Service was very good and atmosphere was great as you look at the huge brewing vats and equipment. The beer was mostly ciders, IPA's and sours...non of which I like. I did find a really good nitro that was creamy and delicious.

We have been coming here for many years and truly enjoy this place. It's a casual vibe with a great selection of beers that is always changing. For basic beer fans, the Kato Lager is a good choice. We also like the Cross Czech Pils (seasonal), Rhuby Sour and Organ Grinder. Mankato Brewery is also community-minded and have limited-run brews that benefit local nonprofits as well as host events that give back. Their outdoor space is dog-friendly and occasionally has food trucks. Even though they don't serve their own food, patrons can bring their own or order in.

We stopped in after a 25 mile bike ride. Thanks to Minsips, we enjoyed a couple of two-for-one beers. The Oktoberfest was good and the cream ale was nice also.

Great brewery in an industrial area near North Mankato. Awesome service on a Sunday afternoon! We tried a couple of tasty brews: Organ Grinder Amber Ale & their Oktoberfest. Both were wonderful, especially after a nice 25 mile bicycle ride on the Mankato River Ramble. The Mankato Brewery was a sponsor for this years ride-thank you Mankato Brewery!

It had a great ambience as well all the beers we tried were great. The people who served us were very friendly as well. Dobo also gave us a wonderful tour of the brewery. I get why they have been as successful as they are. We will definitely be back.

This is not my first visit to Mankato Brewing and they do not disappoint! Staff has always been very friendly. The outdoor patio is causal but welcoming. The indoor atmosphere has a strong industrial vibe with the brewing machinery out in the open for all customer to admire. The beer selections are wonderful. I am yet to try a beer I didn't like (and I've tried almost all of them). This brewery also gives you the options to do flights. The brewery has live bands and food trucks on certain nights. This is definitely a spot to check out!

Love this place. I've been going here with friends for a year now. Mad Butcher and Organ Grinder are fan favorites. They always seem to have new styles to try every time I go there. Indoor has a great atmosphere. Bartenders are always friendly.

They've made big strides in the past 4-5 years for overall appeal of the taproom area and quality of beers. Someof the beer is hit or miss, but the hoppy IPA's have been great!! They've improved their branding and are definitelyIn all the local bars! Good summer spot to hang out, and have attracted someGood music over the years. Kind of off the beaten path in North Mankato, but worth a stop!
