    Netflix’s beer-filled sitcom “Brews Brothers” wins you over with its amicability, even if it’s not as funny as it wants to be. ... But balanced with a clear interest in the world of breweries, and the people who would populate them, the lightness makes for an easy watch. Even if there’s not a lot of original frat humor going on, you don’t mind going back for the show’s next wacky scenario.

    Brews Brothers is funny and is easy going down, like a smooth pilsner. But we’d rather it be a little deeper, like a good ale.

    Brews Brothers is heavy on puerile shenanigans, many if not most based on bodily fluids and injecting those fluids and miscellaneous body parts into the brewing process. It's not sophisticated, but it can be funny at times. ... The bigger depth problem is how thin all of the characters are. ... Aisenberg and Castle are fine, but neither has a character grounded enough to be the long-term centerpiece a show like this requires.

    With characters and plots this shallow, the jokes have to be both frequent and funny, but too many fall flat here. It wears its scatology heavily. I’ve nothing against knob jokes, but they have to stand up.

    Brews Brothers doesn’t strive to break the immature humor mold. We all know a clever slacker – this one just thinks it’s more clever than it is.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. A bad show with bad comedy. It's like an incredibly lazy combination of big bang theory and always sunny written by a child who just found out what a penis is. Awful characters who not only don't have redeeming qualities, they actively do questionable things. Rather than laughing during the episodes, I was physically cringing.

    I would have been happily distracted by humor if this show provided any, but instead all it left me with was questions.

    Things that I questioned in the first episode:
    Dude owns a bar, doesn't check his employees age?
    Selling piss beer is an actual option?
    Everyone is just cool with this dude hitting on their friend who has a boyfriend? The dude is a creep and so are the friends for just being cool with it.
    Adam dosed a bunch of people in portland? that **** is a felony.
    Chewy has actually had 0 redeeming qualities, but has seemingly worked at this brewery for a while. Why does he start becoming terrible at his job when Adam arrives?

    Let's just start by saying that the absolute worst character in the show is Adam. He'll remind you of the absolute worst type of person youLet's just start by saying that the absolute worst character in the show is Adam. He'll remind you of the absolute worst type of person you could ever meet. He's arrogant, sour, cruel, and weird. I understand that they're leaving him room to evolve, but they've put his character in such a hole that I don't think most people will wait long enough for him not be a complete douche bag.

    Also, the show is heavy on the crude gags and very light on the actual laughs. I have a feeling that they didn't test group this at all.
