Moscow Axe Throwing just held a soft opening for the restaurant and beer hall in the basement of their current location. Known as Countryman’s Bier Hall, the restaurant can be described as a “subtle” Bavarian beer hall. Complete with long tables and rustic décor, the restaurant is home to 18 regional beers on tap and another 18 ready to serve in a can or bottle.  

The menu boasts a lineup of traditional German cuisine, with brats and sausages as well as more traditional pub food such as a giant German pretzel with beer cheese and chicken wings. There is also a selection of slider-style sandwiches, with everything from tri-tip to seasoned pork. The wide range of regional beers, ciders and seltzers makes Countryman’s Bier Hall the perfect local stop for a drink and some delicious German style food.

For now, Patrons can expect a variety of food and beer, complete with  axe throwing all in the same location. However, it doesn’t stop here. Countryman’s Bier Hall is looking forward to its grand opening in the first couple of months of 2024. By this time, patrons can expect a variety of events. From dancing and comedy nights, to live music and game nights, all under the same roof.  

Owner Chris “The Axeman” Ihler, explained that the addition of the Bier Hall is just another step in making their business a staple in the Moscow community. 

 “We are looking for new ways to show people a good time” Ihler said. “And we are hoping to become a long-term institution here in Moscow.”

 Currently, a patio is being constructed for outdoor dining and fun during the summertime. There are also plans to triplethe size of the menu and hold more events geared towards the community. With many projects under way, Countryman’s Bier Hall is looking to become one the liveliest places in Moscow.
