitalism. Yeah, I like to compare religion with business because... aren't they the same? I am joking, I apologize for hurting your feels. The thing is, it's been such a long time since Avalon and Waterford Lakes blossomed that it was just a matter of time since we got our first brewery. I mean, we have good pizza, good coffee, good BBQ, and now good beer. Yeah, things are heating in this part of town. And this won't be the end of it, more good stuff is coming. I hit Bowigens during Oktoberfest, I know that no one celebrates this holiday except people with a drinking problem, ahem, but if you do, they had a nice variety of German inspired beers. I wish all their tap handles were German beers, but I can take two. Next year, I expect more German beers, after all, the big breweries do it and it attracts a lot of people. Other beers are also good here, the space is nice and comfortable, very urban but never crowded. This is a good location and I think more breweries will open nearby soon. The trend is: good beer pulls good food. Let's get trendy.

I am so thrilled to have a brewery practically in my back yard! Situated in the newly opened Marketplace at Avalon Park, this Bowigens is a new location from the original Bowigens in Casselberry. We've been a few times now and they've added some new releases that will definitely keep me coming back. They offer not only a bunch of their own beers but also have some rotating guest taps. The variety is good with some easy drinking lighter beers as well as some great IPA's and sours for the more adventurous beer connoisseurs. The bar has both indoor and outdoor seating and the staff has been super awesome. It's a perfect place to relax and enjoy a beer or four. ;)
