Canton Brew Works

Nice place. The beer is good, but not mind blowing. I would come back to try more beers though.

A hidden gem! The beers are fabulous! Cloudy Night IPA is one of the best black IPAs I’ve had. A must try is the Tamarind Diaz which is brewed with Indian red chilies. Don’t expect too much if you go. No servers and no food. You order beer and pay at the bar, and popcorn is self serve. Food can be brought in or delivered by a few local places.

Fantastic beer, and very nice staff.
I love coming here just to see what new beer they have and try it out. I haven’t had a bad one yet!

First visit! Nice little selection of beers. Had 9 on tap with a decent variety. An IPA, double IPA, tamarind chilie pale ale, pumpkin clove saison and a few others. Would be nice to have a few other options, but the ones I tried were all great. I went at Monday trivia so beers were only $ 5 which isn’t bad for a microbrew. Only snacks like chips and nuts available for food purchase, but there’s also free popcorn with plenty of seasoning choices. Feel free to bring any carry out food in with you. I’ll be back.

Really good and unique beers! I had one that had some heat to it thanks to some peppers and another (the current #4) that tasted like a chocolate tootsie roll pop, amazingly delicious!
If you’re not sure which one/​s you might like go for the sample flight, its a great deal, 6 4oz samples for $.
Only downside is there’s no waitstaff so you have to go to the bar to order, not a huge deal but kinda annoying.
Bonus: they have a popcorn machine there (that is also help yourself) with a variety of seasonings you can sprinkle on top.

Hello! Good time here at canton brew works! Delicious beer, good knowledgable and friendly service. I wish they advertised local food services… Love the doodles on the bar coaster please make the Alien hop drawing a shirt… I want one :)

Our first couple of times there, they weren’t busy and we sat at the bar. We had great conversations with the folks behind the bar, talking about the space, the beers on tap and those getting ready to tap. It was great! I also discovered my new summer lover, Bundaberg Ginger Beer (non-​alcoholic). Dang that’s good!
This last time we dropped in a busy Thursday evening. No space at the bar so we scored a low 2-​top table. Ken had to order from the end of the bar, and the bartenders were too busy for any extraneous chit chat. It happens, and we may have cared about it slightly if we hadn’t already chatted up the bartenders previously. We knew what we wanted — they let you order any number of sampler sized glasses all the way up to full sized glasses.
They have 6 – 7 of their own beers on tap at any time. Light through dark and everything in between (their latest Saison was tasty!) They also carry various sodas for those visiting DDs/​non-​drinkers. Small amount of bagged snacks on site, but you can have food delivered or bring in your own food.
As of 07÷02÷15 they are still only open Thursday through Sunday. Call ahead to see if that’s changed and to check hours.
They will fill other bars’ growlers and howlers. They have their own too if you need one.
Parking is sufficient, a lot shared by the rest of the strip mall. The bar is large with seating for at least 12. They have a low tables too (maybe 8 – 10). They look to be adding a TV and some sound acoustic tiles to keep the noise down.
Their beers are good enough to do a sample of all of them. I recommend bringing in Mediterranean or pizza from within the same strip mall or heading south to get Best China or Jersey Mike’s to go then settle in to enjoy your food, beer and companions.

Tasty, balanced, and distinctive beers. I really enjoyed the Belgian Saison.
Canton Brew Works does not offer active table service or hot food. It reminds me slightly of the Corner Brewery (Ypsi) back in the day. With no active bar service I wish the pint prices were more competitive.
Canton Brew Works lacks personality. However, that just may be growing pains.

Rarely have I felt as unwelcome as I did on my first (and likely only) visit to Canton Brew Works. There is no table service, which removes the possibility of pleasant interaction with the staff. It didn’t really matter, as none of the employees seemed as though they wanted us there. No greetings upon arrival, no checking-​in to talk about the beer, no salutations upon leaving. No wonder hardly anyone was there.
The sad thing is, the beer was really good. I had a 6-​sample flight, and all, especially the French saison, were excellent. We ordered in some dinner from The Pizza Station next door, and that was great. But no one at Canton Brew Works seemed to care about our experience.
Great beer, lousy service.

Solid Beer. Great Staff. Nice Atmosphere. A welcome addition to the Canton bar scene. Can’t wait for them to fill those journeyman distillery oak barrels.

Came to have a drink with my husband. They had about 6 beers on tap. I hope they get some lager’s.
My husband had the Belgian Saison and said it was pretty good.
I had the Shakedown Pale Ale. It was a little bitter, but good.
Other the beer they offer coffee and soda’s.
The bar is on the smaller side, but they had stools at the table and several tables in the seating area.
They don’t have food, but have menu’s of restaurants in the area that will deliver.
I would come back, again!

The saison and stout are definite winners. Looking forward to trying more soon. Keep up the good work.
