Cannon Ball Brewing Company

Unfortunately this place has just been announced is closing on December 9th 2023. However I have consistently found this place incredible for not only the Scarlet Lane beer, but also the quaint bistro like atmosphere at this particular location. I hope someone else is able to utilize this place in a retail, preferably brewpub or distillery location, and make a mint off of it!

Tonight the light, highlight of our evening was brought by the darker side of the folks at Scarlet Lane!! We couldn’t ask for better service if were Paul Sheldon at the home of Annie Wilkes (prior to killing off his darling). They were quick with service and kindness like Michael Myers with his knife in the town Haddongton,IL. We’ll be back soon, Scarlet Lane!!! By the light of the moon, we’ll be back!!!

Good beer and pizza with friendly staff. Hang out inside or outside on the patio areas and enjoy the sun. I really loved the Erik Bloodaxe. But don't order it unless you're ready to go into battle. At 11% you're going to feel this assault on your taste buds. But it's worth it. Pizza is good too. A great stop if you're in the neighborhood.

A quaint but mighty neighborhood staple! I was immediately excited by the outdoor picnic tables and cute lights in the back by the complimentary parking, but then it became the gift that kept on giving with bike racks neatly placed along its side and even more table seating offered in front of the main entrance. So much room for activities! Gotta love the horror-ish decor embraced by all the Scarlet Lane sites, too! Perfect for this Halloween season! Plenty of indoor seating available as well. I have to say, we were "those guys" tonight that showed up with a group of 20 thirsty patrons out of no where, & the 1 bartender/server available handled us flawlessly. I think we tapped a few of the kegs. Oopsies! Luckily, they were perfectly prepared to serve up our favorites via chilled bottles. Seriously though. Such a large group can be so overwhelming, but the gentleman serving us remained friendly, hospitable, and available throughout the evening. Such a great job on stellar service!! Can we talk about this menu, too??? The Fall 2021 seasonal menu serves up much more than your standard bar food. The fresh ingredients offered let you fill your belly with quality and hearty substances. I opted for the flatbread that was topped with such flavorful ingredients as sweet potatoes, broccoli, & blue cheese. Pinkies out, folks! This was delicious! It went perfectly with my Dorian Oatmeal Cream Pie Stout and the Katrina Brown. Recommend!! All the stars! Thanks for hosting us, Scarlet Lane Gastropub!
