Absolutely loved everything about Kinsmen Brewing for our wedding in November! It felt like we were hosting a huge dinner party with all our favorite people, except we didn't have to do any of the work. We opted for pizza as our main meal, and it was a huge hit. Casual but elevated! The beers were delish and the whole nights vibe was exactly what we were going for. Ryan and Michele were there every step of the way to make sure everything went smoothly. We loved the rectangular tables, the big dance floor, and the simple decor in the room. Highly highly recommend this place! We love pizza and beer so we couldn't think of a better place!

Michele and Ryan went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect, ran smoothly and on time, and that my husband and our guests had a wonderful time at our wedding. The venue is absolutely beautiful and Becky who did most of the catering makes the most incredible appetizers and desserts! We cannot recommend Clark Hall enough. Kinsmen's beer is also fantastic, and the onsite pizza from Sauced is to die for! If you are looking for a wedding venue - look no further. We had 65 guests but they can accommodate at least twice that.

Clark Hall at Kinsmen Brewing Company absolutely rocked our wedding. Very chill throughout the planning process. On the day, it looked gorgeous. I jumped up and down when I walked in! The whole staff worked really hard to make everything perfect. We had about 130 guests, and ended up paying about $145 a person, and that price includes their food, open bar, tables, chairs, some decor, signature cocktails, professional staff, dance floor, and an AMAZING coordinator (Director Ryan Tunnaclife) who kept the whole day and night run smoothly and on time. I had no worries all night, and had the time of my life, I hardly left the dance floor. They say they are new to the wedding game, but you would not think that if you had been to our wedding. This is a hidden gem. The vibe is industrial cool meets cozy lodge. There's a fireplace. Long, beautiful wooden banquet tables felt like we were in a castle. A brewery is an a-typical wedding venue, some might say. But it was perfect for us. It felt special and unique. Not like many other venues we toured that felt like wedding factories...rushing us in, around, and out, some even doing multiple weddings a day, and charging nearly twice the fee! No, sorry, that's not it. There were things I gave up that I thought I really wanted...like nature/an outdoor space. But a week after our wedding we did a second photo shoot in the fall colors in a park and it was a fun excuse to get all dressed up again. Only thing that could be improved on is the food--choices are limited. But I didn't care. If you're a foodie, you might. I am so grateful to the Kinsmen for our wedding celebration. Our guests loved it too, they still remark to us how beautiful and fun it was months later. Thank you Ryan, and all.
