I swung by here for lunch on 05JUN14, enroute to the Reading WWII Weekend. BBW was easily found on the first floor of a corner building in downtown Bethlehem. The place runs long from front to back, with brewing equipment visible right up front at the windows. There were plenty of tables and booths, and about halfway in I found the bar, running back along the left side. The whole area was bright and airy, and a mix of rock and pop was playing in the background.
They had about 10 brews on tap, with a few bottles also available. I settled for the well-made Maibock, which hit the spot. It paired well with my tasty chicken cheese-steak sammich. The bartender was very friendly, helpful and attentive throughout my visit. I would not hesitate to stop by again if in the area. Prosit!

Really nice, low key, not too big for their britches kind of place. Had the Bavarian pretzels with beer cheese soup for dipping. Very enticing. Beer selection was amazing.... Runs the gamut from simple lagers to complex strong ales.

First of all this brewery was located in a beautiful town of Allentown, PA. Really beautiful ambiance inside this brewery. They had two floors with seating on each floor and their brewing vats were huge. The quality of their beers was solid all beers were decent and they had about 18 beers on tap all of their own. Their beer selection included stouts, porter, gose, West Coast IPA, Hefeweizen, Wit, Lager, and a Pilsner. The waitress (Emily) was very friendly and knowledgeable. Their Pilsner was amazing and probably the best Pilsner I've ever tried, even better than Industrial Arts Metric. We all got sandwiches and/or burgers and they were excellent! Overall solid place with great food, chill and laid back vibe, and decent beers with room for improvement.

Visited Brew Works in Bethlehem on a Saturday night. Waited almost an hour but we had a table of ten(wait was to be expected)...Many of us ordered the flight sampler of 6 beers which was very good. Appetizers were pretty much bar food except the Boom Boom shrimp(very good)...I had the Slag Pot meatloaf which was excellent, Fish Tacos were also very good....Service was excellent and we really had a great night

Quite a change of pace from a large patio Colorado brewery, but it works. The food was good. I enjoyed the vibe of the metal and open brewery equipment everywhere. I wish it had more patio space, but ehh. They had more beers in bottles than on tap, which kinda stunk as I would have liked to enjoy it on tap, but still a decent list. Nothing mind blowing, but still a fun place to get to.
