    "Bierstachein" in action

    My husband and I found Postdoc brewing in Redmond during the pandemic - we loved the name, the beers, the people and the ambience. We were overjoyed when they opened a site in Kenmore which is much closer to our house. Equally awesome staff, draft beer list and ambience. Such a happy place...we love coming here! We stopped by today and were happily surprised to find out that they're doing special "Bierstachein". Never heard of the idea but it's so cool and fun. And for all the works, they only charge $3 per glass. What a deal! They're also celebrating their anniversaries and we got free glasses - so great that they appreciate their customers. This is a place that puts the biggest smiles on our faces.

    I came by to grab a drink with a coworker who recommended this place. They have a large space that includes both indoor and outdoor seating. There are picnic tables and couch seats inside that face the TVs so people can watch sports games. Outside there are patio tables covered by tarps. There are very few parking spots right out front but there is street parking a block away where you can park and walk over. All their beers are brewed in-house and their ciders come from Soundbite Cider in Everett. I ordered the thor's hammer ($6.50) which was very creamy and chocolate-y. If you want you can also order flights that consist of four 4oz pours of $2-3 each. They don't have free samplers but instead it's a $1 donation to a charity. When I came here a lot of people were on their laptops because there is free wifi so it's a good place to get some work done too. They have food trucks parked on-site so you don't need to go too far for food. This is a nice place to relax and grab some drinks.

    R.I.P. Cairn One of our favorite gathering places with some of the most delicious beer. I always looked forward to sampling the latest version of Hoptraverse, my wife loved Sippy Cup, and the Golden Anbessa is one of the best beers I've ever had. The people were always so kind and helpful, and being located right on the Burke-Gilman made for a lively environment. Thanks for the memories, Cairn. - J & K

    Great place for a summer beer! They have a big outdoor area that is mostly shaded in the afternoon with lots of seating and it's not over crowded with chairs. The servers were all really friendly when they were pouring the beer or walking around clearing glasses. Definitely a really friendly place to hangout and have a beer. Tuesday at 7pm is their trivia night. If you have a big group, you should come an hour early to reserve your seats but if you have a smaller group, 30 minutes early should be fine.

    My first time here, taking part in the Eastside Beer Week bike tour. Although I've learned the hard way that hydrating with beer when cycling doesn't work out well for me, I still had to try two 5 oz pours and was so happy that I did. The hazy pale ale and the oatmeal stout made for such a counterpoint of flavors, aromas and textures - it was really quite an experience. I will definitely stop by again!

    Oh my, I like it here! The vibe is so fun and the people that work here so nice! They offer amazing beer and if you have friends with you that prefer wine or cider, they have that too! There is a large indoor area and a nice outdoor area so you can pick your place to gather with friends. I will be back soon. I had a great time.

    Great service and very friendly people. They do have chips and nuts to buy on site. There's a good amount of beer to choose from. I chose the blood orange cider, which was very good. Ambience is very dark wood colored and homey. Would definitely be back and there's parking!

    Some comfortable options and a family restroom.

    I've been here a few times since this opened. I like the close proximity to both biking on the Burke-Gilman and water activities at Squire's landing park. We like to reward physical exertion with beer afterwards. This brewery is conveniently located next to two others which adds to the greatness of the spot. Parking can be a bit tough on a busy day due to this. The brewery itself is large with lots of places to sit, including an outdoor patio area and a few coach areas. Snacks are available for sale regularly and local delivery options are posted on the wall. If you are lucky you will come on a food truck night and get to try something nice. I have been trying to come on an Alaskan Dumpling night for weeks now. Like most breweries these days this one allows dogs and children. There is a family bathroom which has a smaller sink for children to wash up in. On a recent visit many children did not seem to be very well supervised and in fact I was concerned they may knock over my beer and this would have upset me. I did appreciate that the bathroom recommended the use of the blowers vs the paper towels. It can be quite loud in here.

They have a nice little patio area where you can enjoy your beverage and you are allowed to bring food from neighboring restaurants! We enjoyed a couple of rose pours here before I spotted the guava hibiscus sour from Payette brewing in Boise! So much flavor and the right amount of sour. Just how I like it! Right now they are practicing social distancing and allowing only one person in the lobby at a time with a second register at the back for ordering once you've been seated out back. There are so many good options available in this tiny footprint of space right off the main drag in Bothell. I look forward to future visits to this neat spot!

I got a small glass of some rando cider, but I think that I got charged a higher peace than what was listed on the chalkboard menu that hangs up above the cashier table. Staff was welcoming, but idk...was not feeing comfortable here. Very tight, too. Only like three stools to sit at if you decide to stay at this bar. Very cold here, too. At least the bathroom was spacious...arguably more than it had to be because would be nice to have more floor area at the front so more customers could be seated. Not much else to say except that the bonsai bar workshop was a cute experience, but also very hard to hear them because the portable heaters would be running, but gave out no heat after 30 minutes. Soooo, what was the point? Hm...

    I've reviewed a lot of breweries, and Fremont Brewing did not disappoint!…read more This cool spot has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. A truly legit outdoor space! They are kid and dog-friendly, too. We ordered an NA IPA (which they have on tap!) and their hop water (comes in a can). Both beverages were absolutely delicious. I love that this place is NA-friendly. They offer some light snacks and free pretzels, which is awesome for a brewery without a kitchen. There is a food truck on site, but it was closed when we visited. No worries, though, you can bring outside food, which is perfect since there are plenty of great restaurants in the area. I asked the bartender if they brew at this location, and he said they've moved all brewing to a different location in Seattle, but it's still super fresh and tasty beer all around. This is a spot worth visiting in Seattle or getting together with a large group for a few drinks. Plenty of choices for everyone!

Smattering variety of beer (1-2 offerings per "kind" of beer, non-alc included), so I'd say this place is more for vibes and location, rather beer-focused. That being said, the vibes were good! Random barrels and umbrellas, as well as maybe 10 or so picnic tables across the two outdoor patios (dog-friendly). Saw they also have private event space off to the side. Plenty of indoor seating as well.
