How we score

The editorial take

Grossen Bart Brewery runs up to 15 beers on draft at a time, with a lineup that moves from lagers and Kölsch to stouts, porters, sours, Belgian dubbels, and hoppy IPAs. The award-winning Perfect Pilsner and a 2022 Silver Medal Shackle Kölsch anchor the lager side, while a barrel-aged barley wine and a strong brown ale cover the heavier end. Cans and bottles are filled in-house for take-home purchase.

What should I order?: Start with the Perfect Pilsner, the award-winning crisp lager, or the Shackle Kölsch, a 2022 Silver Medal Denver International winner. For something richer, the Barrel Aged Barley Wine Cortes 1 Rye Vintage 2018 is a 12.7% ABV option, and the Gose dill pickle has been offered at $5 pints.
Who will enjoy this place?: Drinkers who want a broad, lager-forward tap list with occasional barrel-aged and strong-ale options will find plenty to work through. The in-house canning and bottling also suits anyone who wants to take beer home.
What should I expect to spend?: A $5 pint promotion has been advertised for the Gose dill pickle, giving one concrete price point on the draft list.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?: The breadth stands out: up to 15 drafts spanning lagers, Kölsch, steam beer, hazy IPA, strong brown ale, and a 12.7% ABV barrel-aged barley wine, plus an award-winning pilsner and a 2022 Silver Medal Kölsch. The brewery also cans and bottles its own beer for take-home purchase.
