    This is a great spot. Lots of parking, and the left side of the building is for brews, and the right side is for wine. Lots of outdoors seating, live music, and a food truck. It was a great vibe and the weather was great. The woman at the wine counter offered great recommendations and we bought a bottle to share with friends. Thank you for your hospitality !

    First time here, and gotta say one of my favorite brewery locations. It has a massive outdoor covered area with a massive are to sit so even with a lot people you don't feel crowded. There was a band playing live music as well. 6 5oz sampler was $20. Not a bad deal. I'd definitely go back even though it's a bit of drive for me.

    Absolutely love this Brewery! Not only is this a little slice of heaven with amazing views, the beers are top notch and staff is off the charts! I love their Lagers & Pilsners and the Seperation Anxiety IPA is always a go to! I also love the diversity of music they play on vinyl! I'm a huge vinyl collector and listen to all genres and I love how you can listen to anything from bluegrass and country to classic rock, jazz, funk, and even hip hop. Definitely one of the more ecelectic and well balanced collections I have seen. The owners treat you like family and are always welcoming. Keep up the great work team and thank you for making it such a memorable experience everytime I visit! Cheers!

    Hubby drinks beer & I drink wine.. So this is the perfect place for us... The staff are very friendly & knowledgeable on both sides... He tried several different beers while o had a glass of Rose.. Cousins Maine lobster truck was there when we were. .. Will definitely go back..

    We love the beer at Berryessa. In particular, the Double Tap 2X IPA is one of our favorites but they are all high quality. This is a wonderful place for a warm afternoon sitting outside, listening to live music, chilling out. There is a winery as well which we have not tried but it's always crowded and people seem to enjoy themselves. The setting is breathtaking, especially at sunset. You could be a million miles away from Northern California so it feels like a vacation every time you go.

    Really cute beer garden area that's spacious and open. You order your drinks at the small shop inside. There are usually food trucks and misters if it's too hot. It was a great spot to stop off at before heading to Laky Berryessa for boating.

    Nice little hidden gem just outside of Winters great place to meet friends family and have a drink and a great food truck and live music. We have come here several times before in the past and this time again after our annual family Alzheimer's walk. It was just a super easy place to find for a beautiful day as it was. It's always great to give back to businesses like this who have amazing alcohol. My fav thing there was the trubble bubble it reminded me a lot of a claw spiked seltzer which is great for me cause I can't have beer cause I'm allergic. And plus the buckhorn food truck was there and I definitely got the tritip loaded fries nope sorry didn't share . Definitely recommend for a lazy day out chat kind day with no essence of time. With music all day and live music after 2-3pm, corn hole all day, hay for kids to climb on, dog friendly and normal has a food truck on site. Super friendly staff and you can also fill your growler too. So check em out on your way to or from the glory hole.

    Great views! The beers were alright I had a flight and I liked maybe 2 out of the 3 beers.. most of them were flat if I'm being honest. Service was okay. There winery has great reds. They have a Greek food truck that was awesome.

    One of my favorite breweries of all time! From their gorgeous location to awesome beer, this place is perfect. Their seating is outdoors and they sometimes has great live music and food trucks. With the vast and gorgeous scenery of Winters, this place is perfect for sunny days. Most of their beers are IPAs and avid IPA lovers are sure to love them. Not being a big fan of IPAs myself, I did enjoy the Mini Separation Anxiety: light, hoppy, and not too bitter. They do have other options that aren't IPAs, but there's not a lot of them. Line for beer can be a little song, so note that the line can split based on what you need. Left is for pints and half pints. Right is for samplers, growlers, taste samples, and questions. Service and crowd is very friendly and makes the place really enjoyable!

    The easiest 5 star review I've ever left. The friendliest…read morepeople you'll ever meet walking into an establishment. The way they take time to think about every single ingredient going into a cocktail or their food offerings. An extremely nice place to take a date, or your family where you can feel relaxed and accepted, yet not lacking in a beautiful atmosphere. I've met some of my closest friends here! My favorite signature cocktail is the mango jalapeño which they thankfully sell in 4 packs and they taste just as good as if they were made fresh. I'm not scared to try drinks made with liquor that I normally wouldn't drink as they are so scientific about the ingredients going into the cocktail that it flows so nicely! They've turned me back onto whiskey just with how delicious it is. Also they kill it with the gin and vodka flavors. 10/10 will always tell my friends and family to visit when they're in town, and if you're a townie and you haven't been here- wtf are ya doin?

    I recently visited Patio29 Spirits Co., and it turned out to be an excellent example of a…read morethoughtfully executed small-batch craft distillery experience. Located in the historic downtown area of Winters, the tasting room blends naturally into the town's relaxed atmosphere while still presenting a polished and professional environment. The space itself is inviting and well-designed, creating a comfortable setting where visitors can slow down, learn about the distillation process, and enjoy the spirits being produced on-site. The moment I walked in, the team welcomed guests warmly and immediately created an environment that felt both educational and social rather than transactional. One of the strengths of Patio29 is the way the staff approach the tasting experience. Rather than simply serving samples, they take time to explain the philosophy behind their distillation methods, ingredient selection, and the development of their spirits. That level of engagement elevates the experience because you begin to appreciate the craftsmanship and intentionality behind each bottle. The conversation naturally flows from the history of the distillery to the production techniques they use, which helps visitors understand how small-batch distillation differs from large commercial operations. The spirits themselves demonstrate strong balance and technical precision. Their vodka stands out for its clean structure and smooth finish, making it enjoyable both neat and as a cocktail base. The gin offers a well-structured botanical profile with bright aromatics and a controlled level of juniper that allows other botanical elements to come forward without overpowering the palate. The cocktail program also deserves recognition because the bartenders clearly understand how to highlight the character of each spirit. Instead of masking the base spirit, the cocktails are constructed to complement and elevate the flavor profile, which is a strong indicator of thoughtful beverage craftsmanship. Another aspect that enhances the experience is the atmosphere. Patio29 manages to create a relaxed social setting that encourages conversation and exploration. It feels like a place where locals gather as much as visitors discovering the town for the first time. The tasting room maintains a balance between professionalism and approachability, making it easy for both experienced spirit enthusiasts and casual visitors to feel comfortable. Overall, Patio29 Spirits Co. delivers a refined yet welcoming craft distillery experience that reflects both technical skill and community-oriented hospitality. The combination of well-executed spirits, knowledgeable staff, and a comfortable environment makes it a destination worth visiting if you are exploring the craft beverage scene in Northern California.

We…read morevisited this place for the first time as part of a birthday party (but it was actually a cover for the birthday celebrant to propose to his girlfriend -- teehee -- which he did, on the second-floor balcony, and our group got to watch and cheer from the ground). It was a cold afternoon/evening in December, but we dressed warmly and stayed by the firepit. There were maybe 4-6 other clusters of people there also, and definitely another birthday party going on because the guests were singing along loudly to a special request playlist that the staff played on the speaker for them. I thought it was a good number of people considering how cold and dark it got. Our group brought a bunch of kids, and they pretty much explored the grounds the whole time -- feeding the animals, making friends with other kids, and having a blast. Food from the food truck was fine, just be careful leaving your food out unattended because some random dog gobbled our burger when we weren't looking. It's a beautiful spot. We should all be so grateful for having access to it, basically for free. Drinks were good. Good vibes. Super relaxing to be out in nature. Friendly staff. As of this review, you can reserve areas for parties/events for free, and you can bring in your own food and drinks, excluding alcohol, of course, since they are a brewery. I'm sure it gets crazy busy during the warmer months, but it is worth a visit even in the cold. Just dress right.

Though near the 80, Ruhstaller Farm is pretty much in the middle of nowhere. There's no conspicuous signage. It's easily possible to drive right by & never know what's here. & yet, the few times I've been here, generally later on a Friday or Saturday night, it's obvious that Ruhstaller Farm is the busiest place for many miles around in any direction. It's somewhat puzzling to me. Add in the idyllic bucolic vibes, & this place feels is a bit surreal to me. There's something about the frolicking farm ambiance here that reminds me of the Aliki Farms skit from the 1st episode Portlandia.* So how do I know about Ruhstaller Farm? A friend I homebrewed with for years lives in Dixon. Being beer nerds enough to brew it ourselves, we'd stumbled across Ruhstaller beers a long time ago. That early stuff was rough. The beers pouring now at Ruhstaller Farm are definitely a drastic improvement. The bar staff has always been friendly. & really, this is a nice place to relax & enjoy a beer. But that's it. I'll come through once in a while & have a beer or 2. I'm not staying. No matter how much anyone might say they'd love me to stay, & I'm absolutely not putting on a frilly dress. *https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=If41cZMBgqA

It's a logistical masterpiece: a brewery and winery on one property, ample parking, a food truck, covered seating, and live music to drown out the chorus of "Are we leaving yet?" I opted for their wine tasting, which I can only describe as a "DIY Guessing Game." A cashier, doubling as a silent sommelier, poured a series of mystery liquids into my glass with the solemnity of a secret agent passing a coded message. What were the notes? The varietal? The tragic backstory of the grapes? The world may never know, as tasting notes were apparently classified information. The tasting is free if you buy a bottle, which is a brilliant strategy. By the end, you're so desperate for a label with information on it, you'll happily pay. It's the perfect spot to bring the family, enjoy the scene, and have a glass of... well, something red.

Not only were the pours were of good size, the wine tasting fee is waived if you purchase a bottle. The difference between purchasing a bottle and the wine flight is less than ten dollars, so it is definitely worth it! Tips for visiting: There is plenty of parking, so don't concerned about that. The food options are pretty limited because they have one food truck, which I believe alternates. We got gyros, which were okay. If you have little ones, I might bring something else for them because the options are limited for them.

Which was why when craft beer boomed everywhere else, I wasn't at all surprised that it was largely absent from Vacaville. & that is also why Solano Brewing Company was such a pleasant discovery for me. On a visit back to the area, a friend I used to homebrew with for years introduced me to an actual craft brewery with, technically, a Vacaville address. While it's a good distance outside of town, it's still close enough to be someplace to go around Vacaville that's more interesting than the town's repetitive corporate chain dining & big box retail. It's a great spot to grab some quality brews. There's plenty of parking. There's inviting spaces, both indoor & outdoor, for sitting & relaxing a while. The outdoor area is quite expansive. The service has been friendly & welcoming. & yeah, I like the beers. For me, Solano Brewing Company is 1 of the better breweries in the Vacaville/ Dixon/ Davis region. So if you're in, around, or near Vacaville looking for a day/ night out to chill & maybe have a beer, consider Solano Brewing Company as an alternative to the ho-hum humdrum predictable complacency of the town's many name recognition chain brands.

I now have so much fun there, I have begun to go at least once a week. First off, the staff is wonderful. I don't know everyone's names, but they are always happy and helpful. Any questions regarding any of the beers or anything else for that matter are promptly answered. If its beer related and you just aren't sure, they happily offer a taster. I find almost all the beers delightful. There's been a few duds, but I like that they are always trying new things. The menu has some consistent favorites, but you'll see new items fairly consistently. I especially enjoy "Hazy on the 80" and the "Scottie Rippen". Inside seating is somewhat limited but it's cozy and there are seats at the bar as well. Outside seating is plentiful and awesome on a beautiful day. Plenty of covered areas as well for the not so pleasant days. Kids and pets are very welcome. There's a playground and grassy area. It's also spacious enough if you just want to be around other adults and not be bothered by all that type of hoopla. There is a rotating carousel of food trucks and live music. Best to check their website calendar to see who is there and when. Plenty of great trucks and wonderful bands from what I've seen thus far. There are also themed events ranging from cornhole tournaments to music bingo. So don't be like me and sit around for years before going. Get off your culo and meet the gang out there. You'll be sure to have a great time!
