Dog friendly!
Jasa S.

Old Coast Ales is a laid-back craft brewery with a relaxed, locals-first vibe. The beer selection is solid and well-balanced -- especially their IPAs and the popular Kookaburra Brown Ale. The atmosphere is casual and dog-friendly, with indoor seating and outdoor patios that make it a great stop after the beach. No full kitchen, but you can bring food in, which adds to the easygoing hangout feel. Next door is an amaz8ng taco shop too. Try the San Diego!-jasa Great beer, chill atmosphere, and friendly service -- perfect for a relaxed afternoon stop.

The beer is delicious! Right next to a taco place too, so what's better than a beer and tacos? They have an outdoor patio area which we enjoyed. Super friendly service

We stopped in for a couple of beers while grabbing tacos next door. The Lite-House (blonde ale) was light and refreshing, and the watermelon hibiscus sour was excellent, if you are into sours. The shared seating setup is smart and makes this a great hand out spot. Perfect to grab tacos and beer in one stop.

Stopped for a beer on a warm summer's day. Enjoyed the little back seating area, which was fine.

Irish red

Stopped by Old Coast Ales while in town and really enjoyed the experience. I had both the brown ale and the Irish red ale--both were smooth, flavorful, and easy to sip. My wife had a passion fruit-style beer that was bright, refreshing, and surprisingly well-balanced. There's a great variety of beers on tap with something for everyone, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The space itself is laid-back, clean, and has a cool local feel with indoor and patio seating options. Definitely worth a visit if you're into craft beer or just want a relaxed stop while exploring St. Augustine!

Mexican lager and a Coffee brown.

Chill spot with good beers. Parking is a little though but you can park on the road. Bartender was friendly.

Cool little tap room & brewery with a nice inside area as well as outside seating area. It was busy so that speaks volumes about this place. I ordered the Low Tide which was very good and my gf ordered the Leap Beer which was also tasty. The lady pouring the beers wasn't too attentive though as I said Leap Beer twice and she literally cracks open a bottle of root beer and hands it to her. What!?! I was like I never ordered a root beer I said Leap Beer. She got a little sh*tty towards us about her own mistake but it's all good. We sat inside at one of the tables with barstools and enjoyed the excellent beers. We will definitely be back! Enjoy :D

Can't say enough good about Old Coast Ales. Can't find anything like it on the other side of the bridge! If you are in busy downtown St Augustine, I recommend a quick drive or stroll across the Bridge of Lions. The selection of their own craft beers is large and full of variety. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. We usually find a spot at the bar when there's just the 2 of us but they have long tables in the bar area as well as alternate seating including a couch In the room next to the bar. Outdoor seating includes out front or on an outdoor patio in the back. Grab a few of the one of a kind tacos or chips and queso from next door and carry it in to Old Coast Ales and enjoy! Don't forget to look at the board behind the bar to see if you qualify for a free beer paid for by a stranger!

This place is right next to Osprey tacos and it's wonderful. We got here late afternoon for a beer. The bartender let us try a few before we ordered. I ordered the Kookaburra which is a coffee brown ale =delicious and my dad ordered the blonde ale. Also light and delicious. The atmosphere was really nice with plenty of places to sit. We even got some chips and salsa from osprey to supplement the lovely beer. You can choose between 13 oz or 16 oz or you can get a sampler of beers. The decor is very simple and welcoming. Would definitely come back to this place

Quant little place with lots of beer options, 2 cider options and a club soda option. That's it! no expectations. But, fun local atmosphere. Next door has tacos and soft drinks. Dog friendly!

We live out of town, but visit St. Augustine from time to time and have now been to this brewery twice. We really like the ambience of this place and especially like the patio. The beer is always good. However, I prefer unique and fun flavored beer and I feel that the brewery is lacking in that area. There is no food there, but we have ordered from the taco place next door once and the other time got DoorDash delivered there. Overall, we like Old Coast Ales but feel that there is room for improvement.

We stopped by this little gem on our way to the Night of Lights in St Augustine.... had no idea they have been opened for five years. Ugh we have some time to make up!! IMO very few Florida breweries have a full flight of beers where every one of them are tasty. It's hard for us to pick a favorite because they all are good but if I had to pick just one I would pick Static. The staff here was very friendly allowing us to try their different beers so we could take some home. Yes they have some canned!! Oh happy day! They have a little outdoor sitting area when it's not freezing in Florida (which is pretty much every day except the day we went!) So if you're ever in the oldest city or anywhere nearby stop in, say hello and have a delicious Flo-grown beer! We didn't try the taco place next door but definitely will on the next visit... it must be good because they were busy!

Flight with some osprey tacos.

They are a fairly large bottle shop with a wide selection of beers from all over the world. They also have some local breweries on tap but very limited I would say less than six.

My husband had a couple bottles of the Kentucky bourbon ale and when we came back after dinner, he switched to the local Tampa Bay Brewing companies night swim out of Coppertail Brewery. I was super excited. They had the original sin New York style to dry cider, but it's not super dry but it's one of my favorite and very few people actually carried this one from original sin. I was going to switch to the goose Island macaroon stout that they had from 2024, but they wanted $50 for the bottle which is a huge markup from the retail price of about 20 to 22. I did try the cider Mill doughnut from Blakes cidery out of Michigan and it was really delicious. It was nice to have a fall flavor even though it was still 80° outside.

Inside is cozy with comfy couches and chairs - along with your usual bar stools. The drink menu has your normal drinks and a lot of specialty drinks.

Our server was excellent and made some good recommendations. He kept checking on us and talked with us when he wasn't busy. When I went to use the restroom I got a glimpse of their tea room.

Having Tea on Mother's Day with my daughter was the best part of this for me and wish the food was more to really talk about.

Heck, they even have an awesome food truck right outside and the food was amazing! Hubs and I shared fried tomatoes, fish nuggets, and a salmon sammich that came with tortilla chips. Very yummy food that paired well with our flight of beers! I had to abstain that day but I got to enjoy a can of non-alcoholic beer. Hubby enjoyed the flight all to himself! I love pickles so I reeeeally wanted to try the Datil Tickle My Pickle and he said it's spicy and tangy. Sounds like something I'd enjoy soooo I'll have to try it next time when I'm able to drink alcohol again. Bartenders were really friendly and attentive, despite how busy it was on a Sunday. Kids seem to enjoy the place too. If we were locals, we'd be regulars. Oh well! At least we bought merch to remember them by. Til' next time, Hornski!!!
