Had the pleasure of spending the evening here last night. Walking down the path to the front door I was already excited. The blacktop path leads you into a tree covered canopy bordering a flowing creek. This leads you to their outdoor seating area. More on this later. As you walk into the actual pub you cross a beautiful wooden bridge covered by the farmhouse field stone architechture. The huge castle like wooden door opens to a typical pub. Modestly sized bar with stools and a handful of tables. Flat screens in the corners a dart board in back. Brewing equipment can be seen which every brew pub seems to put on display.

The inside is an after thought in my book. In Wisconsin we appreciate outdoor drinking more than anything else that comes with warm days. The beer garden is a picturesque setting with the tables nestled next to the afformentioned creek. Trees almost completely cover the garden giving a camping/forest vibe. On a warm almost breezeless evening the sound and smell of freah flowing water while drinking beer is heaven.

I grabbed a seat with my buddy at a table that also sat the owner/head brewer Steve. Talk about an interesting evening. Downing some very enjoyable beers while asking Steve every beer related question that popped into my head.

The servers were friendly and accomadating. I belive I tried about five different offerings with not a clunker in the bunch.

Overall this will be a place I frequent often during the summer. A short 30 minute drive from my house is so worth it.

A special thanks goes to BeerFMAndy for inviting me out here and introducing me to the fine folks at Silver Creek.
