Miscreation Brewing Company

Tried Miscreation for the first time in Hanover last night. Atmosphere is nice, but can be a little loud due to the fact it’s open and the noise carries. Even worse when the band is playing. But still overall a nice atmosphere.
Beer and wine were great! Pricing is very reasonable. The only thing I would suggest is serving the wine cold. Mine was room temp for each glass I had. They have a food menu but not many options. Finger foods looked good, wish they had some sort of mozzarella sticks and or French fries to much on. That’s a really good go to bar food. Hope they plan on expanding the menu in the future. Overall had a nice experience and will be back in the future.

On a Sunday in August I made Miscreation Brewing my last stop as I drove home from Lancaster after a long birthday week. I easily found street parking and made my way inside. There is seating downstairs but there was no one to greet me. Upstairs was the bar, where a few other patrons had decided to spend part of this lovely afternoon. I took a seat and ordered a flight.
My flight consisted of Dey-​lahyt (a refreshing blonde ale), Yes!!! (an old ale with some bitterness), The Conjuring (a dark ale) and Spweach Impediment (a peach wheat that tasted like peach pie). For a newer brewery I was impressed with their offerings. There is definitely potential here.
As far as impressions go otherwise, well, this is where the stars fell. The bartender (and brewer) was arguing with the server (and I believe his brother) and while he was friendly enough with me, they seemed more interested in their other patrons (who were friends and/​or regulars).
The space itself also has potential. I’m not sure if things have changed, but when I was there the layout was a bit awkward. I wasn’t sure if they were going for a brewpub type feel or more a restaurant with a bar that also occasionally has bands offering entertainment.

Nice hoppy beers and always the sidekick to my Time Line arcade trip. I wish they had a bigger food menu but the small items we always get are enough to keep me filled until I get back home to Maryland.
This place is a nice addition to Hanover and I will continue to visit.

This place is way cool! It’s a small place but it does have a lot of inventive seating, I really liked that. Additionally we were there during a band and it was very busy, they had a drink line and it really helped, nice to grab a beer quickly! The brews are great, I really like that they offer beer to go for the arcade. I wasn’t able to try the food but hope to next time!

What a wonderful and exciting addition to Hanover and thank you for starting to revitalize downtown. The Brew Master Brent Stambaugh is experienced, talented and let me say makes some damn good craft beers. The ambience is fresh and open spaced. They have also started having live musicians which has only added to the value of this brewery. The food is simple yet appealing and remember they are the Chilli cook off winners for many years! In a whole this is a go to venue anytime of the day. Great job and congrats to all who have made Miscreation a success!

Great beer! We first got a sampler and tried the Powder Keg, Reckless, Illumination, and the Conjuring. Liked everything except the Illumination – too fruity for our taste! I love IPAs and especially liked the Powder Keg. It has the right amount of hops and was very flavorful! I wish I could get a growler back home (which according to our server, will be available in some time!). Beer is reasonably priced as well. They had limited food options, but only because there were closed for the labor day weekend. So I can’t comment on the food right now.
We got a great server, which made the experience all the more enjoyable!
Good music, good beer, and good service!

Awesome beer, owners are all so nice, Powder Keg is an amazing IPA, and all of the other beers are excellent as well!

I’ve been back 3 times since my review because I really want this place to succeed. Sadly, not much has improved. The beer just isn’t that good. I love hops and even I think all of their beer is too hoppy. A few members of the staff aren’t very attentive. The few food items I’ve had are decent… but they come from somewhere else.
This place is VERY loud. It is near impossible to hold a conversation.
I am glad to see they are doing well. It’s usually busy when I’m there. But for beer in Hanover, there are several better places.

Good beer, limited food choices. Good locatation and venue; consider combining it with a trip to the timeline arcade!

Super cool place! I love the Illumination, a wheat beer brewed with blueberries and something else (I can’t remember). I love that they have beer + breakfast some Saturday mornings. The food is a little pricey. But it’s pretty good. Definitely come for the beer.

Great craft beers. I got a sampler and had a tough time picking just one. The food was quality despite a limited menu. The spinach artichoke dip was unbelievable! I was able to bring my 10 month old son which was a huge plus. I will be coming back for sure!

Tasty beer with a good variety will have us coming back. I particularly liked the Stout. Limited food menu — wraps, panini, and salads, but each person in our party of four was pleased with their choice. Parking available around back. More spacious than it appears from the outside, and a room to throw darts if you’re so inclined. A welcome addition to the Hanover square– give it a try if you’re a beer fan.

Brand new Microbrewery on the Square of Hanover, Pa. Great selection of beer, wine, and food choices. Definitely worth the trip to this hip new place!!!
