    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Stopped by for beer and lunch driving up the 395. Beautiful day in December with a good crowd enjoying the mild weather on the patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is indoor seating when the weather is not as favorable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Both beers were very good, JLB is a known for decent beer. What surprised me was the food truck, it was absolutely amazing. I went with a carne asada quesadilla that was amazing. Everything on the menu and other people's plates looked great as well. Highly recommend the short diversion to June Lake, 2 miles, for beer and bites. In fact it's now on my list for a couple of days over the summer. Cheers

    What a cool place! A short walk from where we are camped, Golden Pine RV Park... They offer a great selection of their award winning beers! We had the Hockey Fight IPA and the Deer Beer Brown Ale both are awesome! Very friendly and helpful staff! Loved the suggestions! Cool vibe, music cranked and fun decor outside like Adirondack chairs made out of skis, lift chairs to sit in and even a dead gondola outside haha! Theres inside seating as well as bar seating. There's also a large shaded area of picnic tables outside and their on site food truck "La Parilla" has killer food! They seem to be a staple in this small community and I definitely plan to come back before we head home! Highly recommend! Locals and visitors! Enjoy!!

    Best brewery in June Lake (not sure there are any others), but still the honors are there and worth a visit if you are visiting the Mammoth Mountain area. And this is coming from a craft beer fan. We stopped here after a fall hike and were not disappointed. I have had their beer and thought it was pretty good, so worth coming to the tap room to try out some others. They have some flavorful IPAs with fun names (Dipsh!t Dragon or Ninja Turtle. Hockey Fight and Juiced Marmont were once I tried off mountain). [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have inside and outside patio seating and normally have a food truck cooking up something good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking can be difficult but don't give up, it's worth it

    Deer Beer Brown Ale

    Came here to get beers after a hike. I forgot my ID in the car so ran back to grab it when they asked me too. They ended up giving me the beer for free! Super nice people, and the beer is good especially on a hot day.

    Service and drinks are great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Vibe is chill.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We like it here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seating is very limited.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]If they had more outdoor seating and covered seating that would make this place perfect!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We came and it was very sunny and the sun was blasting us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    June Lake Brewing is such a great brewery, honestly one of my favorites given the location, selection of beers and staff friendliness. My friend Katie has been representing this brewery for years and when I came with her this time around I quickly understood why it was one of her favorites. We spent everyday here and I honestly can't wait to come back again. June Lake Brewing is the only brewery in town and also the only non-cocktails based spot to grab a beer or a cider. It's in walking distance from any of the motels downtown so easy to get to. It's a little tucked away off the main road but there are plenty of signs to find them and if you ask around everyone knows where it is. An indoor / outdoor concept brewery. Indoor is smaller but it'll still fit a good amount of people with an L shaped high top bar and a few tables inside. Outside there are a bunch of picnic tables and also some heaters for when it gets cold. The majority of people sit outside as it's just so beautiful. Dogs are welcome outside near the picnic benches. Inside there are two individual bathrooms but I didn't scope them out. The staff here are so welcoming and friendly. Coming here over the course of two days we really got to meet most of the staff and everyone was so nice and welcoming. I know dealing with tourists can sometimes get a little annoying but there wasn't any of that attitude here. They are grateful for all of their customers and instantly make you feel super welcome. Everyone was friendly, fast and knowledgeable around the beers. 5/5 for the vibes! Prices are extremely reasonable and flights are $12, those are fun and I did a few to get to try the majority of their drinks. They have live music currently on Saturdays, bingo on Sundays and trivia on Wednesday. It was nice hearing some live music when we were there. They don't have their own food here but there is a food truck parked outside that we frequented a good amount. Serving up classics, Mexican staples and desserts it's much needed when you find yourself here sipping beers for hours like we did. My ranking from most favorite to least favorite (but still liked) of the beers/drinks I tried would be: FAVS! 1. What the fruit kettle sour 2. Oishii Japanese lager 3. Hellraiser Kolsch Honorable mentions in order 4. Bang Sauce Cider 5. Lager for Jogger 6. Hockey Fight IPA

    We came to the June Lake Brewery after hiking to get some refreshments. Although I am not a beer drinker, I enjoyed the hard seltzer mixed with "what the fruit Kettle Sour". The Kettle Sour was too sour by itself. When it is mixed with the hard seltzer, it was just the way I like it. It was delicious and refreshing. Don't get fooled by the red color and sweet taste. This drink does contain alcohol, more than some beers. My husband had the flight of beers where you can select four different drinks. That is the best option if you cannot decide what you want. You can also ask to sample the beer before deciding. Staff here is friendly and service is quick. One drawback is that they don't serve food. There is one food truck parked right outside the brewery but I wished there were more food options. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance of this place is lively.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    JLB is a true Eastern Sierra hidden gem. We made a stop here on the way to Mammoth and I am glad we did. While they don't serve food here, there is a food truck on site. We grabbed some tacos from the food truck that were great. The beer at JLB is what shines. We ordered the What the Fruit Sour and the Peach Hop Water. The sour was amazing. One of the better sours I've had in a while. The hop water was good, but not much hop or peach flavor. I'd like to see that bumped up a notch. I also sipped the ninja XPA that they were trying to clear out and that was a super tasty and balanced take on a pale ale. The service here is counter service only where you order your drink and then pick it up. I always get a bit peeved when the minimum tip on the screen is 20% when I'm ordering the drink and picking it up. The space at JLB is definitely more of a summer space. They do have some seating indoors but luckily it was a nice day when we visited. I don't know that JLB would have been as busy on a chilly day. The outdoor space is incredible though. Lots of covered and open seating. I'll stop by JLB again, but I'll most likely wait until next summer! See you soon!

If you plan on eating, head inside and wait to be seated. Once you're seated you can order from the QR code on the menu or order from the counter and tell them your table number. The menu was super sticky and dirty and I don't like when I have to tip before receiving service which is the only option when you order from the QR code unless you want to leave cash at the end. The flatbread pizza was pretty bad. My kiddos only took a couple of bites. I tried it and the bread was pretty tough. The quinoa falafel bowl was just ok. The salad portion was refreshing but the falafels were super dry. The service was lacking, the person who delivered our food was not friendly and I kept getting overlooked at the counter when I tried to order drinks.

Like Taco Bell, you pay in advance. Unlike Taco Bell, you are expected to leave a tip (for service), before you realize you will receive no service. Choose your own seating, call up the QR code (which asks you to enter your phone number, but you can work around that) and then gives you a sterile list for a menu. It's a distillery, but do not talk to the bartender. Order a margarita from the (surprisingly inexpensive) Taco Tuesday menu and it comes with a hard, dried citrus something floating on top that adds nothing to the experience of the drink (but does eliminate the need for the bartender to keep a fresh supply of citrus on hand). Otherwise, the margarita tastes OK. Not great. Your beet salad will not be "dressed" because that would take effort. Instead the dressing will be drizzled across the top and not even really touch the greens. Your burger will probably be tasty, as my husband's was. Your sweet potato taco will probably have too many raw onions across the top but otherwise be tasty as mine was. You will not interact with anyone other than your table companions. Even with his tasty burger, my husband called it a "soulless experience." Because the food itself seems to be decently cooked (though with minimal effort), this may be your spot if you are good with Taco Bell.

The ordering system is great and straightforward, you order and pay on your phone and then food appears straight to your table! Genius, convenient and perfect for groups as there's no splitting the bill awkwardly at the end. And the dog friendliness is so clutch, our pups always enjoy the sunshine and rest. Really great spot I would recommend in a sea of terrible touristy Mammoth dining establishments.

There was a solid local vibe and constituency enjoying the beers here. The bartender was friendly, talked to us a bit about the beers and was quick to provide samples to help us make a selection. I chose the red ale and enjoyed the roasted malt flavor. At the end of the day, this is a microbrewery in a small town. I rarely drink beer anymore but this one went down so nicely, which I think was because I knew I was supporting a small local business. Cheers to Big Meadow.
