Bloomington is in Illinois, in the Midwest, where summers are warm, winters are cold and snowy, and most errands are done by car; businesses keep steady year-round hours with the usual holiday changes. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Bloomington follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building.

Loved this place! Bartender Skyler was amazing. Our food and beer was sooo good. I had the mango/jalapeño cider and my husband an IPA. We had nachos and pizza. Main choice for this place was ratings and food menu. Most craft brewery’s are lacking in the food but not this place! Lots of choices and highly rated. Well earned on the ratings. Just passing through but would definitely come back if in the area again.

You are doing yourself a disservice if you are in the Bloomington area and not stopping here for a meal! Lil Beaver is more than just a brewery, they are also a fun hangout spot for the entire family. The menu has a little bit of everything for everyone and the beers are obviously all in house and delicious. I had an Amber beer with honey BBQ wings and pretzel bites that all came out hot, tasty, and with very friendly waitresses. They have indoor and outdoor seating for when the season allows and will definitely have to come back for more of this gem

Culinary Chronicles of Central Illinois: An Adventure at Lil Beaver Brewery Some adventures don’t require a passport — just a short drive across Bloomington. Our latest stop took us to Lil Beaver Brewery, a bold and creative hub of local beer innovation that has been delighting Central Illinois since 2016. We were greeted by General Manager Brandon Ciasnocha, who shared stories of the brewery’s evolution and local impact. Owners Adam and Justin Bellas have taken their “small but mighty” brewery from a homegrown dream to a Bloomington favorite that’s crafted over 200 beers throughout the years. Their flagship hit — the ever-popular Wainbows — continues to fly off the taps. Step inside and you’ll quickly sense the energy: the beer garden extends the space beautifully, offering room for friends, families, and laughter under the open sky. Sustainability also plays a proud role here — Lil Beaver partners with local farmers, sending their spent grains to feed cattle and close the local loop in true community fashion. Tasting the Adventure Our tasting flight read like a tour through the brewery’s creative DNA. Wyezick – a crisp and refreshing wheat ale with balanced citrus notes. Wai

11/25 - Played golf with HS buddies & brought them here afterwards. All of them were impressed with the food, service, and atmosphere. Me, I come for the beer, but the wings were pretty good. 9/25 - Came here on a recommendation and glad we did. Great Beer, Great Service, fun & lively place on a Friday evening. but parking can be a problem. Had the Tacos, good but you need a bib. Wife had the Ruben & onion rings and our friend a grilled cheese. No complaints. Will be my place of choice next time I'm in Bloomington.
