What People Are Saying About Gentle Ben's Brewing Co

The Scene – Gentle Ben's started out as a tiny drinking spot, but as its popularity grew, a move to a larger building on the edge of campus was necessary. The two-story Ben's accommodates University of Arizona folks lunching from a full menu of tasty burgers and quesadillas at the first floor tables. – – The Booze – Nine of the brewery's original ales, stouts and porters (and a few seasonal brews) are made on location, ranging from airy to fruit-flavored. All are highly recommended. The same microbrews as well as Corona, Bud and Coors are also available…

Maybe the worst excuse for a brewery EVER!

by beerreview1

Where is the brewery? It's not there. The beer is brewed off site at a location now called Barrio Brewing. This place is an old run down dirty hut and the beer taste like the place looks too. The food at the location where they brew their beer is impossible to stomach. I review breweries professionally for a living and seldom do I run across one so poorly put together with no positives to write about. This place takes the cake and so does their University location known as Gentle Ben's! NOT AT ALL RECOMMENDED! Only a bum would go to eat and drink there but I don't believe they would work for the food or beer.

  • Pros: Available locations for eating and drinking elsewhere
  • Cons: Beer, Food, Service, Location Sanitation, etc...
