I went there many yyears ago and for some forgotten reason, didn;t like ti at all. Went there again twice in the last year and have had great experiences both times. Atmosphere is great and the beer selection is awesome and well balanced for every taste. Try the amber-you won’t regret it. I’m not a big stout drinker, but it was dark and rich and well, pretty damned good. We really appreciated that after calling around all day, this was the one pub/brewry in Sacramento that was showing the Stanley Cup playoffs on the T.V. -the main reason we went there. The new reason is for the great beer. I travel a lot and it’s now my 1st choice in Sacramento.

I’ve stopped by a few times when visiting in-laws. Always a fair selection of their own brews. Never had their food. Beer has been above average brewpub product. Maybe because it is nearby a college campus that it seems the staff initially pitches the beers by ABV rather than style? They seem to have a fair grasp of the brews upon further inquiry. Typically there are 2 or 3 of which I think are worth a second visit. Their 8.9% One Love Ale, an imperial red style, is worth seeking out.

Thought I had rated this before. Oh well, I have been here a few times. Very wide open, yet congested dining area on the right as you enter. There is also a side room and a patio. Bar is centrally with ample seating. Brewery is located in the back. Menu is kind of limited and the food was amazingly regular. They had about 7-8 beers on tap with a few seasonals, as well. Service was a tad slow the few times I had been there. Despite these annoying shortcomings, the beer here is really good and there is a decent selection. Probably one of the best places in Sacramento.

Great food. Nice venue. Usually a new ale to try. Service is always good. Eat on Sunday and, so far, there is a free take away bomber for each entree ordered. Food has always been good.
