What Jenny Maurer likes about Independent Brewing Company:
This was my first visit, and it exceeded my expectations. They offer a fantastic selection of dishes, the prices are reasonable, and there’s ample space for everyone. I never felt rushed or cramped; the atmosphere was excellent. The customer service was great as well. If you're seeking a wonderful dining experience, I highly recommend this place!

What Michael Sanders doesn't like about Independent Brewing Company:
Not dog friendly. Waited till after we ordered our drinks then told us the dogs weren't allowed. That's cool we won't be back see you at Double Groove Brewery where they actually ARE dog friendly. View all feedback.

If in Bel Air, there are two breweries and this one is by far the better one for beer and atmosphere!!

They have over 20 of their beers on tap. Some of the best Gluten-free beers that I've tasted. That atmosphere was fun and the staff was very friendly.

The blue eyed blonde was good, but I enjoyed the saison more. Great atmosphere. Fish (the director of fun) was awesome. Very cool new spot in town.
