@scorchedearthbrewing is a great space with delicious selections. Really enjoyed the space.

Great brewery with outside seating and perfect location if you are ever riding fox river trail. There is even a sign and new road made especially for cyclists to go there for a refreshing glass of beer. This was our first time there but definitely not the last. Good selection of beers, wish they had some food on site available as well.

Giant killer is amazing! Love the atmosphere!!

We vacation to places like this and this one is local! I cant believe I havent been here before! Yummy beers that taste professional with clean flavors and clean taps. Indoor/outdoor seating and bags indoor/outdoor. No food but feel free to bring some in.

I haven’t actually been into the brewery yet but it is definitely on my list of places to go now that I love the first two beers I’ve tried!

Rude and disrespectful bartender/server. Demanded a mask and refused service despite my polite offering of a medical (Doctors note) and religious exemption (1 Cor 11:7). Beer was not great, overly citrusy and overpriced at $7 for 12oz. Very disappointed, never again. I will go elsewhere where I will be treated with respect.

Large variety of high-quality beer. I really enjoyed the IPAs. There is a lot of outdoor seating and a large indoor area. The staff members are very nice and helpful.

Great atmosphere, peeps, and of course beer. Ive enjoyed everything I have tried this far and cant wait to get back for more.

Great place. Nice atmosphere. Lots of tasty beer!

Enjoyed the space and beers! The staff were very helpful helping my friend and I chose the right beer we needed!

Have seen their beers in our local Woodmans grocery store, but had never actually tried them. One day while visiting binnys in Schaumburg Illinois, one of their employees had recommended I checked the place out. Im glad I did. I have to say that I was quite literally blown away by the quality of their sours. One of their IPAs was quite good, but the other I didnt much care for. However their Porter was excellent. Ill be back.

Off the beaten path but worth a stop in. Great selection of many different styles of beers and a few different flavors of Spritzers. Outdoors seating as well as indoors made for a safe COVID visit. Excellent lacing even in a plastic cup makes me think these folks know there craft. Cheers all.

Love this place for a tasty, cold beer! Great atmosphere and lots of options for every drinking taste. We especially enjoy coming on Friday evenings when they have visiting food trucks (yum!) and in the summer when we can sit in their outdoor beer garden. Exiled Angel is my favorite!! :)

Great vibe, good variety of beers, frequent food trucks. I love this place

They have some of the best beers around plus the most interesting. You MUST stop to understand

Great beer, excellent small business casual vibe. Good space and lots of events happening most days of the week.

Friendly staff with a great beer selection. The Hickster cream ale is one of my current favorite beers. They had a nice shuffle board table that was free. Highly reccomend checking this place out.

Really becoming a nice spot. Poutine food truck was very good as well

Always a fantastic experience. Great beers. Friendly people. They have also taken many steps to reduce risk. Expanded outdoor seating and the place seems very clean. My family really appreciated a few minutes of normalcy enjoying a beer on the patio. Kudos!

Very friendly and informative staff. Good beer and nice to be able to bring our puppy. Outdoor space could have used a broom, a minor issue overall. Definitely be back.

Every one of my German style beers was excellent this afternoon.

This place is great and the staff is so friendly. So many beer options that should cover all types of beer preferences.

After checking these guys out at a beer tasting, I needed to head to the source!

Great beers. Fun staff

Great October fest beer

Had a really great time! Love the atmosphere & staff is great. Only been the one time as we dont live here, but a great experience. Good brews of all types

Nice place to hang out at. Unique beers

Great spot that you would never guess is there since its a little tucked away from 62. Gets busy on the weekends and during nice weather in the beer garden, but the beer is good and atmosphere is great.

Great beer. Very cool place as well.

Fantastic place! Tried the Mellon Collie Gose Ale and the Smoked Ale. Both beers were great.

Great year round and seasonal options! My pick: General Resin

One of our favorite places to visit! We go with our 6 year old and sit in the back and play games almost every weekend. My husband and I have gone twice since reopening and well be back as a family once things are back to normal. Great beer, fantastic staff, overall great place.

Love this place. Very laid back casual atmosphere with a wonderful selection of beer

First time there, had a great time. Everyone was very friendly, and the Covid patio was very nice. Plenty of tables with umbrellas for good shade. Got some eats from the Noodles and Stix food truck and it was killer. Good beer selection of both in house brews and outside brews in cans or bottles. We will definitely return....hopefully mask free next time.

Great selection, great beer

Nice outdoor space, just expanded due to the pandemic. Its a great place to start and end a bike ride, inline skate, or run on the Algonquin River Trail. We like to park there and make it the last stop on our bike and brewery tours.

A great brewery. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, and good beer. A simple equation that is increasingly hard to execute

Nice staff and tasty brews

Good beer good people good outdoor seating good food trucks. Enjoy!

Im a huge fan of sour beers and they always have a great selection. They also have some off the wall beers in addition to the standard styles. Trivia night has been fun and they have various food trucks that come out so you can sample different places. One of my favorite beer drinking places in the area!

I love breweries and brewery hopping. Of the breweries Ive visited, I havent reviewed them. I needed to review this one. The decor is typical for breweries that I visit, but yet, still unique. And its October 9, so they have additional Halloween decor, which is a nice touch. Theyre spacious (for a small brewery, if you arent familiar with small breweries) and have a cute beer garden/patio area. Their beers are high quality, tasty, and they have a good variety of styles. If youre in the area, and even if you arent, its definitely worth a visit.

Beer just keeps getting better and better! I love going back frequently to discover the new beers theyve been developing. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable! Great atmosphere, and they more than doubled their original seating area. Love this place!

Really enjoy the beers I have tried! Giant Killer and Hickster. Will buy them again.

Very nice beer. Very attentive staff.

Nice beer and relaxing atmosphere outside on the patio.

I definitely recommend.Scortched Earth offers something for everyone. They continue to show love to all styles of beer.They constantly use locally grown fruits to create exotic variants of many of their core staples. They offer a constantly changing Sour and Barrel aged line that will keep you coming back to try whats new.While their core staples are really good, their small batch taproom only exclusives are hidden gems that are creative and packed with flavor.I do have to give a shout out to their Octoberfest. Its one of the best brewery variations I have ever had. A perfect balance with the right amount of Carmel notes.as of 2020, here is my list of favorites1. blood orange Hickster variant: blood orange infused Cream Ale2. Passion Angle: passion fruit and hibiscus infused Belgian Ale3. Crypt Keeper: imperial pumpkin Porter4. Octoberfest5. Flipmode: New England IPA6. Agent GoldBrew on Nitro: golden nitro milk stout (where your eyes deceive your taste buds)7. Schwarzbier: German style dark Lager8. Sodfather: American pale LagerNow, Im not a big fan of Sour or Barrel Age, but I have heard great things from people who enjoy those styles.Scortched Earth is constantly innovating and trying new things. Their staff is friendly and for being such a small brewery they are pushing out some awesome stuff.being that its a Veteran owned business is another added feather in the cap

Beer is OK but over priced, staff is clueless and can be rude. When busy the staff is easily overwhelmed and tend to only serve their regulars.This place could be awesome if they would hire competent staff and put in a Juke Box so people play music they enjoy versus the bartenders play list on there phone.

Great place with great beer!

Great time here relaxing with the family after hitting the nearby strawberry farm. Stellar NE IPA on tap which I would hope finds its way to regular rotation. Friendly bartenders, easy parking, great vibe. Yummy!

Very cool place, friendly staff, lots of different beers. Good beer too! I hope to make it back.

Family friendly tap room with great beer! Also soda and shuffle board. Expansion went great, theres a big area that you can sit and watch the game or have your own private event.

Great location, atmosphere, and most importantly beer! They dont have a kitchen or food available, but you can order delivery from a number of restaurants in the area. The beer is surprisingly good, with a wide variety of unique offerings ranging from barrel-aged stouts to sours. The beer is reasonably priced, and theres plenty of seating.

A great place, with a really great vibe. The beer is awesome, especially their sour program. The outside space is really great in the summers and Trivia night is a must. Definitely recommend.

Their IPA was delicious!!! The atmosphere was laid back and cozy. I wish we would have gone at night- their outdoor porch was so neat and had lights hanging up for ambience.

Beers are very good. But was disappointed in the customer service. Had settled in to watch the Cardinals baseball game; but the bartender changed the channel without regard for the customers. Not an ‘I am sorry’ or anything. So I left to find a more customer friendly place.

Very pleasantly surprised! We hit this place up on a lark on our way home from a short road trip. Wow!! Couldnt have been happier with each and every beer that we tried, and the staff were SO incredibly helpful and extremely friendly. Wish I lived closer so I could go here more often. Dont miss it!!

The location is a little hidden and off the main road - if you are not local you could easily miss it. The decor inside is cozy and warm feeling. But on a personal level, I just never liked any beer I tried there. I tried to like it, but alas it was not for me.

Passion fruit beer...awesome

Great service, great food trucks, great beers. So glad they were able to expand the place too.

Great spot. Off the beaten path. Awesome taproom heros. Love it there!!! Oh yea.....and great beer!

Nice...but need more shade please

Awesome

First time there. Was a great atmosphere and family friendly. Beer fantastic.

Beer was ok. Overpriced for what it is. Customer Service was terrible at best.Warning: Crawlers are TO GO only! You cannot open it on premises and they do NOT tell you this anywhere on the menu. My father had his 32oz taken away and they didnt even offer him up a complimentary beer for the error. He paid for the beer and they couldve made it right by just giving him a glass to poor it in.$10 down the drain, literally. Promptly left after that and will not be back.

Good beer. High prices. If your cool 😎 and spend money like a fool this place is for you.

I love this place. Megan and Carrie are great and the beer is fabulous! Scorched Earth is my go to spot when I want a beer.

Small tasting area but adequate depending on when you arrive, so plan accordingly. The aromas and beers are not disappointing. Those who drink wine or liquor are your drivers from this stop just like most tap rooms in this area. They have several brews above 8abv. Take care, but return and use a ride sharing service to get home.

Great beer selection

Awesome gem hidden in the NW burbs. Great beer, trivia night is a blast, and I really enjoyed playing shuffleboard. Will visit again soon!

Best beers. New one offered often. Crypt keeper, foraging swine, & bitter chocolatier are my favorites.Come and try them and more. You will not be disappointed.

Just tried it here a few weeks ago and absolutely love it!I love the variety of brews! Taste so good!

Went to Trivia night on Thursdays and it was a blast. The drinks are good too, and they let you bring your own food into the brewery, my friend and I got food delivered there

Best beer Ive found in the area. Super nice people too

Great atmosphere microbrewery. Megan is awesome and always good to see behind the bar!

Terrible service, the bartenders should not be in this profession. Confused atmosphere. Somewhere between taproom, sports bar, and grandmas basement. Brews are good, although some are way out of left field. 4 stars for the beer, order a few growlers and go.

Awesome place. Bigger then it used to be. It door suave Is cool

Nice atmosphere, delicious beers. The food is really good too.

Best selection of sour tasting beers. Absolutely great.

Great beers and very cool brewery with views of the brewery equipment in the back. They are currently building a beer garden for drinking some good beer outside this summer.

I love Scorched Earth and cannot wait to visit again!

I live right up the hill this place is absolutely number one only one I have to say to the management my wife needs more wine ohh ASAP

Great beer selection. Always have something for everyone...IPAs, porters and stouts, wheat, etc

Excellent staff and excellent beers! They truly do care about therlir product and the customers.

Scorched Earth used to okay. Their location is not ideal, but they do have some very good beers. The bar layout is awkward and their customer service is terrible. The staff is rude and unfriendly. I made my final visit to their establishment Friday. It was a horrible experience. On Saturday, this brewery participated in The Great Oudoors Beer Trail for the McHenry County Conservation. The event started at 1:00 and went until 5:00. Scorched Earth was out of beer at 2:30. I am done with Scorched Earth. Too bad this place has failed at being a go to local brewery. If you are looking for a fun, friendly brewery experience, check out the Cary Brewery or the McHenry Brewery. These both have very good beers and they are way better at customer service!

Great craft brews with many varieties. Definitely worth the trip.

Super cool downtown brewery! Had many great options for a great price, plus lots of games and a shuffleboard.

Solid Brewery run by folks who love their craft of making good beer, try the Public Servant if your in the mood for a Rye IPA or the Rugged Coal Miner if your in the mood for a porter.Both solid beers!

Best beer and most creative selection! Theres something for everyone!

Great beer and a cool ambiance. I do wish they had shades on the tall windows.

Good Beer, Nice people, and you can bring your dog!!

Always great beer!!

Great place for crafted beer. They had a food truck cooking tonight.

One of my favorite places to have a beer at.Great job!

Great atmosphere & great beer. They also provide a pretty amazing tour of their location!

Great place. Love that they bring in the food trucks on Fridays

Very friendly service, great food truck networking, beer is decent.

Thursday night trivia - ton of fun, great beer.

Friendly staff, great beer, what more could you ask for?!

Friendly bartenders, good beer and awesome tunes, also they have a nice looking beer garden, but we were unable to go out there since it was raining.

This place has really good beer.
