Pour Bros. Craft Taproom - East Peoria

Great place to come in and try a wide varieties of beers on tap. What really makes this place stand out was the unique concept of the option to purchase beer by the ounce. A card is issued to you and you activate any one of the dozen or so taps on the wall. The card keeps track of which beer and how many ounces is poured. It's a fun efficient way for someone to get a wider variety of beers. You can also purchase beers by the pint off of a menu as well. Not sure of this concept is very wide spread, but its a novel one for me. I liked it a lot! Service was especially happy to explain the process as well when I told them I was a newbie to the place. I'm told during the summer months they have live music there weekly as well. I'll be sure to come back next time I'm in Peoria! Price per person: $10–20 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

The reviews here are good for a reason. I have never been to a place where I serve my own beer, it was a little intimidating at first but was so much fun. Bartender was friendly and eagerly showed me how to use their system. Beer selection in point, will be back again! Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I love Pour Bros. in Peoria Heights for a lot of reasons, but at the top of that list are, the great beer selection, the fantastic live music they feature and most of all, the people who work there. The staff at Pour Bros. knows how to craft a drink, as well as make you feel comfortable, safe and welcome. It's always a good atmosphere to hang in and one of my favorite Peoria spots to visit.

Pour your own beer! How could you not love that? And the service when you want food or don't feel like pouring a beer (some people don't) is just great. Trivia on Wednesday actually improves on an already fantastic place! Beer and food selection are both excellent! Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
