Magnolia Pub used to be my favorite place to get a burger and a pint of delicious ale. The burger went through different buns, some good, some too bready, but the 1/2 lb. Niman Ranch patty was always perfectly cooked. I usually...

The first time I tried Magnolia I liked it a lot: good food and beer. But on three more recent visits, trying about a dozen beers on draught and cask, I have found every single beer to be terrible. Most of them taste watered...

Magnolia, two nights in a row – I am on FIRE! Well, I had a double (blind) date with a friend, and while I suggested The Bowery as our meeting point, the boys in question chose Magnolia instead. I wasn’t really pleased,...

Has anybody every been to the Sly Fox Brewery in Royersford? Do they offer brewery tours and tasting or is it just a restaurant/pub? I’m looking for the beer version of a winery tour/tasting for a bunch of guys to do this...

Has anyone ever gone on a tour at the brewery? What’s the tasting situation like? Do they have a restaurant attached? Thanks!

the brewery in Patchogue a few weeks ago. I’m not sure what I was expecting but I drive past it a few times before I realized it was right in front of me. They have a low-key tasting room where they serve free samples. They...

I’m visiting my bf this weekend in Newark, NJ and we’re thinking of visiting a NJ brewery. We’re looking for a place with good beer and good food, that’s not too far away. Any recommendations? Thanks!
