Went in for a quick lunch and beer before heading home.. unfortunately as soon as I sat down the altitude sickness hit me and I couldn't touch anything I had ordered/: Our server was SO nice and understanding, boxed it up for me immediately and even let me take my drink to go which was so nice because I was really bummed about having to waste it. My dad & brother shared the Zowie Wowie pizza, and while that's not necessarily my style, they LOVED IT. My dad also got the Jalapeño Ale and said it was delicious. We will definitely be back for our next trip, great food and even better service!! read more

This place was awesome, great service, great beer selection, and the Rueben was delicious. Add this place to your pit stop in Weed. Will be back on the next road trip! read more

Mount Shasta Brewing - Brewpubs Near Me - Weed, California

Went here for dinner last week. Food was so good and service was fantastic. It was basically a one woman show but she was still able to be attentive and made sure we were taken care of. Will definitely be going back. read more

Cool atmosphere, beer was good, pizzas are great for a pub. My wife got a panini that was good as well. Our server was awesome. He told us some cool stories about how some of their beers got their names, and even hooked us up with a couple of stickers to go along with the growler and silipint that I got. Try the jalapeño ale, it's worth a pint. read more

Great brewery and great beer! Staff is excellent! They have live music from time to time and an awesome venue. Will be a dedicated customer for many years to come. Keep up the good work guys! read more

I have been coming in here for at least 5 years, esp. when I lived in nearby Lake Shastina. I really like how the place has evolved, and how you've opened up the space with the pool table and seating. What I have a problem with concerning your service style, is making your customers feel unwelcome, as I felt the other night in your establishment, when a buddy and I came in for a couple of beers after disc golfing at COS. Here's a tip for your staff: wait to do your closing side work until you have no more customers to wait on. I had a surreal experience when asking the bearded guy behind the bar "So, how's the porter?" - twice - and having him give me a blank look both times, and no response. That's why I asked the blond lady washing glasses who had already been serving us if she would mind pouring me a taster of the porter. So, what does bearded guy do? He says, "She's busy washing glasses" (uh, duh, got that) and then acted like it was pulling his teeth to pour me a sample. Wrong service attitude, folks! You always, always make the customer feel welcome. I would have preferred you say "Bar's closed" and kick us out so we could move on to somewhere we were welcome, as opposed to staying open and making us feel like assh***s for having the audacity to visit your establishment (late, towards closing time on a Tuesday, yes, but that's no excuse). 3 stars for the beers and the recently-upgraded space. 1 star for the service. read more

The beer is great. The menu could be bigger-the selections are limited to sausages and cheese platters. (I would have liked a big, juicy burger to go with my delicious beer.) The brat was excellent, and they weren't stingy with the toppings-it was a little bit overpriced, but still very worth the trip to Weed to visit this little Northern California gem. I will be visiting again! read more

Mount Shasta Brewing - Mt. Shasta Brewpub - Brewpubs Near Me - Weed, California

We stopped by here for a late lunch as we were not able to stay as Harvest Hosts. Their Porter and Lemurian beer was very good and their Reuben sandwich was satisfying. Highly recommend while traveling I-5. Will definitely come back again. read more

Monday lunch crowd was small. Service was friendly and quick. Food was tasty. Salads very fresh. Seasonal belgian streke mild with a sweet after taste which i liked because i do not care for a bitter hoppy flavor. Hubby had a golden ale which he really enjoyed read more

Food and beer were good. Our service was great. Very cool atmosphere and decor! The swag is pretty cool as well!

Good food, good beer, good service. Definitely worth a visit. Nice outdoor seating too

Stopped in Weed to spend the night on a long trip south. Decided to try Mount Shasta Brewing and were pleasantly surprised. The acoustics were fantastic, you can actually have a conversation even when the place is full (it was). The food was fantastic (grown-up grilled cheese and vegefarian flat bread pizza (yes, vegefarian)). We had an amber ale and a cider, superb. We'll be stopping here again on our way to/from Oregon. read more

The bartender was great, super nice and helpful. The pizza "flat bread" was so so, seemed to be frozen. The beer was good, not great.

I loved the vibe of this place, classic lodge with a pint in hand. The inside is made out of wood with old beer bottles and cans aligning the wall. You feel like you are inside a cabin escaping the cold and then you realize you are in the middle of the mountains literally escaping the snow. The beers were average at best. I wasn't a fan of them all, but their Mountain IPA was good and their Shastafarian Porter was great. Left with a 6 pack for $10. The water couldn't be fresher from Mt. Shasta. Each beer comes with their controversial "try legal weed" bottle caps. Almost went to the supreme courts. I will stop by anytime I drive by on I-5. There was just a charm about it. Good staff and good people at the bar. read more

This place has fine beer and alright food, but the disdain for out of towners is palatable. Maybe if we had gone on another day with a differ group of bartenders / servers, it would have been a better experience. I came with a group of four and a baby, and we were hoping to get a pitcher and order some food and enjoy it at one of the many outside tables. I sat at the bar for far too long waiting to be served; the bartender passed me up many, many times to serve locals who came to the bar while I was sitting with card in hand trying to make eye contact. I have a lot of patience for bartenders, they are some of the busiest people and have to deal with the most crap, but this was an obvious snub. When the woman finally decided to grace me with her attention, she took our order and assured me that we would be fine sitting outside and they would bring the food to us. I bring the beer outside and sit down. Within moments, a women approaches with chips and salsa. We inform her that we had ordered nachos, not chips and salsa, and she looks confused and leaves. After a little while, I get curious and go approach the bar. When I (finally! again!) get someones attention to ask about the nachos, I'm informed that they aren't serving nachos that day. I was a bit surprised that this was the first I heard about it, as the other bartender had taken my nachos order without blinking an eye (and then apparently sent chips and salsa as a replacement with no explanation to us or the other server.) A while later, my boyfriend went in to order another beer. He comes back and reports that there is a bunch of food sitting randomly on a counter that looks a lot like ours; maybe they were staging it before bringing it back out? I go in after this and see that indeed, there is all of our food sitting randomly on a merch case. I ask the bartender and she says "oh yes, that's yours, you can go ahead and take it." At this point, I can only assume it was sitting there for almost ten minutes. When it came time to pay the bill, none of our group even wanted to go back inside to deal with the bartenders. It was that bad. My boyfriend, being the most patient of us all, took one for the team. There aren't a lot of options in Weed, and even so, I will never be back. read more

Mt. Shaster Brewing Company is a bit of a mixed bag. We went there in the afternoon, and tried to get what looked like the main bar area, which was closed. We then went around the side of the building, to what looked like a garage, which I guess you could call their tasting room, which was open. We were the only people in there for about 95% of our time there, and sat right up at the bar. We got the beer sampler, which was somewhat average for craft beer, although the porter was good. We talked to the bartender for a while, and she was very nice and held conversation with us for the better part of an hour. The decor was maybe the most interesting thing about the place, as it was just a random assortment of things hanging from everywhere. Bikes from the ceiling, random animal heads, and mosaic glass art made for a very interesting room. The sampler was a bit on the expensive side, and it seemed like they were getting ready to close up at 4PM, but again, it was kind of hard to tell what was going on. I wonder if all of the 5 star reviews are just because people in the area or passing through have never had craft beer before? This could be a fun place, but they seem to be doing better selling bottles anyway. read more

I hate docking stars for service, but the service here was terrible. If you're a traveler passing through Weed and trying to get a quick lunch, I'd advise against stopping here. It looked like the waitress was the only one responsible for manning the bar and waiting tables, but she seemed to genuinely not care about doing either well. Once we were seated, I gave up on her coming to the table after about 20 minutes (despite it clearly being a table service joint) and went to the bar to place an order and request our check. She was friendly, just didn't seem to know what she was doing. My boyfriend and I split a Greek salad and meat lovers' pizza, both of which were daily specials and were fine (the pizza was pretty solid), but definitely not worth waiting almost an hour for. If you go, sit at the bar! read more

My husband loved this place last year so we came again last weekend. We ordered the mini pizza which was so good we ordered a second one to take back to our rv for later. The lady that helped us had a hard time of hearing so make sure you speak loud enough or you will get the order wrong. She was really nice and we loved all the vintage stuff all over the place. They had an old antique car hanging from the ceiling. The beer was really good my husband loved it. He tried a dark one this time and it was so strong he only needed two! Best mini pizzas in town!!!!! We got full off one we shared and they also had really good salad. read more

Overall, seems like a place for family and friends only. If you're headed up I five I would wait and stop at the Etna brewing Company in Yreka. I concur with the reviews regarding poor service. It was our fist time and I was excited to try it. We came on Thursday evening for the "bluegrass" music. I am not a bluegrass connoisseur but I know what bluegrass sounds like and that was not it. It wasn't too loud though, so that was nice. But definitely not bluegrass as advertised. Music aside, we arrived at 7pm and the place was not even half full. We were seated and received a menu from the waitress and then we didn't see her again for another 30 minutes until we waved down the bartender and asked if we were supposed to place an order at the bar? They joked to ring the bell for service, which is apparently the bell that you ring when you want to buy the full house a round of drinks! After about 30 minutes, the waitress came over and apologized to us. I told her it was our first time and we really didn't know if we were supposed to place the order at the bar or stay seated. We placed the order for beer and pizza. The pizza came out pretty quickly. The flatbread seemed to be prebaked and the pizza gradients were thrown on top and put under a broiler. The server came out with the pizza without silverware and we had to ask for from the bar. We didn't see the waiter again, not even to ask for a glass refill or anything, until we waved her down for our check. The waitress seemed very interested in a group of her friends/family that was there, but we barely interacted with the waitress. Sorry, guys! But Yall need to step up your service game. read more

This is a hidden Northern California gem. The pub house is like a little museum, with all kinds of interesting relics to look at, bordered by their brewing vats on either side. Try the brew sampler platter... I don't remember the clever name they gave it, but you can really get a feel for their product. They have a jalapeno beer, which is rather intense, but a novelty none the less. read more

This place is horrible! Not worth the stop at all. Go to the Goat tavern in Mount Shasta instead. The food is terrible. Its pretty much all microwaved. Even the brats are microwaved in their own beer. and overpriced is an understatement. two nuked tacos for 9 bux? a glorified hotdog for 9 bux? are you kidding me. Even the bartenders will tell you not to eat it. Its seriously gross. There was mold in the mustard and ketchup containers on the tables. They dont put them away in the fridge. EVER! The beer is different every brew. Theres no consistency to it at all. Ive had a few good ones, but overall, not that good. And the price is robbery. You can buy their beer in other local pubs FOR CHEAPER! and at $10.00 pus for a six-pack... NO FREAKIN WAY! I live here in Weed, and nobody buys this stuff around here. Its way too expensive. It's no way to treat the locals. The bartenders and workers are pretty cool for the most part. Although they dont seem happy to work there, I can only imagine why. And sometimes theres a nice local or two to talk too. But the management of this joint is just terrible. Its a place with so much potential, being completely wasted. Just look at the food! Could be real good. But the owners refuse to do anything about it, just like the rest of its problems. I wont go in the door ever again. I recommend you do the same. Skip it and wait till Ashland (going North) or Dunsmuir (going South) where you can get REAL good beer and food, from REAL good people. Or like I said, stop in The Goat, in Mount Shasta, not a brewery, but more beers on tap, and real good food, atmosphere etc. You'll be happier you did. read more

Super quirky little spot, you need to get off the road and check it out if you have time! Just be careful with the beer flight, it is an 8-beer, $20 commitment. Only critique: no idea why the bartender was so unfriendly. I spent a quick hundred bucks at lunch time between my food and beers and shirt purchases, she treated me like some kind of scumbag. Maybe because I made a joke about her old 50s rock and roll being that new hit song? Oh well, Weed does make some people cranky. :) read more

This place is a nice little stop along I-5 in a town called Weed. Great views of Mt. Shasta sit in the backdrop of this cozy little town. The tasting room resembles a lodge and is well suited for its surrounding town. The ambiance is very relaxed and casual. Time almost stands still here... Could it be because of the weed? Hmmm.... Whether it's pure marketing genius or an overplayed nod to the town name, this brewery is serious about Weed! So much so I wonder if the hops in the beers were swapped out for the other hop effect. Weed Golden Ale - (4/10): Yes, Weed again... This is a light, golden ale that is very refreshing. I almost liken it to drinking super clean water as if this beer is actual run off from the local mountain snow pack. As clean as it tastes, it just doesn't pack flavor and I am a big fan of flavor. Mountain High IPA - (6/10): This is a decent American IPA. With 7%abv and 63 IBU's it packs a wallop of hop bitterness. Lemurian Lager - (3/10): This is an okay pilsner. It is light with sweetness from the yeast or malts. I wasn't a big fan. Overall, I nice little stop along the long drive from Portland to Sacramento. However, I wouldn't call it a destination spot for micro lovers. read more

Great place to hang out and enjoy the beers. Not a fine dining choice, they don't have an actual kitchen but some of their menu items are really great: the pizza, the brewers board, panini, and artichoke cheese bread. The beers are the main event though. Get a few extras to take home. read more

Mount Shasta Brewing - Iconic bar. - Brewpubs Near Me - Weed, California

Asked for no tomatoes on my sandwich - came with tomatoes. Added chicken to the salad - no chicken came with the salad. Asked for the bill as soon as we got our food - didn't receive the bill until 10 minutes after we were done eating and after asking 2 additional times. Place wasn't very clean. Rotten avocados on the floor on the way to the restroom. In other news the Pubhouse Panini was pretty good. Golden Ale was average at best. read more

The Mount Shasta Brewing Company is a great place to sit down for a (cheap!) tasting flight and some simple bar food. I found the folks here very friendly, and while I'm not a fan of every brew they put out, some of them are really pretty tasty. Saw a family come in with kids and sit at one of the tables for dinner, which I think is nice (no, the kids weren't drinking). The seasonal and special brews here are, in my opinion, the most interesting stuff; but if you're just passing through, I recommend the IPA as their best regular brew. You can buy a flight to make your own decision, of course. Food service is slow, and the food itself isn't really impressive, but there's nothing really wrong with it. This is a place to go for beer first and foremost; otherwise, hope you like waiting fifteen or twenty minutes for a chili dog and some tortilla chips. Could have just been a slow day, I guess? I would be in here more often if I didn't have to drive to reach the place; I don't really see much of a reason to come here if you're not planning on drinking some beer. read more

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Very yummy and great service! Wouldn't ask for anything better from a small town, wonderful brewery! Beers are great, food just as wonderful! read more

Mt Shasta Brewery was the last leg of our NorCal beer tour. This place has got some real character & we fit right in. If you're looking for a snooty yuppie style you'll hate it. There is a casual, funky & friendly vibe. I had a panini served on a bamboo board with Golden Ale, my daughter had the panini with jalapeño beer. Service was excellent. Can't wait to go back on a night where there's a live band. read more

Mt. Shasta Brewing Co is one of the various lunch stops on my bi-annual, 10 hour drive from Portland to Sacramento. The beer is excellent. I liked the Porter a lot. If you're feeling wild, try the jalapeno beer. It's amazing. No human can have a full pint of it, but get it if you order a sampler. The food is a step above bar food. We had paninis for around $10 each, which we all thought was a bit overpriced. The staff are super chill. They happened to be bottling a fresh batch of IPA and gave us each a bottle as a parting gift. It's apparent that Mt. Shasta Brewing has a strong presence in the Weed community. They host a lot of events and shows for local bands. Possibly the coolest place in a 200 mile radius. Worth stopping for a beer if you happen to be near the CA/OR border. read more

Not a local and contrary to previous reviews we received great service! We tried all the beers on tap and enjoyed brats, cheese bread, and the pretzel. All were fantastic! I would highly recommend the Jalapeño Weed Ale! It was a perfect blend of beer and jalapeños. read more

Chips and salsa was ok. WTF puts corn in salsa? Had the turkey, avacodo Sammy. Was ok. Feel like you need to be some kind of vegan gluten free hippie to fully enjoy this place. The lagger beer was good and the staff was fast and friendly. Not my cup of tea but others may enjoy. read more

After disc golfing at College of the Siskiyous around the corner from this brewery I stopped here to sample the beers. I was surprised to find a flight of four approx. 3 oz samples was $10. While quite expensive for 12 ounces, essentially a can, I can look beyond this for a small local brewery. What was more disappointing was the fact that all four samples were barely below room temp. There is really no excuse to serve warm beer. Due to the expense of the flight, the serving temp and overall average quality of the beer, I would not recommend going out of the way to visit this place. read more

Delicious beer, pizza the best and fabulous chicken salad.... Ooh did I mention how delicious the beers are....come by and check it out

I loved this little place! The grilled cheese was amazing! The bartenders were fun and very nice!

Heading north and wanting to stop for a beer and some food? Keep driving, Ashland is only another 50 miles or so. The bartender gal looked at me like I was an alien when I walked to the bar to try to order a beer and some food. When I asked for a menu she rolled her eyes and glanced at one of the menus on one of the tables i'd walked by. When I went back to the bar to pay, I noticed she'd kindly ID'd me as "one bald dude" on my check (in their system) LMAO. I will echo others reviews - if you're not "down", i.e. a "cool local", they appear not to care whether you want to drink their beer or not. read more

3.5 stars. We were driving down from Vancouver, BC, got hungry after playing in the snow at Mt. Shasta National Forest, and ended up at this place in Weed, CA. The server greeted us nicely and we had a seat at our table. The atmosphere was very country, like we were in a big old wooden barn and sitting on rickety old furniture. I ordered a pizza, and an appetizer dish which came with different sausages, cured meats, cheese, veggies and garlic naan. The pizza had pepperoni, bacon, sausage, and lots of cheese. The crust was done nicely - crispy and not too dry. The garlic naan was decent, but was a little hard and there wasn't much garlic flavor in it. So, it was a comforting meal after playing in the snow, and also a decent meal that we just stumbled upon during our road trip. read more
