Great place to grab a beer. It's nice and big so you don't have to worry about finding a spot to relax. The bartenders are friendly and super knowledgeable. The nice part of this place is you can bring in food from the outside. Run next door and get pizza from Windy Pie and enjoy some brews. read more

Holy Mountain Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Tables are spaced a good distance apart with a couple space heaters down the middle of the center. Beer here is amazing. Was 10 minutes late and got a warning from staff that usually late arrivals get canceled. Tried to call and got a robo loop but was told you can reach them by email. They still seated us. read more

Great brewery fantastic prices. The Whitewood -Imperial Winter Switchel cider was delicious - very complex, tangy and not at all too sweet. One note, bar was super cold. It was about 45 outside and I wonder if the high ceilings make it expensive to heat. read more

Holy Mountain Brewing - The Whitewood Imperial Winter Switchel is fantastic! It's like the best rosé in the world. - Breweries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I used to go here every Friday for a half pint or two. Holy Mountain is especially cool because they have something new almost every week and there were a few femme parenting folk who were especially knowledgeable about the brew process. Honestly I had to stop going because the men who work here are either disrespectful or consistently oblivious. There was one incident in particular where I stood in at the checkout waiting to get someone's attention and I got a few heya but nobody asked me what I wanted until some folks who appeared to be older stood behind me. Even then the dude behind the counter asked them what they wanted before me. This is pretty disappoint, I'm 23 years old with a valid ID and had always tipped so it hurts to just be blown off like that. I decided I like going to Cloudburst a lot more, they're just a lot nicer to me there. I do want to particularly shout out the femmes who work here though. They have always been kind and have spoken to a brew in a way I've never seen matched by anybody talking about any food or bev. The beer is also really good here... read more

Stopped by Holy Mountain after a long hike from discovery park. The inside is very brightly lit with ambient light, super clean and modern looking. Staff greeted us as we walked in even while it was super busy. Was able to grab a table and a bartender promptly came over with a draft list. I'm not a huge saison/sours guy, but the bartender was able to answer my questions and even make comparisons to the 4hands that are brewed in Saint Louis. I had the Ships Passing, it was sour yet very refreshing. Pretty good prices too for a large glass. Would come again to try the other beers! read more

If you are into beer & find yourself within a 24 hour drive to Seattle, you HAVE TO COME HERE!!! One of the best sour / wild ale breweries in the nation! These guys do it right ... beer geeks, you owe yourself a visit to this joint. Minimalist decor ... clean white lines ... really cool. Usually 11+ taps ... full pours about $5/$6 ... half pours $3/&4. Lots of cool shirts. Snacks available, but bring your own food ... perhaps a nice greasy Dick(s) :) If you love beer & take it seriously #beergeek ... this place is an absolute must!!! read more

I was really looking forward to this place on my Seattle trip and they did not disappoint! I tried 8 of their brews and they were all excellent. My favorites were the saisons. Demonteller in particular is just fucking incredible. The taproom is pretty barebones decor-wise, but I actually like that. They were blasting metal during my two visits, which was awesome. The staff was great both times. They had a whole bunch of really badass shirts and merch, which is refreshing considering how butt-ugly a lot of the brewery apparel out there is. I love this place, just wish I could get their beer in Texas! read more

Holy Mountain Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Beer is good not great. I think there's better overall breweries in the city. HM seems to focus too much energy on crazy barrel-aged stuff that's trendy in the beer world these days, so if that's what you're into it's worth checking out. It gets annoyingly busy unless you're there for the first few hours after they open. The staff is the main reason I'm giving two stars. Ok, we get it guys, you work at one of the coolest breweries in the city right now, that doesn't give you the right to act cooler than anyone. You can stand and wait to order a beer for way too long while the bartenders chat with their friends (while seeing you're waiting and still not helping you) or fiddle with trivial things behind the bar. I like coming here but only seldom because it seems every time I do I get overly annoyed at something. read more

We drove right by it at first, a little hidden. You kind of feel like you are in the back of an IKEA warehouse. The train goes by right behind the brewery, too bad kids can't come they would love that! :) Beers were all good (and unique!), though none of them were really my style. 100% worth a stop though. read more

Excellent, well crafted beer. Usually there are hits and misses when i go to a brewery, but I can honestly say this place lived up to they hype. read more

I usually go here for a growler run Beers are highly rated Kiln and Cone is a very good pale ale Usually crowded specially during bottle release Nice place, ample parking at the side of the building read more

Definitely my favorite brewery in Seattle. Knowledgeable bar staff, awesome interesting brews always rotating. I usually don't like saisons, but their saisons are easily some of my favorite beers around. Always doing interesting stuff in bourbon barrels and the three fates pilsner is the best pilsner I've ever had. Just really good beer down by the train tracks read more

Holy Mountain Brewing - Remnant. hoppy Brett saison brewed with mosaic bract - Breweries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Best beer in Seattle. Barel Aging program is on fire. Hoppy Pilsners. Clean ipas. The aesthetic in this place is amazing. Great staff. Thank you Holy Mountain. read more

Best sour beer in Seattle. Great funky beer list. You know it's something special when they have DE GARDE on their guest list and people are still ordering the house beers! Major props to this place. No frills, hard to find, white walls and a little sterile, but the beers make up for it. Wow. read more

My girlfriend and I love good beer, and when we travel, we have a specific way of finding the best beers we can find in a new area. First, we do our research ahead of time (admittedly, she does most of the work there). Then we go to those places when we get there. And when we get to the best breweries and bottle shops we can find, we ask the brewers and bartenders and clerks where else we should go. Then we go to those places and pump them for information. When we got to Seattle and started asking the knowledgeable people behind the beer counters where we should go, the first thing that every single one of them said was "Have you been to Holy Mountain yet?" They were right. Holy jeez, such good sours. Such good Belgian-style beers. And so many things that were perfectly dry-hopped, even those that you wouldn't expect to be finished off that way. And all of their guest taps were perfectly chosen, as well. Yes. Go to Holy Mountain. Yes. read more

Talk about complex. The beers at Holy Mountain are complex with a variety of tastes and smells to light up your palate. Such a great Seattle vibe at this brewery out between Queen Anne and Ballard located at Interbay. The train runs right behind the brewery for an awesome experience, especially when the back is opened up on those beautiful summer days. Beers here are a little pricey but could be worth it depending on what you like. Everything is a la carte including the tastings. There is a spot when you enter to put your bike if you are biking, but parking is quite limited. read more

Great Merch, knowledgeable and friendly staff, open, clean, and the beer selection was varied and delicious. My takeaway favorite is the Ron Hawaii American IPA, but all beers had a nice, cleanly finished complexity to them. Sitting back with 6 friends, a pie from Windy City pies next door, and a flight was a perfect way to spend the rainy Afternoon. My only wish is that there was a little something more to either look at (like a blown-up canvas of their awesome artwork), or do, like some indoor cornhole in the corner, but this is a great spot to relax and have some seriously solid beers. read more

Californian that was diggin this spot! In the cuts of Queen Anne. Cool industrial interior ambiance with some catchy titled brews. I went with the Plague of Angels and the title was quite fitting. Was bold, tasty and tasted like it could plague a pack of angels. Lol. Another huge plus was the played metal and hardcore music inside the spot. Big credit to that! Support metal / hardcore! read more

This brewery is fantastic! They have a bunch of really great barrel aged beers and even the non barrel aged varieties are great. The only downside is that the space it's in tends to bottleneck during events - but they do the best they can with it. read more

Staff is knowledgeable, friendly and awesome to chat with (when they have time, tend to be busy in a good way) Don't go in and ask for the strongest thing on tap, seriously, ask for flavor or uniqueness. This place takes pride in their craft and if you wanna get blacked out go find a dive. The place has a really lit, clean feel. Great place to sit and chat with company. All the mech is pretty nice too. read more

Really solid brewery in Interbay. No year-round beers, so there's always something new to try. Parking on the gravel road along the railroad tracks in the back. Tip: if death metal isn't your scene, stay away on big release days. The first time I visited was two years ago on one of these days, and that just isn't my scene. I never went back until today, and it's a such a different vibe. If that is your scene, know that they've got you covered. read more

We have been back to Holy Mountain a couple of times since my last review. Every visit except the most recent was enjoyable. The issue/complaint with our most recent visit was the music. It has horrible death metal that everyone except the bar keep seemed to be annoyed over. It was impossible to chill and drink beer while it was playing. It played for the entire 45 min we were there. read more

Beer and service were great. The problem was the insanely loud heavy metal music playing. Didn't fit the vibe at all, and I couldn't hear anything. read more

Location couldn't be any more beautiful, right in Interbay where you can catch a glimpse of the cruise ships and the gorgeous water. Holy Mountain is quite a sterile looking environment: everything is bright white, functional, and the service is efficient without being overbearing or scary. Both my gracious West Seattle host and I opted for two half pours (you can't get tasters, so that was it). Mine were the citra pale ale and an IPA... nothing too memorable, especially for my GWSH. It was kind of a struggle to sip down the last bits, but we knew we had quite a drive home ahead of us and we'd just sauntered in from the distillery next door, so we just kinda put up with it for the time being. Absolutely nothing remarkable about the beer -- decent, but not my style -- but the place is pretty awesome. A-OK! read more

Excellent brewery. Great rotating menu of beers, always playing sick music, classic minimalist interior design with lots of varied seating options. And an incredibly kind and helpful staff! I love coming here when I'm in the area. Also love that it's right by the train tracks in the back. Sometimes they keep the back door open so you feel a refreshing breeze and can watch the trains go by. :) I don't know what else you could ask for while enjoying a beer. read more

The beers here are just well-executed, plain and simple. I had tasters (served in half sizes, about 4oz) of Kiln & Cone, a classic, well-balanced Pale Ale; Dawnbringer, a brand new Pale Ale brewed with fewer bittering hops and a pilsner malt that gave it a creamy mouthfeel and beautifully sweet balance; and the Brett Pale Ale, which wasn't overpowering, but tart enough to be interesting. They offer growler fills on several of their tap options and had a local cider on tap for non-beer drinkers (as well as a few other drink options like sparkling water and maybe a soda or two). The interior is roomy with enough seating for small and large groups. Great place to check out a well-brewed beer and hang out with friends. read more

If you are a reader of my reviews you will know that I always love visiting breweries wherever I go. I have been doing this for a long long time now. I have been a Yelper now for just over 6 years and as more and more people are writing reviews my brewery visiting has become focused more on newer breweries. Those that don't have 100's or 1000's of reviews. It was with that in mind that I found Holy Mountain. Actually that is a lie. We were driving along Elliott Ave one day heading somewhere else and I happened to see Holy Mountain out of the corner of my eye. When I did a search for it I saw that it was fairly new and I also knew it was walkable from my friends apartment. Done and done. I came here on a sunny Monday afternoon. Was quite surprised to see that the place was busy. I brought my book and was just looking to enjoy some good beer with said book while passing the time and waiting for my friends to finish with their workday. Walked in and was immediately welcomed. I took a seat toward the back of the establishment and was handed a beer menu. I now understand the power of the half pour, but more on that in a bit. On this day the full pours of beer (I think they are 13 oz) ranged from $4-$6. Half pours (6 oz if memory serves me right) were $2-$3. I started out with the Kiln & Cone (normally $4 for a full, but on this day it was on special for $3 which I didn't realize until after I ordered it) which is an American Pale Ale. At 5.2% ABV this could be a good sessionable ale, but it is right there on the cusp of not being sessionable. It was a lovely beer for a warm and sunny day. Back to the half pours. I knew I wanted to try more of their beers, but I was starting to get a bit of a buzz (no need to worry as I was walking home). That is where the half pour becomes your best friend. For $2 I had a half pour of The Arrow which is their Tart Farmhouse Ale. I am a fan of tart beers. Not for everyone, but certainly for me. At 3.5% ABV this was a very easy one to drink. That is, if you like tarts. I was happy I got to try another one of their beers without having to get another full pour. The place is very clean. Lots of white, lots of wood and good light from the open garage door. I can understand why people like this brewery. read more

Top notch brewery with great selection of wonderful beers. A Mecca for many across the country!!!

Nice brewery! Clean, good beer, not pretentious in a fancy way or pretending to be dive-cool if you know what I mean.

One of the best breweries in Seattle, and definitely a place to visit for beer lovers. A wonderful wide open space. Definitely take the back entrance with the railroads and water. Their farmhouse beers are absolutely incredible, but they also had on an incredible witbier and other accessible brews on tap for those a bit less ambitious with craft. read more

As much as I want to complain about having to wait in line for their beer...it really is worth it. They're one of the best breweries for sours/wild ales in Seattle, possibly even in the NW as a whole. They've figured out how to make their beers quite the commodity. I like that they're not annoying with their marketing. They have a great tap selection and a cool, hipster, beer snob vibe. Yep, the beer snob vibe is a good thing. Friendly people and the staff will be nice to you even if you're not a beer snob yet. read more

You guys, this is my 800th review and I wanted it to be a good one! I had to pick Holy Mountain Brewing to award this honor and 5-star review. The minute I walked into Holy Mountain it was just like whoa, this place has an AMAZING aesthetic. White walls, minimal bare wood, and some hints of metal. The space is open, clean, and feels comforting in that minimalist-this-place-looks-like-it-just-came-out-of-a-magazine way. It's not all looks, the beers here are fantastic. As someone who used to regularly enjoy Russian River and currently imbibes on Cascade I have to say their sours and belgian-style ales are pretty good. The Third Nail, specifically, was well-balanced but still tasted of a wine barrel-aged beer. Their traditional styles were also impressive, with my favorite being both the Kiln & Cone with its delicious dry-hopped flavor and the Watchman's House, a malty steam beer. They do not do 'samplers' but do half pours, which are actually perfect for enjoying their delicious beers. After this visit I now have my eye out here in PDX for these beers. Holy Mountain is a must if you wish to appease your eyes and your tongue. They are definitely my new favorite Seattle brewery. read more

Holy Mountain is a true blessing upon Seattle's beer scene. Adam and Colin took their time perfecting their recipes, building out a fantastic space in Interbay on their own, and hiring a great staff to run it. Truly a golden example of how to run a brewery well, or any new business for that matter. And as if that weren't enough, their beer is almost without peer in Seattle. No one else makes oak aged lagers or like 10 different varieties of saisons. In a market truly over saturated by IPAs, Holy Mountain stands tall and delivers variety and quality. The King's Head with coffee on nitro is easily a top 5 Seattle beer for me already. Bend the knee, folks. read more

Good but not great, Large drinking room next to the rail yards. This place is a bit out of the way from downtown, in fact most of the breweries were spread out. Worth a stop, but don't expect to be blown away read more

My second review Still a great brewery, definitely one of the top players in Seattle. I wish they allowed dogs, I would be here more often.

The only brewery of the 15+ we've been to in Seattle that doesn't allow children or pets. The ambience is cold and sterile.
