Little Brown Jug — Restaurant in Winnipeg

Getting to learn history via beer is something I would want more of I think. If you have followed their journey since 1919 beer you have been part of a great education in local history. Just like the great people of erstwhile Winnipeg who were steadfast, persevering and hardworking people, I feel Little Bown Jug has been that and added to their part of the exchange, in their words breathing life into an important building for the community.

My first local beer in Winnipeg was the 1919, a Farmery lager and a fort garry rouge. And I have stuck to the 1919 since then, the other two were not memorable enough. When they opened their brewery taproom it was a great addition for the area and over the years they have only gotten better with their space and community offering. Their recent developments in making a really fine patio and the various activities they carry out and promote with their space is such a warm welcoming atmosphere. From watching harry potter movies to learning dance drunk out to dj sets,art day-night themes and drag shows they have such a lot of things happening. There has never been a dull visit to the brewery ever.

It's run by a great team of people matching their fervour, vigour, vibrancy and hardwork and so the service has always been outgoing and lovely.

The 1919 is a must have beer it's one of the best belgian ale the city has to offer. One of the recent favorites for me has been the black lager and dubbel ale. And their new sparkling water offerings with brite water are really tasty to make low sugar cocktails and the sparkling water flavors are tasty.

You will visit them once because you want to check out a brewery and have a refreshing drink, you keep visiting them because the whole package they offer is...

The Little Brown Jug has some great beers. My friend and I got a variety four-pack and we enjoyed them lots.

1919: Standard Little Brown Jug that's been around for years. Goes down smooth with a distinct flavour note at the end. Black Lager: A good breakfast or late night beer. Heavier than the Generic Lager with more flavour. The notes of chocolate make it really tasty. Hazy IPA: An easy drinking IPA if there ever was one. It lacks the harshness of other IPAs making it perfect for someone who doesn't normally drink them. Pale Ale: Even though it's not called an IPA, it taste like more of what you would expect from an IPA than the Hazy did. Clear and crisp with that nice fruity/earthy flavour..

Out of all these beers, my favourite has to be the the Black Lager. There is just so much flavour but at the same time it doesn't way you down.

The venue at the LBJ is also very cozy. I would strongly recommend it as a nice hang out spot for you and your friends during the summer seasons but, they also have great inside seating during the winter. We had a great time dancing there during Nuit...

Little Brown Jug is located in the heart of the Exchange District in Winnipeg. The brewery and taproom are all in one large space, so it's neat to sit and have a beer, and look at all of the brewing equipment. When they are brewing, you get the added bonus of watching the brewers work (and a warm cereal smell). This brewery is in a perfect location to stop for a quick beer before a concert, Jets/Moose game, or other downtown event.

Little Brown Jug for quite some time, only served 1 beer (1919) an interesting and unique strategy for a craft brewery, but a successful one. They have since come out with some seasonals (1919 infused with fruit), an IPA, and last week, a Brown Ale. All of these beers have been great. However, if you're looking for taproom-exclusives or special beers, you may be disappointed, which is why I rated this...
