Located in a strip mall near Safeway. We sat out on the patio with the dogs. They were having bingo night which was a lot of fun! Great tap list and friendly service. read more

Stellar service and stellar hard root beer! We walked in and within moments were warmly greeted by someone at the bar, the place was pretty packed, so he came out from behind to chat with us and give us the rundown. We tasted a couple things and I ended up going with a pint of the hard root beer, which was amazing. We ended up taking a 6 pack of it to go and I'm still bummed we didn't get more. I also tried a seltzer, which was good, just not what I was wanting in the moment. Boyfriend ended up getting a flight with a few different styles of beers and a seltzer. I tried a few of the brews and liked some of the hazier ones. Brent, who had helped us earlier checked in a few times and made sure we were liking everything, truly such great service and super friendly. read more

Solid beers, though when we went it was a pretty earsplitting round of 80's music bingo. My wife doesn't generally love bars and the clips of hair metal didn't help (though I still like hair metal). I forget which hazy IPA I had, but I think it's their most popular one and I see why. Super drinkable. read more

Service was great. Beer flights were very tasty and loved the tacos. Purchased beer 4 packs and growlers to take home

What went well.... everything! Excellent staff Tiffany and Brent! Service pro's. Cute place that offers extensive taps inside seating and patio. Also retail to go. So many to choose from! And more cool is they do beer mixes. Which is like being a Beerista! You can bring food in which I did. Comfy place. They do have a taster offering. Pints are reasonably priced and they have growlers too. The crowd varied in age and everyone seemed to be enjoying. They do close around 9pm. Definitely reco and hope to stop by again. read more

Stopped in for afternoon brew -Kilty Pleasure. Caramel and malty scotch ale Bartender and local crowd were super pleasant. Were even offered a slice of pizza. Dog friendly and outside food was welcome. read more

Fall River Taphouse - Kilty Pleasure - Brewpubs Near Me - Redding, California

After trying all of the best-rated beer gardens in Redding, California, one stands out and shines above the rest -- Fall River Trap House. Managed by a gentleman named Brent, with a cute little bartender named Tiffany, you'll get excellent service, great IPAs, a fancy liquor-infused hard root beer, a beautiful patio with elegant lighting, heat lamps, excellent interior, and quality locals. Conveniently located -- do yourself a favor: come down and visit, and bring your dog. They love dogs, cats, llamas -- whatever you've got. Feel free to come! read more

I went to the Fall River Taphouse last Friday with my brother and husband and I just have to say Brent is amazing! Best service ever. He was able to help a full house all by himself. He was always one step ahead. Great beer and we got some awesome merch! We will be back next time we're in Redding! Also Tiffany came in at the end of our trip there and she was awesome too. Great service and great conversations. read more

Fall River Taphouse - Numb numb juice - Brewpubs Near Me - Redding, California

You don't have to like beer to like this beer. So...wow. I've recently learned that I like IPAs over lagers. I guess it is congruent with liking bold red wines versus the lighter reds. But if you really want something different and refreshing go in for their sour beers like the Sherbet IPA! It sold out while we were there! They are coming out with a tropical IPA next week so they say. I'm sure it will be good! You gotta do a flight to figure what you like. The flight was $12 for an equivalent what we assumed was 2 pints. The other great thing is you can bring food in. We ordered from the Hawaiian restaurant next door. Yummm. Go to my review about Niu Hawaiian BBQ to learn more. The patrons were local and seemed very familiar with the place. Broad age range. A great playlist from the mid 80s rock genre. Did they know me? While we were greeted and treated very well, the waiter did not help me understand the varieties of beers on the board. I am still a neophyte and so I struggled. Then when he bright the beer he assumed that I knew what an IBU was as he put it in that order. Thank God for smart phones and the internet. It is the bitterness factor. For me, the more bitter the better. With the exception of that amazing Sherbet sour IPA!! read more

Great beer, friendly service, casual and relaxed ambiance. A place where the customers know the staff by name, you can tell many are regulars. The place is clean and the AC blows cold. This would be a great place to grab a drink especially on hot summer days. I really enjoyed the blood knot but the electro drip is a must try! read more

Amazing brewery! Everyone was super friendly, from the staff to the patrons : ) We sat out in the patio and brought in some local pizza. Just a great evening with the family! Oh, and the beer was delicious! Had the Numb and Number and the Numb Numb Juice. Hazy, juicy, and so so smooth. Stop in, grab a pint or two... and don't forget the swag. They have a great selection of hats and other merchandise. Enjoy! read more

Really fantastic. We went to three different breweries on our weekend in the Redding/Red Bluff area and this was hands down the best brewery experience we had. Service was attentive and friendly, beers were on point, and I loved the amount of outdoor seating they have. The space is equipped with hanging lights, a covered area, and fans (because you know how sweltering this town gets). We ordered a flight that comes with 5 beers at the bar, and our server was kind enough to walk the whole thing out for us to whichever table we wanted outside! I've never seen that before. Usually once you're poured, you take the flight yourself and are left to your own devices. What service! Parking is plentiful since it's in a strip mall around various other businesses. Can't recommend this spot enough! Take some beer to-go! read more

How the hell have I never reviewed this place? Fall River make the BEST beer in the North State, hands down. Honestly, they make world class beer--and the fact that they're based out of the Redding area is so cool, and shocking. When my parents first moved to Redding, I was all about Wildcard (RIP). The taproom was in a cool spot, very close to my parents' house, never too busy, had great Modern Times-influenced merchandise, and pretty good beer. But once I visited Fall River, it was all over. Even before Wildcard expanded to the Bay Area and destroyed itself (very sad, honestly), Fall River became my go-to in the area. And don't get it twisted: for a town of about 100K people, Redding has A LOT of good beer. I hope none of the breweries are owned by Bethel people. (Have I mentioned before how much I hate Bethel? How I think they're colonizers and gentrifiers and, as importantly, that their doctrine is hateful, homophobic and dangerous? Remember when they tried to use prayer to resurrect that little girl who died, torturing her grieving family for a self-indulgent, delusional circle jerk? Remember how they're taking over the city politically and exerting their influence in every aspect of life in Redding? Remember how they visited Trump at the White House? FUCK BETHEL. Y'all aren't Christian; you're evil.) Anyway. Apologies for that digression. I've always been impressed by Fall River's stouts and seasonal offerings--their Irish Coffee Stout is a thing of beauty--but everything they brew, even the stuff I don't much care for, is really solid, which is how I rank a brewery. And a couple years ago, they began brewing NE IPAs. Ooooh, man. Lazy Hazy is one of the best Hazy IPAs I have had--and I have had a lot, because I buy into that trend real hard. Numb Numb Juice is super delicious, too. People love this place. A true taproom as opposed to the restaurant/brewery model you see more often in this area, it's always been packed when I've visited--hopefully, with the pandemic, they're making sure people stay pretty far apart--and that's very telling re: the quality of Fall River's offerings. Also, the people are super nice, super helpful. Keep doing what you do, Fall River. Keep brewing those delicious, diverse beers. I hope to see you again someday, when it's safe to travel again. If that ever happens. read more

Stopped by while we waiting for time to pass before we checked in. Great little spot with optional outdoor seating. Unfortunately, it was crazy hot so we didn't get to sit outside. The beers are priced well, especially the to-go beers. Lazy Hazy was great, Nitro was the best here. Nothing too fancy, great taproom with good beer. read more

Fall River makes great beer. Went to the Taphouse for the first time last Saturday. The place is small and was packed but my buddy and I lucked out when two were leaving the bar as we entered, so we didn't have to stand. The first thing I noticed was the place smelled like a litter box. That's not an exaggeration. Distinctly like that odor from a cat's litter box. I do have a more acute sense of smell than most people, so maybe most others don't notice things like that? I asked a couple others and they said they didn't smell it. I hoped the stench would go away as time passed but it was just as strong when I left as when I arrived. If it smells like that the next time I go I won't go back. I'll just continue to go to the brewery which is odorless as it's big and open, literally so during the fair weather months. Other than that, the crowd were friendly regulars and a few them of them well lit. The staff were friendly and accommodating as well. read more

Came in not really expecting much because its a very small place...Jessica served us...she made sure we were well versed in all their beers...I expect no less for a brewery like this...SHE LNEW HER SHIT!!...my hubby ordered house Ale...he liked it...bit then he likes bud light soooo we will just leave it at that....lol.... I ordered the beer flight which is 5 beers of your choice... I had.... Hexagenia OG Dayz Widowmaker Liquid Candy Irish Coffee Cream Stout Hexigenia...tasted like your typical IPA...very tasty...this for me would be like Coors Light to most people...this is my lake beer...11am camping beer OG Dayz...I didnt care for this one but thats just my taste buds...my husband says it taste like a better lagunitas Widowmaker...Its a good IPA...it is a DOUBLE IPA.....smooth for an Double...nice hoppy flavor (Once again...as you all know... HMMH!!!! hoppy makes me happy) Liquid Candy...well okay....now this is a hazy IPA that has pineapple, stone fruit & melon...so I actually ordered this because of the name...and i needed a 5th beer to complete my flight...Im not a fan of hazys or fruity beers...hut this was delightfully surprising!!! It wasnt over fruity...i was so surprised that I liked it....i would actually order it again! Irish Coffee Cream Stout... OH MY GAAAWD!!! I have been waiting this whole time to try this stout (the last beer on my flight)...it is made with the local theory collaborative coffee...when you bring the snifter to your nose the coffee hint smells so wonderful...the stout itself is coffee goodness!!! I would sell my brother for a growler of this...thats how good it is!!! Overall...I would give this brewery 4*s...I would give them 5*s if they had food! So...off to the next beer-gasm! Cheers, The Traveling Tater read more

If you want a good nitro beer and a cool spot to hang out, go here. Service is great too.

Solid beer, no food. One of the most consistent microbrews in NorCal imo over the last few years.

The Fall River Taphouse is in the Safeway Shopping Center on East Cypress near Churn Creek Road in the thriving center of the North Valley, Redding, CA. The Taphouse sits in a small strip next to Starbucks, a Hawaiian BBQ, and Hair Salon. (What's not to love about Beer and Coffee). Parking is plentiful with the large Shopping Center that has a Safeway, CVS, and Lowe's. This is an updated review, as I first reviewed Fall River after they opened a few years back. I'm not sure if I have changed or their beer has gotten so much better, but either way, this place is excellent. I love Sierra, Stone, Lagunitas, Russian River, and several other great Microbrews in California. I honestly think that Fall Rivers Beers are at a level that they can easily go against any of the Breweries previously mentioned. Fall River has been very innovative and has a strong following in Northern California and Southern Oregon. Fall River is a great place to go with a little something for everybody. They have everything from a full-strength Double IPA (Widowmaker) to an Irish Cream Coffee Stout. They have Blonde Ale's, Hazy IPA's, East Coast IPA's, Stouts, Scotch Ale, and their world-famous Hexagenia IPA. The Staff in the Tap Room is excellent, they are super attentive to see that your Beer Mug stays full during your visit. The Bar is a nice L shaped Bar with Handicap Seating at one end, a very nice touch. They have both High and Low Top tables in the Tap Room. There is also outside seating, on the patio, with various tables and chairs. Many Pet lovers bring their Dog's and have a cold one outside with their pouch. Brent and his team at the Taphouse make everyone feel at home in their taphouse. If you're traveling through Redding, give them a shot, you will be glad you did, as this is less than a 5-minute detour off I-5 to the taphouse. For selfish reasons, I'm hoping that you don't because sometimes its difficult to find a seat. read more

The best beers in Redding!!! Insanely good beats the other breweries around and we have visited them all. The finish is so smooth on any flavor; stouts, ipa, and sours!!! read more

Fall River Taphouse - Amazing beers - Brewpubs Near Me - Redding, California

174 people in Shasta County have died of COVID-19 and we're still in the middle of a pandemic. While this death count may be considerably lower than other counties on the West Coast, I was disappointed to stop in for a beer today and find really lax safety precautions. The beer was pretty good, but there was no distancing observed inside, no staff wearing masks upon entry. I get it. We're all tired of this COVID shit. But as public-facing staff exposed/exposing to potentially hundreds of people on a daily basis, not protecting your patrons by wearing face coverings is irresponsible and disappointing to observe. We all need a beer, especially during the pandemic. I think bars, breweries and taphouses are essential to mental health and I recognize the inherent risk of visiting/operating them right now. It's been sad to see incredible places close and amazing business owners struggle during this time. I know it's not an easy time to run a business. But I've seen more than a few businesses, breweries especially, making an effort to keep their staff and patrons safe. Ignoring or loosely following basic safety precautions may gain you favor among patrons who deem them overreactive, fake, or unnecessary, but it is the not the kind of responsible thing to do. read more

This is a Great place to get a local draft beer. I really liked how the atmosphere it was very inviting and it's a good place to hang out with friends. They have an outdoor patio and you can bring your dog there at least someone had a dog here and no one was complaining about it so that was a great thing if you have a dog! beer prices aren't that bad and they don't have any food here so make sure to get a good burger at habit burger before you come over. read more

It's a great place however when our group of six were ordering all went well until my friend who helps run an out of town brewery wanted a flight and was hung on the choices. There was tension/attitude from the get go with the Beer Tender and when he wanted a quick little taste of one beer...and we're talking little taste he was told it's a $1.00. Never in all of our travels has a brewery charged a $1.00 for a small splash. It's a community and culture. The $1.00 and attitude prevented the sale and a longer stay. The Beer's great but maybe have a chat with your employees. They are servers. And the $1.00. W T * read more

Every time I visit I'm treated to a skillfully crafted brew. This last time I tried the Irish Coffee Cream Stout. A-MAZ-ING! If you are afraid of dark beers, this is your gateway dark beer. While the color is dark, the taste is smooth with coffee flavor with a smooth creamy finish. Even the other couple we were with who shy away from dark beers fell in love with this beer. Can't wait to see they have for me this weekend! read more

We we're driving from Sacramento to Mt. Shasta and craving Mexican food. I read fabulous reviews on yelp for a little family Mexican food place in Redding called Casa Rios Grill. It was a little ways off the freeway, but well worth the drive! The service was outstanding and friendly and the food was incredible! The salsa and chips were some of the best we've ever had and thank goodness they sell it to go. We enjoyed a local beer from Fall River brewing Company called Hexagenia. A super flavorful IPA w/ 7.1 % alcohol content brewed in Redding!!! Got online and discovered this Taphouse. Yep, it's in a strip mall, but Bret and Ben made it a complete tasting experience! We totally recommend and loved Fall River Taphouse and the staff was exceptional! read more

Have to give credit to the brewmaster, in the early days they put out some awful beers when they were getting started. THATS ALL CHANGED NOW. Lazy Hazy IPA is winning all kinds of awards and my personal favorite. Hexagenia, also has great flavor. Want a strong beer without the bitterness of a Sierra Nevada Bigfoot? Try a 13% Lip Rippa triple IPA. Honestly the best beer I've ever had... it's that good. read more

Cool little tap room! We stopped by here on a Saturday afternoon between kayaking and Father's Day dinner plans. We were served quickly and able to taste the beers beforehand which is always a plus. I got the kilty pleasure which was super tasty and I fully enjoyed. We sat out on the patio in one of the swings and had a nice time. It was pretty quiet and mellow overall but there were a good amount of people inside & out. I didn't find anything beforehand about dogs being allowed on the patio but we saw two so I am assuming they are! read more

Fun place, big open space with lots of picnic style tables & benches and a few bar top tables with stools. It was trivia night and there were lots of groups (including families with children) and everyone was having fun. The beer was very good and the bartender was very personable and efficient, sorry I can't remember her name. There was food truck "Lambchop & Wolfie with "dogs" . . .
