“Love coming here when it’s sunny to read and enjoy some great beer. The variety of taps is wonderful, lots of choices for IPAs but also a great selection of less juicy/hoppy beers. The pils was great easy drinking for our week of fake spring“
“Super delicious ginger beer with LOADS of options for different flavors and experiences. My favorite flavor they offer is the white tea one!Must be 21+ to enter. Offers flavored ginger beer, alcohol, slushies, and ice cream floats (softies).“
“I’m in town for a workshop. I wanted to have some beer handy at the Airbnb so I could wind down after the day. Stopped in at Georgetown brewing Company and wow, what a cool place. Nice mix of people. The bartender made a suggestion, and let me know that the hops were Citra, I said, that was great, because I love Citra and Mosaic. Then he told me that they had a very popular beer with both of those hops in it. I had a taste and left with a four pack. And, yeah, parking was easy which is always a plus.“
“Super awesome brewery in a neat location! The owner (one of three who I met), Mario, is a hoot! I can tell that this is their passion, which is always enjoyable when I walk into any establishment. Be sure to swing by and try one of their offerings if you're in the area.“
“fair isle has rapidly become my go to brewery since they opened. a little off the beaten path means it doesn't get nearly as loud and "bro-tastic" as the other Ballard breweries. the beer itself is excellent and their experimental nature means their is always something new to try. the occasional food is always tasty. overall, fair isle is my favorite of all the Ballard breweries; a well hidden secret that I hate to share.“
“This brewery online and it fully exceeded my expectations! Their beer selection was great but their service is what sealed the deal! All the staff were super friendly and happy to serve their customers. My partner and two young kids stopped by and enjoyed a family game night in their outdoor seating, we had a great time. This place is perfect for chill friend hangouts. We will definitely be back and bringing friends next time. Looking forward to being a regular at this place.“
“Fantastic beer and a great vibe with the people (both staff and customers). Every time I'm in there, I dig how many "regulars" are in there and known by the staff. There's an obvious connection with the neighborhood residents, plus they're pretty good with the out-of-towners like me! Get there and throw one down!“
“Prestige and quality beers. They have developed a reputation for some of the best beers in Seattle, and for me the best in West Seattle. Some variety with an IPA focus. Try the lofty stouts. Really cool location with ample room for guests inside and out.“
“There aren't many places that I'll go out of my way for. But Métier is definitely an exception.This might be my favorite brewery in Seattle. The beer is amazing. The space is inviting. The food. Oh, the food. We had the beef curry and jerk chicken okazu (essentially a savory, filled donut). Maybe you're thinking, "Oh, it's fried, isn't that oily?" No. It's not. It's crispy and delicious. The chimichurri was bright, and with the plantain...it was so delicious. But the beef curry was somehow even better. And with a fried egg, it was out of this world.I can't recommend this place more highly.“
“Outstanding beer pub and tap room. I love dark beers, and the selection here was amazing! Flying Lion is also a photographer's dream. It's simply beautiful. Dog friendly, so while I drank heavenly beer, shot photos, and chatted with folks, my dog also had a great time!“
“My mid day study session was in need of a beer, and I'm glad I chose Stoup! Their wifi reaches the upstairs 21+ seating area which was perfect for me.Pretty IPA-heavy selection, but that's pretty expected for most breweries. They still have a couple lighter beers and some sours, as well as canned cider and wine available.“
“A fun spot and a recommended stop if you're doing a Ballard brewery hopping day -- we stopped by at the tail end of our day and it was the perfect spot to wrap things up. The bartenders are good at making recommendations and the whole vibe is laid back -- they have lots of board games and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating! It's definitely less crowded than some of the usual suspects in the Ballard brewery row area. I also appreciated their tie-in decor to all things racing, including some motorsport racing circuits. Everything from the logo to the small decorative touches... chef's kiss!“
“We went there on a whim and everything was 10/10. Great beer, incredible food, and great atmosphere (check that electric fireplace that was throwing off a lot of heat on a cold day).My friends and I really liked the tortillas chips for the chips and salsa. Such a small thing but had us questioning how they were made because they were so good. I also had the quesadillas which had a crispy cheese shell—delicious. Definitely would recommend Standard Brewing.“
“A consistently good, but rarely exceptional brewery. Perhaps my expectations are too high due to the history, head brewer, etc for this brewery, but I was expecting some truly fantastic IPAs. While all of the IPAs on tap were definitely above average, nothing blew us away in the way we hoped. Cloudburst definitely knows what they are doing, though. I expect them to be a pillar of Seattle brewing for the foreseeable future. Staff was fine, but not particularly friendly or knowledgeable. While we went in the middle of winter, it was approximately the same temperature inside as it was outside as well. There are a few kinks to work out as far as service goes.“
“We seem to stop off here often when walking around Ballard and spent a fair amount of time at the previous brewery in this location. I can't recall if I have been to the Renton location of this brewery beforehand. This is one of the newer breweries in Ballard and worth a stop off if you haven't made it in yet. Like most places in the area it's street parking only. They don't have their own food, but there is food available next door which can be brought over. I like that this location is large where you don't feel as cramped as at many of the Ballard breweries and has 2 bathrooms. You can choose to sit inside if the weather is cold, although the outdoor area is much larger. It's good for meeting a larger party, since you likely will not find a big spot to sit at most of the other places. The outdoor area is covered, so you will be dry, but the heating is not as great as you would hope. There's always a large selection of beer available, which seems to change frequently. I also appreciate a place where you can see the taplist thru the window outside without having to go in case nothing appeals to you, with so many breweries in the area you do have to be a little picky. Bonus points for the brewery cat.“
“Awesome, chill brewery with a great selection of sours and interesting flavor combos! I really liked the Pineapple Passionfruit Lemonade Sour and my friends enjoyed their IPAs. Plenty of seating both indoors and out, as well as the usual brewery amusements like board games and merch for sale.“
“The beer is great, but the staff is incredible. This is one of those places that keeps me coming back simply because I love their staff so much. Even if their beer sucked (which it most certainly does not), I would still keep going here. I love having this place in the neighborhood.“
“Great brewery to have a quick hop with a friend. Feel free to bring your four-legged friend and small humans as this place allows dogs and children. What's best, one of their offerings is a sour beer, in addition to what is expected in the area (IPAs). If your lucky, the bbq food truck is there to complete your full experience.“
“Very chill space. Casual vibe, lots of locals and regulars. Great place to visit and get a sense of Seattle and the local micro-brew scene. Couches, tables, barstools, wifi; upstairs there's more tables and couches, plus games and a pool table. No kids, 21 and older only. No food, but food trucks almost every day. And damn good beer. They have at least 25 on tap, moat they make themselves. Plenty of parking too. Bring your own food, or get it from food trucks or nextstore. Truly "come as you are" and bring your dog, too.“
“Fast Fashion is fantastic--their philosophy of beer, the taplist, the cans to go, the vibe, the music, the decor! It a great atmosphere and surprising. Matt the co-owner/brewer is so nice and kindly shares his knowledge, brewer experience, and can help you choose a beer style you will like. FF is the new go-to destination brewery in SoDo. Word should spread quickly (｡•̀ᴗ-)و ̑̑✧“

“I have nothing but heavily coisterous praise for this place, nay I even give it Cheers... picture this.... you are making your way in this world today and you're giving it all you've got You are trying so God damn hard to earn your way and have to forage ahead. You find yourself desperately needing to take a break from all your worries,Sure would help a lot...Wouldn't you like to get away?(like the rest of us poor souls).All those nights when you've got no lightsThe check is in the mailAnd your little angelHung the cat up by it's tailAnd your third fiance didn't show... because she wasn't the "Norm" .....Sometimes you just wanna go to a familiar type of place... a place where everybody knows your name.and they're always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see that many of our troubles are all the same, you wanna be where everybody knows your name. A place where you can roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee is not going to be as lively as this place.Be glad there's one place in the world where. everybody knows your name.....And come to think of it, they're always glad you came.....You wanna go where people know , that the People are all the same.You wanna go where everybody knows your name.... Pints on the shelf happen to be engraved, because they also have my name on it... and clearly EVERYONE KNOWS MY NAME... or they can just read it from my glass. Anywho..." this place is foundational to what dreams may come" - Bill Shakespear“
“This is my 200th brewery I've visited!This is a cute neighborhood garage, a sort of man cave for darts, games, pinball, dogs, a variety of beers from the area, and a couple brewed at the place (3 when I visited). Cute, warm even on a winter night, and pleasantly cozy.“
“This is a very very awesome brewery! I am excited at the opportunity to work with them, to help them have live events like comedy, music, and other forms of entertainment. It is a really nice space and has a nice outdoor area and is in a great neighborhood. The neighborhood has a 1990s nostalgic light feeling, in a way that the other parts of Seattle do not currently have anymore. (With the exception of West Seattle, which still very much holds onto that feeling I so much miss from my childhood) So go to the brewery! Have fun, be safe, and laugh a lot! - Noah aka DinoDad“
“One of our friends described this very Seattle brewery perfectly: You see people playing D&D while the Seahawks are playing. Beers are brewed in house! We love playing games and hanging out here. Friendly staff and fantastic atmosphere. I mean, how can you beat hanging out, drinking and playing board games while watching sci-fi films / Seahawks games? Strangely to some, the most impressive aspect is the restroom setup. Gender neutral rooms with tampons/pads on hand for those who need them. For those who don't typically see this setup, it's kind of a big deal and helps this brewery stand out.“
“I love this place! Great ambience, lively people, and it has a European vibe with the picnic tables outside under a tent. A good place to hold a late afternoon business meeting when it's a Thursday/ Friday and EVERYONE wants to get out of the office for a change of scene. On draft, I recommend Queen Anne's Revenge, when it's available. And just when you realize you need a snack, there's a food truck right outside. Also, quite a cool merchandise shelf. I couldn't resist purchasing a hat to start off the new year.“
“I've been to Lantern a couple of times to meet friends. They have a lot of tables inside, but depending on the time of day, they may fill up. Also note that the place is kid friendly and the stroller and kid contingent tends to dominate the place earlier. If you want to avoid that, that grouo tends to clear out towards 7, consequently freeing up tables.About the beer: when I go to a brewery, especially in the PNW, I tend to eyeball their IPA selection. In the two times I've been to Lantern, what I've noticed is that they haven't had an IPA selection. That isn't terrible in itself, and it kind of forces me to expand my choices. I've had pales and sours (which they had a couple of the times I've gone), and had their gose the last time, which all of us enjoyed.For food, there's usually a truck. Last time was a nice Mexican truck, which was really quite tasty.Parking sucks. Arriving around 6:30 increases your chances because the folks with kids and their SUVs tend to be heading out at that time.“
“Beneficial Brewing is the first Kombucha company I’ve found that keeps the full flavor you’re looking for without packing it with sugar. Every one of their brews has been delicious. No more searching for the next best booch, I’ve found it.“
“Without a doubt the best brewers of sours in the Seattle area. While others like Urban Family make great kettle sours, Dirty Couch makes fantastic sours that are not simply loaded with fruit. This more authentic style may be an acquired taste for some, but they are of the highest quality. Service and knowledge of the beer is absolutely top notch as well. Worth the visit!“
“Fantastic beer. Easily my favorite Seattle brewery. I don't like IPAs but I'll alway try the ones they have on tap--somehow they're always delicious. The location is a little chilly in the winter if you sit near the front so bundle up and grab a stout!“
“A perfect Third Place. Great spot to chill with an interesting beer. It's in a cozy house and is a perfect location to work or hang out. There's plenty of space, including an room upstairs that can be rented out for private parties.Check it out on Sunday evenings, there is a bluegrass jam session around 8 pm most weeks!“
“Decent brewery with a good selection of beer. They have a lot of different options, so even if you go in a large group everyone will likely find something.It's a large space with both indoor and outdoor seating. Great to bring pets / kids.They don't serve food, but there's a food truck right outside which they allow you to bring with you.“
“Great beer and tasty other non-alcoholic items that you can take to go. They're relatively new and are a smaller operation if you'd like to have a change of pace from the packed breweries in the area.100% recommend checking these guys out.“
“Love them absolutely to bits. They are my local pub, I hadn't planned them to be, and I couldn't be happier about it, other than it being dangerous them being so close by.The best staff, lovely brews, chill atmosphere, pet (not just dog!) friendly, and genuinely just a nice place to hang out for a hot second.Not to throw shade too hard, but would 100% recommend over old stove which is also nearby. Rooftop has better beer, staff/denizens, and vibe by a mile. If you want a grumpy bartender and fratbro atmosphere, go to old stove. If you'd like to sip lovely beer, maybe love on a chill doggo, and just generally have a nice day, stroll on down to rooftop.“
“Gotta leave a review here and call out Sue for taking the time to learn my name and beer tastes and make great recommendations. The hoppy offerings here, both east- and west-coast style, are among the best I’ve had in the area and the taproom is very welcoming to humans and doggos alike. I will admit I didn’t try any of the non-hoppy beers but to those who don’t roll with IPAs they had a good variety which I hope to hit next time I’m in Seattle. Very impressive brewery.“
“Walking in West Seattle on a beautiful sunny Sunday and I ended up here. On accident? Nope, thank you Yelp for the brewery recommendations in the area. The vibe here is super cool and fun here with many choices for beer. I had a sour which was super refreshing and just the right amount of sour for a sunny day. Based on previous reviews I ordered the pretzel. My pretzel experience was not favorable. It was hard, almost stale and I had to soak it in the cheese sauce to take a bite. No problem here, perhaps it was an off day for pretzels here. The service was super friendly and the vibe excellent. Clean restrooms, open seating with loads of room. The outdoor area is huge! Probably a remnant of COVID outdoor seats. The heat was kicking up so I sat inside for the air conditioning. I look forward to more fun vibes in West Seattle. Cheers, happy Yelping.!“
“The passion fruit, peach, and honeycrisp apple flavors are all great! All the drinks had a good amount of carbonation and had tastes matching the names. I really liked the honeycrisp apple with its sweet cinammon notes. I'm sure there are tons of great flavors to choose from.The open seating is very nice and they had football playing on the big projector screen. Would be a great hangout spot! Service was great as well.“
“Outstanding atmosphere, service is always perfect, and the food is phenomenal! My gluten eating friends never complain when I ask to come here, they love it too. It’s so fun to be able to enjoy fish and chips again, they’re some of the best in the area.Vegetarian options: Plenty of delicious options and they are fantastic about making recommendations for modificationsDietary restrictions: Obviously a gluten free haven but they can accommodate other dietary needs like nut free, soy free, or dairy free. They know their menu well and take great care to ensure you have something safe to eat!“
