Beer is very good and abundant. So many to choose from, with free tasting! Find the one you like, and tell him to fill'r-up! It's a small/medium sized establishment. It's quiet and calm. A place to relax and enjoy a quality brew. You can sit at the bar and make friends or, sit at a table with your loved ones. The bartenders are very friendly and will advise you on the beers. They are very knowledgeable. They know their beers! It's made right there. I believe there are 20 on-tap. They have home-brew bottles as well. They sell beer drinker's comfort food; sausages, potato chips, etc., along with all the fix'ens. The range of types of beers is phenomenal. From light, to medium to dark stouts. All are listed with their alcohol content. I saw one the other day that was over 12%! The strong ones linger around 7 or 8%. Beer types change as they brew more. One of those 8 percenters is enough to get a good buzz! Enjoy! read more

I love how kind the bartenders are so nice tie is to! The food is really good I like to get the hotdog with chips. It is great there are kids are dogs there all the time! and it's LGBTQ+ friendly read more

Best brewery visit of the summer! The highlight was the stag horn sumac sour! They have 5 sours to choose from which is a rarity. I didn't try much else but I'll be back. Andrew has a story for every brew and is a pleasure! read more

It's a smallish place, but it has a great atmosphere, really good beer and friendly, helpful staff. We'll be back when we're in town again.

Amazing selection of beers in an inviting environment with fantastic service. The annual Braggotfest is a memorable experience, if you have the means; I highly recommend attending. read more

We love the creativity that Bellwether puts into their beers. You can always count on them for unique and flavorful options. They now offer food options in the form of MaryLou's Gourmet Paninis. The menu has starters, sandwiches, salads, etc. Great pairing! We had the "Drew" and the "VIPP"; both perfectly cheesy. read more

We tried a couple different drinks while eating at Loco's which is in the same room. The building itself is bright and there are multiple businesses right in the same room. The drinks were great, and the staff were super friendly and knew the exact flavor profiles of the beers that we were asking about. We will be back. read more

What a nice place. Great atmosphere, great bartender and intimate enough that you can hang out and chat. I will definitely be back. read more

My friends and family hosted my 30th birthday here! Oh my goodness. First I have never had a party thrown for me and this place was perfect, and it was POPPIN'. Dirty Thirty at Bellwether plzzzzz. Anyway the owners of this spot are so rad. They booked the space to my husband and my friends after a couple different missed dates and it was awesome. The architecture of the building and the cool banquet space was set up so perfectly. I had about 40 to 50 people ebb and flow throughout the night and that was dope. The bartender kept the drinks flowing. Now I had beer lovers in my party and they loved the beer but there were quite a few of us that don't drink beer - so we went with this gorgeous pink grapefruit cider and it was so fun to see all these pink drinks around my pink party. Also pro tip - don't have hard liquor at your birthday party because this set up let us let loose without being messy, you know cause' we're 30 now. Overall, awesome space - we brought our own food and a lot of it. The party was so good and coming here when it is summer season, that patio is fun too. Enjoy! read more

A group of us stopped into Bellweather as part of our Brewery tour. Free parking can be found in the parking lot. Discover is an accepted form of payment. There is a small outdoor seating area to enjoy on warm days. Indoors has plenty of seating. Bellweather offers wine for non-beer drinkers. Light bites can be ordered to pair with ones beer. My wife had a Cochinito amber for $6 and I had a Golden Nuggz IPA for $6. Neither of us were impressed with our beer choices. Bellweather showcases different but interesting drawings on their walls. These drawings were the highlight of my stop into Bellweather. Bellweather looks and feels unfinished. Staff was friendly enough. Overall, I'm glad that we had the chance to experience this brewery one time. read more

I'm torn. Really good sour beers, but crappy service. Interesting, adventurous, taplist. Bartender and bar back too busy talking to people to serve customers and taking orders from people who hadn't been waiting before people who had been waiting a long time to get any service. Had to pay my tab and get out rather than get another round it was so bad. Good snacks with good service available to soak up your beer. Probably worth another visit and good at other times to try their other beers. read more

If you like beer and history you have to go there as they are bringing historical brewing back. I have to admit, I had a few pops so can't recall it all but they make beer without many ingredients today so it's cleaner and a better taste. I went to many breweries when I was in Spokane is this one is the best by far and Spokane has many. read more

Come for the amazing beer, leave feeling like family. Absolutely the best and most welcoming place to hang out

Went to bellwethers new location and there was a man there that was super drunk said he was a bartender there and he was super rude and insulted my race. Will not be coming to the Hilliyard location ever again not dealing with a racist pos. Love Bellwether but will not be going to this location if this pile of sh*t still works there read more

Diversified lineup of some of the best beers we've ever tasted. Just Wow! Dog friendly on both front and back patio. If you are a beer geek, this place is a must visit. BTW, the Rowan Oak is a "sour" that IPA folks should try. Think full bodied, and at the same time, tart. Really complex. read more

Bellwether is my neighborhood brewery. The beers are very interesting and excellent. It is an excellent place to meet friends and family and enjoy the community. The owner and the barkeeps are great people. Always a warm hello and good discussions. Warm and cozy inside during the winter with a wonderful backyard for the warmer months. Bellwether is one of Spokane's best! read more

I really wanted to love this place. It's cozy and staffed by people who obviously love their beer. But the beer left little impression on me. I did a flight and only liked two of the five, actively disliking at least one. The Dew of the Sea was popular among those I talked to, and I thought it was average. Honestly, everything about this place was ok, but just that. It's a totally ok place. read more

If you love beer but feel like you've tasted it all, this is the place for you! Bellwether's beer is innovative, thoughtful and unique. When tasting a flight, every single beer tasted like a work of art completely separate from the previous one. The employees are friendly, helpful and passionate about their craft. The tasting room had great vibes and was full of happy beer enthusiasts. We live about 1000 miles away and we will definitely be back! read more

This is my girlfriend and my favorite place to go any time! We even got our Valentine's Day nightcap here (which they had a great dessert and beer flight that night that was really amazing!) But my favorite thing about this place is the energy or vibe. The owner is such a great person and it shines in the whole atmosphere of the bar! Every time that we are there, everyone is always having fun! We have met some awesome friends here and had a lot of laughs! I also like that as a lgbt couple we have ALWAYS been welcomed with open arms! It's a safe space for anyone and everyone, no matter what ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation or anything else. Which is super amazing. The beer is also super great! I'm honestly not a huge beer fan, but I love a lot of the beer on tap! Seriously, check this place out!!! read more

This brewery is probably my most favorite on my trip to Spokane last weekend to take in the Chinese Lantern Festival and tour around at the craft breweries in the area. The bartender was super friendly and very personable! He brought out the social out of everyone there! Really a nice guy! Continuing to stick with lighter ABV beers I got a ginger blonde which was fantastic! I would have definitely gotten another but there were other breweries to visit. This brewery will be #1 on my "to return to" list when I am back in Spokane. The beer tastes great at the atmosphere is light, airy and fun! read more

Are you a fan of off-beat euro old world brews? These brewers have taken the pages out of the old testament and have created modern interpretations of some ancient techniques. Theyve got an amazin selection, from really light wheat lagers to amazing saison and some off beat grow-your-own versions of braggots which are really tasty. Our server was precise, friendly and helpful in our discovery of new inventive beers-cheers! read more

Great ambiance! Great hospitality! When you walk in you can instantly feel welcomed and they try to find a beer that you'll enjoy. I enjoyed my beer and my husband enjoyed his. The variety is nice as we like very different styles. We will be back! read more

I've stopped in here a few times now to try out their beers and I've liked what I've had. If it's your first time I would strongly recommend getting a flight so you can try out several different offerings because their beers are very unique, even among craft beers, which is a good thing! Every time I've been in the service has been excellent. Whoever is working has always been very friendly and answered any questions that I had. read more

Dave alone is a reason for five stars. He personally greeted everyone with a handshake and a proper name introduction, a courtesy not commonly found anymore. Not only was Dave fantastic, this place had really cool decor and a good selection of beers. I ended up getting the rye wine (9%). It was as tasty as it was strong! I came here right after dinner otherwise I would've probably ordered food too! The regulars said the brewers experiment with crazy flavors such as kale and beet over the summer! What a fantastic way to get a buzz and feel like you're being healthy! I will definitely be back. read more

I went in for a growler fill during an early afternoon. The staff there is always friendly, whether there is 25 or only 3-4 people there. I really like their Second Breakfast Hefe, so I usually get a fill of those. I recommend this place, especially in the warmer months because they have a pretty awesome patio! read more

If you go here don't expect your tastebuds to ever be the same again. The beer here has more flavor than all the beer in Spokane. Not to say you will like them all but you'll be bound to find one you just might love. They're chalkboard is ever changing. They pay attention to their ingredients with old world batches of ancient grains and rare strains to come up with extraordinary flavors that are off world savory. Anything from blueberry milkshake to garden herb cracker flavor made by friendly local people in a nice neighborhood. If you call yourself a craft beer lover Bellwether is a must visit read more

I'm a huge fan of craft beer and Spokane has several breweries to choose from. Bellwether is my favorite in town. Great staff, nice venue, and fantastic beers. Their beers are unique and the selection is constantly changing. My favorite beers are their Barley Wine, Seawolf, and Waggoner's Bitter. I'm glad there is a brewery in town that does something different. I strongly recommend this place for people looking for new types of beers to explore. read more

Dave and the crew do a great job making everyone feel as though they are a part of the brewery. Bellwether supports the community in a variety of ways and is always supporting the Monroe businesses. If you are looking for ancient brewing techniques like Gruits and Braggots, then this is your spot. They make a variety of sours as well as the usual suspects. This place is the future of brewing and community. read more

Bellwether is a great place, I loved how clean and modern it is. They have ample beer and ciders on tap. It's really cool because they have a huge roll top door they keep open and lets the nice weather in. They offer different types appetizers which are good and go well with the alcohol. I tried a few beers and all were good, however, they have a beer I tried that I haven't seen anywhere else, they called it "Dew of the Sea" it was really exceptional, it was a porter cider. I definitely recommend this place and hope that people give that beer a try. Also as a side note, the parking is ample and the bathrooms are very clean and private which is really nice. read more

Update: We went back to Bellwether to give it another chance and were so pleasantly surprised we went back again. The customer service was excellent and the unique beers. Now we can confidently recommend this establishment to anyone yearning for a unique beer. We went to Bellwether about a year ago and were disappointed in the service, beer and over all vibe of the restaurant (like when you talk to the person next to you, you feel like everyone can hear you sort of vibe). We thought today, "you know what let's give Bellwether one more try". Unfortunately, we sat down and waited for over 10 minutes before we finally walked out. The one server working today (same guy from last time with the very poor customer service) was talking to the people at the bar that he had already served (clearly just socializing with them and they were the only other patrons besides us) while we sat there and waited and waited.. didn't say hi, just nothing. Treated us like we didn't exist and clearly was much more interested in chatting with his friends at the bar. Needless to say, we are done with Bellwether. It's too bad since we are huge craft beer fans and have friends who are too so we will be sharing withthem and any one who asks to avoid this place! Sorry. read more

There are few reasons to give a small business a one star. But when I feel unsafe there, no matter how good the beer is, I make an exception. Be aware that this is a Proud boy handout. read more

Finally made it in here and was very pleased! Bellwether is charting territory no other local brewery is attempting and it was really exciting to see all the diversity of beer on their taps. They specialize in Old World beer and the bartender really knew his stuff. He had lots of great commentary and was freely pouring samples so we could find just what we wanted. For those who don't love beer they had a cider, a mead, and three wines all on tap as well. (Yes, wine on tap!) One really unique thing they do is taking the spent grain from their brewing and having it made into bread, pretzels, etc by Alpine Bakery. What an awesome idea! They had a cheese plate, a panini, and a few other tasty looking treats on the menu too, although we didn't try anything I definitely will plan to next time. They do growlers in three sizes (including an adorable mini-picnic-worthy size called the Whisperer). read more

Plenty of other places to grab a brew in Spo. Atmosphere was mostly 40+ yr olds and kinda dead on a Saturday night at 8pm. I see all the 5 star ratings and agree that the beer tastes pretty good. However, someone in our party was insulted by the waiter (presumably one of the owners) for being a finance major -- "I feel like you can't be a genius if you're a finance major". It's not like this was a shot to the heart, but we were more shocked as this was an unwarranted comment. While I understand he was trying to make conversation, we were there to drink beer... not be questioned about our life choices! read more
