Lewes Brewing Company

As much as I enjoyed the beers here, I want to first comment about the facility. Whoever designed this place did an excellent job. Overall, the look is fresh and modern while maintaining a classy, rugged look. The choice of colors and building materials complements the appeal and cozy ambiance it provides. There's a wide range of places to sit, each with its own unique character. Excellent views from the back of the building and garage doors pulled up on two sides to enjoy the weather with uninterrupted views. Even the bathrooms are attractive!

They have many bike racks and clearly are looking to draw in the folks riding on the bike trail that literally passes beside the building. I've seen some reviews speak about inadequate parking. While it's true they only have about 12 spots on site, there is plenty of parking available on the road. If you feel like a short stroll, then the Lewes library/bicycle lots are always a possibility.

As for the beers, I tried eight of those offered on the day I was there including a sour, 2 hazy, a lager, a wheat and a stout. I thought all were well balanced and flavorful.

A food truck was parked there offering cheese steaks and other fare.

The staff was very friendly and inviting. I will definitely be bringing my friends here to enjoy all Lewes Brewing Company has to offer!

Beers were incredibly disappointing. In today's market of big hoppy IPAs I would have started there with my first public batches instead of putting out 3 meh IPAs that tasted progressively more watered down. Additionally, charging $7 for a 3.5% stout is a travesty.

Available parking is terrible and nearly non-existent, so bike there if you plan to go during the day.

Staff was friendly

Great atmosphere, nice variety of beer. They have hit the ground running. Plenty of outdoor seating and friendly staff.
