Brewtus Brewing

Beer Snob's Rating: 8

A great addition to the downtown Sharon, PA renaissance.  Brewtus Brewing is a wonderful old building filled with character, yet has been renovated into a very clean and classy restaurant brew pub.  Plenty of free parking right out back.

Staff is very attentive and pleasant.









The night we were here the Vindys performed, a rock jazz fusion band from Youngstown.  The upstairs area is a great place to see local bands with really good sound quality.

Also, check out the really neat stained glass artwork on the second floor - a great asset.

Atmosphere: 4/5 - Cool bar with a cozy dining area downstairs and expansive stage with plenty of room to dance upstairs.  Great old building right in downtown Sharon, PA

Menu: Great selection and very creative appetizers, sandwiches, wraps and Paninis. Yum!  I want to try them all.



Entertainment: Live music on weekends, nice stage on the second floor.

Other Amenities: Fun little patio outback.  Really nice upstairs stage room and banquet center.

Promotional: None that we noticed.

What kind of other alcohol do they serve? Just the craft beer and and some local wines. (Including many from the excellent Volant Winery)

Creativity of Brew Master: Nothing too crazy

How many of your own beers on tap? There were 8 today and unfortunately two of them were pumpkin spice flavored.  I have been here before and there was a much greater selection.

The Beers We Tried

Swanky T.

Belgian Tripel

10% ABV
33 IBU
Our take: Smooth with a rich malty flavor, a hint of a mild roast.  Drinkable, slightly too sweet, a little cloudy (because of the high malt content), but needed to wash it down with another Artificial Intelligence IPA.

Our rating: 7/10

Artificial Intelligence

American IPA

ABV: 7.6%


IBU: 69


Flavor: Citrus and pine balanced by a strong malt backbone.


Our take: Nice powerful hoppy IPA with a fine balance of malt. Not super citrusy or exotic in the hop selection.  No surprises, just what you would expect for an American style IPA.

Our rating: 8/10

 

Overall suggested beer:

Artificial Intelligence

Will we go back? We give it a 3

1 - been there done that
2 - sure, if someone else is buying
3 - yes, if I'm in the neighborhood
4 - hell yes!
