Reviews for Yoerg Brewing Company in St Paul, MN
Great little brewery and pub! Take the narrow winding stairs up to find a very cozy seating area with soft lighting perfect for... a small event or for a more comfortable spot for a conversation. The pretzels are huge and delicious. Tom, one of the owners,is big on the history of the brewery. Chat him up for some good knowledge on the beers on hand! Read more
While on my way to Leo's Chow Mein. I pass this really cool looking bar called Yoerg Brewing Company. They are a self described... European Beer Bar. They have mainly Wurst sausage and a Yoerg Sandwich along with pizza. The place is the perfect spot to take adate before the Wild game. They proudly serve many European beers and brew their own on site. I have been back two more times asI learn their menu. Their only sandwich (The Yoerg) was very good. Very unique atmosphere. It is well worth the trip alone. Read more
This is a unique brewery unlike anything you'll find in the twin cities metro area. First, this brewery is chalk full of... history. While this location is not the original brewery (which burnt down in the 50s), the building is about 110 years old, andis decorated in a way that does justice to the historic nature of the building. Second, the brewery really is more known forits imported European beer, including about ten that are on tap. The brewery does offer three of its own brews, which again, arehistoric in nature. Third, the bartender is friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about the beers offered. Many of the beersare special releases and may be difficult, if not nearly impossible, to find in the USA. Prices are a touch on the high side,but after paying the tab, you'll still feel like you received decent value. The brewery does offer food, which is nice. Thereare multiple options (more than most breweries). The brewery offers flights (4 ounce pours). Only the beers on tap areeligible, and due to the extensive beer menu, you will assuredly find some beers you wish you could taste instead of buying apricy bottle. There really are only three downsides to this brewery. First, the parking isn't great (on street parking only).Second, the Yoerg beer really isn't that good. Having only three beers is limiting, and the styles are not creative. Instead,they are definitely outdated (think beer designed for 150 years ago). Third, they charge two and a half percent credit card fee(with a tiny note on one page of the menu, but otherwise without disclosure until you receive your bill). I understand the costof doing business is going up, but I really find this in bad taste as most people are paying by credit cards anyways. Read more
The best brewery in the town! I like the how they have maintained the authenticity of the brewery itself and the informative... menu. Besides the tasty German beers they got their own house beers that are brewed very well to the taste buds. I loved thefood, OMG!! The taste was simple and rich. I regret exploring this early, but glad I have had experienced. Read more
This is the place to go if you are looking for rare beers especially Belgian and other European styles. I was impressed that... they even had the matching glassware to go along with the beer you order. They have great food menu to go along with thedelicious beers, ciders, and wines. The bartenders are very knowledgeable about the drinks they are serving. Read more
Very fun brewer. They have so many imported beers and wine. Many are on tap. Plus they have different sausages and pretzels to... try. Different other dishes like pickled eggs or pies with alcohol are on the menu as well. I like to get a flight of beers withlighter to darker and a dessert beer at the end. I've been going there since the new opening and love being a patron. I'll becoming back much more to check out the new beers and foods. When you're in talk to the bartender, he's very knowledgeable ofbeers, foods, and places like Belgium. Read more
Yoerg brewing is the kind of place that you can settle into a chair and become a regular quickly! It is a warm and cozy Brewery.... Tom, the owner, is just the most amazing person. He travels throughout Europe to select the beers that are on the menu, and isalso quite a wine connoisseur. On a slower night, get him talking about beer or wine, and you will have the most amazingexperience with his stories. I have quickly fallen in love with this wonderful Saint Paul Brewery! I cannot recommend YoergBrewery any higher. Update: The bar/restaurant is now decorated for Christmas, and so romantic and fun! I was just there twonights ago, and Tom is slowly rolling out the dark beers from Europe (fitting for cold nights in St. Paul!). I had a UkrainianBaltic Porter that just was.... unbelievable. So perfect for a cold and snowy night. I love the Yoergs atmosphere and vibe! Read more
This place is a keeper for the generations. It?s on the bluff overlooking downtown St. Paul, Minnesota. The brewery is in the... back room. The menu consists of German food and other offerings from that culture. Came in on a Sunday afternoon to enjoy somelocal color and boy did I get it. This may be one of my new out-of-the-way hangouts. They open at noon every day and close at 9PM. Read more
