"After a 9-hour drive, all I wanted was a solid meal and a cold beer. Like Johnny on the Spot, Balter Beerworks delivered. The atmosphere was exactly what I needed—your classic bar setup with high tops, tables, and a slight industrial vibe. It was too hot to sit outside during our visit, but they’ve got a great-looking patio I’ll definitely be back for when the weather cools down. I started with the Sunsphere wheat beer—yuuuum. Light and crisp with a bold citrus finish. If you're into wheat beers, this one hits. So good I ordered a second without hesitation. For food, we went with the Ranchero Chicken and the Brewhouse Burger. Both were full of flavor and cooked perfectly—no corners cut. We’d happily order them again, though with so many tempting options on the menu, we’ll likely branch out next time. I don’t hand out 5-star reviews often—especially not for bar-style spots—but if I did, Balter Beerworks would be right up there. Check it out, and thank me later."

"Boyfriend and I came here for a little anniversary dinner, had never tried it before but was very excited. We ordered a pretzel as an appetizer and it was delicious, finished the whole thing in 10 minutes! Only downside was queso was 4 dollars and was not told it was an upcharge. We then got our food a short while after, as well as two beers. Best burger I've had in a long time, and the mac and cheese was so yummy I scraped the bowl clean. My boyfriend loved his fish tacos too! Would definitely go again!"

"We had a great experience at this brewery in Downtown Knoxville! The beer & food were both excellent! We will be back!"

"Knoxville is half-way between Nashville and Asheville - needed a dog-friendly place to meet our daughter for a vehicle swap. This place was fabulous. Beautiful outdoor patio with fire pit, excellent smash-burger and fries, and a great locally brewed lager. Savannah was also an excellent waitress! We will be back."

"Balter Beerworks has urban industrial aesthetics with warm neighborhood vibes. The space is inviting and social. The foods was yummy and the service great. The burger left a memorable impression; one that stands out is the Brewhouse Burger. Plus, the home-made beers were really good!"
