Scottsdale Beer Company

Best place Ever! Food is great, beer is great, staff is great!
Something for everyone.
They get involved with the community with their pour it forward motto.
We try to get there once a week to see what’s new and visit.

You really are going to want to get here to try their new beer «Chef Collaboration Bay leaf and juniper berry pilzner» As always great service, awesome food and beers that are really worth taking home!

Great location and nice atmosphere. Attentive staff and good beer specials including Brewers choice. Awesome wings that are smoked, baked and grilled.

Yum!!! Been meaning to check this place out for months, so glad I finally did! Excellent server, friendly and knowledge about menu and questions we had. I had the vegan burger, delicious homemade patty and very generous size. My friend had chicken tenders which she said were great.
Nice patio which we’re excited to bring our dog to soon!

4 stars based on service, drinks, and appetizers only…
Met a couple of girlfriends there for Happy Hour yesterday. Cute, comfortable, not too noisy.
Shared Stuffed Tater Tots, Fried Pickles, Street Tacos, and Mac n Cheese. All were yummy!
The fried pickles were a little different than I’m used to, they were very finely cut chips that were lightly battered and fried. Not ‘different’ in a bad way, good different. I usually prefer the spears because of the higher pickle-​to-​fried ratio, these were quite yummy!
Beers available — the list isn’t huge but since everything on the list was made there I’m going to say it’s a good sized list. I asked our waitress about the non hoppier beers and she did a great job of helping us choose and brought samples sips. Those little samples came in snifter glasses, it was awesome because you could REALLY smell the beer before you took a sip!
Might have to go back for actual food and take the hubs!!!

Management is in left field! Clueless and hired one very disrespectful bartender! Watch out for her — she may do you a favor and get you a drink!
Don’t waste your time

My husband and I came here after work on a Friday night. We came during Happy Hour, which runs 3−7pm, and the place was packed. Fortunately, we were able to grab a booth without much of a wait. Our waiter was quick to bring water and discuss the menu. During HH, several appetizers are discounted, as well as beer/​wine/​well drinks. I ordered a gin and tonic and my husband ordered a rum and ginger beer. For well drinks, they were good. For our meal, we ordered three appetizers. We ordered the fried pickles, the fried green tomatoes, and the smothered fries. The fried pickles were really good! They were thin like chips and came with a cucumber ranch sauce. I would order these again. The fried green tomatoes were just okay. They were good but the breading was very thick and kept falling off the delicate tomato. If they changed the breading, using the breading they used on the fried pickles, then I’d order again. The pimento cheese sauce that came with the tomatoes was really good and I even dipped some of the fried pickles in it. The smothered fries where basically poutine. These were delicious. The gravy was thick with and nicely covered the fries. The cheese curds on top slowly melted into the gravy as we devoured the dish. No meat in the gravy but you could order sausage in addition. For dessert, we ordered the milk and cookies. YUM! The milk part was an adult milkshake — some coffee liquor in vanilla ice cream. I loved it and would order another one of these. The cookies were warm but nothing special. Overall, it was a fun HH spot and I’d come here again.

I am home now (in Denver) and finally writing this review from last week. Not going to lie, I am welling up with tears because I miss this place! There are MANY new breweries in the Scottsdale area, so this place has some stiff competition right out of the gate. Naturally, in order to make an informed assessment, my husband and I tried as many as we could in a five-​day trip. (Intentionally, leaving some for next time). Let me just say, the Scottsdale Beer Company did NOT disappoint. We did not have a wait the first time, and stuck just to beer. We of course sampled 8 — with two being the hands down favorites — the Big Mouth Blonde and the Easy Rye’d Pale Ale. GoodNESS this place does a fine beer! The selection is vast, so you’ll be hard pressed not to find something that appeals to your tastebuds. Second visit — beers (shocking, I know) and dinner. We were apparently a bit indecisive (and hungry) because we started with three appetizers: Pub Pretzels (beer cheese sauce so delicious I wanted to bring it home and put it on everything from pretzels to my toothbrush); roasted peanuts (raise an eyebrow to the «cajun spice, dried fruit, bacon — then ask yourself how you can possibly get handfuls into your mouth faster); and the overall crowd pleaser — Fried Brussel Sprouts. Now let me tell you, I KNOW my sprouts! I’ve tried everything from maple-​syrup to brown-​sugar-​balsamic, to butter-​lemon-​garlic, to who knows what? These little bundles of magic however, are unprecedented, with roasted peanuts, bacon (duh) and a light and refreshing honey-​mustard sauce that literally left us wanting to drag our fingers through to clean the serving dish in a way that would have saved the dishwasher time and energy! Pure heaven, and HOT! Woohoo — HOT!
On to dinner — we split the Andouille Sausages with grits and shrimp gravy. The sausage was really delicious — although be prepared for a more-​than-​usual «smokey» taste. The grits and gravy (that had large pieces of shrimp) were just plain to die for. Again, high-​five us for winning the clean-​plate-​contest on this one! On our other visit, we had the house-​made chips — oh holy crap these things are amazing! PERFECTLY sliced and fried, and some seasoning that smacks of perfect salt-​lemon-​butter-​heaven-​delightfulness that is remarkable! I don’t know exactly what it is, and quite frankly, don’t care! We had some leftover, and I kid you not, and brought them home (and I mean all the way home to Denver, carefully packaged and packed in my suitcase).
The service was outstanding; in fact we were quoted a time that was longer than the actual wait when we arrived. Love that! The establishment is well kept up, and clean. Good for kids. We will definitely be back, and next time, hope to enjoy the welcoming patio!

They have evolved, and to some extent improved. There are more beer choices (15 actually), and the ones I sampled were above average. But the food is still mundane and just ok. I had two kinds of tacos and my wife the veggie burger. Both were satisfactory, but at least one of us will order something else next time. And it is still like eating in a cave.

So. much. food. We love this place.
For dinner, lunch, brunch — this place has it all. I will note, the brunch menu is limited, but they do have mimosas and if you have read my reviews, I love me some mimosas.
We love the service and the food here, great people, great mellow atmosphere. (we are clutzy people and have knocked many a thing off a high table while talking with our hands)
We’ve had a ton off the menu, latest was the mac n cheese, veggie burger, boyf had the meatloaf, warm pub pretzels, house chips.
The mac n cheese is HUGE, and great for left overs, and overs and overs. Also the veggie burger is amazing and made in house. The homemade chips are divine.
Great for date night and also— TACO MONDAYS

I love the Chix Sammie-​sweet, spicy and juicy! I have ordered it with both the side salad and the homemade chips! The Chips are the bomb-​crispy and fresh! Good deals at their extended Happy Hours.

Great place! Been twice now. Had the beet salad both times. Soooo good! Had the fried pickles too. They were great. Really thin with a light batter. Different than any other fried pickles I’ve had. Service was great both times. Definitely recommend!

Decent selection of beer here, but I’m a very big fan of the food. You get huge portions, and it tastes great.
Definitely a fan of their more edgy dishes. For once, their poutine is one of the most authentic I’ve had from the brown gravy to the cheese curds. The giant tater tots are a perfect marriage between loaded potato skins and tots. The house jerky is a great peppery bite. And the triple cooked wings maintain a great smoky flavor — though I do warn against chef’s whim — sometimes that whim means no sauce at all!
In terms of the entrees, I appreciate them all. The burnt ends fried rice was a decent cross between Asian and southern cooking right down the middle, and the mac and cheese is very generous with plenty of customization. If you come for brunch on the weekends, the donuts have a great sugary bite and the pancakes are very hearty (with bacon cooked in too!).
I’ve had Nitros, stouts, and porters here, but you’ll find plenty of IPAs and ales too. I was pretty happy with everything I got, and it’s a good range from local breweries to in house. Selection can change in as little as a week too, which I like.
I’ve been to similar joints like OHSO, Fate, and Four Peaks, but I definitely believe SBC is leading the pack in terms of food. No doubt I’ll be back.

I can’t say enough about this place and the people who work here, starting with the owners, Doug and Tom, who always come out and check in with every table to see if everything is okay. Terry, one of the bartenders, did a great job to make sure that my mother had a great experience while she is in town.
I am also convinced the brewer, Brad, adds hops and dreams to create the magical beer served here. Couple that with melt in your mouth tacos offered on the wonderful TACO MONDAY there is no better way to start your week than at SBC!

I don’t drink beer, but I had been wanting to take my friend who loves beer to try this place out with me! We both agreed that it was a good choice and we were glad we checked it out.
We came at like 2:30 on a Friday and there were not too many people there. We were seated quickly and I was happy to see some great veggie options on the menu for me! My friend was happy to see lots of meat options for him. And it was cool because we were seated right by the little brewery, and there are windows so we could look in. My friend ordered two beers, and he really enjoyed them. I usually don’t like beer, but I had a sip and thought it tasted pretty good!
For food I ordered a quinoa burger, had fries as my side. I’d honestly say it’s on my top 5 list of veggie burgers in the area. and I’ve had a lot! The flavor was good, very fresh, I especially liked the pickled veggies on top of it. My friend got a burger and he was very excited it came with cheese curds. He was disappointed when he got it and realized the cheese curds were melted on top, not on the side or fried. But otherwise he said it was a good burger. Prices are reasonable too. My only complaint was that the service got really slow towards the end, like took forever for us to get out check and then pay. Spent a long time there! But we enjoyed it, I’d come back for sure.

This was a really cool place — met some friends there for lunch.
Lots of TVs, lots of beers on tap.
Ordered the bbison burger and got the mac-​n-​cheese as a side — really nice!
Need to go back for a refresher!

So my fiancé doesn’t drink and I very rarely drink beer (card-​carrying member of the wino club here), so while we’ve thrown around the idea of heading to SBC for dinner for a while now, we just never got around to it.
Well, 2016 has started off as a special sort of dumpster fire and on Saturday we found ourselves NEEDING to get out of the house after being cooped up in there with about 20 fans blowing on our carpet/​baseboards to counteract our water heater flooding all over the place. That’s neither here nor there (and I’m sure I’ll write some strongly worded Unilocal regarding a few contractors…) and we found ourselves STARVING this past Saturday evening. It’s just down the street, so why not? We headed down and snagged a table on the twinkle-​light-​adorned patio and perused the menu.
One thing I’m apt to order about 99% of the time if it’s on any menu is any sort of soft pretzels/​cheese/​mustard situation. We decided on those as an app and they arrived to our table HOT. Awesome! The beer cheese had a very tasty and nuanced beer undertone, and the mustard was grainy and perfectly spicy.
I decided to keep my meal in the theme of health and went for a «small» (generous for most non-​giants) portion of mac and cheese and a side salad. The mac was a cheesy mess topped with toasty Panko. It was comfort food times a million. My side salad came with, honestly? One of the best Italian dressings I’ve ever had. I’m stupidly picky about salad dressing and don’t love most, but this was herby and dreamy. Fiancé went with their special of BBQ chicken drumsticks, potato salad (the mustardy kind), baked beans and a buttermilk roll. He wasn’t expecting to find some of the best BBQ chicken he’d ever had at Scottsdale Beer Company, but he did and the few bites I snagged were life-​affirming. And the buttermilk roll? Get out of here. This is unfortunately a special and not on their regular menu, but if you see this dish on their specials list… GET IT.
I did decide to peruse their drink menu and got some sort of seasonal pomegranate cider. This was the perfect balance of tart (not too sweet at all!) and refreshing. All in all, SBC has shot itself up to one of our favorite spots in just one trip. Bravo!

Good food. Cool ambiance. Cranky service. The wings were awesome ~ smoky & flavorful! My burger had a yummy mesquite smokiness to it, too. Brussels sprouts were too mustard-​y for my liking. My husband said his meatloaf was one of the best he’s ever had — he couldn’t stop eating it. Homemade chips were excellent — light, crispy, salty & slightly tangy.
Hip, fun atmosphere with lots of TVs for sports watchin’. I thought it was weird that the shiny beer brewing vats were surrounded by sloppy plastic buckets and hoses, though.
Our waitress seemed annoyed when I asked her opinion about different dishes and was less than attentive. She got considerably nicer after the check was delivered and we were considering her tip. It’s just one person, though, so I’m hoping she’s an anomaly. We will be back for the tasty chow, though!

Good food, good service and kid friendly even though it’s a beer company! Might deserve 5 stars but I’ll need to actually order a beer before doing that.
I was there at lunch time and had heard they have Wikki Stix! My niece and nephew love those. I saw they have Kraft mac n cheese but i went with the chef made mac and glad I did cause it was great! And so was the warm peach cobbler with ice cream.
Overall I loved the openness of the place, seeing the brewery is cool, wait staff superb. There’s a lot of great things on the menu I want to try. Oh yes, we’ll be back Scottsdale Beer Company! You got something great going!

Now I know why this place is packed and even on a Wednesday. This place is huge. The server was very pleasant and attentive. I had the Bison Burger with a fried egg and my wife had the Walleye fish and chips.
The fish and chips was amazing. I’ve heard a lot about this fish and it works just as good as the Cod. The fish was huge, take a look at my picture of it. My hamburger came on a beautiful bun. When I picked it up to take a bite, the egg exploded and the bun kept sliding off the meat. It was a bit messy.
The French fries were cooked perfectly, nice crunch and not limp like other restaurants.
We also had the Wide Mouth Blonde Alert which was very good. Don’t forget happy hour from 3 – 7, Mon-​Fri. A good time to try their own Beef Jerky which is a little spicy.
We will definitely return.
