Popped in on a Saturday afternoon. I had the sour. As I'm generally a dark beer guy the rest of…read morethe offerings on tap weren't my cup of tea. The sour was good. The lady at the counter was nice. The service was really quick. I wish they had their current taplist on their website. I might have waited to visit when they had more than one beer I was interested in. It was a bit of a drive for me to get there. They had Locust Vanilla Bean cider on tap, and that made my wife happy.

Over by the bar it's a little bit tight to be able to order if there are multiple people inside there. I did enjoy having to be able to sit down and kinda relax while having a beer. I ordered their off Center healthwise in with her raspberry kind of thing. It was absolutely delicious. I would definitely order that again. The parking is in front of someone's house which felt a little unusual. It was raining and there was quite a lot of big puddles to navigate to get to the garage door. I gave it four stars because I think there is some places to improve. The tables that you sat at feel little sticky, even after they were cleaned. Maybe a better way to advertise their merchandise. It was over in the corner. I only order one beer in that beer is killer so I think their beer is on point for the one I ordered.

Friendly and fun atmosphere, enjoyed talking about and learning more hiking trails and hiking groups from the bartender, she was very helpful. Since I still needed to drive home, I tried one of the wet hop IPAs, with Talus hops. Very tasty, hazy, and drinkable. I ordered another wet hop, a red, and a dark to try at home. Gotta get those rare reds when possible. So if you driving through Gig Harbor, this is one stop I recommend making. Yelping on... Cheers!!

Top Down is our favorite brewery in the Bonney Lake Sumner Puyallup area! The space and the people…read moreare so welcoming and friendly. The beers on offer vary from clean and crisp pilsners and Kölsch to deep and flavorful stouts and IPAs. My favorite things are that they are dog friendly, let you bring in you own food, and have really good tasting beer blends that add extra flavor and options. They also serve beer, have three TVs that are playing the most popular games, and often partner with the community to host events like book club meetups, paint notes, fundraisers, and parties. For those not beer inclined, they have 2-3 wines, local ciders, and house-made seltzers. They are kid friendly too and have various board games to play to keep entertained. Really they have everything to make you feel right at home.

This place nails the laid‑back, open‑air vibe -- the perfect spot to unwind and soak up some PNW sunshine. We came just to enjoy a couple beers and relax for a bit, and it delivered exactly what we were looking for. I tried the Roll in the Hay IPA, and it was spot on: great flavor, crisp, and ice‑cold . A perfect summer IPA that hits all the right notes. The service was fast, and the staff was friendly, which made the whole experience even better. They also have a wood‑fired pizza truck on site. We didn't grab a slice this time, but the wife and I are already planning to try it on our next visit. If you're looking for a place to relax, sip something refreshing, and enjoy the sunshine, McMillin Farm Brewhouse is absolutely worth the stop. .

This brewery is over by Lake Tapps but even though you can't get a view of the lake from where the tasting room is it's still a lot of fun. We went and ordered in a modular structure and then enjoyed our beer outside but with lots and sturdy canopies in case it rained. I had two beers here. One was the Thrasher IPA which had a nice bite to it but nothing too "off the chain". Dark Days was the other beer I had which was a fine brown ale that I ordered which proved to be enjoyable. This brewery is a little way out of Bonney Lake but the outing is worth it!

This is the "good 'ol boys" brewery in town…read more And I say that with 100% positivity. You'll feel like you're at a big rowdy backyard cookout (don't you DARE call it a BBQ unless yer smokin' meats) that you just stumbled into. The man running the taps, who I can only assume is the owner, is boisterous, friendly, and ON TOP OF THINGS. He'll ask you what you normally drink, give you some samples, and hook you up with the right beer. I tried to give him a card and he just said "just let me know how many you've had before you leave, I trust you!". You really feel like you're at some sort of family get together. Oh, and the views of Rainier from the patio are stellar! Unlike almost all other breweries in the PacNW, this one is not stocked chock full of insufferable, apathetic, hipster and post-hipster types. The crowd here is largely blue collar: truckers and farmers, Carhart and coveralls, construction workers and men-at-work signs. Which, again, is refreshing for a brewery. Beer is for everyone, not just beardos at coffeeshops with macbook pros that "work in tech". My only qualm is that I feel like the beer is just OK. It wasn't bad or anything, but it also didn't blow me away. Most of the beers were a little too much on the sweet and malty side (even the IPA) for what I usually like to drink. (which is stuff that is really pale, dry, and bright) The irony of my sounding like one of those disaffected beer bro stereotypes I just criticized earlier in the review is not lost on me though so...take what I say with a grain of malted grain.

This was one of two really good breweries I visited in Buckley. Like a lot of breweries I've been…read moreto, Elk Head is tucked away in a industrial/work shop location, just off the main highway running through town. I don't know if it's there all the time, but when I stopped in, there's a Mexican food truck in the front parking lot. Once you've seen it it not hard to miss, as it's the only shop with all the doors wide open and a good sized covered patio area. Walking through the entrance, the decor stands out right away, growler jugs, hanging from the ceiling from breweries from all over the country, along with a lot of cool animal wood sculptures and memorabilia for honoring Veterans and history. I believe the bar tender was also the owner or one of them? Very friendly and helpful with the selections. Taking time to answer questions, even on a surprisingly busy Thursday afternoon. Lots of seating throughout the inside and on the patio area. They specialize in unfiltered brews, which I like, as it gives a full flavor to most beers you may not get, if they're over filtered, another one of those balancing acts that those workers of brewing magic deal with. I started off with a Amber lager, full tasting with the crispness of a lager, a flavorful change from the usual amber ales. The place had a cool old dudes vibes due to all the memorabilia and the old van in the shop, but definitely wasn't just an old dudes place, as a few of the younger crowd was enjoying a brew while working remote. Plan on a return trip on a weekend to check out the weekend vibe, try the food truck, and more of their tasty unfiltered beers. I also tried their Red Ale, which was also robustly flavored and went down smoothly. Gotta love those reds! A fun stop while passing through or coming back from some of the beautiful hikes in the area. Definitely have their own style and niche well done. Happy Yelping and Cheers!
