I’m so glad we went here! It’s located in beautiful Cedarburg in an old grist mill, right along the river. We went during February, so while it was cold, the snow and the river- and arriving at night was very picturesque. Inside it is very small, Just one room with about maybe 10 or so small tables, and a little bar. The brewing area is in the same room, but it’s very cozey. The beer was decent, and the staff was friendly. Nice place!

Great ambiance. River water flows under the building to create a great entrance.

Nice location right on the river by a waterfall. Several tables outside with interesting heater lamps. The walk into the building goes by some water concoction, I’m assuming it’s part of the old mill or whatever this place use to be. The inside is smoke free and quaint. There are several games to play, something I like to do while drinking a good beer. The beer I had was decent, especially the porter. The guest list is decent and they offer some bottled stuff like Goose Island Reserve, Grimbergen and White Winter Winery. The Blond Root Beer was good, as was the service. Food was only snack type items, cheese and sausage but hey it’s Wisconsin cheese so it’s all good. Main knock on the place is there is only one unisex bathroom so you might be waiting awhile to go.

A great little brewpub with a very nice guest tap selection as well. Home beers are above average and you can’t beat the location with the spring actually inside the building. Speaking to the brewmaster I discovered that this place has been here for 6 years. How did I not find this place before?

Nice place. This all about the beer - no food, no wine or cocktails. They don’t have a huge selection, but they make a real effort to suplement their own brews with some choice guest taps (Young’s Double Chocolate, New Glarus Belgium Red) and great bottles (Founders Breakfast Stout, Goose Island Matilda). Atmosphere and service are both low key. Friendly, more of a neighborhood pub then a trendy brewpub. The one knock on the place... everything is served CHILLED.

After sampling the porter and root beer at the Beer Barons pf Milwaukee festival in 2006, I’ve wanted to visit this place. They had only a few beers, but they were good, and this place is quite cool. I’m definitely glad I visited. Silver Creek is in historic Cedarburg, about 25 minutes north of Milwaukee, right along the river below an old dam. The brewery is in a historic mill, and the creek still runs through the brewery today. The brewpub is old riverstone but is very modern and nice. It is a bit musty inside, but in a good way. Smells...authentic. Inside were 4 house brews (lager, porter, hefeweizen, and pale ale) along with 13 guest taps which had a few interesting ones like NC Old Stock Ale and some locals. This place also had a great (nearly clear) root beer, which was excellent. This place opens in the afternoon, and has no food, making it a poor lunch stop, but a very interesting place to stop for a beer.

Nice place, especially on the patio that rests alongside the creek and a miniature waterfall. Weather was perfect, and we passed away many minutes just soaking up the sun and sipping our beer. In fact, the patio is so relaxing that it kept my son (18 months at the time) perfectly content with the scenery around him. Service was slow on the deck, but the bartender inside was happy to help. Good prices - a pint of the IPA and a snifter of the Porter cost $7 total. They do have a sampler of 6 beers for $9, if that’s your thing, but they only had 3 of their own beers on tap, so we opted for the bigger servings. Nevertheless, recommended if you’re in the area.

Very cool building. Located in the basement of an old historic mill. Bar tender told me it was the feed store’s, located above it, area where they threw all the junk and garbage. They did a good job cleaning it out! The only had 4 house beers but a decent tap list of ’guest’ beers. My only major knock is they don’t serve food.

I haven’t tried any of their own beers, but their tap list is usually pretty good. They try to have one beer per style, which is on a rotating basis. You can check their website to see what’s on tap in the coming week(s), although that’s subject to the availability of the current beers. The only food offered that I saw was pretzels, which serve to cleanse your palate between beers. The brewpub is located just off the main street in Cedarburg in an old mill, so the atmosphere is perfect for some good drinking, imo. As JCapriotti mentioned before me, the best part of the place is the happy hour. The couple times I’ve been there, they featured pints for $2 until 6pm. You can’t beat that with a stick. They have a nice combo of a couple house beers (ie their IPA or porter) but also carry a pretty wide selection of either celebrated US "craft" beers and hidden Wisconsin gems. The only downside to the place in my mind is the fact that they’re closed Mondays and Tuesdays.

They have a decent tap list of about 15 beers, plus another 10-15 beers or so in bottles. The beers they brew are pretty good, had the porter (not spiced porter), it was very good. Will have to go back to try the others. Happy hour is a definite bargain... two good beers for about $4.50. Seems to be non-smoking, but maybe allowed outside.
