    Make sure you WAIT for a tour with Mike. He is the best and the most fun tour guide I've ever had. Great experience. Also, the revolutionary beer flight was very good and only $6.

    The staff was very knowledgable and helpful with finding beers that I liked. The Philadelphia Pale Ale w/ grapefruit on the cask is my favorite. Try the Tavern Ale and Spruce!

    I really love the smell of malt around the brewery. Try the flights to understand the diversity of beer flavours. If you love bacon, go for Smoke 45 Malt Liquor, a liquid bacon!

    I just had a really great tour with Christian. He was super funny and very knowledgeable! The beer is absolutely amazing. The ESA and the Brawler are the ones to get.

    Many great beers to choose from and if you get there on the weekend when the food truck is there, their food is great also

    I'm pushing for legislation that would cut taxes for small breweries. The Small BREW Act would help small breweries like Yards Brewing by cutting the excise tax that small breweries pay. Read more

    The seasonal beers are really good, and their standards are solid staples. What I love most is how exceptionally nice and helpful the staff is.

    Love this place. Very laid back. They have a limited food menu; grilled cheese, bison chilly, tasty cakes. My favorite beer is the poor Richards, definately different. Great beer and people.

    Philly brewery Yards made a sudsy ale specially for the 2011 Philadelphia Science Festival: E=MC Beered. Don't miss the free weekend brewery tours and tasting room, or Tuesday night beer Quizzo.

    Great beer, sustainable operation too! If you don't know what to get, start with a flight of the ales of the revolution.

    One of my favorite breweries. I recommend the chili and bison sausages from the tasting room while you try some of their smaller batches of beer.

    Can get crowded but look for space in the corners of the room (or else plan to arrive early); they dedicate space for growler fills

    Right on the water front, enjoy the large tap room made from all recycled products. We mean everyone - the tables, chairs and couches. There is shuffleboard here!

    Probably the IPAs? I'm not a fan, but if you are there are plenty. If not, might as well find a place with more selection.

    Rotating food trucks are sometimes out front. Grab some grub from one and bring it inside. Then enjoy it with some fine beers and billiards!

    Frank the bartender is a major douch. A first class little man d-bag. But the beer here is great!
