6 Best Craft Breweries near Kings Beach

“beer seems to be getting better by the month. i'm excited to see what they come out with during the next few months. noticed a busy dart night one night i was there. my favorite thing to do is grab taco bell and then a pint and sit around the fire eating my greasy $2 burritos. summertime is busy and i hope they figure out a way to pump out beers (maybe a window?) cause it'll be crowded“

“Alibi is an absolute banger of brewery, they have an excellent selection of brews for cover a range of pallets. What better place to try them out than the source! The location itself is tucked back with some warehouses but they have a pretty nice setup for the bar (no food but you can bring your own from elsewhere). On a sunny day head through the brewery to the shaded back patio to enjoy the fresh Tahoe air and a chilled beverage.“

“We stopped in after a stroll around the lake with our baby and posted up on the outdoor patio. We were greeted warmly and received delicious recommendations for both beer and the lunch menu—spot ON were the Cali common beer and their amber. And the food…SO delicious! Dan Dan noodles are not to be missed, they have a beautiful Szechuan influence and kale, we devour every bite. They grind the meat for their burger in-house and you can taste the goodness between the havarti and arugula. Love coming here every visit!“

“Few things to keep in mind is that this place is not super visible when trying to find it near the waterfront so look for the BBQ restaurant and it'll be inside. However, you can sit outside and enjoy your drinks with a view! Service is decent and you can tell this place gets pretty busy especially during a football game day. Love that the outside is dog friendly and appreciate the turf grass and dog bowls. I can't rate this place by the food because we didn't eat here but I will say it smelled good. Parking is free but I believe 3 hour limit.“

“Food is nice bar fare, quality, but at a bit of a premium. Craft beer selection is solid for such a small area, and the atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. Long tables and four-sided bar-top leaves plenty of room for groups. The staff is friendly but not annoying, professional, and seem to have a good sense of humor. All in all, a great spot to stop in for a laid-back lunch after getting off the hill, or just some brews with the boys. Oh, and they have live music (check with staff for days) and country line dancing every first Monday of the month. Expect a meal and a drink to run you ~ $35Kid-friendliness: While not kid-oriented specifically, Alibi is welcoming to families.“

“I love this place! Great beer! Excellent food! Friendly service! The ambiance is good, too, both inside and out on the patio when it's warm enough. Whenever I'm in Truckee, I always want to go here for lunch or dinner. It's always an enjoyable experience!“
