Great brew. Stopped by on a Saturday. $10 gets you six 1/2 pints and a pint glass and a history tour of the brewery. Go on a nice day so you can enjoy the beer gardens. They had live music the day we were there. Get there easily. Highly recommend this if you are looking to sample some beers.

Line begins forming about 5. for $10 you get a pint glass and 5 taste tickets or you can free taste in a little... More

We went with friends for the beer tasting and tour. The place was packed and the line was out the door but it moved fast. We spent the $10 for a glass and six drink tickets. Great value for the money and the beer is good! There wasn't any food available (which would have been nice).

Spent a lovely spring evening at the Sweetwater Brewery and it was fun and informative. The tour was informative, but not overwhelming. Their choices of beers offered something for every beer drinker's taste. They had a band set up on the patio, which provided great entertainment for a few hours.

Found the tour marginally interesting, but the beer, live band and outdoor patio were fantastic. Tremendous value for $10. You actually get too much beer for most folks, so you might want to take a cab.

From 5:30 to 7:30, they offer samples of their beer and tour. It was so awesome! Between the sun and beer - it is a must visit!

My hubby loves Sweetwater beer, so I took him here for his birthday. When we arrived, there wasn't a line, but inside was SUPER crowded and super loud. It is a very "trendy" spot with kind of a frat party feel. The tour was okay. The machines were pretty loud and we could only hear about half of what the... More

Me and my husband visited on our anniversary, got some great glasses to commemorate the trip, plenty of great ale to try and nice people to talk to. My husband went on the tour it was short but he said it was ok. Be advised many people tend to show up.
