The atmosphere is cool, but the beers are terrible. Everything tastes watered down with no carbonation. Great setting. Bad beers. read more

I am surprised that I haven't reviewed this place before as I have been coming here for a few years, almost always to attend some sort of meeting with friends and associates. The food is mixed, sometimes they have had a food truck with pizzas, sometimes nothing (back in the day) and most recently a hot dog cart inside. The dog was pretty good but limited in fixins (no sauerkraut? - See any local grocery store, they have it on the shelf in a jar, the nearest being less than a mile away). I don't drink beer but found something each time I have visited that filled the void, was tasty and served promptly with a smile. The ambiance is always enjoyable, as our group meets in the back room and we certainly appreciate the accommodation! read more

Went here on a late night as we had just finished eating dinner somewhere else but we wanted to keep the drinks flowing. The service was great the young man pouring was super helpful and kind. I am not much of an IPA drinker but he gave me one to try and it was surprisingly not bad at all. The beer was nice and cold. The atmosphere was great even though they were close to closing time. They have a pool table and some couches and even an outdoor area. Which we did not go but I think next time we will for sure be going outside as it looked super cozy and chill. They also have a lot of board games towards the back by the restrooms (which are clean) as well as arcade machines. Would visit again - for simple brews that are cold and a great atmosphere. read more

Contentment Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Modesto, California

If you're looking for a spot that blends great craft beer with serious retro fun, this place nails it. From the moment you walk up to the rainbow-splashed mural outside, you know you're in for something unique. Inside? Even better. The vibe is chill and welcoming, with plenty of seating--from cozy wooden booths to communal tables and bar seating. It's clearly built for hanging out. The beer selection is top-tier; we grabbed a flight and loved the variety--each one had its own character, from crisp and citrusy to deep and malty. They had everything from IPAs to fruitier blends, and all were super fresh. Service was friendly, the environment was clean, and it had that perfect local feel. I'd absolutely come back--next time with more friends and a bigger appetite for pinball. read more

Great brewery with fun and knowledgeable staff. Street parking available and near the brewery. They have several beers that we got to try. The watermelon seltzer is so refreshing and perfect for the hot weather. There are several board games, shuffle boards, arcades, corn hole, frisbee, connect four and more in their outdoor area. The bathrooms are unused and clean. There is a food truck located outside as well. We had a fun time here and definitely want to come back again. read more

Great beer, great people and great community! Come try them out. Lots of variety. Even non alcoholic options, too! The owners and staff are super friendly. They have shuffleboard, pool and an awesome selection of pinball machines! Several craft beers on draft! read more

My first time here today. We tried a west coast IPA and a lighter beer. Both were good. The bartender pouring it was very sweet and friendly. You can tell it's a brewery where there are a ton of regulars and they welcome the newbies. The owner Alex was great! Def a place I want to return to! For a Monday afternoon it was pretty busy. They had pin ball and pool and the outside area looked fun for summer time. read more

First ti Ike visiting, walked in about an hour before closing on a Monday. They were fairly packed and had Bingo going on. The vibes were good, food truck was posted right out front. The beertender was helpful in helping to make recommendations of beers to try. The place cleared out as soon as Bingo ended. We stayed a bit after closing which was scheduled for 9pm. We look forward to coming back and trying different drinks. Give this spot a visit if you're in the area or looking for a chill spot with good drinks. They also had old school pinball games and a pool table with sofas on the side for more comfortable sitting. read more

Im very disappointed. I came from the bay area to see this disgusting stuff. The beer taste very similar. Not enough food options read more

I hesitate to write this, but I just can't help myself. The atmosphere of this place, kid friendly, open, welcoming, this should be the premier craft brewery of Modesto. Unfortunately, and this is coming from a craft beer connoisseur, this beer is unbelievably horrible. I'm talking undrinkable. The beer is flat. The IPA I had was so awful, I literally can't even recollect a worse beer I've tasted. Bro, this is to the owner, no disrespect, how are you a craft brewery and your beer is objectively this bad? There is no way people who know anything about beer are coming here and enjoying these beers. I literally almost puked in my mouth at how badly crafted they are. I'm sorry this is so brutal but somebody needs to say it. Please find a consultant to teach you how to brew beer. Best of luck, I cannot return to this place knowing how subpar the beer is. read more

Awesome place. Great beer. Fantastic staff and energy. Don't pass this place up. The beer is so good. Clearly a lot of thought out into the brews. You will thank me. read more

Great service and great beer selection, met friends there and we all enjoyed live music. Highly recommend!

Super cool spot to hang out at. I would love to come here more but I cannot get over how flat the beer is. Not sure if it's intentional or not but if they added some carbonation to the beer I would be a regular. The flavors are good, a good variety in style is good it just tastes a bit too flat. read more

This was my first time here and I'm mad I didn't know about this place before. I had a wonderful time here with my little family and we all enjoyed it so much. We had no idea they do little events like paint and sips! This place has everything! We came on a Saturday afternoon and played some of the games they had set up like Connect Four. We gots some flights and the beer was to die for. The fruit flavor ones and the sours were amazing. I never had a sour before that was smooth until I came here. The beer was so good I had to order a 32 oz can to go! They also had arcade games against the wall which was awesome! I had to play a couple of games. The bartenders were extremely nice and super helpful when it came to ordering. This place got an instant follow on Instagram and I can't wait to go back to enjoy some good beer. read more

Found this place by accident chasing down a pop-up food truck (Paul's Rustic Oven). Had an Oktoberfest glass poured and it was delicious. Met the owner Alejandro and found him to be very personable, friendly and service oriented. Definitely a place I will return to for a tasty pint and a good time. read more

This place is a hero of fruity beers. The "piña cool lotta" fruit ale is so weird and soooooo good. It's shocking. The strawberry rhubarb fruit pale ale also hits pretty hard. Do yourself a favor and mix them together. read more

Average beer, very chill atmosphere. There isn't always a food truck on site and it's not near any other food options. The staff were very friendly. The areas pretty industrial and not very welcoming. read more

Great atmosphere, great options for activities, great beer and most importantly, great people. Have wanted to stop at this place many times over the last couple of years, but just haven't made it there. Well ended up being able to make it there finally and what a nice surprise, for all of the reasons above. They have an awesome vintage shuffle board and it's so much fun to play. The owner was playing and was very welcoming and friendly. Love supporting these owners on making their dreams come true! Will be back soon and often! read more

We recently have began meeting up with our fellow dog lovers and going to brewery's, 6 people 5 dogs and tots chaos. It was fairly slow as we walked in, then all the sudden it filled up with people wanting drinks. There was only one person available at the bar and she got seriously overwhelmed with orders, mostly people wanting so do the 6 flight beer taster( which is a lot more work than filling one beer). She not only was able to keep up with all The orders, she remained friendly kind and professional. The beer was a"fantastic, and the food truck Mia Yummy Yummy was awesome. Very Dog friendly, great atmosphere and one badass bartender yesenia. . Will be back soon for sure. read more

Great environment. The staff was great and gave us a background of each beer names and how they come up with the names. We had a few tasters of their beer and all of them were great. You can take your dog and they also games while your enjoying their craft beer. Highly recommend! read more

We were having a good time and the owner came to us telling us saying we when being too loud and that we were disturbing other people.

Great prices and entertainment. The Beer was great and tasty. Would be nice to have a chips and dip bar.

This is a great hang. Between the amazing beer they brew and the great staff I love this place. Gotta try the downward dog.

Yummmmmmmm. Having the Apricot IPA & it is very tasty. Recommend! Not even an IPA drinker but love this ipa

Great spot to hang out, try LOCAL, brewed on premisis beer, play games The owner and brewmaster were super nice and gave us the history of their brews and their building. We tried 2 flights (every beer they currently offer plus their homebrewed cream soda and root beer) Our one suggestion would be to put some kind of sandwich board/signage out on Stoddard to advertise this hidden gem. read more

Every time I go here, I always think "why don't I come here more often?" And I go there a lot! Lots of quality beers - the apricot and blood orange IPAs are particularly high quality. Also, the "Her Jacket is in a Storage Unit in Reno" Imperial Stout is excellent. It's in an industrial building and isn't really near anything, escelp for Modesto Junior College's East Campus, but it's worth the visit. I prefer when we could drink indoors, and the last time I was there we had an Irish quartet playing music at one table and a rousing game of Connect Four at another. Meanwhile, three good doggos added to the atmosphere. They've adjusted to CovidWorld as well, with outdoor dining (when allowed) along with a food truck. Be aware during normal times, they don't serve food, but you can have it delivered. read more

Alejandro and Co. are good people. Beer is terrific and so is their beer "garden." They observe Covid regulations when many other local shops do not. That earns my loyalty (plus, you know, the amazing beer). read more

Flight time! Looks like Contentment is off to a good start. Cool space. Variety of games to occupy those who want to stay a while. Nice music and not too loud. Very nice mix of age groups present. Eat first since, for now, they have beer and some nice cracker type snacks. We will be back! read more
