A few friends and I went to Springfield Brewing Company to catch a quick drink before dinner reservation elsewhere. Overall, this is a huge place so it’s easy to get a table, but the beers leave a little to be desired.
This is a very...expansive space, and more of a brewpub than a brewery. They do have all the brewing equipment visible, and when I visited they had 11 beers on tap.
The beers had a good amount of variety, with an equal mix of IPA and stouts, with some with lagers. That’s better than these beer programs that are all IPA or all sours. Not many of the beers were to my taste, but the small batch blackberry Wit was the best for me. (But that is all up to individual taste.) I do appreciate that almost all their beers you can buy in cans, which shows this place is pretty commercialized.
Service was a bit slow and because I had read some not so positive reviews online, we just ordered the nachos as a quick starter. There wasn’t a lot on them and of course the food here tends to be more fried. It took quite a while for the food to come out, but that may be due to some covid staffing issues.
Overall, not a bad place for a quick drink, but I wouldn’t eat here.More
