10 brewery places in St. Louis we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in St. Louis | Brewery across every city.

Urban Chestnut Brewing Company (Grove) ★ 4.3

$$BreweryThe Grove

Urban Chestnut's Grove Bierhall pours German-leaning lagers and American ales in a 400-seat hall built in a 1920s warehouse, with Fordo's pizza on site.

TipThe Bierhall is huge and family-friendly; the Zwickel lager is the flagship pour. Pizza comes from Fordo's in the same space.

Urban Chestnut Brewing Company (Midtown) ★ 4.2

$$BreweryMidtown

Urban Chestnut's original Midtown brewery and biergarten pours its German and American lineup near Grand Center, the first home of a big local craft name.

TipThe biergarten is the draw in warm months. Tours of the brewing operation run on select days; check the calendar.

The Schlafly Tap Room ★ 4.2

$$BreweryDowntown West

Schlafly is St. Louis's original craft brewery, and its downtown Tap Room pours the full range in a brick brewpub that has anchored the scene since 1991.

TipThe pumpkin ale in autumn and the pale ale year-round are the calling cards. The brewpub kitchen does solid pub food.

4 Hands Brewing Co. ★ 4.2

$$BreweryLasalle Park

4 Hands brews a broad American range from IPAs to barrel-aged stouts at a large taproom near Soulard, one of the city's most widely distributed craft names.

TipThe taproom near the stadium fills on game days. City Wide is the easy-drinking flagship; ask about barrel-aged releases.

Side Project Brewing ★ 4.6

$$BreweryMaplewood

Side Project is the metro's most acclaimed craft brewery, specialising in barrel-aged sours and farmhouse ales that draw national beer pilgrims to Maplewood.

TipAllocations of the sought-after barrel-aged bottles go fast; check release schedules. The nearby Cellar is the tasting bar.

Rockwell Beer Company ★ 4.3

$$BreweryThe Grove

Rockwell's flagship near the Grove brews crisp lagers and saisons and pours them with tavern-style pizza, a well-regarded newer name in St. Louis beer.

TipThe tavern-style pizza pairs with the house lager. Rockwell also runs a seasonal beer garden in Francis Park.

Civil Life Brewing Co. ★ 4.2

$$BreweryTower Grove South

Civil Life brews sessionable English-style ales in Tower Grove South, a low-key brewery whose American Brown is a local classic. A neighbourhood beer garden.

TipThe American Brown is the order, ideally in the leafy beer garden. It is cash-friendly and unpretentious by design.

Narrow Gauge Brewing Company ★ 4.4

$$BreweryFlorissant

Narrow Gauge brews some of the region's most sought-after hazy IPAs in Florissant, a small operation that took silver at the 2025 Great American Beer Fest.

TipThe hazy and imperial IPAs are the reason to make the north-county drive. Can releases sell through quickly.

Six Mile Bridge Beer ★ 4.0

$$BreweryMaryland Heights

Ryan and Lindsay Sherring brew Belgian-inspired and American styles at this Maryland Heights taproom, a husband-and-wife operation growing since 2015.

TipThe taproom is family-friendly with rotating taps. A west-county stop worth pairing with nearby Creve Coeur Lake.

Schlafly Bottleworks ★ 4.1

$$BreweryMaplewood

Schlafly's Maplewood Bottleworks is the brand's larger production brewery and restaurant, with a beer garden, a Saturday farmers market and brewery tours.

TipThe patio and the seasonal farmers market on the lot make it a daytime destination. Tours run on weekends.
