Urban Forest Craft Brewing - Rockford

Wanted to try this place but they're closed at 6pm on NFL playoff sunday (even though the sign on the door even says open til 8).

Absolutely the best craft beer I have ever had! Great comfy relax atmosphere! With impeccable service! Wonderful!

Checked out this local brewery in Rockford recently and had some good stuff while chilling. It's a small place but the beer has big taste. Urban Forest is located in a shopping center on Riverside, along with the popular pho place and whatever. Here it's mostly about beers. They also have fun things like trivia and live music. Beers are the main thing to get. It's really just a small taproom with not a whole lot of room. There's a patio that alleviates the crowds for summer. Menu isn't big but there's variety to choose from. Okay prices considering it's local and the quality. It's about $6 for a pint. That's about average for a small craft brewery like this. Best one we had was the Time Materials. This is an oatmeal stout that has chocolate notes and layers of coffee and roast. Maybe there's chips for $1, but you can also bring food. There's a few restaurants in the plaza to make an order. Have a great time with some beers. It's a great visit after eating in the same plaza or bringing something here. There's fun stuff like music and trivia.

This brewhouse was a very pleasant surprise. Their offerings were plenty including some very interesting additions to their beer offerings in the form of coffee and other flavors.I enjoyed a tasting of five of their everyday brews ranging from a cream ale to a stout; each was outstanding. As a home brewer with nearly 20 years experience in brewing, I know a quality brew when I taste one and here, I had five. Service was prompt and courteous. And the establishment was interesting, comfortable and welcoming. I highly recommend this place!!
