Big Sandy Brews

Edit: We just visited after being away all winter and were kind of disappointed. The renovations are nice and add more space, but it seems that Joshua has moved on, and his recipes along with him.

The main thing we went for was the pink lemonade - we purchased 3 growers excitedly - but it seems this recipe has changed. It tastes more akin to powdered than something lovingly crafted by hand from real lemons.

The bartender working was nice, but didn't know much about the brews on tap.

All in all, still a cute place to grab a beer, but missing the personality we were drawn to on the first visit, and I probably won't be going back to drop $75 on growler fills again any time soon.

This place is awesome and I'm so happy to see it here in bruceton mills. Joshua is an extremely friendly person and super nice to talk to. His beer is also super tasty and his honesty is just as refreshing. They have growlers for a $3 deposit which is clutch! Also, don't sleep on the pink lemonade - it's incredible. We'll definitely be back!

Great selection - including non alcoholic, served in frozen mugs. Flights $7, free samples, ever changing menu. Next door there is Pizza you are welcome to bring over. No patio yet, in the works for next year. A few fruit flies, which are being addressed promptly.

Service: 5/5
Best bar tender in the county! She’s cute too!

Setting: 5/5
The building looks really cool from the outside. On the inside there’s some work to do, but this is a new small business, so I give ‘em props! The amount of work it takes to start a business is CRAZY! Josh and the crew have done a great job!

most importantly… THE BEER! 5/5
Great home grown flavors, 6 different kinds of beer and 2 homemade soda flavors. IPA’s to ALE, they’ve got it all! My favorite is the Bubbly Blonde, and the Wild Cherry Wheat comes in a close second.

Drove from Deep Creek on a Tuesday because there aren't a lot of open places to have a beer. Met Joshua, who is a solid guy and described every beer. Impressed by opening a business during covid and was extremely friendly. Get pizza next door or some hot dogs at the brewery. Not much going on in the town but definitely worth stopping by and supporting local.

Came here on a whim during a motorcycle ride. Beer was tasty and owner was accommodating. New place just starting and he shared his vision which will be cool. Thanks for the great afternoon and best of luck!
