This is always a great place to go and relax with a beer and some good food from either the food truck or bring your own. We found a place by one of the fire pits on a cold day with some sandwiches. The staff are always so friendly and helpful when I have a question about a beer or for a recommendation. There are lots of tables outside and inside. When we were there, there was a big party in the front area. There are TVs to watch sports inside. read more

Great spot to hang out for a vast array of beers and ciders as well as seltzers. They always have a resident food truck that on this occasion was a Mexican type fusion. My favorite beer was the Toro loco lager and the Elderberry seltzer a nice surprise. Plenty of seating and spacious as well as dpg friendly and at some time lots of barking going on. They have outdoor and indoor seating. Most of the staff was nice some was more on the serious side. Flights are also available as well as some cool merchandise and trucker hats. Great stop after a good hike. read more

Moonraker Brewing - Hard Seltzer Flight (4) - Breweries Near Me - Auburn, California

I really love stopping by Moonraker for a beer or seltzer after hiking near there. They also have really good food trucks there. This time I tried their new seltzer called Weed Rips. It was very refreshing and had a great flavor. They have a great patio and they are dog friendly. read more

Moonraker Brewing - Weed Rips seltzer. Delicious - Breweries Near Me - Auburn, California

Such great beer, but cranking 90's angst rock in early afternoon- not exactly the chill vibe i was hoping for. Maybe try some jazz, blues, or folk or anything. Don't get me wrong i love those songs some days but it just sets a vibe read more

Their apple cinnamon Sour / seltzer was the BEST I've ever had! Very kind server helped us with many recommendations. Cute merch!

I appreciate that Moonraker Brewing always has multiple styles of brews for most tastes. I appreciate that someone like me who appreciates a malty, rich brew but not bitter brews will always find something to enjoy here. It was hard to choose between the dry Irish stout on nitro vs the Czech Dark Lager. Both taste incredibly *good*. Visiting Moonraker always leaves me with a happy, satisfied, smile as I feel like I've been served the nectar of the gods. read more

They had no no alcohol drinks. They only provided sodas. The bartender on pointed to shelf when asked. It would be a good idea to provide this. The provide baby showers and other events I assume. read more

It had been a while since we been back at Moonraker . This beer and brewery is still one of my top 5 breweries. Their beers are definitely craft beer u can taste the quality and care in the making of these beers . Walking in to this establishment it was massive! They have a lot of areas available for private parties . If you are thinking of a private party this would be a great idea . Their outside patio has so much space too . They have Food Trucks and live music on certain dates . It's so big they even have a private party area outside too . Service - We had the pleasure to meet Vincenzo he was so friendly and attentive. He guided us through our beer flights. He is very knowledgeable and fun . He even gave us tips on where to go for dinner near the area . He is amazing definitely above and beyond on his service . For our beers- They had so much to choose from they offer Hazy, Stout , Sour, West Coast ,Lagers and light beers , mixed Fermentations, and Hard Seltzers . Honestly everything sounded so good we had to get flights . We even tried the Foam Walker and let me tell you it was like an Espresso Martini of beers . Everything we tried was 10/10 and we had so much fun doing it . Overall this place has a great ambiance with the patio lights and the great staff that make you feel welcome . They are kid and dog friendly. They do not sell food but they have food trucks and chips and salsa for purchase. You can see the food trucks rotation on their website and their beers on tap. We can't wait to be back for some more fun and good beers . read more

HEAVENLY! The beer gods put this brewery on the map. Every single beer that they make is absolutely DELICIOUS! From hop forward to juicy to sour to light and refreshing, they have it all! There's a beer or beverage for everyone! The staff is efficient and happy to help. The brewery is huge with indoor and outdoor seating. Dog and kid friendly. FOOD: They have chips and salsa that you can buy in the brewery and they have rotating food trucks that pull up to the back patio. You can also bring in outside food. TO-GO: They have a ton a of beers to-go. From growler fills to 4-pks, they have it all. Not all beers can be purchased to take home so just ask or look on their TV menus. PARKING: They have parking in the front and the back of the brewery. They get busy but I've never had a problem finding a spot. This is one of my absolute favorite breweries in Placer County! I always love coming back. read more

We have always enjoyed Moonraker in Shingle Springs and attended a birthday party at this location and we were not disappointed! The service was fantastic, they had plenty of room inside and outside for get togethers, the food was great, and the beer was delicious. This is a great place to come to get a cold one, with friends for a round, or a larger party for a special occasion (call for a reservation)! read more

Moonraker Brewing - Moonraker interior space with one of the bars on the left and brewing equipment on the left. - Breweries Near Me - Auburn, California

Moonraker is one of our favorite spots in Auburn! Our food truck serves here twice a month, and it's always such a great experience. The crowd is friendly and welcoming, making every visit a pleasure. Their beer selection is top-notch, with a mix of reliable staples and exciting rotating options that keep things fresh. Whether we're serving up food or stopping by on our days off for a drink, the atmosphere never disappoints. The staff here are some of the nicest people around, and they make working with them a breeze.

Moonraker Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Auburn, California

Been coming here every time I have a chance. Great selection of beers and the friendly atmosphere is great. The location is tucked away from the main drag and has a hidden gem kind of feel when you are there. Staff has always been friendly and willing to suggest a beer pending your interests. The food rotates so I'll keep that out of my review. Recommend. read more

Whenever I visit my parents in Auburn, a trip to Moonraker Brewing is always on my list. If you're a fan of Hazy IPAs, this place is one of the best--they've truly perfected the style. Personally, I prefer lighter beers, and they have incredible options, like their Boho Pils, which was unmatched while it was available. The ambiance is fantastic--spacious, kid- and pet-friendly, with plenty of seating. I've even brought my laptop to work there and had no trouble finding a quiet spot near an outlet. One of my favorite memories of Moonraker is from my wedding day in 2018. I stopped by to ask if I could rent a keg. It's not something they typically do, but I happened to be talking to the owner. When I told him it was for my wedding later that day, he made an exception and let me rent two kegs. That kind of generosity and personal touch is rare and something I'll never forget. Genuine hospitality. If you're ever in the area, make sure to stop by Moonraker. Great beer, great vibes, and great people--you won't regret it! read more

Moonraker Brewing - Shenanigans - Breweries Near Me - Auburn, California

This is a great brewery and one I'd recommend to just about anyone over age 21. They offer a wide variety of brews that will satisfy most palates. The location is a little off the beaten path, but to me, that added to the overall experience. If you're seeking a break from Sacramento, or on a trip back from Lake Tahoe, Moonraker is a great place to stop for a bit. The outdoor seating is homey and comfortable. There are fire pits for those who want to warm their feet. I haven't been during the summer, but I'd imagine it would still be nice. Haven't tried any of the food trucks, but I believe they rotate. The beer is priced competitively so you won't have to worry about overspending. Great brewery overall! read more

Wow! Good beer, what a crowd on a Saturday! They had a taco truck out for food. I had the pale ale which was very tasty but probably not my fave. Hate to say it, but Sierra Nevada PA is still the golden rule - but their PA was very good. If you can park, it's a good place to hang. read more

My #1 brewery for many years. Friendly staff, great beers, and always a welcoming and fun atmosphere. I like that they rotate in new beers, and bring back old favorites on a regular basis. read more

I am a native from Auburn and I love that we have some good breweries around here where we don't have to drive too far. However, going to a brewery is, meeting up with family and friends and bringing your children so it's family friendly and I appreciate that, however, today someone decided it was okay to bring in a group of at least 10 kids around the age of 9 or 10 and they we're so loud it was hard to have a conversation. I think it's one thing to be able to bring your kids and still have an enjoyable experience,, but to have some sort of kids party at the brewery is not okay. They should have been at a pizza place. They did bring in five pizzas and all these were Extremely Loud and it was very difficult to have a conversation with anyone, even on top of the sound of the generator from the food truck. I did notice, all the husbands/ fathers we're outside of the area avoiding the noise and sitting by the fireplace and drinking. Again, not trying to be a Karen and I am so thankful for allowing children there because I bring my own grandchildren, however this was extremely disruptive to catching up with family and having an adult conversation. It's too close in quarters at this place for that to happen. There should be a little something in place in an adult atmosphere read more

Recently visited for a birthday, and we're in their private room. Love how cozy this location is. Big space for a good amount of people to mingle, but still plenty of room to walk around. Their private room had its own bathroom, and not too far from the bar to retrieve your drinks. Our party had plenty of food options, but they do have daily food trucks available. We definitely enjoyed our time at this location. read more

We came here Friday around 8pm. They close at 9pm but they still let people order more beers. Some even still had a full flight of beers when we left at 9. But I guess they don't kick people out. They had a good variety of beers. We liked the sours, hazies, seltzers, and dark beers. They have an amazing outdoor space! I heard it was created during Covid. Great place for family and dogs. read more

We were finally able to get to the brewery (while on our way camping). One of my softball teams has a couple guys from Auburn and they all bring beers from Moonraker and Knee Deep and we have debates of which one is better. Moonraker wins for my money so we've always wanted to come to this brewery and finally got the chance. Had some great tastes of beers and left with a couple four packs to take camping. I still say pound for pound California is the best state for beer and it's not just because of the bigwigs like Stones, Ballast and Drakes but because of the many outstanding breweries like this that you can find all over the state. We'll be back. read more

Quality/Quantity - $2 flight discount for 4 tasters, all beers were good. Today I had the following: Marzen - I consider this a Red, but it was kind of hoppy. Windsurfer - West Coast Pale Ale. Juicy Pail - NE Pale Ale. Electric Lettuce - Smooth especially for a NE Double IPA. Food truck Wing Mahal (not affiliated with Moonraker), 3.5 star experience. Of course we had to get the Mumbai spice wings, which paired perfectly with all my beers. This was my favorite food/choice. Samosawich - Sorry, I can not recommend. It was just a samosa in between two buns... Huge disappointment. The Samosas side would have been a better choice. Also, the fries were NOT crispy, and had very little quantity. Overall, a disappointment. Punjabi BBQ Tacos - Not bad, okay flavors, generous portions. Atmosphere - Open 7 days a week from 11am to 8pm or 9pm, see Yelp or website. Live music every Friday night, too bad I could not stay... Wednesday - Trivia night. Dog friendly. Semi private rooms, this brewery is HUGE, both indoor and outdoor space! Plenty of outdoor parking. Wifi password = moonraker. A long heat lamp right at the entrance and two fire pits, which is NOT enough for their huge space. Good thing, it just means I need to drink more to stay warm, LOL. Service - Good, got here before the rush, and she was very patient with me as I wanted a flight and have never been here before. Someone needs to go around and clean the tables outside. Price - $10 + tip for a flight of 4 tasters. $42 for the food truck lunch, which I think was overpriced for what we got. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2016 and I love your solar efforts! read more

Great brewery with awesome ambiance both indoor and outside, plenty of seating, and even areas for live music on Fridays! Great selection of beers with majority IPA/DIPA varietals. Friendly staff who are comfortable making suggestions as well. Parking in multiple lots nearby. The front of the brewery may be a little harder to spot since it's in a relatively industrial area of Auburn. Prices for flights and beers/growlers very reasonable. They have food trucks here as well (reviewed separately), which is nice to have an option to get a snack if you're catching up w/ friends or having an afternoon out. Would definitely recommend and will return soon! read more

Before heading out of town for the weekend to go camping, my husband and I stopped at Moonraker brewing with our dogs. It was mostly a stop to grab a late lunch from their food truck, but also to stock up on some beer for our camping trip. I have had Moonraker beers before, but never visited the actual brewery. The space is quite large and offers a ton of seating. They are dog friendly and they have rotating food trucks. I loved that they offered a nice variety of beers and even some seltzer's. You can purchase select beers in canned form, but they also sell growlers ($5 deposit if you don't have your own growler). The next time I find myself in the Auburn area, I will definitely be coming back to Moonraker brewing. read more

Went here with some friends and it was so good! The bartender was very generous in letting us try multiple drinks before making our final choice. His recommendations where great! All the sours are amazing, and so are the seltzers! Great options for gluten sensitive peeps. There's seats inside, along with a big outside seating area with some fire pits! Will be back again next time I'm in town! read more

Moonraker Brewing - Blonde Ale - Breweries Near Me - Auburn, California

Well, it goes without saying the first thing that comes to mind when I hear "Moonraker" I automatically think of the James Bond 007 movie of the same name starring Roger Moore. After poking around with brewery's history I couldn't quite find a direct connection or reference between the two. All I did find was emphasis by the owners for sustainability so... maybe it's a purposeful connection... or not...? Well regardless where the name came from the beer Steve and I had was absolutely wonderful! We got their Imperial Coffee Stout on Nito with Sea Salt. Steve is not a big fan of nitro at all but he was very impressed with this one. I have no problem with nitro but sometimes I do miss the carbonation but with the sea salt zing to it the beer had more life to it than one would think for a nitro. Of course the coffee fearure was great as we are always all about beer with coffee in it. There was also chocolaty notes to it that added to the great body and complexity which in the end made a very unique and fun nitro beer to enjoy. read more

I hosted my sister's 40th birthday party here last weekend and it was perfect! From the communication on booking the Barrel Room all the way to the day of, Moonrakers staff and manager Vincenzo were extremely professional and a delight to work with. The room was absolutely gorgeous and frankly, didn't need extra decoration even though we still did bring some of our own. This is a great location for hosting any event. Thank you Vincenzo and the rest of moonraker for making this a fantastic birthday for my sister. read more

Nice big space. Lots of outdoor tables and fire pits and good shade if it's sunny. Also large indoor space (which smells a lot like fermented hops. ha). Excellent Beer. I think my favorite was the Five oh Five WC Ale - just super super solid. Also enjoyed their IPAs and thought the Nitro stout was interesting. Only complaint is that they don't can more of them. They also have food trucks. We were there pretty early in the day and the food truck didn't come till part way through our visit (maybe 1pm?) but we were still able to get some lunch. read more

The outdoor seating area is perfect for those sunny days and the indoor seating area is ideal for those colder days. The option to have food trucks is great and the beer served both indoors and outdoors is top-notch. They have various restrooms available which makes it convenient for all customers. Overall, this brewery is a great place to relax and enjoy a good beer with friends and family. Love it! So many seating areas! Fast service read more

Impressive place. We had no idea what to expect, my husband was in the mood for some beer tasting. So big, so many people of all ages. Separate rooms, a huge covered outdoor area with picnic tables, gas fire pit tables, lots of chairs that are moved around, dogs allowed in that area. There was another separate area for adults only. A food truck -Main Lobster was parked next to outdoor area so people could order food. We had a great time watching the people, the little kids, and the dogs while my husband drank his flight of beers. He didn't realize how hoppy they all were. Next time he'll choose differently. Enjoyable few hours. It would be fun to come back with a group. read more

This brewery gets better and better with every visit. The outdoor space is AMAZING, always has a food truck, family and dog friendly, and the beer is always outstanding. Cans to go, growler fills, and beer to drink on site. Parking can be tough on the weekends but worth a walk around the block if needed. Knee Deep is right around the corner too and they are a SOLID brewery as well. read more

So much good beer! My hubby and I came here after spending some time in the cold. And to warm up we decided to drink some beer to put on our alcohol coat! We were surprised that when we have arrived there was indoor seating and A LOT of covered outdoor seating! There were so many beers to choose from with a lot being IPAs which I loved! They had a delicious food truck as well but did not make a food purchase a requirement. We happily enjoyed some food with our beer though. Employees were very friendly and then atmosphere was great. We will definitely be back. read more

Spent the day in auburn for the first time and our friends told us we HAD to try out moonraker brewing. Me and my boyfriend are huge brewery fans, especially IPAs so we were excited to check it out! The atmosphere is awesome! The seating is outdoors and huge. Plenty of space to party during the normal world, and to socially distance during our present world. They also have a food truck parked that switches out regularly. We were lucky to get Bella familias pizza, check out my review there too! My boyfriend and I ordered a flight of beer and we liked all of our selected beers. It was an awesome experience trying them out because typically when we order a flight we usually don't like 1 or 2 but this time all of them were up our alley! We particularly liked the Mountain Lines and the Hermit. We even were able to bring our dogs. There were also a ton of other dogs around too! It was a really pleasant and fun experience and I will totally look for moon raker cans when I'm out buying some beer! read more
