Naked River Brewing Bbq - Chattanooga

We are on a Chattanooga beer trip. This brewery doesn't do flights but we were told they do 5 oz. pours. We ordered and we're told they ran out of 5 oz. glasses. They advertise BBQ but they are out of pork, brisket, and turkey. Service was good but very disappointed in the beer and menu.

Wonderful local spot. Will certainly have to try more things next time I'm in town! It's got that classic hipster/modern feel and look to the building (in a good way! . Food was incredible! Mac n cheese was very unique, both in flavor and in its spiral noodles. Bun of the pulled pork sandwich was soft and even slightly sweet, while the pork itself was tender and flavorful. The MoonPie beer was also excellent, and this is coming from someone who isn't a big beer drinker. It was smooth with a hint of sweetness.

The hours on this place are terrible. Got turned away right after a CFC game. Apparently they close at 10pm on Saturday nights and have no interest in serving fans. This is the second time this has happened to me so it wasn't a fluke. It really is a waste of a location since they're right next to the stadium. How are you next door to a stadium full of 3,000+ fans and do last call before the final whistle of the game? Seriously, if you want to close at 10, why not open a brewery in a strip mall in Collegedale? These kinds of places that close early downtown make Chattanooga a harder sell for out-of-towners. The beers are alright but the limited availability makes this place no better than 2 stars.

The beer was a solid 5 but service was a 2. I drive all the way from Milwaukee and told them that. I asked for a beer and a good menu. No food due to running low on a Saturday night from the weekend but stuff was still coming out ofthe kitchen. I explained again I did not eat for over 12 hour and was waiting for their location and I was denied. They could have worked something out for me. I will not stop again as I pass through in May and June. Sad really.

You can find Naked River Brewing Company at 1791 Reggie White Blvd,. Chattanooga, TN 37408 literally right across from Findley Park. There 's parking in back but I 'm sure it 's a zoo on weekends and during games. The brewery has a fairly large open space with a long bar that acts as the taproom shared with the brewhouse there are various seating options and a patio out front. I got here for a late lunch and there were about 7 8 tables occupied plus a few people at the bar. I met my niece and nephew here who live locally and upon their recommendation. We ordered some pulled port nachos to share. I ordered a two meat BBQ option that included a half slab of ribs and the beef brisket. I thought the ribs good but of course I 've had better the real star was the brisket juicy, smokey and too good next time I 'll just have a big plate of that. For sides I had the mac and cheese and collards both were good and very satisfying and a cut above what you might find at many BBQ joints. For beer I tried a flight plus: Sticky Parts NEIPA 4/5 Competently made Starr NEIPA with notes of citrus, finishing hoppy and slightly sweet. Just an easy drinker, pretty slammable. Double Slap DIPA 3/5 Fairly tasteless Double IPA, was expecting more of a Westy, very little punch to this. BA Midnight Fuggles Stout 3.7/5 Another underwhelming BA stout not sure what the apricot barrel was supposed to provide, mostly a boozy hit. Moon Base Stout 4/5 Smooth, sweet malty backbone, notes of chocolate, caramel and graham cracker, a classic moon pie. Needs to be sweeter but otherwise competently made. BA Moon Base Stout 3.8/5 While the Moon Pie base beer is somewhat interesting, aging in an apricot barrel only added a boozy finish, really this beer needs to be intensified and sweetened to make it worthwhile. BA Docks Brown 3.5/5 Somewhat underwhelming, the barrel adds some booziness but none of the intensity you would expect. Mangalorian 3.8/5 Light easy drinker with fruity mango in a wheat base, somewhat sweet, I was wishing for some sourness to punch things up. Bears, Beets, Black IPA 4/5 Nice sweet roasted malt backbone with coffee notes, well balanced hoppy finish and amazing lacing. Quite nice for this style. Service was exceptional with very attentive server who readily offered suggestions on the beer. I thought the beer in general could use a bit more but this may be what the locals are looking for so no judgements. In all a great experience!
