Beautiful building, staff is great and the beer is delicious. I appreciate how cautious they are regarding Covid. Temperature checks at the door, all staff members were in masks and they would not approach the table until everyone put their mask on. Go and enjoy this brewery for a relaxing afternoon or evening.

Great reuse of building in this case a church! Took great care to separate guest and insisted on guest wearing mask when delivering beers to tables and politely waiting. Safety is a priority to guest and staff and appreciated. Well done and will support and return often!

Given the pandemic, I am particularly aware of businesses and their desire to not only make patrons feel safe but actively engage in safety precautions. We felt so comfortable and safe given every procedure taking place. We just wish there was cider for us. No harm, no foul.

Ministry of Brewing has done a fantastic job reopening during the later phases of COVID. Rules are clear and are run through when you first walk in and temperatures are checked at the door. There are arrows placed to keep foot traffic going in the same direction in a big loop when people need to use the bathroom or get up from their tables at any point. The beer is still great, of course, but I really appreciate the strong precautions they have implemented in order to safely serve people. My husband and I went to ministry four days in a row and brought our own board games to play while drinking. It is clear that their rules are not just for show, but all employees are following them every time. I put 0/10 for food only because they do not have food and are currently not having food trucks and there is no N/A option.

This place is simply awesome. If you are religious you may be a bit put off ( I am and I was not) but it is absolutely fantastic space. We sampled the beer, most all of which was good but the 754 was everything you could ask for - excellent. Overall really worth the visit.

Those working at Ministry of Brewing did a wonderful job of wearing masks, sanitizing when guests departed, and keeping their outdoor patio area a safe environment. I felt comfortable going to Ministry of Brewing for an outdoor beer and will be making more reservations for the future :)

No food so did not rate that. Overall awesome experience with great beer. It was easy to make a reservation and policy makes you feel clean and safe while you enjoy great beer. Only thing I wish would have been different is to offer flights of beer for tastings but this is minor! I would highly recommend a visit!

Absolutely beautiful venue- one of the prettiest I’ve seen in Baltimore! They took very careful precautions to ensure our safety and had great recommendations for beer selection. The bartender even provided a few samples to help me with my options. The only thing I didn’t like was, towards the end the bartender seemed a bit curt and frustrated that we stayed a few minutes past close. Don’t get me wrong, we weren’t planning on staying too long but his attitude showed quite frustrated. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed the spot and definitely plan on going back.

We loved being in an old church; very cool. Beer was cold & tasty; my one regret was there was no food. Highly recommend as a place to safely socialize and enjoy great beer. Note: they have very stringent rules about mask wearing and distancing which we liked.

I put 'food' at a 0 because they don't serve food. I didn't see an 'N/A' option. The experience was great overall. They were very fastidious about cleaning and wearing masks, the beer was good, and it was nice to be out.
