Mash & Hops

Love this place! Great hospitality, good recommendations, good background music, great beer, perfect atmosphere for a craft beer!

Couldn’t pass up writing a review about this place. Truely nothing else like it in Cleveland, and a great little space. The owner Rob, a beer lover like me, keeps about 13 rotating taps that change any time a keg kicks. Truly spending for everyone — an interesting little tidbit is that they were mainly a growler place but have a special permit that allows 8 oz pours — no pints! Very memorable for a beer lover! Rob also has 6 packs and mox and match singles for sale — saw all kinds of neat singles, surprised to see Del’s by Naragansette in the single section.
Over all my favorite for the day was the Down South Southern Pale Ale from Olé Shed. No food — just pretzels and thing to snack on — but I believe you can bring in your own.
1 TV if you’re needing to see the game of the moment and a nice mixture of Dave Matthews, Counting Crows-​ish, selections playing. Board and card games and a foozeball table for your entertainment are also available.
I will no doubt visit this place anytime I’m in the Cleveland TN/​Greater Chattanooga area!

Found Mash and Hops through a promo in the mail. I enjoyed the owners and guests alike but I did encounter one tiny problem. Just because it says coffee milk stout doesn’t mean it’s good for breakfast. Well, it is good for breakfast if you’re planning on skipping work that day… Stout it is with a wonderful flavor and a good head when correctly poured.

Very welcoming and helpful staff. Nice selection of regional beers. Happy to have in Cleveland

Excellent atmosphere. All the people are happy and why shouldn’t I be when they’re surrounded by all of life’s favorite things. And by that I mean a multitude of different beers. Serving growlers and now also by the half pint its just a wonderful experience all around. And the free samples are still available for the many varieties from small brewers around the USA, plus Guinesss stout.

I’m not from Cleveland, but I’m told that a place like Mash & Hops is highly unusual in the area — that some local evangelicals & teetotalers aren’t pleased about having a new beer-​centric joint in town. As an out-​of-​towner, though, I found this place to be perfectly charming, the sort you find in quirky small towns or booming big cities.
Mash & Hops sells, duh, beer. You can buy a 32oz or 64oz growler & continue to bring it back to M&H to be refilled with whichever on-​tap beer you please. While they don’t (yet) serve pints due to local ordinances, the owners told us they’re working on that & hope to be able to soon/​eventually. For now, you can sample up to four of their on-​tap beers; they swap them out each month.
Beers range from stuff you’ve heard of, like Guinness & Abita, to craft beers you’re probably less familiar with — including some brewed right in Tennessee, like Yazoo. Don’t see anything you like on tap, or just want more to choose from? M&H also has a large selection of bottled beers in four-​packs & six-​packs.
The place has an open, fun, welcoming vibe, & the owners are incredibly friendly. They love to talk about beer, & it’s clear that they’re very knowledgeable about it. Stop on it to find your new favorite beverage & support a great new local business!
