Traveling to the bay for a visit and decided to veer off the path to try Berryessa based on a. recommendation. The facility is gorgeous with the Berryessa Gap Winery sharing the location - though two different businesses. Nice seating area both dog and family friendly. Good food truck parked there as well - cheesesteaks this Saturday. The beer was ok - what I expect from a local brewery. Four stars as I had a flight and one of the beers keg blew as it was being poured. Basically served a glass of foam I was told would settle down. For a tasting flight I would've expected a new beer as this one turned out very flat. Overall the experience was really nice, but probably not driving that far off the 80 to try again. But if we find ourselves in Winters we'll definitely be back. read more

I've been wanting to check this place out for a while and glad I finally did! Super friendly staff with great beer at a fair price. They also have NA hop water for those who don't want to drink, or you can get wine at the winery next door if beer isn't your thing. I myself got the rice lager which I really enjoyed. The only downside to this place is there's only outdoor seating (covered with some misters), so on a really hot day it may not be super comfortable to hang out long. This was the case when I went, it was tolerable but my beer got warm fairly quickly. I'll definitely be back but on a cooler day! read more

Great ambiance and outdoor seating. Perfect for guests when you have some folks who like beer and those who love wine. I stopped by the wine side for the first time and it's a neat little store. We even got to sample the wine on tap- it was really good! Never knew that existed! They had the Buckhorn food truck which was great. The misters are wonderful on a hot day. When they have a band, the music is always good. read more

Such a wonderful surprise!! Heading home from the lake and stopped here for a drink. We were welcomed and explained the menu, offered to try some beer too. I asked if they had gluten free options (celiac) only to be told that most of their beer is gluten reduced/ gluten free by 5 PPM. That's INCREDIBLE. I was ready to buy everything there and bring it home with me. I had their sour beer and it was perfect in all ways possible. I was grateful for their staff to be so knowledgeable on GF and also having some delicious beers. Sat outside with my beer and ordered from their food truck. Can't wait to come again! read more

I told the bartender that four out of five times that I opened up a tab that I have left my card behind. It's that kind of place. Not that the amazing beer makes you wanna drink so much that you forget your card, but that it's such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere that you have no choice, but to feel that you are already at home (and leave your card behind). I mentioned this to the bartenders in case they could perhaps leave the card with me that time? Alas. Anyway, fast-forward, and I'm walking to my car to get something out of it. A bartender runs out to stop me, doing god's work and looking out. What a guy, etc. Come time to actually pick up my card I ask the name of the bartender (so I can tell Lori, the amazing operator, how much I appreciated his good looking out). Turns out it was Lori's son! Who is also the son of the award-winning brewer. That's the kind of place this is. Family owned, family run, looking after the wider family. What a place to get a beer. read more

This is a great spot. Lots of parking, and the left side of the building is for brews, and the right side is for wine. Lots of outdoors seating, live music, and a food truck. It was a great vibe and the weather was great. The woman at the wine counter offered great recommendations and we bought a bottle to share with friends. Thank you for your hospitality ! read more

My husband, sister & I came to Berryessa Brewery last night to listen to Ten Foot Tiger, and enjoy a beer. What a great high energy band, They played a wide variety of funk, jazz, Latin, pop, rock and folk which was all very danceable. read more

First time here, and gotta say one of my favorite brewery locations. It has a massive outdoor covered area with a massive are to sit so even with a lot people you don't feel crowded. There was a band playing live music as well. 6 5oz sampler was $20. Not a bad deal. I'd definitely go back even though it's a bit of drive for me. read more

Absolutely love this Brewery! Not only is this a little slice of heaven with amazing views, the beers are top notch and staff is off the charts! I love their Lagers & Pilsners and the Seperation Anxiety IPA is always a go to! I also love the diversity of music they play on vinyl! I'm a huge vinyl collector and listen to all genres and I love how you can listen to anything from bluegrass and country to classic rock, jazz, funk, and even hip hop. Definitely one of the more ecelectic and well balanced collections I have seen. The owners treat you like family and are always welcoming. Keep up the great work team and thank you for making it such a memorable experience everytime I visit! Cheers! read more

Great time!! Wine and Beer are amazing!! Food trucks and music are added fun!! Recommended!

We had our wedding rehearsal party at Berryessa Brewing, and it was the perfect way to kick off our wedding weekend! The brewery created exactly the relaxed, celebratory atmosphere we wanted for bringing together our families and wedding party. The setting is absolutely stunning - their spacious patio overlooks rolling hills that glow golden during sunset, creating a magical backdrop for photos and conversation. The rustic-meets-modern brewery vibe struck the perfect balance between casual and special, making everyone feel comfortable while still feeling like a celebration. The craft beer selection is exceptional, with something for every palate, and the staff was so friendly. But what truly made our event special was owner Lori's incredible hospitality. She worked with us ahead of time to make sure all our guests could be accommodated and that there would be a food truck for people who wanted a late night bite to eat. Our families are still talking about what a wonderful time they had - the combination of great beer, beautiful scenery, and genuine warmth from the Berryessa team made it feel like the perfect kickoff to our wedding weekend. We highly recommend working with Lori and team if you need a venue for a larger group, and we can't wait to come back to Winters and visit for a beer (or two!). read more

The food trucks are tasty! Drink prices are reasonable, and there's a great selection of beer. Nice place to go during the spring and summer. It's dog-friendly and spacious enough for guests with kids. Overall, it's a chill spot and convenient spot to hang out. Bands play good music and staff is always nice. read more

Hubby drinks beer & I drink wine.. So this is the perfect place for us... The staff are very friendly & knowledgeable on both sides... He tried several different beers while o had a glass of Rose.. Cousins Maine lobster truck was there when we were. .. Will definitely go back.. read more

There is no food, unless it is a food truck, of which may only come on the weekends. You have to get your own beverages at the bar. I came the first time for the ambience. Watching the sun go down, chill back ground music and a wonderful "double tap". This time We came, it started out great, I could only assume the owner was here and she was wonderful and kind, filled my 2 water bowls for my dogs. But she must have left because after that, the music went so loud that we could barely talk to each other right across the table. The records/ vinyls that were played were rap with vulgar words. When asked if the worker could change the record he said he would not be allowed to change it. When asked if he could at least turn it down, he said he would not be allowed to do that either. We spent more than $100 on drinks in just a few hours. Really hope they figure it out. Will not go back if this is the case and definitely tell all friends. read more

Came here during the holiday week on a rainy day. Lots of outdoor seating thankfully protected from the rain. Had a beautiful view of the hills and some vineyards. Staff is friendly and helpful. Our groups' favorite beer was hands down the IPA. One of the best I've had at a local smaller brewery. Appreciated that they offer 5oz, 10oz, and 16oz pours. What's an added bonus is the attached wine tasting room called Berryessa Gap, very tasty wines and knowledgeable staff as well I would definitely return to both of these locations read more

Berryessa is great. I can't really think of anything bad to say. Their separation IPA is one of the best beers I've every had. It's for hops lovers for sure, but it's just super flavorful and well balanced. Might as well be candy. ha. Great space too. Tons of tables outside. Kids welcome. Games welcome. Come enjoy yourself. They always have food trucks too. The BBQ one they had last time I went definitely hit the spot. Ok - I thought of a criticism - they won't fill your growler from another brewery - which I thought was totally a thing. But that's not enough to knock of a star. Wish I lived closer read more

Really cute beer garden area that's spacious and open. You order your drinks at the small shop inside. There are usually food trucks and misters if it's too hot. It was a great spot to stop off at before heading to Laky Berryessa for boating. read more

We love the beer at Berryessa. In particular, the Double Tap 2X IPA is one of our favorites but they are all high quality. This is a wonderful place for a warm afternoon sitting outside, listening to live music, chilling out. There is a winery as well which we have not tried but it's always crowded and people seem to enjoy themselves. The setting is breathtaking, especially at sunset. You could be a million miles away from Northern California so it feels like a vacation every time you go. read more

Nice little hidden gem just outside of Winters great place to meet friends family and have a drink and a great food truck and live music. We have come here several times before in the past and this time again after our annual family Alzheimer's walk. It was just a super easy place to find for a beautiful day as it was. It's always great to give back to businesses like this who have amazing alcohol. My fav thing there was the trubble bubble it reminded me a lot of a claw spiked seltzer which is great for me cause I can't have beer cause I'm allergic. And plus the buckhorn food truck was there and I definitely got the tritip loaded fries nope sorry didn't share . Definitely recommend for a lazy day out chat kind day with no essence of time. With music all day and live music after 2-3pm, corn hole all day, hay for kids to climb on, dog friendly and normal has a food truck on site. Super friendly staff and you can also fill your growler too. So check em out on your way to or from the glory hole. read more

One of my favorite breweries of all time! From their gorgeous location to awesome beer, this place is perfect. Their seating is outdoors and they sometimes has great live music and food trucks. With the vast and gorgeous scenery of Winters, this place is perfect for sunny days. Most of their beers are IPAs and avid IPA lovers are sure to love them. Not being a big fan of IPAs myself, I did enjoy the Mini Separation Anxiety: light, hoppy, and not too bitter. They do have other options that aren't IPAs, but there's not a lot of them. Line for beer can be a little song, so note that the line can split based on what you need. Left is for pints and half pints. Right is for samplers, growlers, taste samples, and questions. Service and crowd is very friendly and makes the place really enjoyable! read more

Berryessa Brewing Company is a great spot for a drink and some food. We stopped after a hike and had a lovely time. The outdoor patio is super cute with great views of the mountains and sunset.

Not gonna lie. This is my favorite brewery ANYWHERE. If you like IPAs, they have an impressive selection. Separation Anxiety is my favorite IPA in the whole world. I am not usually a fan of sessions, but their session IPA, Mini Separation Anxiety is amazing too. Sometimes you can get that in a 32 oz can to take home as well. 10 bucks for Growler refills which is also a great deal. They have a large covered patio, a band on most afternoons and a food truck. Great place to just come hang out at. Very dog friendly as well! Cheers! read more

Great beers, cool venue. Love the outdoor patio/deck. A bit off the beaten path, but worth the drive.

One of my favorite spots. The view is wonderful. It can get too hot in the summer. Bring a hat, for shade. The prices for water are steep, so brin g your own and spend your money on their amazing wine. read more

Eh... It's ok. We were in the area trying to get some stamps on our passports so we drove all the way out here. And let me tell you, it's really far out. So when we finally got there we were happy to see a food truck, which was good. There were a TON of people out here between the beer room and the wine tasting room. There was almost no place to sit but we wanted to sit inside. However, we realize how small the tasting room was, with really no place to sit but there was a table so we squeeze around it. It was also like 100 degrees outside and the door was wide open. The taproom attendants were very nice and helpful. But the beer was just average. We ordered a sampler but nothing really knocked our socks off or justified sitting in the heat for much longer. So we got our stamps, ate our food and went on our way to the next stop. read more

Berryessa Brewery offers a generous, spacious outdoor seating area, with well-engineered patio coverings and shades that provide ample natural light but also reduce incoming heat. There are several (and I mean several!) long tables with either benches or chairs, so your party is sure to find a spot. Parking stretches out to the back of the brewery, so don't worry if there aren't spots in the front. My friend got a Lavender beer, which was like a cross between a very light beer and kombucha. The lavender and beer flavor were both quite subtle, and seeing as how I don't really like beer, this was a drink I could actually see myself drinking more than 1 sip of. I got a Rose Lemonade, which was a bottled drink of sparkling lemonade with rose flavor. It was subtle but enjoyable. The Buckhorn BBQ food truck has been there both times I've visited the brewery. They serve amazing tri tip, which I always get by ordering the Bunless Tri Tip plate, which comes with French fries and caramelized onions. They are quite generous with the meat portions, which makes this $11 plate stretch for two meals or more for me. With such tender, juicy meat, I'm not complaining. We came to watch our friend perform in a band. The stage is nicely elevated and the music is projected in such a way that it's present but not deafening. They have a good set up! The only two downsides were that their water cups are very small and the water comes out slowly. So bring your own bottle to stay hydrated. Secondly, the hay bale area where corn hole is and where the kids typically play was not sectioned off by ropes like it was on our first visit. This section is literally right next to the parking lot. I would appreciate if they cordoned it off, or if they moved the existing planter boxes to be between the parking lot and the play area, as opposed to between the play area and the tables. Parents are absolutely supposed to keep a close eye on their kids, there are posted signs about this reminder, but it's hard as a parent to have peace of mind knowing that cars will be so close to your kids. I'd recommend bringing some toys for your little ones and some snacks, all to keep them occupied while you enjoy your beer. read more

Big fan of their beers, especially Separation Anxiety and the session Mini Sep. Lots of outdoor seating. When it is really hot, and it can get really hot, they put on the misters, and it makes it a lot more comfortable. Staff is always friendly and they usually have a BBQ truck there that serves some fine brisket. read more

Such a fantastic brewery in the yolo county area. Winters has this hidden wonder on the way towards Putah Creek and Napa Valley. It's on a one way road straight from Davis to Winters so it's quite a convenient and scenic drive to this local hot spot. Berryessa brewery and winery are next door to each other, so if you're ever interested, you can always have a beer on the lovely outdoor seating area and grab some cans of ice cold rose to go. During our visit on Sunday, the brewery had a concert starting later in the afternoon and a delicious bbq style food truck to top it off (referring to Winters local restaurant, Buckhorn). It was tasty times, filled with tri tip and IPAs that have you regretting not putting your card on an open tab. It's pet friendly as well and they have water bowls for your furry friends. The outdoor seating area is covered with shade so have no fear, the sun won't get you here (for those of you coming back from a dip in the creek). Staff is friendly and the taproom has an array of beer that will have you dying to try. Enjoy! read more

Really nice venue in Winters, CA. A wide variety of craft beers at starting prices of $5!

Beer lovers of Northern Solano County rejoice! While Berryessa Brewing Company may technically be at the South end of Yolo County, it's really a blessing for nearby towns in Solano. That's because Yolo actually has some other beer options. Solano, however, is a total beer wasteland. & no, I'm not counting that horrendously huge Budweiser building in Fairfield. Real. Fresh. Local. Beer. That's what it's all about. A couple of my beer nerd friends, who live in Northern Solano County, turned me onto this place. & yeah, it's got the goods. Sure, it's still a pretty bare bones operation. They're only open afternoons/ evenings Fri-Sun. They only have 6 taps that they rotate their limited selections through. But it's the real deal here. & they got this trick growler filler that I've never seen before. If you're anywhere near Winters & enjoy beer that's more about being real/ fresh/ local & less about ads/ marketing, get out to Berryessa Brewing Company. read more

Gotta give some love to my peeps from Winters and bump up the rating from 4 to 5 stars. Even though the setup is the same as when I did the original review, the beer quality is just outstanding. BBC makes the best brews in Sacramento region, including Solano County. Period. There is always a good food truck on premises if you get hungry, and live music, while not everyone's cup of tea, is pretty cool too. Everyone working there, is super nice and Chris and Lori just make everyone feel special. I am glad that I live this close to Winters so I can just take my bike and get my growler filled (for a very reasonable price), while enjoying some good food and friendly crowds with outstanding beer. Keep up the good work guys and I will be there every weekend. Hint: if you're local get there as soon as they open and beat the crowd. It gets super busy after 3 PM...On the same note, maybe it's time to have the brewery open more than just the weekends? Just sayin'.... read more

We have been coming here for a few years now and I am surprised I waited this long to write a review! First of all, you can't beat this location on a beautiful day. Outdoor seating and TONS of it. There are so many picnic tables in front of the brewery and on the side where the wine tasting room is. There is now shade covering over all of the tables, and it's much better than nothing like it was in the beginning. The sun still comes through but it's not as brutal. You can bring your own snacks OR order from whatever food truck is there - you can usually find that out on their website and social media. They usually have a band on the weekends too, which is awesome. You can bring your kids or your dogs! It's a wonderful place and the staff is awesome and super friendly. The beers: YUMMY! My favorite is the Fuerza and sometimes they infuse with jalapeño and that is my total favorite so I hope they bring that back soon! They also have a rice beer that is GF that is pretty tasty! I was surprised to like it as much as I did. You can also get a sampler and tryout several beers in smaller glasses, which is fun if you are a new-comer or like several of their beers and can't decide :). We highly recommend you visit! read more
