Small little place with great food and beer. Has an outdoor patio that we ate on. I got the Reuben that was made with smoked pastrami and it was super good.

Nice new brewery with a dozen beers on tap. I prefer Imperial Stouts but they didn't have any on tap today. The reviews show me that they do sometimes. I had their Whiskey Stout. As they stated, it is a dry Irish Stout similar to Guinness. I didn't sense much flavor impact from the whiskey barrel chips. My wife had the Bourbon Brown Ale. I thought it had more flavor, but I prefer milk stouts over dry stouts so it may just be my preference talking. We shared rhe 3 meat BBQ plate from the food truck out front. The BBQ had a good smoke ring and flavor. We got brisket, pork and ribs. They were all good, but the pork was a bit fatty. The pinto beans were just so-so. The potato salad was good.

First things first - BEST Dark Beer in the Hill Country. I had the Irish Stout. Super smooth & they make it right here. Had the BBQ chicken stuffed potatoe - Superb. The chicken on the potato wasn’t the typical “dry” breast strips. They mixed in plenty of dark meat it was moist, tender and tasted like it was roasted. About 1/4 a chicken worth!

Right down the road from exotic overnight stay zoo! Great food and atmosphere, good drinks and if you’re a Tech fan you’ll love it more than the average Joe! It’s a must stop in Johnson city.

We brought the kids to Johnson City for Labor Day weekend to do the exotic zoo, science museum, and local arcade. We went to Reck 'Em brewery on our last day, and it was one of our favorite places all weekend. The hospitable owner and staff, kid friendly atmosphere, the good music, the delicious craft beer, and the mouth watering BBQ make this place special. If you're in Johnson City, you have to try it!

LOVE this place, the vibe, the owners, the food and the beer. I’m a wino however when I’m Rome, drink their craft beer! (Or something like that). The turkey sandwich was amahhhzing! Local meat and freshest marble bread! We had the queso with salsa fresco that was delish too. Ask for small samples of the beer made on site. You’ll be more confused but hey, stay and drink all the ones you like.

June 2023 update: Tim continues to brew up fantastic beers. Wish we were closer. WOW!!! From the first sip I knew we'd stumbled on to something special. I started with the double IPA, as usual and it is phenomenal. The Red is ridiculously fantastic too. Wished we had more time, but we'll definitely be back.

We all know the beers are first class- with a great variety. But let’s talk about this sandwich… Here is the reason to drive to Johnson City from San Antonio.

Fantastic beer! Awesome seltzer. Super fun atmosphere. We LOVED playing miniature shuffle board. And the bartender wasn't hard to look at!!

This unassuming little bar gave me the best baked potato my husband and I have ever had. We ordered the Berzerker Ultimate Potato, and it's massive! We regret ordering a salad as well, because we both threw in the towel, but felt immensely sad that we couldn't finish the rest. They piled on the meat, queso, then drenched it in butter. Yummm!

Great little spot! We had lunch. I had the brisket tacos and Super Sonic Lime-Ade. It was very good. Ask for salsa on the side.

So my brother and I are from Houston, and we had come out to our friends ranch to help take care of some work on the land. We didn’t have anything ready for dinner, so we came into town and found our planned spot was closed, we checked out this fantastic establishment. Let’s just say, it turned into a religious experience. The home brews were fantastic, but the food…was magical. A small simple menu, but the offerings were of a unique joy in the delights to the pallet. The brisket and pulled pork were ultra moist, lovely smoky flavored with simple tastes that made for a magical moment. The cornbread is something of what dreams are made of. Perfect, moist, fluffy, …omg just pure joy. Do yourself a favor and make a trip to this wonderful hole in the wall. You’ll leave with a smile and a full belly. With dreams of delectable delights to tease. Maybe even some new friends to boot!

Good customer service, clientele and atmosphere! Family business! We grabbed the BAMF & blonde beers! Loved the indoor and outdoor seating options. Loved the decor also. Bartenders were wonderful & kind.

Two words: brisket. Nachos. New favorite stop on the way to the Burg! Service was great and the atmosphere is friendly. Food & drinks are A+++. Can’t wait to bring my husband back!

If you go, get the bbq loaded potato! I order this often at various bbq joints in Texas but this one takes the cake. Super tender brisket and the potato was obviously cooked in heaven. It was so tender it was almost a mashed potato. Awesome beer on top of all that! Go. Go NOW! Sorry about the photo. I devoured half of it before I thought to take a picture.

I’ve been there twice now, tacos the first time and nachos the second time. Both were top notch, like very good. Met the owners and they are awesome too. Today they had all 12taps flowing. Wide selection from IPA’s to seltzer’s. I had both of their IPAs tonight and they were on point.

Right down the road from exotic overnight stay zoo! Great food and atmosphere, good drinks and if you’re a Tech fan you’ll love it more than the average Joe! It’s a must stop in Johnson city.

I’ve been through Johnson City so much and am just now coming here. The food was excellent!! The brisket tacos were SO FAT and tasty. My Husband had the Frito Pie with brisket. We also had the jalepeno popper queso with the salsa and some jalapeno crema on the side. Idk what it was but it was DAMN good! Beer was great! Atmosphere felt like a home town bar and it’s good people and good vibes. The owner was there slinging beers and has the best personality! Stop by here if you can! I promise you won’t regret it!

Sampled 2 beers that were fantastic, Recommend the Saisson and Bourbon Brown. Burger good/average and Berserker stuffed potato was as big as my head and awesome. Brisket on potato shinned through and I'd get a Brisket meal next time. Tim served us and was super friendly and knowledgeable about the food and area. I'm shocked thus place wasn't packed but it is a small quirky bar. I loved it!

This is a pretty good brewery. The beers are Southern English style, similar to Lazarus brewery, in that they are very malt focused. The accomodations are very basic and become easily cramped. Prices are fair. They serve real barbecue, although I did not have any, it appeared tasty. This establishment is popular with locals.
