To our surprise, Seward Brewing delivered some of our favorite food in Seward, with friendly service and a beautiful view near the water.
We stopped by in September on a Thursday evening, and got seated right away on the second floor. We sampled a few dishes and ordered a flight of beer.
- A Pretzel ($14) - We originally ordered this as a comfort food, but man - this might be the tastiest pretzel we've had. Perfectly browned and adorned with salt, every bite was doughy heaven, paired with the creamy beer cheese.
- Send Noods ($20) - An umami bomb of flavor with the comfort of udon noodles. This was an asian flavor sensation of chili-garlic noodles and veggies. We didn't expect to find such good fusion down here.
- Side of the Day ($6) - We got a mediterranean farro dish, unfortunately I don't remember the name. Another lovely fusion flavor burst with fresh vegetables and grains.
- Flight ($13)
Shockingly, the beer was the biggest shortcoming. Don't get me wrong, each was unique and fun, but the brewers have a clear focus on SWEET.
The stout, seltzer, Saison, and Razberry smash were all very sweet. I did enjoy the Razberry the most, and the seltzer the least. The milk stout was also nice, with the most bitter profile of the flight.
It would have been nice to have a clean lager or malty red, just something to break up the sweet, sweet, sweet. To be fair, there is a 49th State lager, but I'm here to try the Seward Brewing brews.
Loved the meal and would come back. Just temper expectations if sweet beers aren't your thing. If they are, this might be your home.
