I'm very happy I found this place and there is free parking in a small parking garage just down the block. If you park on the street don't park where the curb is red you will get a ticket! The beer is great especially the winter flavor right now! The food is limited. I tried the sausage kale dish which was good but very very salty to me. They chalked it down the generous amount of bacon in the dish. Also, on the weekends the have a small outdoor market with various vendors selling crafts and non-alcoholic drinks like coffee and hot cocoa. The venue is dog friendly and there is plenty of outdoor seating.

My 1st generation German-American friend couldn't believe this existed in Columbia! Excellent ratings on authenticity! We love the beer and you can't beat the food prices! He bought a T-shirt and stein to spread the word. You should too.

Food was amazing and big enough to share! Perfect environment for relaxing or for a get together with friends (and kids).

Who does not love German beer? I love some traditional brewed German beers. this place is surely the place to get your fixed for that. I wish that the pretzels had additional options for mustard to dip into versus a possible beer cheese. However, I cannot significantly complain about anything at all. The staff was absolutely friendly and made me feel so welcome!

Bratwurst event had been cancelled but decided to come here any way for lunch. We both had the curry wurst with the wheat bear. Quite yummy food and beer. Would we go again - oh yes, its a great place to visit.

Beers are great. The food is fantastic. Being in the river makes it very nice. Dog friendly is a huge plus. Clean building and friendly staff

Nice spot, and very ideal for this area. I went with my run crew after our night run in the area. Bierkeller is bigger than I thought it would be, and very bright inside. That's a good thing. They had a bunch of college basketball games on, and the mood I side was light...people were in their own little pockets, which is nice too. I wouldn't say it's intimate here, but depending on when you go it could be. There wasn't much of anything on the menu for me as a vegetarian, but I was really there to sample the beer anyway. I only had one, the house Kolsch, which was light without being 'lite'. My friend who also had one described it as a light-ish Heinikein, which is always good. My crew mostly ate, and I must say the food looked very good. While mostly fried stuff, it didn't look heavy or greasy, so I assume the cook is good. I didn't realize they had deserts, made in-house no less, and the tart that one of the fellas had looked very tasty. I kinda regretted not ordering that, but then that gives me incentive to return, which I will.

We came in town for the Bierkeller Christmas Market and enjoyed lunch outside. They were not serving their full menu but all the menu items being served were absolutely delicious. My daughter and husband both enjoyed the hot cocoa while I enjoyed the mulled wine. They were using window service today and it was pretty quick considering how long the line was. The weather was perfect for outdoor dining, just chilly enough to enjoy the warm beverages.

Another fabulous addition to Columbia's restaurant and beer scene. We been here twice recently mainly for the beer but stayed for the German cuisine. The menu has been evolving and getting dialed in for the different times of the day or rather the brunch service. The venue is beautiful with plenty of space.
