RUDEST brewery in OKC!!! Service was the WORST!! I have heard people raving about the product, but was warned that the service is terrible.
With this in mind, I went to the brewery tonight to pick up beers to-go. I walked up to the register, explained that I wanted to buy some beer to go, and sample a few. Hoping that I would be told whether or not I needed to sit at the bar for samples, or if standing at the register counter would be okay for sampling, I received a smirk as the staff member pointed my attention to the wall menu. Trying to recover the so far unsettling experience, I asked "what can you tell me about" the two beers I was wanting to sample, and received a non-helpful response of that one is "year round and available to go" and the other one is "seasonal and is not available to go." (WHAT? I was expecting a flavor description.) After two quick samples, I placed my order to go. However, since I could not see the to-go products I was confused on the quantity of my purchase -- 4 pack, 6 pack, large bottle. When I asked for clarification, the staff member gave me an annoyed explanation.
While I know there is a big following for Elk Valley Brewing (yes, the BEER IS GREAT), and that there are successful microbreweries in the US who have a reputation for a great product and terrible service, this brewery is too new for that level of arrogance.
