I always enjoy visiting local breweries, but Matthews is cut from a different cloth. It just has a different vibe to it as far as decor goes and I mean that in a good way…has a very “Hard Rock” feel to it. The bartender was very friendly and took his time listening to what I drink at home to make a recommendation for me (first timer). I also like that their beer menu was not “overloaded” and many of their options where unbelievably appealing. Had a beer there and took a growler home to share. While I sat at their bar, the outdoor beer garden also looked cozy and inviting! I am already looking forward to going back to try more of their offerings and will do so when one of the local food trucks are there!

We recently relocated to Lake Worth Beach from Massachusetts and were VERY impressed with Mathews Brewing Company. Microbreweries were VERY popular in MA and this brewery is very reminiscent of the New England style breweries. The indoor space is very nice and there is ample outdoor seating with 2 stages for performances. There’s also a food truck every day in the event that you want a snack or dinner. We were excited to find a citrusy, hoppy, New England style IPA. I took off one star because my husband can’t have grapefruit due to a medication he is on and when I asked the female bartender if there was grapefruit in a particular beer, she was very gruff and responded, “I can’t possibly know all of the ingredients in all of the beers.” She didn’t offer to find out, she didn’t ask her manager, she just brushed us off. I’ve never been to a brewery where the workers are unaware of what is in the beer they are serving and are unwilling to find out. Hopefully in the future the bartenders can become better educated about the beers they are serving in the event that someone has a medication conflict or food allergy.

Quick stop at Lake Worth from Miami on a Sunny Sunday. Were around the neighborhood, look for Mathews Brewing Co. We had a great beer. Good ambience, music, and great staff.
