    Absolutely love this place. I always stop in here when visiting the in law in Boise. The outdoor seating is dog friendly Nd plenty of space between tables. The beer is fantastic. I always buy a bunch of 4 seasons seasonal when I'm here. Staff is super nice every time I go.

    I visit the Nampa brewery every week. I had time to kill so stopped into the Boise tasting room. I got a free beer for Veterans day. Great atmosphere and beer I met Anna, the new manager. Very kind gal, thanked me for my time in the service.

    Great Boise brewery! I highly recommend the Nitro Cali Cream Ale and Nitro Milk Stout .... AND their black and tan combo of both. Soooo good. This California visitor approves! Just wish they would open a tap room in Ventura County! (hint hint)

    In town for a couple days and we needed a drink (or two). Found Mother Earth and gave it a try. What a nice place. Simple, yet comfortable. Plenty of locally produced draft craft beer. Nice beertenders and tasty beer. We came back the next day for a second round.

    MEBC brews some of my favorite beers and yet I've never been here before so it's nice that this is brewery visit #270. MEBC has a very well done spot in downtown with a huge patio area. Super welcoming and well done. They have a lot of their beers on tap which I haven't tried before. They just don't market a lot of them as heavily in the stores as the mainstays like CaliCreamin. CaliCreamin and Tierra Madre have long been a staple of mine when hanging out at the pool or the Colorado River. And of course Milk Truck is a great stout. I felt the need to go with beers previously unknown to me though. My flight started with Urban Solace IPA. A really good IPA with smooth flavors. It had a depth to it that is very reminiscent of a milkshake IPA. CaliTruck is a mix of CaliCreamin and Milk Truck. I was thinking more of a black and tan but at least in the taster it was more of just a blend. No complaints as I actually really enjoyed it. Quit Stalin bourbon barrel aged Russian imperial stout was really good. Are we allowed to praise ANYTHING with "Russian" in the name now or does that make me a Putin apologist? I'm not sure of the rules now but honestly I don't care. A Russian imperial stout is good regardless of some sh*€y dictator and ignorant people. But I digress... SWPFTD actually liked this one and she is generally not a big fan of bourbon barrel aged stouts. Last, well maybe not, is the triple berry bourbon barrel aged imperial stout. I'm not sure what Barrie's constitute the "triple berry" in this. Raspberry always seems like a staple and being Idaho you always think huckleberries. Honestly I couldn't identify the three but the flavors all worked really well. I did a little taster of the Peaches & Cream and decided to go with a pint of that. It's definitely a little sweet but not overpoweringly so. Sweet but with really good peach aroma and flavor. There is no food at MEBC exactly but they did have a food truck outside, which was Big Meats BBQ. We may stop in again tomorrow so hopefully they will be open then. I am a big fan of MEBC's brews and will definitely stop back in. They have solid beers and the vibe is excellent. If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand. Yes, you will need to read into it a little to get the joke but I have confidence in you! I hope my confidence is not misplaced.

    Inside was very nice and also very clean

    What a great location in downtown Boise! I was in town on vacation and was pleasantly surprised to see there is a Mother Earth here... I used to love to visit the Vista, CA location when it was open, but it closed right as I was in the process of moving out of state. This particular brewery has such a great vibe to it. The outside patio was lovely as was the inside. There's an amazing variety of beers on tap, I especially loved the Cali creamin on nitro and was happy to see it here. Our bar tender was friendly and helped pick out some great merchandise, all around a great experience, definitely worth a visit!

    I'll admit it. Mother Earth is one of my favorite brewers out there. I've been eagerly awaiting the opening of the Boise tap house. After months of drinking cans of Hop Diggity instead of getting it fresh from the tap, the holiday season has provided the gift of Mother Earth in Boise live, on tap. Judging from the crowds opening weekend, my husband and I haven't been the only folks waiting for the grand unveiling. We grabbed their seasonal Hazy IPA offering, Conditioned Reflex, and hustled back outside. Cold outside for sure, but hordes of unmasked strangers aren't our thing in pandemic times. If you're rocking a booster and feeling feisty, the seating inside is basic, open, and typical for what you might find in a tap house. Nothing too comfy but built for business. Drinking business. Staff was friendly and attentive despite the chaos of opening weekend. There's a gas fire pit and heaters to keep you warm while your beer stays cold outside. I assume tables will grace the patio when the weather warms. Six pack prices are comparable to what you find at the grocery store. There was a food truck on site. Our beer was perfectly poured and happily consumed. If you like any of Mother Earth's offerings, this tap house needs to go on your list of places to visit.

    How did I not know this was right by my hotel?!?

    Cali Creamin' on nitro!!! My fav! I've stayed down the road three times and had no clue this brewery was so close to my hotel. So excited to find it! Big open area with seating, it was snowing a lot, but could tell there was some awesome outside space when it's warmer. Bartender was very sweet and welcoming. Kids and dogs are welcome! Can't wait to visit next time I'm in town!

    Tried out the new tap house. There appears to be decent space for outdoor seating when the weather is better. Came in on a Saturday night around 7:30 and it was pretty packed. Line for beers moved quickly though. There was live music which I thought was great! Everyone seemed to enjoy their beers. We just stayed for one round as it's hard to get seating and hear anyone in your party talk because it's so loud/echo through the building.

    Notice the peak volume on the lower right

    Amazing beer! Beautiful open space! 5:45pm a band started and you could no longer talk to your friends and had to worry about the babies in the bar as the music topped a hundred decibels. Tragically we left their delicious beer to avoid hearing damage. Will re-rank if acknowledged.

    Awesome team

I was able to try their flagship West Coast IPA, Nitro Irish Stout, Bikini Sour, Hazy IPA, Bock and their wolf moon. My night cap was their Crispy Bois Pilsner. I did try the Fresh Pacific Pale (but ended up not liking it, plus they were trying a fresh hop juice). Great beer for the most part. The staff was very easy to talk to and definitely see being friends in my life besides Yelp. I would highly recommend going their to check it out. But if you want to see Ben I highly going in on a Monday since those are the days that he works. Since he is a part timer, because he is also a farmer. Solid people all around.

Almost made me want to move here, they were easy to talk to and were completely personal with their conversations. I ordered the flight of 4, 5-oz samples with an additional 2 more.

What I ordered was their Recoil IPA (citrus), Rustler IPA (malty), Mutton Buster (brown ale), Oktoberfest (marzen lager), with the additional two of the Aura (hibiscus sour), and Sofa King Dreamy (tropical IPA). This place was absolutely amazing, from the outside drinking areas to the bathrooms. The bathroom was something I wasn't suspecting, all the way to the bonfire pit that was so huge, to even the forest of the wandering drinkers. I did come pretty close to close and the staff was still awesome and easy to work with. They weren't done with their shift and irrtitated which I see most of the time. I ended up buying some merchandise and some beer togo. If I lived here, I can totally see myself coming by this spot frequently.

They have a cute tent set up like a forest/campground with picnic tables and other seating for guests to enjoy. This is a great space out of the elements (although we've had an extremely mild winter this year). I ordered the Le'Bois cocktail then a beer. Both were delicious. The bartenders were polite and service was very quick. The fire pit outside puts off a lot of heat and was perfect for the brisk evening last night. I have also been here in the summer time with my family and the outdoor courtyard is a good space for the kids to run around and we usually order them dinner for the rotating food trucks they have available. Also note, they are dog friendly. There were lots of sweet pups there last night. Just remember to bring a poop bag just in case.

Now, the food. My friend went for one of their signature burgers, which was seasoned simply so the beef really gets to shine. The only hiccup was that they were out of tomatoes, which is a non-negotiable topping for her, so keep that in mind if tomatoes are a must. I went a different route and ordered the beef focaccia. Uniquely layered ribeye and really good. We also shared a Greek salad that was simple but fresh and satisfying. And the french fries with their homemade ketchup? Don't skip em. Service was smooth and friendly from start to finish. No complaints.

    I don't know that I have ever given a brewery a 5 Star review...this makes sense!…read more I have been doing my little Fish & Chips search through Boise and I will have to say, this place is Hands Down the best yet that I have found! Now I have been here a few times and I like the place. The service is good, especially in the bar. The place is very open and has great light and fresh air which I always love. Add to that some great food and creative cocktails and you have a winner! They have a great Old Fashion that is a creation of one of the bartenders and I think is just a fantastic drink! Balanced flavor, a little sweet but not too sweet...with a nice bourbon finish to it! Now back to the Fish & Chips...I have had them twice now, with the same cocktail to chase them down. These are what Fish & Chips are meant to be. The batter is light with a great crunch, not heavily breaded but a light flavorful batter! Fries are good, home-made tartar sauce which always hits...and all the items you want with them...lemon, vinegar and for me mustard! I will be back, over and over again. for a drink, some good service and the best Fish & Chips when I am having that craving! KT

    I visited 10 Barrel Brewing recently with my fiancé, and while there were some high points…read moreregarding the flavors and service, the experience was a bit of a mixed bag. To start, I tried the Pickletini. As a fan of pickle-forward drinks, I found it "not bad"--a solid choice if you enjoy that briny profile. My fiancé opted for the All Ways Down Double IPA flight. At 9% ABV, it was a heavy hitter, but he really enjoyed the intense hop aroma and flavor provided by the Cryo Hops. For my main, I ordered the TNT Sando (Tri-Tip with bacon jam and garlic aioli) on Gaston's grilled focaccia. I requested it without pickles, and it was excellent. I paired it with the Black Bean and Veggie soup, which was a standout--perfectly delicious with a nice "zing" to it. Unfortunately, the meal hit a significant snag with my fiancé's Fish & Chips. The beer and cornmeal tempura batter was extremely thick (nearly 3/4 of an inch in some spots) and the fish was overcooked. Additionally, the blue cheese dressing on his side salad was very runny and tasted off. It was disappointing enough that we had to send it back. We replaced it with The Spicy Italian pizza. This was a total 180--it arrived looking beautiful, and the combination of the meats, pepperoncinis, and hot honey was absolutely delicious. Our server, Casey P., was generally good and attentive, though we did have to wait to start our meal because we weren't initially provided with napkins or silverware. A minor note on the atmosphere: the table we were seated at had "gay" carved into the wood, which felt a bit out of place for the professional vibe of the rest of the establishment. Overall, the TNT Sando, the pizza, and the beers are worth coming back for, but the kitchen consistency on the fried items definitely needs some work.
