Fantastic brewery to stop into on Hwy 4, especially after a long day! The staff were friendly and the service was pretty quick; my sandwich was ready in about 15-20 minutes after calling in my order. The food was hearty bar food; great for when you really want something delicious and greasy. The garlic fries were not amazing, but they were fine, and still very hot when served. The sandwich had a large serving of chicken and bacon, and was packed with flavor. They don't offer a huge selection of beers, but pretty much all of them are flavorful and distinct; they're likely to have something you'll enjoy. Overall a great place to stop for lunch!

Misty was the perfect hostess. She was as attentive as we needed and gave great feedback on our questions. The food was outstanding and the apricot wheat was better than I remember. Try the flank steak sandwich!!!!!!

Amazing Brewery in Sierra foothills. Great place to stop for a beer after a day in the snow. Excellent selection of their own hand crafted beers. Excellent servers who care about their customers and offer excellent recommendations.

I had a soft pretzel with cheese. Their beer wasn't for me, but my husband enjoyed it. The place was quiet for a Sunday, which was a bummer. I hope they're able to stay in business.

They didn't seem particularly busy when I visited, but it took over 10mins to finally have someone come over to us and get some beers. Once we were served, the staff was very friendly and the overall energy/vibe of the place was nice.

Since I live locally, I go there occasionally. Our biggest complaint last night was the service. Our server was very nice, but overwhelmed. One cook, one server, one bar tender. As a result, we waited a LONG time for our food, and our appetizer came after our main dishes. Generally the beer is good, but I tried the Candy Rock session IPA and found it on the malty side with not enough hop flavor or aroma (I am a brewer.). The wild game burger was quite good, as was the potato salad, but everything else was just okay. I hope that they can improve staffing, which might make the experience better. It IS worth a try though!
