After a day of kayaking on the lake my fellow camper friends and I stopped in here for a beer. This is the only other brewery I have been to in the area north of Bishop. It's a nice spot with some food trucks in case you're feeling peckish. I had a porter and it was fantastic! The place is small but it was a beautiful fall day. Lots of outdoor seating! read more

Was doing the June lake loop and stumbled upon the brewery. They have a good selection of beers on tap. I ordered the Hellraiser Kolsch which I really liked. Ordered a 4 pack to go as well. There are a few tents with picnic tables and some yard games. The atmosphere is very casual and relaxing. There is a food truck next door which is the food option and is good. Would recommend coming here if in the area. read more

Delicious beer and a really cool seeming place. The food nearby was also good and the staff here was fun and friendly. It felt very easy going and relaxed, inside the wood and the patches all over the wall make it feel campy and kitsch. There is a lot of local flavor here too, you can find interesting things on the bulletin board. I do wish they had a loyalty program and they were out of the size of merchandise we wanted. Hope we come back soon! Thank you! read more

Stopped by for beer and lunch driving up the 395. Beautiful day in December with a good crowd enjoying the mild weather on the patio. There is indoor seating when the weather is not as favorable. Both beers were very good, JLB is a known for decent beer. What surprised me was the food truck, it was absolutely amazing. I went with a carne asada quesadilla that was amazing. Everything on the menu and other people's plates looked great as well. Highly recommend the short diversion to June Lake, 2 miles, for beer and bites. In fact it's now on my list for a couple of days over the summer. Cheers read more

Great spot in June lake for a drink. My go to is the Peach Hop Water (N/A) and it's definitely one of the better hop waters out there. There is plenty of space outside with shaded covers so easy to find a spot midday. Service is friendly and recommended to come by when in town. Unfortunately they do not allow dogs. read more

The vibes of this place is fun for a small town vibe. The server was super sweet and helpful when ordering. There is very little seating which was hard as we were a group of 8 so we just had to stand around outside in the cold. The lager was your traditional lager but tasted more bitter than others I've had. read more

What a cool place! A short walk from where we are camped, Golden Pine RV Park... They offer a great selection of their award winning beers! We had the Hockey Fight IPA and the Deer Beer Brown Ale both are awesome! Very friendly and helpful staff! Loved the suggestions! Cool vibe, music cranked and fun decor outside like Adirondack chairs made out of skis, lift chairs to sit in and even a dead gondola outside haha! Theres inside seating as well as bar seating. There's also a large shaded area of picnic tables outside and their on site food truck "La Parilla" has killer food! They seem to be a staple in this small community and I definitely plan to come back before we head home! Highly recommend! Locals and visitors! Enjoy!! read more

June Lake Brewing - Chicken Mole' Enchiladas - Breweries Near Me - June Lake, California

Best brewery in June Lake (not sure there are any others), but still the honors are there and worth a visit if you are visiting the Mammoth Mountain area. And this is coming from a craft beer fan. We stopped here after a fall hike and were not disappointed. I have had their beer and thought it was pretty good, so worth coming to the tap room to try out some others. They have some flavorful IPAs with fun names (Dipsh!t Dragon or Ninja Turtle. Hockey Fight and Juiced Marmont were once I tried off mountain). They have inside and outside patio seating and normally have a food truck cooking up something good. Parking can be difficult but don't give up, it's worth it read more

June Lake Brewing is such a great brewery, honestly one of my favorites given the location, selection of beers and staff friendliness. My friend Katie has been representing this brewery for years and when I came with her this time around I quickly understood why it was one of her favorites. We spent everyday here and I honestly can't wait to come back again. June Lake Brewing is the only brewery in town and also the only non-cocktails based spot to grab a beer or a cider. It's in walking distance from any of the motels downtown so easy to get to. It's a little tucked away off the main road but there are plenty of signs to find them and if you ask around everyone knows where it is. An indoor / outdoor concept brewery. Indoor is smaller but it'll still fit a good amount of people with an L shaped high top bar and a few tables inside. Outside there are a bunch of picnic tables and also some heaters for when it gets cold. The majority of people sit outside as it's just so beautiful. Dogs are welcome outside near the picnic benches. Inside there are two individual bathrooms but I didn't scope them out. The staff here are so welcoming and friendly. Coming here over the course of two days we really got to meet most of the staff and everyone was so nice and welcoming. I know dealing with tourists can sometimes get a little annoying but there wasn't any of that attitude here. They are grateful for all of their customers and instantly make you feel super welcome. Everyone was friendly, fast and knowledgeable around the beers. 5/5 for the vibes! Prices are extremely reasonable and flights are $12, those are fun and I did a few to get to try the majority of their drinks. They have live music currently on Saturdays, bingo on Sundays and trivia on Wednesday. It was nice hearing some live music when we were there. They don't have their own food here but there is a food truck parked outside that we frequented a good amount. Serving up classics, Mexican staples and desserts it's much needed when you find yourself here sipping beers for hours like we did. My ranking from most favorite to least favorite (but still liked) of the beers/drinks I tried would be: FAVS! 1. What the fruit kettle sour 2. Oishii Japanese lager 3. Hellraiser Kolsch Honorable mentions in order 4. Bang Sauce Cider 5. Lager for Jogger 6. Hockey Fight IPA read more

Great hidden gem in the town. Nice outdoor space to bring the kids and dog. Friendly service and good cold fresh beer. Food is separate and available from the food truck onsite and is decent. read more

Service and drinks are great. Vibe is chill. We like it here. Seating is very limited. If they had more outdoor seating and covered seating that would make this place perfect!! We came and it was very sunny and the sun was blasting us. read more

June Lake Brewing - Outside of bar area - Breweries Near Me - June Lake, California

Why not dog friendly! Everywhere else is dog friendly. They have a huge outdoor space but service dogs only! Not a fan!

Usually love coming here for drinks and food, but the atmosphere was ruined by extremely loud hardcore/death metal. It completely killed the vibe and made it hard to enjoy being there. Heard multiple other guests mentioning it too. Great place otherwise, but the music choice felt really off for the setting. read more

Love this place! Great people, beer!! Tara was awesome!! Explained beers to me. Love the knowledge about beers!! Good to know she loves the Raiders too!! read more

Came here to get beers after a hike. I forgot my ID in the car so ran back to grab it when they asked me too. They ended up giving me the beer for free! Super nice people, and the beer is good especially on a hot day. read more

June Lake Brewing - Deer Beer Brown Ale - Breweries Near Me - June Lake, California

We came to the June Lake Brewery after hiking to get some refreshments. Although I am not a beer drinker, I enjoyed the hard seltzer mixed with "what the fruit Kettle Sour". The Kettle Sour was too sour by itself. When it is mixed with the hard seltzer, it was just the way I like it. It was delicious and refreshing. Don't get fooled by the red color and sweet taste. This drink does contain alcohol, more than some beers. My husband had the flight of beers where you can select four different drinks. That is the best option if you cannot decide what you want. You can also ask to sample the beer before deciding. Staff here is friendly and service is quick. One drawback is that they don't serve food. There is one food truck parked right outside the brewery but I wished there were more food options. Ambiance of this place is lively. read more

Good beers, but I cannot stand their music choices. Seeing families with young children hearing every bad word you could imagine over your speakers... words that start with F (all verses), B (not the female dog), N (I refuse to say this one or spell it out), S (not shucks). You get the picture. You have a beautiful yard area & food truck but your music is NOT inviting read more

Good variety of beers and seltzers. Nice outdoor seating with a large lawn. Service was quick.

So expensive. The tips start at 20%... for what you may ask? I am asking myself the same question. The service was horrible, the lady at the front counter was very rude and was sitting on a stool behind the counter... why does that deserve a 20% tip? The beer is eh... I would confidently say the only thing they have going for them, and this is a stretch, is the ambiance. The merchandise is also not good and we were excited to purchase. There were maybe 3 beers on the menu, and the rest were seltzers. Save yourself the time and go somewhere else to be treated with kindness as well. read more

This is a real family oriented local place. They have outside games for kids tables and good food would definitely visit here again.

Beers were all awful. We shared two flights and I found only one that was possible wirth a full pour. The food truck was great though. And the overall vibe, location, and service was great. Just wish the beers were good. read more

JLB is a true Eastern Sierra hidden gem. We made a stop here on the way to Mammoth and I am glad we did. While they don't serve food here, there is a food truck on site. We grabbed some tacos from the food truck that were great. The beer at JLB is what shines. We ordered the What the Fruit Sour and the Peach Hop Water. The sour was amazing. One of the better sours I've had in a while. The hop water was good, but not much hop or peach flavor. I'd like to see that bumped up a notch. I also sipped the ninja XPA that they were trying to clear out and that was a super tasty and balanced take on a pale ale. The service here is counter service only where you order your drink and then pick it up. I always get a bit peeved when the minimum tip on the screen is 20% when I'm ordering the drink and picking it up. The space at JLB is definitely more of a summer space. They do have some seating indoors but luckily it was a nice day when we visited. I don't know that JLB would have been as busy on a chilly day. The outdoor space is incredible though. Lots of covered and open seating. I'll stop by JLB again, but I'll most likely wait until next summer! See you soon! read more

Always a fan favorite when visiting June Lake. They have a small seating area indoors and tons of seating options outdoors. Also, have a few games. They have a Food Truck that serves great food. Mexican and American food options. Their Burritos and tacos always hit the spot. Very tasty. Especially their red salsa. They have quite a bit of beers on tap. If you're unsure what to order the people behind the bar are very helpful. read more

June Lake Brewing (JLB) is all the vibe as the local watering hole in the lively June Lake area. In addition to their indoor section, they host a large playground of sorts in the form of their outdoor lot. Said lot is outfitted to host the perfect little hangout. The lot contains plenty of seating -- most under a canopy -- two food trucks, and, overall, laid back vibes. Their outdoor lot does seem to have been a makeshift decision and due to the number of people it is capable of holding, the indoor bathroom is not able to cut it on its own. Solution: Portable Bathrooms. Said bathrooms do make the grounds look like a construction site, but, yea, I get it. As for beer, they are known for their hard seltzer, Bang Sauce, and slushies. Their classic offerings are varied as they should be. Two DIPA's on tap -- Hutte and The Ocho -- were strong, but not the best (old and a little metallic). The no dog policy is a turnoff, but my understanding is that their insurance has banned all dogs on the premise due to a previous bite incident. Not exactly bogus, but certainly the first I have heard of such an arrangement. If anything, they need proper and obvious signage that no dogs are allowed as the workers are annoyed having to constantly kick people out and the dog owners also get turned off especially when a worker is clearly giving them a bad attitude (witnessed this a lot during my short visit). The place has most of the markings of a laid back brewery, but their no dog policy is really hurting that brand. read more

3 years ago we came here and the atmosphere was awesome ,my boyfriend liked the beers and the food truck was pretty good.We came back and we were totally looking forward to hanging out there during our vacation.We went there 3 separate days.First day my boyfriend had 2 beers only because they finally turned down that horrible thrasher music.Came back next day hoping it might be different music,but it was still heavy metal thrasher music,then on top of that we were startled when we seen someone just stand up and flip a table so we thought somebodies drunk or pissed and a group said dont worry that's just the owner and he did that cause the table was broke.We left after only the first beer.We decided to try one last time yesterday hoping it would be better.My boyfriend got 1 beer still same awful music but turned down,but 10 min.later blasted this loud horrible inappropriate music.we walked out.I was so disappointed as the last time we visited we had a great time.We wanted to go to a fun,chill,awesome place to hang out and instead felt like I was in a mosh pit.If it was better we would have stayed for 3 or 4 more beers.You lost money and customers unfortunately cause I really dug this place before. read more

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Fun brewery with a nice selection. I'd been meaning to visit for a while and finally got my chance on my last trip to June Mountain. We got there just as they opened so no problems finding a table. I got a pint of their rice lager, which was light and crisp. I got some cans to go for a gathering later that night: more of the rice lager and their barrel-aged stout, which got raves at the party. Spacious with a friendly staff--definitely worth the stop. Food truck on the premises also! read more

This brewery is one of the great things about June Lake! If you're staying anywhere nearby, it's worth the stop. We stayed at a nearby campground and walked a mile to get here! The beers are all solid and there's ample outdoor space. There's always a food truck too, with a pretty extensive menu. The staff all seem pretty chill and attentive. read more

If I'm able to, I try to make a stop at June Lake Brewing every time I pass through the Eastern Sierras. There is a lot to love about them, and it is a gem of a spot in a gem of a region. For starters, it is a small place, which I love. Not exactly hole-in-the-wall, but just a counter ad a couple tables inside, and a big outdoor seating area. You're surrounded by gorgeous mountains, and it is just a fun place to hang around at. Plus, the food truck they have parked out back is excellent, with some great tacos and such. The beer is also very good. I think my favorite is their two session IPA's, both very smooth and delicious. But the Milk Stout is nice, as is the Extra Pale Ale. If you've been out hiking, nothing is more refreshing than a few of the pints from here. Prices here are decent, maybe around $8-$9 per pint, and service I experienced has been pretty darn quick and friendly, even when there is a longer line. Not really any downsides to speak of, apart from the parking situation. June Lake, the brewery and the town, are very small places, and so parking can be a big issue. So be watchful for a spot in their lot, but if it's full, just be aware there is very little street parking nearby, and there is usually lots of pedestrians around. So yeah, definitely has been, and will remain a go-to stop of mine whenever I'm in the region. Glad to always swing by, and I'll be anxious for another round. Cheers! read more

June Lake Brewing is a great place to grab a post snowboard beer. They have inside seating as well as outdoor tables. They also have a food truck outside in case you get hungry. The cherry on top is the old gondola and chair lifts outside! read more

Hands down one of my favorite breweries! June lake brewing is always a must stop when we're in the area. We stock up on beer during our stay, and grab some extra for home! While I'm not typically an IPA girl, their variety of IPA beers are all smooth and enjoyable. My personal favorite is the bang sauce hard seltzer. Although, it's not your typical seltzer and I think favors a kettle sourish taste, fortunately kettle sours are my favorite! read more
