Arbeiter Brewing Company — Restaurant in Minneapolis

We’ve been waiting for this place to open since Harriet brewing closed. We were not disappointed. The space is large, and clean. There are two levels to allow for social distancing. The tables are properly spaced to encourage social distancing and masks are required when moving about. Overall the staff have taken care to provide a safe environment for patrons.

Based on a sign at check-in, reservations are encouraged. We did not have reservations and did not have a problem getting in right away. We visited on a Saturday around noon. I look forward to visiting when it’s patio season. All of the windows in this place our garage doors, so looking forward to warm weather. The outdoor patio has a fire pit. This place is a welcome addition to the neighborhood.

The beer assortment was decent, and the beers we tried were very good. The interior is aesthetically pleasing. We look forward to returning to try...

Being in the heart of the 2020 social justice protests, I think this brewery really captures the importance of how that event shaped our city's landscape.

The environment is very open minded, making protest graffiti a focal point, while reminding you that Arbeiter also happens to be top notch in giving you a premium craft beer experience. It is also dog friendly on the entire property, making your pooch part of its family with easeThe Black IPA and pomegranate seltzer prove an exceptional contrast, with 15 or so options largely between. Also, a Latin themed food menu is also available (with tax included in pricing, a small thing of which I make note when I see it) with delicious and affordable entrees between $10-15. The outside patio does precisely what it can with some parking lot space.

Overall a great spot that really nails the essence of South...

I was honestly very underwhelmed by the 4 different beers that I tried with my wife, which sucks because I was very excited to try this place.

The nitro (seen on the left) had an overly bitter flavor that reminds me of when the grain or hops are overboiled. My wife visibly winced from the bitterness when she swallowed it.

The seltzerish drink (second to the left) was nearly flavorless.

The guava infused beer somewhat matches the color, but lacks the flavor of actual guava.

Bee Sting (Vanilla cream honey ale) had an ok flavor starting out but left a yeasty aftertaste on your palate.

All in all, I was pretty disappointed and I do not feel that current reviews reflect the quality of beer...
