The Civil Life Brewing Co.

This out of the way Micro Brew Pub is an excellent addition to the St. Louis beer scene. They have solid beers in several categories and the bar is a great place to hang out with or without friends.

The expanded outside patio is great to spread out, and if it‘s wet or chilly the heated umbrellas have you covered!

Served on a Companion roll, a sandwich at the Civil Life is a study in the art of the ratio. The Hot Salami hits the sweet spot of spicy and salty, with salami , onion and giardiniera . (Betha Whitlow) Read more

Very solid beers , and most of them aren't going to leave you on the floor after a few. The pretzels and stone ground mustard is quite tasty. VERY reasonable prices.

Yes, American Brown is #basic, but it’s also #classic and #flawless so whatevs. Everything else is #flawless, too.

Finally, a craft brewery that makes NON IPA/PA beers . Fantastic space and fun games out back. Favorite spot in STL.

The Milk Stout is very, very, tasty, and at a mere 4.4% ABV, it's one of the lowest-calorie beers out there! (Bud Light is 4.1% ABV, for example, and Guinness Draught is 4.1%.)

This place is awesome. All good beer . Good food. Friendly . No IPAs or Hoppy beers here! Cheers!

Amazing brewery , and has just about the best pastrami sandwich I've ever had...going back for sure. CASH ONLY

The beer was awesome, and so was the food!

Knowledgable bartenders . Ask them anything about their beers and they know! Pints are $5. 1/2 pints are $2.50. Cash only .

Great live music Outdoors. Great outdoor seating area where you can bring your dogs. Good for food and beer .

Incredible place! Great brews and super entertainment. A great place to spend a sunny afternoon.

Great staff , an amazing space, and of course, great beer !

The American Brown is their flagship (and it's excellent!), but there isn't a bad beer in the place. Cash only though.

Half pints are great for trying lots of styles. Pretzels are yummy. I love the outdoor seating .

Get the cask English ipa or milk stout . Then order the pretzels with jalapeño cream cheese with a side of mustard . I'm in heaven!

Every beer is delicious. Amazing food (mostly sammies) from the tiniest of kitchens.

In the upstairs area , board games and books can help you while away a few hours at one of the pub’s semiprivate tables. (Evan S. Benn) Read more

One of the best local breweries in STL . Play board games and being cash!
