We visited Pfeiffer last week. It's very comfortable. The service is great. The beer is great -- they just won 3 gold medals in the recent San Diego County Craft Brewing Competition, not bad for a newer brewery (they told us that the brewery has been around for 2 1/2 years). We tried Good On Ya, an IPA that is excellent, and brought home a 4-pack of the gold medal winning Likewise, which we will likely try tonight when our son stops by. One of the patrons chatted with us and made sure that I tasted a A Cloak for Every Occasion, an outstanding imperial stout (thanks for the surprise, Darren!). If Darren is representative of the regulars, this is a great place to hang out.

IPA's, new Z, a Hazy, a local favorite etc

Do, NOT sleep on this spot. It is a beer friendly spot and needs it your attention. They have barrel aged beers and strong beer poured 5 oz pours. And that's a plus. Fantastic service, and overall a new spot that needs you to give it a shot. Former Dueling Ducks location, Pfeiffer Brewing delivers what 's couldn't. Tasty secret beers. The playlist is new dark wave 80's which is an absolute plus, and the servers are more than knowledgeable in their craft as well as what's served. I had a hoppy flight as well as a few barrel aged beers that were mind blowing. Anaheim never disappoints. It's my home when it comes to brews. Stop by for a pint or 2. The hazy is good, the saison is a ginger Jasmine fusion that's delicious. This little spot took me on a journey that I never expected. Come by and try this lovely spot. I'd give it a 5 but I wanna come back to this lovely spot. To be Continued.

We've been to Pfeiffer Brewing many times, and it's always a place we enjoy coming back to. When we stopped by again on Saturday afternoon, the taproom was completely packed--clearly a well-loved local spot! The vintage character and relaxed brewery atmosphere make it special. I especially enjoy their lagers, which are crisp, smooth, and easy to drink. This time, the distinctive beer mug made the visit even more fun. Great beer, lively energy, and plenty of personality. We'll definitely be back again!

It was our first time but not the last time. They have a very good selection of beers. I highly recommend them. We didn't tried the food but we noticed food trick was setting up outside. A very comfortable environment inside.

Stopped in here with my grandfather and cousin to check this place out. Apparently my grandfather (who grew up in Michigan) was familiar with this brewery which started in Detroit in 1889 - so it brought some nostalgia to him as he drank the Pfeiffer's Famous brew. I tried their stout which is on the menu as "A Thing Called Love". It had nice earthy notes and was a solid choice. They also have a seasonal non-alcoholic drink called Hops Water which is carbonated water infused with hops. I had a sample of this and noticed it also had some fragrant floral notes too. Currently there's no food available but the owner said that on certain days/evenings food trucks would be scheduled to be parked outside for patrons. He said they're also looking to expand the space of this venue to provide more food and seating/space options in the future. Space is cozy yet clean and bright. Service was quick and people are all friendly here. Located in a small strip block of businesses with about 20 or so parking spots. Across the street from Brewery X and down the street from Camelot Golfland.

The newest sour. Yummy

I love going here. The drinks are always delicious and the bar staff are amazing! It's a nice place, the bathrooms are always clean which is a plus. Definitely one of my go to spots.

Across from Brewery X, there's a hidden brewery spot! My boyfriend and I wanted to try it out to get a quick drink in before golfing nearby! I got the Bruges Cruise and it's the perfect mix of wheaty and fruity! There's a decent amount of seats and also some games set aside to use! You can also do samples to get the drink you want for sure! Plenty of parking compared to Brewery X. I suggest checking this place out if you're nearby or just need a chill hangout place with your friends! There's a food tent out front to grab a quick bite as well.

Beer after work? Sure why not, after a hard days work. Go visit this local brewery with a great atmosphere, friendly staff and ice cold funny named beers. I visited this brewery that came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. Find a partner or two to go have a drink at this awesome brewery. Cheers amigos

A group of our friends were trying to go to Brewery X but they were having a event and there was no parking in the lot. (Seriously...where do you park if it's full?!) Pfeiffer is across the street in the midst of businesses and randomness. Aka tons of parking for weekend drinking! :) The drink menu had fun names and I settled on a $18 ice pop flight. The drinks are tasty and I love the logo and decor. There are some snack options (gourmet pretzels) but no kitchen. They let us get pizza delivered which was nice.

My family and I got invited to go to this cool Brewery with our friends we consider family so we brought our kids since it's all ages. I didn't really feel up for going since haven't been feeling great, but we wanted to support the band and our friend so we went for a little while. It's in an industrial parking lot with other businesses surrounding. Really familiar with this area we used to live close to here years ago and my old dispensary used to be in the same area as this Brewery so was kind of cool to bring back memories. This band our friend works with A Static Lullaby was having their Vinyl release of their album here at the brewery, thought that was so awesome of them so of course had to support. They had food people outside where you can order smash burgers and fries. We ordered drinks first inside the employees were all so friendly with a smile, I love the drink names. I got this raspberry beer which was sour and tart didn't really like that it was a beautiful color though, don't really drink much so had a couple sips and didn't drink the rest. The place was packed to celebrate the bands Vinyl release, everyone had good vibes the music was awesome they played their album then some other good jams. We ordered food outside for us and the kids, we got two smash burgers, a hot dog and 3 fries which were so salty our mouth puckered no to those haha the burgers were good but not the best we ate outside then went inside to hang for a little longer. They have a lot of cool decor in the brewery, they have lots of tables and seats too which is really nice, I wanted to take so many photos but was way too busy to be able to. It was so busy it was hard to find a seat but some of their friends let us sit we didn't stay long but we had a great time. Thank you so much to our friend who invited us, and to the employees here for awesome service with a smile and really cool beers and atmosphere. I would recommend checking this place out if you enjoy beer, good vibes and music. Music soothes the soul. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha

I absolutely fell in love with this brewery and haven't stopped coming back since! It's located right across from Brewery X--which, let's be real, is always packed with no parking, no seating, and long lines for beer. This spot, on the other hand, is a total gem. There's plenty of parking, super comfy seating, and the beer? Absolutely delicious. The vibe here is unbeatable--chill, welcoming, and fun. They rotate food vendors, which keeps things fresh, and regularly host events like trivia nights and comedy shows. This is 100% my kind of brewery. I'm so glad I stumbled across it--and shoutout to Geoff the bartender for top-notch service every time. Can't recommend this place enough! Only recommendation: maybe having some games (connect 4, etc)

Came here on a mini brewery tour since we hadn't been out in a bit. My girlfriend and I brought our dogs with us to check out this new small brewery. It's awesome! The branding was spot on I work in marketing and the first thing I notice in a business is if they have an identity of their own, and they do. The bartender was great, very nice and friendly she came to greet our dogs, the owner took some time to tell us the history of Pfeiffer brewing and how it used to be one of the largest beer companies in the country ages ago. He also came by to greet the pups as well. The decor is cool and the logo was drawn by the Walt Disney company which I found interesting. Anyways, the beer selection is good which is nice because I hate going somewhere and finding 10 of 12 beers are IPAs. I had the Chocolate berry buzz which was nice and smooth with a fruity hint. The Lavender B. Wit was what my partner ordered and it was nice and refreshing as well. The selection is great, pilsner, lager, stout, seltzer, etc. They have a good amount of parking, seating is plentiful and the food truck there at the time was good I approve. Would I come back. Yes, absolutely! While other breweries that started years ago are fading back with no identity or a stagnant beer selection Pfeiffer has a creative beer menu and rich history that leads to a good brand and identity.

Take home Pfeiffers famous beer!

Brewery X is one of my new favorite breweries in the area! It's huge with a lot of indoor and…read moreoutdoor seating and a lively ambiance. They have a lot of screens throughout the brewery to watch the game, and there are food trucks with a variety of food. It gets pretty busy on weekends and on game days, so parking can be hard at peak times. Both the huckleberry and baja sipper seltzers were really good and sweet, and the baja sipper one tastes like mountain dew baja blast. We also got the bronx bomber pizza, which comes with marinara, mozzarella, pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, jalapeno, garlic, and parmesan. I've heard good things about the pizza here, but it came out even better than I expected. The crust is thin but still soft and crisp. They do online orders for the pizza, but not on the weekends. We wanted to do a half and half pizza to try another kind, but they don't do that on the weekends either. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Probably the busiest brewery in Anaheim--and that's saying a lot…read more We tried visiting on a Friday night and couldn't find parking anywhere nearby. The lot was completely slammed, with a line of cars cruising and waiting for spots to open up. The surrounding industrial buildings weren't any better, with completely packed lots despite the heavy tow risk. Since we were in the area for a couple of days, we decided to come back the next afternoon, and the parking situation was much more manageable. It's easy to see why this place draws a crowd, though unfortunately, it's not for the beer itself. The industrial space is massive--both inside and out--with plenty of seating. There are screens everywhere, including a giant one on the patio that makes it a great spot for watching sports. You'll also find several stationary food trucks on-site serving up comfort food ranging from pizzas to loaded fries. It's very family-friendly in the afternoon hours, though the vibe likely shifts quite a bit once the sun goes down. The main issue--and the reason for the 3-star rating--is that this is a brewery, not just an event space, and the beer simply didn't impress. While there's a wide variety on tap, they don't offer tasters or flights, and everything is served in disposable plastic cups. You're forced to choose between half or full pours, which makes sampling more than a couple of beers a bit risky. To top it off, prices are fairly high with very little cost difference between half and full pours, making it clear they're pushing volume (and pitchers) over craft exploration. Ultimately, if you're looking for a lively social hub to hang out with friends, Brewery X is a solid option. But if you're searching for genuinely great craft beer, there are much better choices around.

I served tables for 8 years, and I'm honestly the easiest-going patron you could ask for. But when service is this bad, and I know what good and poor service looks like, I can't not share my experience. We came in with a party of 12 on a Sunday afternoon, and the restaurant was nearly empty. That should mean attentive, proactive service. It was the opposite. Our waitress wouldn't take the kids' drink orders at the same time as the adults'. She took the adult orders first, waited to deliver the beers, and only then came back for the children's drinks. It made the start of the meal needlessly slow and clunky. We were also told the beer menu was current, then ordered two beers that, unironically, were not on tap. My friend and I went to check the physical draft menu at the bar, which visibly annoyed our waitress. Later, two beers we did not order showed up at the table. We explained there was an error, and again--unironically--the wayward beers showed up on our tab. No one got any water, and honestly the service was so poor and attitude was so unpleasant, no one bothered to ask for any water. We sat there parched and deflated. Speaking of tabs... The worst part came at the end. We waited nearly 30 minutes to be cashed out, and while we waited, a table of two sat for several minutes without anyone acknowledging them. They eventually left without ever having their order taken. In a nearly empty restaurant, that's hard to understand. We had planned to split checks, and our waitress even offered to do so. But when we began explaining the breakdowns, she looked annoyed and stared blankly until one of us gave up and offered to put everything on a single card, since the wait had already dragged on so long. The food and beer selection are usually the draw here, but good beer doesn't make up for service this disengaged. Every simple request we had was met with disinterest, as if we were putting the wait staff off by requesting, um, service.I hope management takes a look at what's happening on the floor, because this isn't the Karl Strauss experience I remember. 1 star

Let me tell you why I keep coming back here…read more It's not just the beer, although Bootleggers has plenty of that. It's the patio. There's something about the outdoor space here that makes Bootleggers feel like a little beer oasis tucked just far enough away from the hustle of downtown Fullerton. There are plenty of covered tables, lots of shade, and a large, permanently covered section with a giant TV showing sports and other important television events. When they have live music, it's usually the kind that actually improves the atmosphere rather than taking it over, you know, good musicians, good music, but still chill enough that you can have a conversation. And, of course, there's the beer. They have a really solid and diverse selection, with several IPAs, stouts, seltzers, and other options usually available, plus a selection of beers from other local breweries. It's hard to imagine coming here and not finding something you like. If you can't you're just an openly hostile person. Consider meditation. There's a food truck parked along the side that has basically become part of the Bootleggers landscape. And while outside food is no longer allowed, that's not really a hardship because the food is actually pretty damn good. The sandwiches, salads, and other offerings are all solid, but the fried pickles are the real reason I keep coming back. They're cut lengthwise, breaded just right, and fried until they're perfectly crunchy. Basically big, tart, crunchy submarines of fair food fun. I have a difficult time going to Bootleggers without ordering them. Every. Single. It's close enough to downtown Fullerton to walk to, but just far enough off the beaten path that the patio feels removed from the usual bar scene chaos. The street is nearby, but you barely notice it. It's just a nice place to sit outside, drink a good beer, listen to some music, watch a game, and hang out for a while. Sometimes you don't need another crowded bar with loud music and a $16 cocktail. Sometimes you just want a good beer, some shade, and a plate of ridiculously good fried pickles. Bootleggers does that really well.

This place has a fun chill vibe. We went on a Thursday when they were doing boombox bingo. My…read morefriend won the black out game and got a $20 gift card.
