We were looking for a new place to try some beer and saw a Yelp review regarding Geisthaus and enjoy German style beers. There was plenty of parking and they had a food truck there that day (Cousins Maine Lobster). We were greeted right away and there is a selection of about 7 beers in the German style. We ordered a flight since we had not tried their beers before. There is seating inside and outside. We decided to sit outside since it was a nice day. There were no umbrellas so it got a bit hot. After asking the staff if they had umbrellas, they said yes and brought one right out. (It had been very windy the day before so we're putting away.) We enjoyed all of the beers and decided to try one more called Landbier which was poured slowly. It was very good. The Helles was also good. There was not one we didn't like. We will definitely be back to try some other beers. read more

Didn't realize this place had been open for a few years now! Former restaurant turned brewery, it's a really cool place. Huge inside with a very modern, clean look and feel, plus a large outside seating area also. All German-style beers (no IPAs!!!) and very generous with the tasters. Friendly, patient service and a very cool vibe overall. Food trucks I think rotate through; you can bring your own food as well. Great experience! read more

Very nice interior and plenty of outdoor seating. Plenty of indoor seating options from one to family. Rugrat and pup friendly. 3 sizes to opt for and very reasonable prices. Beer options are about a dozen or so but everything I tried was great. Service was friendly and prompt! Nice to see! Food options are limited to chips and possible food vendor in the parking lot. Plenty of parking too. read more

Nice brewery. Like that their focus is on lagers. Large space. Not many food options, you can DoorDash your own. They had had TVs with the A's on. Nice glassware. Would go back. read more

I guess I forgot to leave a review after coming here many times since their opening this past February. I love this place. I think it's a refreshing break from the IPA, stout and sour heavy featured beers at most other breweries. Their lagers are very flavorful and refreshing. I really liked their Landbier 6 minute pour that's presented with a beautiful foamy head you don't see at other breweries. Their interpretations on hazy, west coast and cold IPAs in lager and pilsner forms are very unique. Service is always excellent whenever I come by myself or with friends and coworkers. They're always in a good mood and welcome you to try beers before committing to a full or small pour. They also have a ton of space inside as well as a spacious outdoor patio. It's been a popular spot for events such as trivia, comedy shows and more. For food, they partnered with an Italian restaurant that recently won best overall and Italian in Sacramento just down the street for an exclusive brewery menu on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Their food is really good, especially their prosciutto wrapped burger and Philly cheesesteak fries. Rotating food trucks appear Friday-Sunday and the brewery is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. My only minor gripe is they aren't closer to me which might be a blessing in disguise since I'd probably gain some pounds if I was within walking or biking distance. I definitely recommend a visit if you're looking for a different type of craft brewery and want a break from the IPAs and sours. read more

Finally made it to geisthaus! Cool spot with indoor and outdoor seating. You can also bring your own food but sometimes they have food trucks here. Convenient location that is located next to the 24 hour fitness so you can get a pump on before you get Crunk. Oh my god the beers here are freaking delicious! They specialize in German beer so all you hazy IPA people should be worn that there is none here. Started off with the six minute four of Landbier and it had the fluffiest head of foam that I have ever seen. While I was waiting for that beer, I got a small pour of aether which was a nice light 3.3% beer. It was freaking crushable light and crisp definitely can down a 24 pack of those with the boys. Tried every other clear beer here and they were all phenomenal. Had a little sample of the Mexican amber lager but just general those aren't my type of beer so I did not like it. The issue is of this place that there was not that many people and this brewery is so good that there should be lines out the door. Perfect brew with perfect beers for the hot weather in Sacramento. This brewery is definitely worth a 2 Hour Drive to drink. read more

First timer, and happened to go during the 1st anniversary Love at first Lager event. Plenty of parking, a good amount of patrons attending the event, along with a food truck. Walking in, I observed a spacious building with ample seating. Although I purchased multiple layers that day, the one that stood out was one that was slow poured into a mug and heated (Doppelbock) So delicious! The experience and ambiance was great! All the staff was very responsive and friendly. Definitely a place to swing by to enjoy some brews. read more

It was my first time here. My friend works nearby and wanted to try out Trivia here. They play Triviolgy style trivia which is awesome. The place is so cute and they did a nice remodel. There is a nice outside patio, lit up with string lights in the evening. The inside has an industrial vibe and is really spacious. They don't have food but you can order from the great Italian place next door (Ippolito's) that will deliver to the brewery counter. I tried their 2 lightest beers as it was so hot today, that sounded more refreshing than my usual choice. Both beers were tasty and light but still flavorful. I definitely want to go back and try more. The staff was really nice. The Trivia host was very engaging and trivia was fun. It looks like they host other events like comedy nights and an upcoming Oktoberfest which all sound like fun. Check them out! read more

Did not know this place existed! Parking was simple, staff were friendly and the beers were moderately priced. The space was clean, nice patio, and busy with events on a Friday evening. If in the area, check them out (no pictures this time, too busy sipping the beer and people watching). read more

My brother was in town and wanted to go out for beers. This was his pick. I almost missed it driving by. I thought there is no way that is a beer place. It is huge inside and out. The bright umbrellas for the outside tables will leed you into the tap room. Staff was friendly and helpful. You can bring your own food or get some nums from a food truck at the place. The beer wasn't for me but that doesn't mean it's not for you! read more

2/14/2025 - I'm not much of a beer drinker, but it was Valentine's Day, so I asked my husband if he wanted to try the new brew pub. Of course he did! So off we went, and arrived at Geisthaus Brewing Company shortly after their Friday opening time (2:00 pm). We walked in, and were greeted by staff. The taproom is welcoming and comfortable. The menu is simple, 7 beer choices, one of which is a slow pour (takes 6 minutes). I had never heard of a slow pour, so that's what I ordered. The Slow Pour California Pilsner ($7). My husband ordered the Dunkel. Most of the seats at the bar were taken, so we found a cozy little table on the upper level (2-3 steps up) next to a window. The pub had a nice crowd, with some babies and pups in attendance, too. While waiting, I googled "slow pour" beer. "A 'slow pour' beer is characterized by a very thick, dense, and layered head of foam created by pouring the beer slowly, often using a side-pull faucet, which results in a visually impressive presentation and can enhance the beer's flavor by trapping volatile aromas and providing a softer mouthfeel due to the reduced carbonation release; this technique can take several minutes to complete, allowing the foam to settle and build up in layers." Ok, sounds good to me. Can't wait to try the slow pour beer. They don't have food, other than some chips and salsa, but there was a food truck, so we ordered a burger to split. Then my slow pour arrived. The most beautiful glass of beer I have ever seen (see my photo). The google description was spot on. The beer had a very thick head of foam, not a lot of carbonation, and was delicious. While sipping on my slow pour beer, I wondered, what does Geisthaus mean? So I googled that, too. Spirit house, or ghost house. Cool. Now it's time to get off my phone and finish my delicious beer. read more

Great service and ambiance. It would be great for large groups or meetings. There have regularly been food truck options. The beer is ok but immature. A little on the yeasty side for German styles. This is a mismatch for the space and service, which were great. It will get there though. read more

Geisthaus is serving up some seriously on-point lagers at their location in rancho. I've tried a few of their pilsners, including a 6-minute pour version, and they all have satisfied all my expectations for solid lagers. read more

Checked out Geisthaus with a buddy recently to give it a try since it's one of the newer spots in town -- and I'm glad we did! The atmosphere was super chill, and every staff member we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. It had a great laid-back vibe -- the kind of place you can just kick back, enjoy a beer, and not feel rushed. At my friend's recommendation, I ordered the Fog Lair, and it did not disappoint. Super smooth and refreshing -- definitely something I'd order again. They also had a food truck outside for anyone feeling hungry (I'm guessing the lineup rotates, but it's a nice bonus either way). Love discovering a cool new spot like this that isn't overcrowded and actually feels like a neighborhood gem. Bonus: they're dog friendly, so you already know I'll be back -- next time with my wife and our dog Lobo. He's got high standards, but I think this place will pass the sniff test. read more

I'm a big fan of this place. I've been here a few times, and I've always enjoyed my experience. The beer is great. I repeat, it's great. I came once with a beer connoisseur, and he reported that this is some of the best German style beer he's had in the states. It's all counter service. Everyone's very friendly and knowledgeable. It's a vibe. It has a very classic, but modern aesthetic. I really appreciate the outside patio. There is ample seating with umbrellas coverage. It's great on a beautiful day. They don't have a dedicated food menu, but it is food truck based. There were some Italian company there last time however I just got some chicken wings. Answer, I really enjoyed the chicken wings. They weren't overly done or too bread-y. For the midtown/East sac/downtown people, this may seem like a track, but remember it's Sacramento, so it's short in the grand scheme of things. I think this is nice switch up from the late afternoon or early evening Sac yard outings. read more

Just a brief review of a brief experience at Geisthaus. Not that I didn't want to enjoy the venue longer, just didn't have the time. Greeted upon entry. Very very clean establishment with plenty of seating. There were a few TVs which was nice. Not a lot else going on, although I noticed the cornhole at the entry. With warmer weather, the outside seating area looks nice! The ale was really good. They do have trivia night and a comedy night as well. I found this place to be fairly nice overall. I'll have to revisit and provide an update. I noticed they do have a partnership with Ippolito's a short walk away which is a huge plus. The chairs weren't my favorite comfort wise. I guess drink more and you won't notice! :) read more

So excited that we have a new brewery in the Rosemont area. We really needed this here, and being lovers of craft beer.. we are just so excited to be able to have a good brewery just a few minutes drive near us! read more

Geisthaus Brewing Company - Landbier and Hallowed beers! - Breweries Near Me - Sacramento, California

Geisthaus Brewing Company, Sacramento, CA - February 14, 2025 I came in with my wife a little after 2 pm on Friday (Valentine's Day). Be sure to check their hours for other days of the week. The interior is modern and inviting with simple cement finished floors, a nice long bar with a dark ceiling, clean red brick wall behind the bar, and lots of shiny beer glasses surrounding the beer taps. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoors, there is an open patio with a couple cornhole games. Juju Burgers food truck was there as well. We ordered beer at the front counter as we came in. They don't do beer flights, but they will give you small tastes. I tried their Helles Pilsner, which was flavorful but a little lighter in body than I was hoping for. I then ordered a 3 oz Dunkle, which was heavier and more flavorful. My wife ordered a pint of the California Pilsner slow pour. It takes about 5 minutes to make that one, so we were given a number and found a nice high top table next to the window. My wife's beer came out shortly thereafter. It had a beautiful dense foam head that almost looked like soft serve ice cream you could lick. The aroma was enticing and the flavor was really good. We ordered a burger from the food truck, and it was very tasty as well. They are dog friendly as long as your pooch is on a leash and well behaved. We brought in our little puppy in a stroller and she loved it. Fun spot to hang out. read more

Really excellent traditional European lagers. Czech Pils 12* in particular is great. Proper glassware, except for the small pours go what looks like a stemless Reisling glass. A small tulip glass would have been nice. read more

I decided to check this place out since it's new and super close by. They had a great beer selection and I really liked the dark beer. The inside was open and spacious and you can see the big brewing tanks through a giant glass window, which was pretty cool. Not something you see every day. The outdoor area was also really nice and chill. I saw they have different food trucks each day which is awesome, and there was a sign for trivia nights. I definitely want to come back and check that out. Overall it's a fun spot to hang out. read more

Geisthaus seems like a great new addition to the local beer scene! We checked them out for their grand opening and were not disappointed. The space is large, dog-friendly, and very nice with both indoor/outdoor seating and plenty of parking as it shares a lot with Stardust next door. They had a food truck as well and have a calendar on their website for when upcoming trucks are scheduled. They specialize in lagers and despite just opening, had a good selected variety available! I tried several of their beers and they were solid! I will definitely look forward to coming back and trying the rest, and seeing what else they release in the future. Everything from the space itself to the beers and small details like glassware, coasters, menu board, and overall vibe seemed very polished like it was a brewery that had already been well-established for a long time. And despite it being very busy, they did a good job of staying efficient handling the opening day crowd and the line moved fast. We will be back for sure! read more

Really nice ambience inside and out, prompt, and friendly service and excellent German style beer in a convenient location!

For a brand new brewery with an impressive location (off 50/Bradshaw/Micron), it was pretty empty on a Saturday evening. The beers we had were good, but nothing too spectacular. The place was VERY clean, almost too clean. I guess I prefer more edgier establishments with personality and life. There isn't any decor. Not that I'd expect a bunch of German decor! Wasn't able to get any food but will return again...at least the staff is entertaining and witty. Just get some stuff on the walls...I mean, there aren't even any stickers in the bathroom stalls!!! What is this a Starbucks?!?! Perhaps if y'all can do a few music venues each month, you can increase word of mouth and such. Great to have something right near Stardust (Vintage Emporium)... HEY! What's the deal with all the dead landscaping?!?! Do you pay someone to maintain the sprinklers?!?! Such a beautiful restoration of your facility but the outdoors is starting to get dismal and apocalyptic! read more

The service was good and the spot is really nice.! The German pilsner is a good beer to start with.

Geisthaus Brewing Company - Landbeir on the right - Breweries Near Me - Sacramento, California

I was really looking forward to trying this brewery, but from the moment I arrived in the parking lot I began to doubt the outcome. Landscaping is void or dead. There is a huge patio with string lights and a limited number of tables and chairs, but nothing else, no plants, no decor or anything to look inviting. The interior has a similar feel to the patio. It is a large space with tables and chairs, a service bar, but no decor to make it interesting. The beer tender was helpful and offered insights and tastings of their beer menu. Unfortunately, they don't offer flights. So if you want to sample several of their beers, it means standing at the bar slowing down service, while you figure out what beer works for you. Although they were open to several tastings, it just doesn't seem efficient to stand in a service line while doing so. The beer offering is German style lagers and pilsners, but for my palate was on the lighter side of the style and didn't differentiate enough in flavor profiles. I greatly appreciate the effort to provide a different beer experience than other local breweries, but wish they would dive deeper into the range of styles by including a Märzen/Oktoberfest, Bock, Doppelbock or Eisbock. Plus, adding some interior and exterior decor would go a long way toward making the experience pop, instead of being cold and uninteresting. Lastly, they do not have food, except for a limited food truck schedule and ordering delivery from an adjacent Italian restaurant. read more

If you like refreshing, light, and/or German-style beers, this is the place for you. While they don't directly serve food, they have a food truck outside almost daily. They post a schedule of the food truck on their website and Instagram, making it easy to know what food will be there. The general vibe of the place is very casual, with a mix of standard and large seating areas for all group sizes. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the drinks they serve. I've gone a few times now, and I plan to keep going. read more

This place is a perfect addition to the craft beer scene in the Sacramento region! In a sea of IPAs here you will find top notch German and European style lagers and pilsners (the Palingenesis is my fave). The place has loads of seating indoors and out. The trivia night is super popular and fun. Make sure to check out their website or socials for their food truck schedule! read more

Large, open and inviting place to have a beer. There was a food truck and outside patio and non alcoholic drinks as well. Plenty of parking.

If you like lagers and pilsners, this is your place. Great tasting beer and great atmosphere.

Service was horrible. Came in and was greeted by one of the employees who had a major attitude problem. I understand people have bad days but for someone who comes in and just wants to relax and enjoy a beer this is not good customer service. I don't usually give 1 star but in this case I'm done. Plenty of small businesses/ breweries to go to in Sacramento that I can patronize. If I had to take a guess this is possibly the owner read more

I really enjoy going to this Brewery. Their beer varieties rotate but are Lager centric; nevertheless, there is something for everyone. They have really nice glassware that is also for sale in addition to some apparel merch. This is a kid and pet friendly establishment. There is no kitchen on site but that is remedied with food trucks on site that also rotate. The staff are really cool/friendly and extremely knowledgeable about beer in general. The inside is really nice and clean and the outdoor Biergarten is decked out with fire pits and string lighting. Cool local treat! read more
