    Cool vibes. Inside is a little cold as they keep doors open. Service was friendly. I went with a beer slushy and it was tasty.

    Cool place at the beach where you can sit in the sun and have a bevvie. Bartender was cool and on a Monday afternoon, no crowds. They have slushies in addition to many beers on tap.

    This brewery was very close to the condo resort we were staying at for the week so we finally popped in. Easy street parking across the street. Great view of the sound. We entered to a pretty full patio and inside tap room. I liked that they offered indoor, patio and covered patio seating. I got a good chuckle when I started glancing around for a restroom sign....spotted an arrow sign for... litterboxes. hahaha I opted for a Calico Jack Porter... wasn't really a fan of the flavor but....that's just me. We got in & out before trivia started at 6:30 on Thursday. Fun vibe and friendly beertender, worth the stop if you're passing by. Thanks Beach Cat, cheers.

    Awesome local brewery. Great staff with a great relaxing view of the bay. Different food tuck every night . Tonight was wood fire pizza and it was delicious. Bingo on Monday nights. The Blue Catpri slushie was heaven. Remember to always support your local animal shelters.

    this brewery was a refreshing place to stop when on a vacation! got some good brew/cider & chose from their large selection of board games (we chose battleship hehe). sitting on their deck gave me & my mom the most gorgeous views of the sunset. plus the guy working behind the bar was very friendly & welcoming.

    Great beer. Great addition to the community with all the special events to serve Birch Bay and Blaine. These guys take care of the locals. 5 stars. I'm feeling a bit parched, time for a Cats Blue Ribbon fresh hops. A local small business that loves dogs and kids that creates the nectar of the Gods.

    What a great place! We are staying in the resort next door, and we're please (and surprised) to find a craft brewery so close. The taproom is quaint. The outside seating is plentiful and comfortable. We met one of the owners. Nice guy. Very knowledgeable and informative (and friendly). I was able to try several beers before selecting my choice (ok, two). I was also able to find/buy a few cans to take home with me. I will say, the quality of the beer belies the location. In a small, sleepy town one could expect a lower quality brewery. Not this place. High quality all the way. You could relocate this brewery to Seattle, Portland or even Bend and see them being competitive. Come check out this treasure.

    Friendly and fun! SOooo many great brews to choose from! Cozy inside great beach view outside. Come out to BBay in the winter-no crowds and laid back. Check on FB or call to see what's going on-games night, comedy. Lots of stuff. Why can't I post? I'm having trouble with the app. I don't wanna suck. My last review didn't even get posted. Really had a great experience today. When I wanna good beer, this is where I go in Birch Bay. Today my cans of beer didn't taste right so I mentioned it and the beer tender really took time to try it and walk through and figure out what was going on and we ended up choosing a different one and he was just so great. Went way above and beyond! It's nice that even during the busy summer time I still feel respected as a local.

    After a refreshing walk on the beach, I visited Beach Cat Brewing in Birch Bay. Let me share my thoughts on this cozy craft brewery. They have something for everyone: sours, porters, light lagers, hazy IPAs, and they will even have slushies soon (my fav)! The unique variety kept me intrigued. I settled on their Pilsner since I prefer light beers. If you're in the area, swing by and raise a glass to good company, great brews and views of the water! They are dog friendly, and they offer treats to all the pups which my pup highly enjoyed and became best friends with the employee. She was very kind and the service was great! They don't have a kitchen but there was a food truck in their parking lot right outside and I gave them a try. Lumpia Luv was there. There is also a Beach Bar next door where I'm sure you can grab food there too when they are open. They have plenty of outside seating which is great when it's a nice day out.

    It's always my first stop in Birch Bay! There are so many beer choices, and they even have beer slushies! Vibe is super chill, and service is inviting. The food truck options are always a bonus. The view of Birch Bay doesn't hurt either.

    It was one of those first sunshine days of the spring, so on my way home from work, I made my first stop to Beach Cat after hearing about it from co-workers. I had my laptop with me and a beer and some work in the sun sounded ideal. Upon arriving, I realized my dreams of a seat in the sun might have been a bit ridiculous as the entire patio was already packed! They had big picnic tables with a see through cover around to protect patrons from the wind coming off the water. I went inside to order and found a small table that was perfect for me. I got the beach blonde beer which was so good I had to bring home one of their cool designed growlers for my boyfriend to try! They do not do food here, but have menu's for the bar next door which looks like your typical pub food with good prices. Can't wait to go back and try more of their tap list!

    Great Dopplebock at Beach Cat!

You'd never really pay a lot of attention to the building, coming up on it from the street (I couldn't believe it when she turned into the parking lot, thinking she must have had some errand to do first). She had to lead me inside along the speakeasy passage to the tunnel, it was so dark. I thought it was styled very fun and cute when my eyes recovered and adjusted. I wasn't super hungry so I only had the fried breaded pickles and the house battered prawns--both were great, but those prawns were something else. They were some of the best things I've ever put in my mouth--ever! Perfectly cooked, huge and moist and so flavorful. Their cocktail menu is great with lots of choices--we loved our drinks. We also loved Athena, our bartender and server, who had wonderful suggestions for us and was just wonderful in so very many ways. I so want to go back!

It was very chill. They have 2 locations and this one is the more 'lax version off the side of a road. Their other locations is in Chilliwack which is more established as a restaurant type. After talking to the guy at the till, he mentioned that they switch flavours every thursday. That was intriguing and made this place more interesting. I guess it's a place I'll have to come back to time to time. This place is more known for their sours. I have to agree. The strong blueberry one was really good. It was packed with flavour, thanks to the blueberries. Some of the other fruit sours were a bit of a miss. I had high expectations for the strawberry one but didn't really get strawberry unless I thought about it... My fave thing about their flights are the drink cards that go behind each flight glass. It was a nice touch to be reminded of what you got and read the vision behind the drink. (Almost wish the photos weren't of the cans but more of a moodboard to convey the flavour's vibe).
