After having a DeadBeach hef at Kaedama, we decided to check out the brewery the one night we were free in EP. DB is only open two days a week, and we were downtown to see the Nutcracker at the Plaza Theatre on Saturday night. We walked over to the brewery after strolling through the winterfest in San Jacinto Plaza. Initially, I was not sure about staying. The bar entry was completely packed, and the patio was also packed with live music and lots of people. Eric R. and I were lucky enough to find a spot at the bar when we went back to the front. We ordered a flight (4 tasters for $9). We chose the Bonnie Brown (amber), Hef (we knew it was good!), 5 points amber (apricot ale), and Yippee-Ki-Yay (winter warmer). To be honest, ALL of the beers we had were great. The Yippee-ki-yay was so spiced it was almost like a dessert - and it is 10% abv so I gave most to Eric R. We actually ended up getting pints of the Bonnie Brown and the 5 Points Amber after, and one was on the house as the clocked neared midnight and Eric R. celebrated his birthday. The bartender was very friendly and married to the brewer. She told us how Big Bend Brewing was closing down and that her husband used to be its brewer, so they came from Alpine. We also had interesting conversations with random people waiting to order around us at the bar. Eric R. ordered the pretzels and beer cheese as a snack and then the in the clouds dessert (which turned out to be a blueberry marshmallow panini, definitely a new experience)! The beer is really good, so try to come here for a flight or grab a pint around EP at the restaurants that have DB on draft! read more

I've been waiting for about half a year to be able to check this place out. It's located downtown El Paso, and has parking on site and street parking available. The decor and atmosphere is renovated, with cultural art and it's overall a fun place to hang out in. There's music playing and sports on TV. I enjoyed their draft beer faucets and taps, each an individual skeleton of some sort. This establishment also serves food. Got a flight with 4 beers: DeadBeach ipa Best on the list. I'm a hoppy drinker so I personally think this beer could be a bit more hoppier but as Other drinkers review: it's a classic tasting ipa. 6.5% abv, tasty: as a desert beer drinker doesn't want to be dried out DeadBeach lager southwest lager 4.5% abv tasty. Second fave on the list 915 Pale Classic American pale ale Guava Jelly Tropical stout 4.3% abv not as sweet as one would expect, still sour. Awesome for those hot days. **They didn't have much ipas to select from as they rolled out their winter menu. So, I'll have to come back later when they do to review their beers again. read more

Food and drink(35% weight factor, 2.0 stars) - Food was bad, perhaps this was an off day, there are better places in El Paso to eat. The beer was disappointing, the samplers we had covered a wide spectrum, was hoping to find a gem in the lot...I did not (0.70 total stars). Hospitality and convenience (25% weight factor, 3.0 stars)-The staff was nice and friendly, we were seated fairly quick, however using your credit card is no-no. There is a convenience fee when using a credit card, it would have been nice if they had told me beforehand or perhaps a sign posted at the entrance (0.75 total stars). Price (20% weight factor, 2.0 stars)-Expensive for the type of food we ate (food truck chic), look at the menu beforehand (0.40 total stars). Ambiance (15% weight factor, 2.5 stars)-It looks nice from the outside, but the layout was odd. Half of the restaurant is very nice, the other half seems like they just wanted to add more seating area (0.38 total stars). Parking (5% weight factor, 4.0 stars)- The street has plenty of parking (0.20 total stars). Overall, 2.43 stars rounded down to 2.0 stars, since yelp doe not allow fractions in the overall score. This place looked like it had potential, the food was bland, the beer was definitely lacking, the credit card convenience fee was annoying. Not sure I will go back again. read more

Thank you Patrick for the brewery tour. We all enjoyed seeing the systems there. It's quite upscale. I was so impressed with how clean and sterile everything looked too. The beers were all so good. read more

I am glad to endorse this home grown brewery that showcases hard work, quality, and vision. For years this group has produced great quality craft beer. They have embraced their strengths and have produced a beverage that is proudly served across our great city of El Paso. Chihuahefe is a must try and then you can declare your own favorite. For now, bravo DBB! read more

Great beer and food, but the staff was even better! We will be back next time we are in El Paso. Best Brewery we visited on our trip!

A MUST SEE BREWERY FOR ALL YOU CRAFT BEER FANS! This place has a creative vibe and the beer is delicious. They also have amazing food from their foot truck. I would totally go back here in the future when I'm in the area again. read more

We were just visiting and we're invited to their party for the last night at the downtown location. Really nice people and very good beer. Glad they are growing and succeeding. Been there and got the T-shirt!! read more

I was excited about checking out the new location so I went last weekend. I ordered the chilaquiles and they were so spicy my friend and I had to send them back. They were made out of tortilla strips. Very weird. Ordered the hefe and it was alright. Disappointing. read more

Cool environment. Staff was friendly. Food was okay. Beer was okay too. My favorite beer was definitely the Hefe. Truffle fries and fried pickles weren't anything special. Tried the "That's my jam" burger and it was okay too. The place is a good location in order to enjoy before a Chihuahuas baseball game. read more

I so badly want to love this place, and if they make some changes, I will gladly change this review, but they need to improve. Beer (Just OK): Ok, not great. They have light styles and dark styles, but few IPAs or Pale Ales. Their Deadbeach IPA is too malty and slightly coppery for me. It's ok, though but they need a hazy or and/or a session and/or a brut. Their lager and hef are serviceable, but both are somewhat sour and I'm not sure that's intentional. Stouts and porters are fine. Nothing to write home about. Food (Not Great): So much promise, but not great. Most things are WAY too spicy for an average palette. I was so excited for the pulled pork baked potato, but the cheese sauce was so spicy, it was inedible. Same w/ the meat in the chorizo brunch tacos. My kid even hated the burger because somehow, even the party was spicy. If they adjusted the heat, the bbq would be good! Every time I have been, the food isn't warm enough. This could be a service issue though. Ambiance (Great and Terrible):: Back patio is one of the absolute best outdoor spaces in El Paso. Very cool, very nice, and also comfortable. The inside feels like a crappy dive bar. Loud, dark and dirty - just not great. Service (Awful): I know every place is struggling right now so this could change, but the service has been very slow, somewhat aloof, and just don't seem super interested in anything but tips. This can change and I hope it does. Overall: This place could be truly great. And I really want it to be. I hope they take a long look at things and work to improve. If they do, I'll drive across town at least once a week and take business clients. Rooting for you! read more

We were excited to see that DeadBeach was offering food again so my wife and I made a point to order some pretzels and the Banh Mi sandwich. We had eaten there before so we were excited to try their take out but it was very disappointing. The pretzels were half soft and half rock hard and pretty much inedible. The spicy fries that came with the sandwich were soggy and they tasted like someone just dumped some cayenne on them after they were in the styrofoam. I'm not sure if we will give them another shot but my wife was really excited to try warm soft pretzels with cheese dip during the pandemic, but what we got was extremely disappointing and not worth the drive. read more

The chef, Eric & our server were extremely attentive to my gluten allergy. Eric pan fried the tostadas rather than the deep frier which would have presented cross contamination. Service gets 5 stars, and food low as there was only one menu item I could have. My friend loved her burger & beer. read more

I'm not a big beer fan but the food smelled great so I went with a friend. I have to say I had a crazy-good sandwich (the Patty and Selma) and I got one of the more fruity beers that I liked a great deal, the "Heartbreaker" I think. Fun atmosphere with great music too. read more

Wow! Best brewery in El Paso hands down. What's amazing is the different types of beers they have. They all have an El Paso touch which makes them extra delicious! I highly suggest their abuelita beer and their chuco red beer...you're going to love them! This is the perfect sundaydowntown brunch spot too!! read more

This little brewery is pretty cool. I feel it belongs in Albuqerque...lol but El Paso has come a long way since I lived there. The service is top notch , unlike in Albuqerque Dead Beach makes it a priority and does not leave patrons to work for a beer. These folks thrive in customer service!!! Albuqerque should take a page from this place , servers actually greet you and are friendly and service oriented. Here your lucky to get a pour without having to either get up and get your own or just go somewhere else. Few breweries have a concept that's service oriented, this one does. Only suggestion I have is to improve the food menu, 10$ for a tiny personal pizza is not a good thing! I feel if the food was better there would be more buy in. Cheers to Dead Beach !!!! read more

First time there and I had the BEST experience. The service was top notch, peanut beer was outstanding and the ambience perfect! Shout out to Maria the lead server just wow is all I can say. Oh and the food was mouthwatering. Do yourself a favor and head over there. read more

Stunning place! The building itself is so beautiful. Lots of small details to look out for. Food was so delicious. Recommend the that's my jam burger. I got a side of corn in a cup for just $3, definitely worth it. Service was amazing. Our server Ari was super friendly and attentive. Made my family and I feel welcomed and happy. Will be going back soon! read more

Tried this place out on a whim and i absolutely loved it!! It has a smaller area near the bar with tables surrounding it, but the outside was my favorite. They had heat lamps above the tables to keep warm during the cold El Paso nights. It was a crazy thought to feel so warm when the patio area was outside!! Had run for the porter, it was tasty. Also tried the blonde/hefe, i really enjoyed that one. Ordered the beer chicken with cheese quesadillas. It was ok, just something to munch on while having some drinks. I was pretty hungry so i wish i would have eaten somewhere else beforehand. Had an awesome steampunk vibe. Can't wait to come back. read more

Revisited DeadBeach Brewery after two years. Beers are very amazing and love that they have options for everyone who might not like beer. Only reason I am giving it 3 stars is because the service and food weren't really up to par. Our server Kim was very nice but not attentive. Waited about 40 minutes for our food and once we received our food it came out cold. We were missing some items that we had ordered but weren't able to let the waitress know since we didn't see her for a while. As a table full of servers we tried to understand and put ourselves in her shoes but it was quite ridiculous. Had asked several times for a spoon for a soup and never received it as well. After we finished and received the checks it was all over the place and were still charged for the items we did not receive. Took our waitress about 30 minutes to fully cash out our table and many trips back and forth. Will definitely go back for the beers but I'm not sure to eat unfortunately. read more

Used to love this place. beer is great however, they are very unorganized. 40 minute wait to have a beer is ridiculous. on top of that there was staff letting their friends cut in front of all the other people that were waiting for a table for 40 + minutes. management really needs to step it up and make this place what it used to be in the old location. super disappointed. places like this make it very difficult to support local businesses. read more

Failure and Success #2020 I want to leave more stars because the beer was really good but the guy completely ducked up my growler. I had the 'no mames whey' which is not your typical IPA, it's fruit forward and not as heavy on the bitter back of tongue sip and absolutely delicious. I also ordered the Chi-hua-hefe my Mom approved, I'll taste at a later date. I'm super sad because the homeboy that poured my beer broke my growler. :( (He said he didn't active my CO2 although my pressure gauge said otherwise) When I had to replace the cartridge every piece fell apart and now I'm sad because I can't get anymore beer until I replace $84 in parts. It's also partially my fault for trusting that the brewery boy could handle my equipment. I'll still be back, I just won't take the proper equipment, I'll stick to flat glass... read more

Always good beer and food and helpful friendly staff. Can't wait for January 2nd and the opening of the new location.

Stopped in for the local brews. I tried nearly all of them and all were really good. Obviously some better than others. I recommend the Peanut Butter and Jealous and the Double Stuffed. They are different and you won't be disappointed. They also have some bar food. I tried the tacos and they were fantastic. I had both the brisket and spicy beef. Both were very good but I think the brisket was better. My bartender was very friendly and helpful. She recommends the fish tacos. I'll try them next time and report. An excellent experience. Can't wait for my next visit! read more

Friendly staff. Let me taste test a few beers when i was trying to decide. I settled on the stout which is amazing and the brisket tacos. Plenty of meat and the sauce was wonderfully spicy. Late lunch in the afternoon so wasn't busy and I was able to plug in and get some work done while enjoyed my beer and meal. Bartender even refilled my water for me without me asking. Excellent service! read more

Service: great. No complaints Food: the ribs were decent. Kinda dry. The brisket was amazing. The corn was weird I didn't like it at all. It was soaking in water. Beer: pretty good I got the raspberry chocolate and a horchata beer. The raspberry was tart and the chocolate surprised you at the end. The horchata beer was a sour type it was light and crisp without any horchata taste which was nice because most horchata beers are gross The vibe: was good minus the smoking outside. Some dude was blowing smoke completely in my face/hair. They had nice heating lamp and plenty of room to sit read more
