Decor

It's one of the hottest concepts in the nation and the 300-seat brewpub has been rockin' ever since it opened its doors last May.

The casual yet classy interior is an awesome wonder. Massive stainless steel kettles greet you when you enter the door and give an indication that the main business here is making beer. Five to eight varieties are always on tap. The gigantic bar is a woodworker's paradise and a perfect spot to down a few while waiting for a table. The dining room is a noisy, busy place with 100-year-old monster barrels from the Point Brewery welded to the walls and encasing the huge wood oven. Everything appears larger than life at the Brewhaus.

It's an amalgam of friends, families, daters, and business types all with one thing on their mind -- getting well-fed and having a good glass of beer.

Your wish is their command. Wood oven pizzas, The Caesar Chicken with a salad on top is a most interesting and tasty option. Giant pretzels, burgers, tuna melts, barbecue ribs, jambalaya and some hefty steaks are just a few options from the multi-page menu.

Inexpensive to expensive.

Forget the wine and cocktails. Think beer and the Delafield Brewhaus makes its own soda for the kids. Here's looking at you, kids!
