I saw a sign for this place as I was passing Tehachapi on the highway to Bakersfield and immediately had to pull over to check it out. I arrived nearly an hour early but decided to just wait til' they opened since I was already there. I had a flight of four tasters. Mostly darker beers, that's my thing. The beers were ok, but the pecan stout was like WOW! Nice job on that one! The interior is a large open warehouse which is kinda cool. The lady bartender was not very friendly with me which was offputting so I kept to myself and did not strike up conversation. Cool place with lot of beer choices. If im in the area again I'll try again :-) read more

This place is great! It was our first time here and the ladies behind the counter were so nice and helpful. They have a lot of different beers on tap so my boyfriend and I each got a flight. The atmosphere there was awesome and a few of the regulars gave us a few recommendations. Great time for our first time here! read more

Local Craft Beer - Hazy Promise IPA - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Coming from a city that has a number of great microbreweries, I am not easily impressed, but LCB is on a par with the very best microbreweries in the country. The IPAs at this microbrew gem really demonstrate that the brewmaster gets it - perfectly balanced, not overly citrus, great aftertaste. While a bit hard to find as they are located in the back of a small industrial park, it is well worth the trouble. Reasonably priced, fantastic selection of beers. If you're in Tehachapi, don't miss it. read more

Local Craft Beer - Cheap - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

I'm all about craft breweries right now. Honey Wagon gives the high desert a great alternative to driving all the way to Ridgecrest for a solid beer. The brewery is exactly what you'd think it would be. A bar and some tables set up for libation consumption. If you're worried about the decor and "atmosphere", this review is not for you. The brews coming out of Honey Wagon are some of the best craft brews you can find in the high desert/Central Valley. Whether you're looking for an IPA a brown or a barley, honey wagon has what you are looking for. So the next time you're looking for a solid beer, drink local and give these guys your patronage read more

Local Craft Beer - Tastes amazing even out of a boot - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Decided to break up our drive home from Joshua Tree by staying a night in Tehachapi, and wanted to enjoy some local beer. Not only was the beer terrific, but we happened to be there during an excellent open mic and got to enjoy some of the best tacos we've ever had. Oh, and everyone was very friendly and the sense of community was palpable. A spur of the moment decision ended up being a highlight of spring break. Can't recommend this place enough. read more

The two cans of Newish WhoDis? that weren't flat were sooper tasty! Unfortunately, the other two were totally flat when opening them... perhaps an issue with their canning process? At any rate, at almost $20 per 4-pack here in the Bay Area, I wont risk buying again anytime soon if I'm going to get 50% flat beer, especially after two negative experiences and not a peep from the purveyors. read more

The owner is very nice as well as his staff. The owner took the time to give us a little crash course about the making of beer and what he uses as well as his mistakes which is how he came up with his creations. Atmosphere is very casual, allows you to bring friendly pets, WiFi and has a cater selling a specialty of the night bbq style food. Prices are reasonable and I would suggest if it's your first time there order the flight. It has four 2oz of their sampler beers. My favorite beers from their choices are their Coconut Brown and El Hefe Beer. It is a little difficult to find especially at night. All the way down the side road as if you going to Home Depot, down the alley on the left hand side, parking is tight and dark. Drive slow to avoid passing the warehouse. read more

Local Craft Beer - The Flight $6 - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

I hadn't been that Tehachapi in a long time and figured by now there had to be breweries there. I was very happy to find this establishment. My buddy and I sampled about 10 beers and found all but one to be very well done. Even grab a couple of cans to take home each. The hazy's were my favorite, followed by the stouts. Even the sour I tried was pretty good. The reds, I think could use a little work still but that may also just be my taste. read more

We came to Tehachapi with a friend who grew up there and had not yet been back to see/ visit Honey Wagon Brewing, so, as San Diego beer snobs, we were pretty pumped. Visited on a Friday night and it was fairy busy, but still easy to get the bartender's attention/ order more beer. We ordered three flights of tasters, having decided that we should try all before we make the very serious commitment of buying a full beer. We really enjoyed most of the beers we tried, especially the Natalie Porter, Quaker Shaker, and S&M Blonde. It's pretty great to try a flight of beers and like nearly all of them. The bartenders were friendly, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the brewery itself was clean and well-maintained. We'll definitely be back. read more

Awesome atmosphere, came here when on a project at Edwards AFB on a recommendation from a friend. Tried a flight, and normally I am not a fan of ipa, but it was really good! The coconut brown has a really good coconut finish (like the namesake) and I hear it's so popular that they run out, so get some before it's gone. They are located really close to home depot in a small industrial type area (gps takes you way past and is all wonky), so go get your depot on, then stop for your other item on your task list. They are open thur thru Sunday I think read more

Local Craft Beer - The bah_r - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Been a fan of lcb for a while, and I finally stopped for a few flights a couple months ago. Listened to some locals sing on an open mic night, and was amazed how diverse the board was. They must have had 30 beers on the board, most on tap. Had a handful of new beers and enjoyed all of the variations I tried (from dark beers, ipas to sours). It was a blast! read more

Even though it's far out from Bakersfield, that does not stop my friends and I from visiting this gem regularly. Great beer and friendly staff!!! read more

Local Craft Beer - LCB Beer - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Despite the out-of-way location and lack of an actual food menu, this business embraces blue collar workers and camaraderie! With a notable selection of brews and knowledgeable staff, you should give this hole-in-the-wall "watering hole" a chance! read more

As a resident of Tehachapi under a year this place has been great. I started going here while it was owned by Steve, a great guy. The beers here is great and under the new owner, Tyson, the options have grown. The new Triple IPA is fucking unbelievable ( don't have more than one if your driving). If you get Tyson talking about beer making you will meet a guy that is more passionate about Beer than Katy Perry is about kissing a girl. HWB has a great staff as well. Chelsea, Laci and Meg.... You make HWB where everyone knows your name. You make the place. As a new Tehachapi resident this is the place where I meet people. Shout out to the regulars who have made me feel like Tehachapi family. Pat, Mike, Ron, Sean, Mark and Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike.... So many Mikes I told them to start calling me Nick. read more

So glad my wife and I decided to finally pay honey wagon brewery a visit today! Very easy to find and the place was clean and spacious! Very cool vibe and great service....oh yeah and BEER! We both got a flight of beer both with different types of brew! Mine were a mix of ipa's and pale and a coffee stout and my wife's where a mix of reds and porters. The beers were all great and we will be paying the honeywagonbrewery several visits in the future! read more

Local Craft Beer - Sweet place! - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

I like this place: its basic form is a bar set up in a warehouse, complete with roll up doors. If you didn't know better by looking at the outside it looks like just another warehouse. It feels like you are having a beer with a few people in a home man cave rather than an actual bar. -it looks just what it is, a bar set up in a warehouse. A bar, tv and a few tables that's about it. -Nothing fancy or formal about it. -This place is all about the beer. This is not a place to bring a date to get your grub on. They do have snacks but my suggestion would either be eat before you go or have a couple beers and go eat some place else. - if you never been here, if it were any closer you could throw a rock and hit Home Depot. - My only suggestion would be that this place could benefit from some sort of bar activity. Such as a pool table or darts. I didn't hear any music or see any jukebox so that could be a plus as well. - The beer is amazing and the other customers and bartender seems friendly. I will be coming back in the near future. I recommend giving this place a try. read more

So after having couple bad experiences with this brewery beer I tried again after the owner sent extra beer and glasses to Vegas to make up for the bad beer received. Was excited to pour this one out and see the color that I expected on first couple. Have to say this was delicious and now I will probably go back for more. Thanks Tyson read more

Local Craft Beer - Nice response - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

This brewery is real nice local one. The ambiance is super chill and they have a wide variety of brews. Something for everyone. Their sours are amazing. Such a good place to go to for when you're looking to wind down with friends. read more

Stop I'm here passing throw Tehachapi, only place open for a cold one on easter. Even if this was not the only place open I would go back. The beer is great! I had a ruthless red And the coconut brown both amazing. I took a crawler 32 ounce beer home of the ruthless. I will be stop here on my way home to try a few more for sure! I don't remember the two girls names that where working but one of the girl was a little rude and short, I was trying to ask her some questions about the beer and I felt more annoying to her then anything. It was not busy at all so I feel like she could've taken the time. But in her defense I realized after getting there she was getting off within about 20 to 30 minutes, and it was Easter so I'm sure she was ready to be home so I have kind of mixed feelings about it, but still feel like she should've answered my questions. The second girl that came in was amazing, I can't remember her name all I know is she's five months pregnant she said. We talked about her kids and she answered all my questions about the different beers and I didn't feel annoying at all. Even with that one girl being ready to enter shift and having the context of that this place was amazing and I would be back even if my only encounter was her. read more

I went here the first time Sunday. I was told to come here by some of my fellow beer lovers for a friends birthday. I had ordered a flight so I could sample the main eye catchers! I am personally not an IPA person, but the Blue berry dog was really good! The service was pretty slow, even with the slow pace of a Sunday. Maybe the girls were new, or just had an off day. The to go crowlers were nice to take back home. Pretty happy overall, Love that it is dog friendly :) read more

Love this place the owners are wonderful people and make you feel like part of the family ! Great brews and they even brought in a food truck for folks you want food with their brew. They also do live bands and have alot of fun stuff to do in the brewery. Love this place. read more

Great spot to relax and have a local brew. Hidden gem. Somewhat hard to find, but worth the effort. Will be a regular there... read more

Not a bad place. They got a good variety of beers. Everything from a Hef to a TIPA. Good music, nice locals. Currently, they have about 17 beers on tap. Not too bad.

Local Craft Beer - Ahhhh!!! Refreshing. - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

First off, I'm an out of towner to Tehachapi but have been working out here for the past few months on a weekly basis. So why is it I am just now finding this hidden gem of a brewery?! It is located off the beaten path but that's a good thing and I can walk here in 5 minutes from where I lodge. The layout has a nice wraparound bar along with table seating both inside and outside, Cherie happened to be my server for the evening and she was very courteous and offered a bunch of mixtures of the great craft beers they had to offer. My favorite was the Red and Blonde mix, I believe it was called the stepchild but could be wrong. Pints were $6 Growlers were $20 and between $12-$14 to fill Samplers (4 servings) were $8 your choice or $6 for their pick of pours. Steve the owner happened to be there and on this particular day he was grilling free hot dogs for his patrons since they do not serve food, he did state he has been granted permission to start serving soon and is working on a food truck. You can order delivery there or bring something to grill on their BBQ which is awesome!!! It is also dog friendly, which too me is my only gripe about this establishment but the beer made me forget about all of that. Definitely will be back when I'm in town! read more

Local Craft Beer - Great Beer. Good Music. Great Servers. (Especially Cherie, not sure if thats how she spells it). Cheers to Steve, much success! - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Local Craft Beer - Our flight..after having a pint of the What the Hef and Quaker. - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

I love this place and stop any time I go through Tehachapi. The owner is very hands-on and nice. The beer is great and the industrial building it is in provides a relaxing environment. They don't serve food but have arrangements with local places to deliver there. The Snob IPA and Stepchild are my favorite beers here but the menu changes frequently and provides a lot of variety. read more

GUYS!!! I love this place!! I randomly found it on yelp and walked in to the owners daughter greeting me with a high five! It was awesome! The woman who served me was so nice and friendly. But the most important part was the beer yum tasty and delicious!! read more

This is a great place to grab a beer in Tehachapi... maybe the only place too! Great bartenders and really good beers.

We've been here a few times now and I can't say enough good about it. The atmosphere alone is so welcoming. The patrons are all so welcoming. The staff are so happy and helpful. There's a nice large taproom a bar and a great outdoor area. The beer is great and there's 10 different kinds to choose from as well as some amazing Blends. They have live music on Sunday's, ladies night on Thursday and open Mic night on Wednesdays. If you are driving thru Tehachapi or stopping in for a visit or some site seeing make sure to stop in to Honey Wagon and get your No 2 yes lol that's the name of one of there beers read more

This is what Tehachapi has been waiting for. Good beer, good people, cant wait to see whats in store for the future. read more

Local Craft Beer - Love is place - Breweries Near Me - Tehachapi, California

I've been here twice and can say, they make damn fine beer. I'm a hop head and these folks deliver. There is also a nice selection of stouts and a couple of sours as well as other styles, that also deliver great balance and flavor. Be forewarned, they don't have a kitchen to serve, but you can bring in your own food and all is well. Perhaps do your own beer and food pairing. The staff there is friendly and helpful in guiding you through the descriptions of the different beers. I will return, thirsty for more. read more

Fun, flavorful beer! Always something new and interesting on tap, from coconut hefeweizen to an ultra-pale. The signature #2 brown ale is not to be missed but if you found another favorite that's easy to understand. We've taken to bringing in food from nearby but the pizza and Mexican places deliver. Don't let the industrial park environment deter you: here there be beer! read more

Ok. Couldn't stay away. Their beer is too good! Tyson sought me out. We exchanged baby pictures. We're good. I'm a regular for life.

A great brewery in Kern County. A must try when passing through Tehachapi.

Beers are really good but their cans loose their pressure when held for a little while didn't really help keep the beer fresh.

Best beer In Tehachapi hands down. Some of the best Hazy IPAs in the country. Great beer and amazing customer service. Home away from home!
