ABC Brewing and Wood-Fired Pizza Battle Lake — Restaurant in Battle Lake

Went here with the family during CoVid so cant comment on service as it was all through windows - normal, no big deal. However we did get beers and we did get pizzas. We will start with the food which was pretty good. Pizzas are a bit expensive e for what you get considering that as with traditional italian style the crust is ridiculously disproportionate from the pizza. However the toppings were good and the balsamic on the veggie was amazing. They should offer a cup of dipping sauce for the crust for an extra buck and that would have made them more money and me happier. We had the Veggie, Garlic Cheese, pepperoni and sausage, Pepperoni and the special which was a play on Tiki Masala. When ordering, we were told it was a "Chicken Marsala" pizza which definitely cause some confusion but the curry sauce was light and good and overall good pizzas.

The beer: we had a flight and tried the Triple A IPA, the Session, the Cream Ale and the Summer Grapefruit one... not one was especially good although the cream ale with blueberry notes was the best of all. The session was more a Saison than anything and we felt the IPA was rough - too heavy on the start and smooth finish with not a very good aftertaste on the palette. At the end I tried a snifter of the Porter which turned out to be the best beer of all of them, but is not sweet as a porter should be and drinks more like a stout with notes of coffee.

At the end, it turned out that there was a billing issue whereas 2 pizzas and an extra beer got added onto my tab. Apparently the owners name is also Justin, and he had told a different client to put their food and drinks on his tab... which then they put onto mine. Understandable mistake and they took care of it so not a deal breaker - just a bit frustrating.

Overall okay experience, good food, mediocre beers. Would go again maybe, depends on if changes made to both the beers and the...

When my family rolled into town from a long day on the road we weren't sure where to go to eat. All we knew was that we wanted to eat quickly. We were told ABC Brewing was able to prepare pizza quickly, But I had no idea how quickly! I think we spent more time debating what kind of pizza to get then driving down to pick it up. The estimate was 20 minutes, we were there in 10. It was ready before we arrived.

Of course, since there was an amazing selection of local brews, we were obligated to sit and sip a pint before we could go anywhere. There was a flip card deck at every table that told the stories behind each individual beer. It was a lot of fun to read all of the local lore while we were enjoying the flavors that had inspired them.

The pizza was absolutely spectacular. When I first opened the box, I wondered if it was going to be enough, but then I found out how very filling the pizza was. There was plenty of cheese and generous toppings. Everything was flavored to perfection, and the crust was...

Stopped here on a snowy day after a walk around the lake. Both the waitress and the pizza chef were extremly welcoming and hospitable. We had a couple of flights and really enjoyed the wide range of different brews. We also had two fantastic pizzas - gernerously topped with lots of cheese and such. The crust was superb, just perfect. The chef served us a free sample of a dessert they are currently working on... kind of a bread pudding with some leftover pizza crust dough, with blueberries and a custard?-lemon sauce. It was absolutly amazing. So extremely comforting for the cold weather outside and extra props for repurposing pizza dough that you otherwise had to throw out. This needs to make the menu as soon as possible. ;) Thanks for an amazing evening that we'll...
