I tried the Wit Willie, while my wife chose the Zapper sour. I regret not staying for lunch, as our next destination was disappointing. The expansive warehouse-style layout provides a great view of the brewing tanks. They also offer axe throwing, although we didn't give it a try. I would definitely return the next time we are in the area. It's roughly a 26-minute drive from the state park, but it's definitely worth it.

The beers were incredibly tasty, and the building also hosts two local businesses: Downtown Southern Funk for delicious food and Blade Bull Axe Throwing for some fun entertainment. Both the beer and food were outstanding! (I didn’t try the axe throwing, but it looked like a blast!) They have both indoor and outdoor seating, including a spacious beer garden. It’s an ideal spot for individuals, groups, or families. We had a fantastic time at this local brewery!

Very cool venue with pool tables, axe throwing, and various video games. Lots to do, and plenty to drink. I hope I can experience what looks to be a beautiful beer garden next time I'm passing through (with temperatures in the 40s, I didn't bother to sit outside this time! . Highly recommend a visit here.

Plenty of tables and room for large groups, nice selection of beer on tap, and if you want, you can try your hand at some axe throwing! We enjoy the atmosphere and of course the beer! would recommend anyone to stop ...

He explained the beer menu and let us have taste samples before making our final selection. He gave us menus to Downtown Southern Funk, the on site food provider. Our meals were prepared exactly to our specifications. The sweet potato waffle fries were delicious and lightly sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. A sweet surprise! We learned about the very unique sport of axe throwing and saw the current scores posted on the leader board. There are 2 billiard tables and a jukebox in one area. In another area there are cozy chairs for private conversations. Lots of dining tables, high top tables, and bar seating. The outdoor Beer Garden has picnic tables and high top tables for enjoying meals and beverages al fresco. Highly recommend stopping by for a great social outing inside a working brewery.
