Noble Ale Works: A True Anaheim Beer Pillar Noble Ale Works is a cornerstone of the Orange County craft beer scene, and they are essential viewing for anyone visiting Anaheim, especially if you're catching a game nearby. This spot consistently delivers world-class, expertly brewed beers in a laid-back, industrial-chic setting. You absolutely have to try their famous Naughty Sauce, a Golden Milk Stout that is surprisingly light in color but rich in flavor, infused with coffee--it's creamy and incredibly unique. If you're an IPA fan, you can't go wrong with anything from their highly-regarded Showers Series or the classic Big Whig IPA; they are hop-forward, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The atmosphere is excellent, with plenty of seating both inside and out. Since they don't have their own kitchen, they frequently host a variety of local food trucks, which keeps the food options fresh and exciting (check their social media for the day's vendor). The staff is super knowledgeable and always happy to guide you through their extensive tap list, which also features great seltzers and lagers for those looking for something lighter. Whether you're a serious beer connoisseur or just looking for a fun spot to grab a pint, Noble Ale Works is a mandatory stop in Orange County. read more

Places pretty cool have TVs all over. Music is good. And then you have a bartender, the dude with an X on the inside of his arm who's rude! You ask him a question and he had a shitty comment back. Treating people that way on the first visit is not very inviting for the next time.. Yes, I get it. Some people have a bad day, but the first impression will always make or break. Good customer service. They have good looking cheeseburgers outside with the food vendor. Maybe I'll try it again. I was hoping to try the Pilsner not a lot of options for this visit. read more

Noble Ale Works - Wondering if that's black mold water is just dripping everywhere. - Breweries Near Me - Anaheim, California

Local brewery with some good beer. I came on a game day so the place was packed and loud including some very loud children. They were all out of glasses so they served my beer in a plastic cup. $10 for a beer in a plastic cup is too high unless I'm in a stadium or watching a concert. The place is industrial with no real vibe to speak of. I think I picked a bad day to grab a drink. Maybe I will come back. The beer was good. read more

Went here the Ducks last playoff game. Reasonably priced, delicious beers. Super close to the stadium, lots of TVs. They also had delicious tacos right out front. Nice $10 16oz beers before paying $20 for 24 oz at the stadium. Friendly staff as well. read more

Next time your in the area and looking for a brewery. Check out Noble Ale brewery. In the warehouse area of Orange/Anaheim. Whenever I'm in town. It's my first and only brewery. Great microbrews and favor selections. They open at 4pm with a food vendor outside. Perfect hangout before a Angel or Duck game. I've been coming here for years. Love this place and recommend highly. Awesome people, nice relaxing area with television showing games. Plus 2 clean bathrooms. Check it out. You won't be sorry. read more

Our first visit to the brewery was on a Saturday early evening. Definitely not too crowded, but some games on the big screens and an awesome lineup on tap. The woman behind the counter was very friendly and helpful as we selected our flight and asked some questions. We love that the Naughty Sauce is a staple with variants of it and other stouts being prevalent on the menu. The highlights were Cinnamon Roast Crunch, Naughty Sauce, and Ligers IPA. Prices were pretty reasonable, but the comfort level of the stools and not well-maintained bathrooms have room for improvement. A little more divey of a brewery than necessary, but solid beers. read more

I really dislike when a business can't stick to their posted hours, which seems to be a pattern with this place looking at the reviews. Yelp says they close at 10, Google says 11, got there a little after 9 and they were already closed. We have hours for a reason, I wouldn't waste your time trying to come here. read more

Thanks Luke for the hospitality and the knowledge of beers. I like that they do pop ups each month . More to come!

Came here for the Anaheim Ducks watch party and they served baked potatoes with toppings on them of your choice and I enjoyed the food it was amazing I hope to come here for another watch party in the future if I'm available to come there. Great food great service and great ambience. read more

Have been here a couple times, and they always have a nice variety of different beer styles (and usually a seltzer if you aren't a beer person). You can also order most beers in 3 sizes. Staff is friendly, and there's a decent amount of space. They often have food trucks, but on our recent visit they didn't show. Not a reflection on Noble, but we had planned to eat there. You can always bring your own food too. We would return if in the area again. read more

Absolutely love Noble! Their flavors are fantastic and their imagination is incredible. For the sours, seltzers, and ciders drinkers that don't usually enjoy the taste of traditional beers this is the place for you to explore. Very traditional in brewery set up, no in-house food, higher barstool type seating, and located in an industrial type business center area. They do usually have food trucks and have limited hours but you can always stop by and grab cans to go. It is VERY rare and difficult to find these outside of the brewery so I do recommend stopping by to try as stumbling upon their drinks elsewhere is rare. read more

OMG how did I not know about this place?!!! I love beer and this is my new favorite brewery. The beers are good and so are the people. It's wing night tonight so at 4 pm we get wings and beer. It's a clean and large space, perfect for Anaheim Ducks fans. I will come here weekly from now on to catch my favorite sports teams(Ducks and Angels) oh and they have comedy night too! Happy Yelping! read more

Beer fit for a king. Our crew stopped by Noble Ale Works prior to hitting up the Angel's game on a Thursday. Unfortunately the Angel's lost badly (0-11, ouch!) but the drinks from Noble Ale Works made the trip worth it. Their brew team is incredible. They offered us a number of tastings from the tap to make sure we were happy with our picks. One of their memorable beers was the funfetti, very dessert-esque. We also tried the Flamingle, a pink strawberry lemonade seltzer. My besties ended up taking home a six pack of this seltzer for a future beach day. You can tell that Noble was made by the coolest nerds around. Several of the beers are themed around Harry Potty, Rick & Morty, etc. The artwork is dope and I'd buy a six-pack for this alone. They typically have additional vendors onsite during peak hours. During our visit there was a jewelry seller and mediterranean food truck. Pro tip: Noble Ale Works offers complimentary parking for games at the Angel's Stadium. It's an easy 10 minute walk and worth saving a few dollars. Great spot to pre or post game! Plus it's not as packed as Golden Road/Karl Strauss. read more

Swung by Noble on an Angels game day -- didn't actually go to the game, just hung out and watched it on the TV. Overall, it was a chill time, but the place didn't exactly blow me away. I had the Mexican lager and their West Coast pilsner. Both were decent, but came out a bit warmer than I'd like. Not the worst, but definitely not super crisp or refreshing. I did try a couple of their hard seltzers and those were surprisingly solid -- great flavor and colder than the beer, which was kind of funny. The brewery itself has a laid-back, warehouse vibe, but it looked a little run down. Nothing awful, just could use a little love. Still, the atmosphere was fun -- people were in good spirits, game on the TV, and some yard games going on. Service was friendly, and they had a food truck parked outside, which was a nice bonus since there's no in-house kitchen. All in all, Noble was just okay for me. Not a bad stop if you're in the area or looking to pregame near the stadium, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. I hope yall stop by and enjoy the vibes! Enjoy fellow yelpers read more

Great place to stop before a Ducks game. Pretty good beers and plenty of places to hangout with friends & family

I truly enjoy this brewery and their great beers/ seltzers.. when they decide to stay open. My friends and I went to celebrate my birthday on a Thursday on a NON-GAME day. Their website said they would have a food vendor selling wings and the brewery would be open until 10pm. My friends all arrived shortly after 6pm, when we inquired on the food vendor, we were told they cancelled. Bummer.. so we placed some food delivery orders and waited for them to arrive. To our surprise, close to 7pm the only employee working started walking around saying it was "last call." We were very confused, since we had been there less than an hour, were waiting for our food to arrive, and they were supposed to close at 10?? The employee said it was too slow and they couldn't justify staying open. He said he was instructed by the owner to close the place down. My friend jokingly asked how much we have to spend to keep it open.. to which he replied $1,000. Ummm.. ok. So we could not leave as we were waiting for food delivery, he said we could hang out at the picnic tables in the parking lot.. thanks? Lol. We made the best of it, and while we hung out and ate our food other customers drove up and were also disappointed to find out this brewery was closed way before their scheduled time. Needless to say, it left a sour taste in my mouth. I guess the best time to go to Noble Ale Works is before/after a game at Honda Center or Angels stadium, unless you want to risk ending your night early because they don't have enough customers. read more

Came into Noble Ale Works before an Angels game and we absolutely loved it! Such a fun brewery with the best vibes, plenty of space, and a great selection of beers! We had way too much fun here and didn't even realize the baseball game had started while we were still hanging out there with our beers. This location is also awesome in that it's just a short walk to the game from here. The brewery also has both an inside and outside space, and lets you try the beer before you commit to a full size. Loved this place and can't wait to come back to try other beers. read more

Let me start off by saying, Candice (hopefully I spelled that right) is SO AWESOME!!!!!! This place is nothing short of amazing. I have to say, we were recommended this by a friend who brought one of their seltzers and we were so impressed we had to check it out. We were more than impressed. The selection they have is not only impressive, it's creative, funny, and down right tasty. Candice was helping us and held our hands as we figured out what we wanted to buy because the options were a plenty and all good! Lol. They have food venders that come in and we are pumped to come and try them, but this place.... Is stupid good and if you're an angels fan (I'm a dodgers lol) then YOU CAN PARK FREE HERE and walk to the game. Overalll, 100% you need to go here read more

Went here before the freeway series game to pre game. Plenty of parking, not enough seats. It was busy with dodger and angel fans, so mostly standing room only. Online it states you have to register for free parking, we did and never needed to show proof of this. We purchased our drinks and left one car there while at the game. Came back to it with no problem. Staff was friendly, drinks were great. I had the pineapple seltzer, it was very refreshing on a hot day. The inside is not air conditioned just fyi, we went when it was in the 100's and it was very warm inside. Fun place, and plenty of tvs to watch the game as well. We will definitely be back! read more

Somewhat of a secret spot if your I'm the know, then you would know what's here. Located in the very industrial section of Anaheim sits this Brewery/tasting room that guarantees a good time and friendly service. Most importantly the place is dog friendly. My pup was welcomed with open arms and was able to sit right below me. If your hungry there is no kitchen but there are a few food trucks waiting outside. I normally visit Saturday nights when they have car shows happening. On these nights they often have local venues selling their products. The beer is good. There are multiple options on tap served ice cold.. They can tap it into tiny cups or larger ones. They also offer beer packs to go. Obviously already canned. Pretty cool dpot. read more

One of the top breweries in OC. Great place to hang out after an Angels game. Also tons of parking unlike the other local breweries. They have a great selection and seem to take a ton of risks in their beer. I get so bored of your lager and IPA only breweries. read more

Noble Ale Works - Taster flight. - Breweries Near Me - Anaheim, California

I was recently back after a few years of hiatus. I had a great experience upon my return. The best part of my visit was the staff! Everyone was welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, and totally on top of their game. The beer was good as usual, and I have a new favorite. My former fav, the OG Naughty Sauce was dethroned for my weakness, a Bavarian hefe, Children of the Wheat. The brewery has expanded a bit with a communal set of benches outside and a giant music and entertainment space tucked in the back. There is an air hockey table, a lounge with a TV, and some pinball machines. I'm ready to go back already for some fresh draft Children of the Wheat! read more

Noble Ale Works - Yummy pizza with a lil water and some delicious beer. - Breweries Near Me - Anaheim, California

I'm from out of town and really wanted to try a Noble again. Be careful and call ahead. They don't keep their Yelp up to date. I'm positing my pic of their times taken yesterday, Saturday July 6th. I got there and it was closed. Now this wouldn't piss me off if I hadn't wasted the money on an Uber ride to get there. Met a nice brewery or maybe the owner there. He was semi apologetic. Totally not interested in helping though he was taking someone inside for a tour or something. I guess he got the hint since they just updated their times on site. So glad I could help. Just really annoying. I left and went to The Bruery. Check out that review read more

Noble Ale Works - A couple of A Noble Tailgate Lagers - Breweries Near Me - Anaheim, California

[During COVID-19 pandemic review for takeout only] I was introduced to Noble Ale Works by my co-worker who is also my friend and he hyped it up so I had to try it while I was in SoCal to confirm the hype. :) I ordered an abundance of beer on the Noble Ale Works website so that I could go to the brewery and pick it up. Ordering online was seamless. The website is straightforward and the details were accurate. The payment system was also easy to use. When I went to pick it up, however, my order was not ready. Online it stated my order would be ready on the specific date and set time I selected. Unfortunately, this was not the case. When I got there, I went in the brewery and there was only one person working. He was preoccupied with his current tasks at hand and didn't even acknowledge or greet me. This made my initial impression a little disappointing. However, I stood in line and patiently waited. 15 minutes later, I was asked what I wanted and I let the gentleman know that I was here to pick up my online order. He looked it up on his tablet and asked me to wait 15 minutes. I waited for almost an hour before I got my order. Apparently my order was not ready and he was trying to fill all the crowlers one by one on his own. It was frustrating, but there was nothing I could do but wait. I got an apology prior to leaving and that was it. The beer was great as my friend ranted and raved about. I would give them 5 stars, but the service wasn't up to par. They may need to consider having two people work during a weekend shift or manage their online orders better. I would highly recommend the Naughty Sauce! This is a milk stout, but don't let the word stout deter you. It's not very bitter. It almost tastes like an alcoholic milk tea. :) In addition, when you pour the beer out, it's a light color and it just aesthetically confuses you because you're expecting a dark color for a stout. Note: If you buy the Naughty Sauce gift pack, it doesn't come with a box or nice bag... all items were separate and put into a grocery bag. I also tried the Captain Roast Crunch, but the cinnamon flavor profile was too forward and overwhelming making it very hard to enjoy. I got the Dankivore hazy IPA, Hazor Ramon hazy double IPA, and a variety of fruity hard seltzers! read more

Not sure what happen to this brewery. They lost themselves in the world of breweries. Staff were less than enthusiastic at the bar. They had some sort of "comedy" night inside the brewery. It was nothing than a bunch of people smoking weed and it smelt like a dirty crap hole. Gotta say, avoid this brewery and head to one that has an identity. Terrible! read more

What a hidden gem this is! I found out about it on Reddit whilst doing research on parking for a comedy show at the Honda Convention Center - buy a beer or two, park in a safe spot for free, and enjoy a nice little walk over to the venue. I arrived with about 90 minutes before the show and found a cozy little spot in the corner to enjoy my beer. I don't normally like beer, but I was surprised at how tasty my Motueka Showers was. The brewery was busy as people were pre-partying for the Angel's game and the comedy show. It was busy, but in a fun, lively way and got me pumped for the show! The walk to the Honda Convention Center was ~15 minutes and there were others walking over, so I just followed them. There are a few very busy streets to cross, but the City of Anaheim had plenty of officers out directing traffic and ensuring pedestrians were taken care of. The post-show walk back was a bit hectic, there were a lot of people leaving two huge venues, but there were lots of traffic controllers and stop-walk attendants. I felt very safe walking back to my car at night! My car was safe and sound when I returned, and Noble Ale Works was still pretty lively. Leaving the area wasn't fun - tons of traffic, so be ready for that. I will definitely return to Noble Ale Works if I go to another show in the area! read more

The Lucky Charm stout was great. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because they were out of the main beers we wanted to try. We will be back! read more

I appreciate your comment and wanted to give you another chance. Did you win an award for an IPA? I'm really sorry that my pallet is not the right fit for your WC IPAs. They just don't have the same overall cleanness and quality as a Docent, RiiP or Everywhere. Maybe it's the water, maybe the hops. I ask a lot of questions when I go to breweries because I do feel like I want to make sure I'm asking for the right things. I asked your beer tenders if certain hops were in some beers. They didn't know. I know the hops I do not care for. So I wouldn't judge a brewery on a beer made with a hop that I do not like. I also think your staff is lacking in caring, they don't know what's in the beer, they don't ask questions or give suggestions but they know if I don't tip. It's just not the vibe I'm looking for. That my personal review even circling back for the second time when it was dead and not baseball season. read more

Truly one of the hidden gems in Anaheim. This place deserves more press. All of the employees are extremely chill, which for me, is always a very important part of a dining/drinking experience. But the beer here is awesome!! 1) they have certain beers that are favorites that they pretty much always have. 2) they are always trying out new beers, which is another thing that I love. I wish I had more to say, but when a spot is as on point as this one...there isn't much else. It's managed well, and the beer is great, it's like an experience or it can also be like a local "pub." Both of those are good things!! read more

I have only tried about one or two other Anaheim breweries but both of those experiences were amazing and now I can add Noble Ale Works to that list! I had two of their beers. The Noble Haze was a double IPA that I really liked a lot! It had a good fruitiness to it and an herbal aspect on my tongue which I love! I do love herbal flavors to beer and feel like I don't come across them enough... Speaking of not coming across something enough... that moves me on to the other beer we had. The Naughty Sauce. A white stout which I feel like is a pretty rare find. I do love white stouts if I can get a hold of them because they are a nice change of pace and always taste do good! And if you have read enough of my reviews you know how much I like my complexity of flavors! This white stout has highlights of pecan pie, cinnamon and cookie dough. It makes for a sweet beer but I felt like it wasn't heavy handed either. Excellent beer from this brewery and well worth checking out! read more
