As part of my hubby's birthday month, he has been wanting to go to different breweries here in Ventura. The latest brewery we tried was Seaward Brewing! It was pretty quiet for a Saturday afternoon; there were just a few people seating by the bar. We ordered our drinks at the bar, and I wanted to try a beer flight, but they don't have gluten-free beer here. I had a passion fruit, orange, and guava seltzer. It was actually really good! One really cool thing about this place is that they have free snacks available to eat while you have your drinks! I thought that was good, considering that most places don't offer anything free nowadays. We sat inside because we saw they had a cute seating area with a small table. They also had a t.v screen, and we were asked if we wanted to watch anything specific. We watched a bit of a Dodgers game, but we were mostly talking and enjoying our time together and enjoying our drinks. Overall we had a nice experience and would love to come back again. read more

Hi friends! If you are coming here for a stamp on your "passport" please go somewhere else. I guess they don't allow you to purchase a second flight if there is an event... but won't stamp your passport unless you purchase two flights. We came here specifically for a stamp on our passport unfortunately read more

Seaward is tucked away in some commercial warehouse area but is an absolute gem. The tap room is pretty neatly decorated with a clear view of the main operations in the back. There's a second adjacent room with more seating and some space for playing games. We arrived while some trivia was ongoing - nothing quite like classic bar trivia! Even with the trivia in swing our bartender was super helpful in explaining the different brews. I enjoyed the low tide and high tide IPAs - both swell *haha* takes on the hazy though the Tiki Drink came to win. It barely tasted like a traditional beer and instead tasted more like a mixed drink in all goods ways. Overall Seaward is hot spot to check out and worth the visit. read more

If you want the best of times, friendly environment, great frequent entertainment, and the best beer in town, look no further!!! Give Seaward a try, love this place. read more

Delicious beers for sure. This is a small time Brewery and it's rather small inside. Not much going on here, but it was a good time nonetheless. I appreciate the free snacks that they put out which was pub mix, cheeze it mix, and licorice. It would be great if you could get real food here. It seems from past pictures that they used to do that. Either way if you just want some good quality beers, you won't be disappointed. read more

Seaward Brewing - High Tide/ Double Hazy IPA - Breweries Near Me - Ventura, California

My partner thoroughly enjoys the beers at this location! He mentioned that he is not a fan of IPAs but this brewery does it right! Another patron said that their product is high quality! Great to hear these comments about the beer at this brewery! Unfortunately I'm not a beer drinker thus I just appreciate enjoying myself in the outside area among those who enjoy the quality beer! With comments by these individuals, if you fancy this type of beer, stop in for a pint of two and support a local brewery! And many thanks to the staff for bringing out a couple of refreshments for me to try as a non beer drinker! Much appreciated. They do have a seltzer drink! Seating includes inside tables and a patio area outside with picnic tables! Plenty of parking! Prost! read more

Monique and her team run a tight, professional operation -- it's been clear from day one that they know what they're doing. Two years in and it's only gotten better. Looking forward to continuing to work together. read more

Ran into this gem while visiting family and it was so cute! They were playing trivia when we showed up but the hostess was very kind and patient while we took our time to figure out what to drink. I ended up grabbing the Tiki Drink which was so yummy! It's orange smoothie, creamsicle and fruit punch. I've never had anything like this and I thoroughly enjoyed it! If I lived here, I'd come back multiple times! Stop by and grab a unique drink! read more

Excellent beers and really good service! Highly recommend it. We will definition be back next time we are in the area.

Some of the most unique beers I've ever seen. Really cool how this brewery seems to experiment with hops and flavors. I especially love the TIKI DRINK beer with pineapple and coconut cream. It's 7% and a total beach vibe. Can't get enough. The vibe here is super chill. Good service. Indoor seating and an outdoor patio. There was a taco truck while we were there, and trivia is on Tuesday nights. Definitely a great local spot. read more

Such a cute, quaint, little spot. I love that the customers there give off a family vibe. They even have for bike tournaments there!! We came in a Saturday night. It wasn't busy at all, and there was a food truck there that was selling yummy BBQ. I like that they serve beer flights. 4 tastings per board. It's Percy if you want to taste a little bit of some, before committing to a full glass! read more

Great community vibe and amazing beer. The brewmaster gave us a tour of the brew house! He clearly knows his craft.

This weekend was my first time visiting Seaward Brewing and had a great experience! The employees were friendly, COVID guidelines were being followed, and the beer was awesome! They have a great variety of beer to choose from. I enjoyed the morning jitters beer which is a coffee stout. The outdoor seating area is simple but they have a handful of tables and a tv outside. We look forward to visiting again soon! read more

Found deep in an industrial park. No food available when I was there. Would be great if they had a food truck. And the flavor of this place definitely did not fit into this building. Cornhole on the sidewalk felt crammed. It's a popular spot and would be great next to the sea. Inside are lots of TVs with sports on. Definitely a sport watching spot. Nicest people waited on us. The young man & woman behind the bar were helpful, friendly and fun. Nice crowd of folks that obviously love this place. I'd love to see it down on the harbor. Seems like a great spot to visit after a trip to the Channel Islands! read more

Relaxing time watching a little college football with my son! I started with Flight Of 4 + Sea Minus + Santiago + Morning Jitters + Night Moves The Sea Minus was a Pilsner the Santiago which was my choice favorite is a Amber Lager! Morning Jitters a caffeine induced stout similar to Guinness Night moves was a Imperial Pastry Stout Lactose, Caramel, Cacao Nibs, Vanilla, Skor Bars and Twix Bars. My son had Low Tide 6.3% Falconer's Flight, Mosaic, Simcoe Barley, Wheat and Flaked Oats and a Cali Calling DIPA Amarillo/Cascade/Mosaic Remember when tasting beers or drinking beers you must make a food purchase! Nice place good tasting beers worth the visit! read more

Off the beaten path, but within a few blocks of central Ventura. I randomly came across this place after having driven a little too far down Telephone Road. It was dusk on a Saturday and the commercial buildings were all closed up for the weekend - but I could sense a little action from the driveway this taproom is located on. There was ample parking, a barbecue food pop up making pizzas, and a great front patio area. The venue itself looked to have been a small warehouse at one time but was handsomely transformed into a comfortable and modern industrial space. There's a bar on one end, a clean bathroom, and a handful of tables. The first thing I noticed was the whimsical selection of brews displayed on the wall. I love it when you are given the tasting notes to look out for. I had a Windshift which was delightfully refreshing and citrusy. My friend (who is not a beer fan) ordered their Undertow Seltzer which tasted more like lemonade than a spirit. Both were very good. Seaward may be hidden, but it is certainly not a place to be missed. read more

After a long craving for a good beer decided to give another spot a try and stopped off at Seaward Brewing. Walked in and the outside patio was empty and the interior had only a couple people around 5pm. Definitely had a bit of an awkward vibe and didn't get a greeting when we entered. Finally got some pints ordered and some snacks and drinks from the case for the kids and decided to sit on the outside just because of the vibe. The seltzer was good and refreshing the ales were tasty. As we decided to move along the place started to get a bit busier and the patio was 75% full. The hope was to have a good drink and we definitely got that but the awkward unwelcoming vibe to start probably won't have us back. read more

It would be 5 stars if that stayed open an hour longer. I love the chill almost coffee shop atmosphere. I just wish they were open until 10pm on Wednesdays. read more

Excellent West Coast DIPA and Porter! Great service...we will be back for sure. A hidden gem. read more

Wow, delicious beer here! I was really surprised of how good the Citrus and the Blonde tasted. So fresh and served super cold, it was a perfect combination for a Friday night. The hosts were all super nice and let us sample a lot of their beers before we decided on the following delicious drinks: Double Hazy IPA Hoppy Blonde Citra Pale Ale The only turn off I guess is how full the place was on a Friday night and because you can't go outside with your drink you get stuck being cramped in the bar squished together, which is why we dropped a glass :/ Other than that this place was awesome, we were there for the beer and they did not fail to deliver. We will be visiting this place on a regular schedule from now on and hopefully some of the undesirables that were there last night will not be in attendance in the future! read more

Came here on a quiet Saturday afternoon and there were the 2 of us and 3 other beer-living couples. They are in a typical light industrial setting with plenty of weekend parking. Two big screen TVs and yay only 1 had sports. Female friendly with purse hooks at most tables and at the bar. Complimentary pretzel mix. You can buy snacks or order something from their neighbor kitchen The Cave. Some beers are better than others, but an overall very nice place that is worth checking out. read more

Disclaimer: Grip your Beer Glass tightly from the bottom. There are many places to choose when it comes to local breweries. But you put one right smack next door to my office and HOT DAMN if that's not recipe for making my new favorite beer spot. On to the important stuff. Yea it's a little small and crowded due to opening recently. But I have to say the beers are on point and tasty. I am one of those guys that likes a good IPA. Call me what you want, but the Hazy IPA and Hazy DIPA were right in my wheel house. My other co-workers sampled some of the other beers and all expressed their delight in a beer that was refreshing and tasty. So why the disclaimer to hold on to that glass you ask. Well, I dropped my tasty beer. Their pints have a slight flange in-ward that makes for an easy slip when you hold the top of the glass that has been kissed with the sweat of a brisk winter evening on an equally chilled beer. My Bad. Cheers Seward! read more

Nice beer!! Needs more arcade games!! Beer pour is good! Sitting area is nice and is a very spacious setting!

This is a wonderful brewery with an amazing ambiance. I really enjoy their Tiki Drink, and the workers were so kind and willing to help with any questions we had. I highly recommended this brewery if you are looking for a friendly group of employees and incredible drinks! Check it out! read more

Fantastic brew, great service, and a small town feel in a big city. This is definitely a must try if you haven't yet. The beer is cold and crafted to perfection! read more

The space is ok, not much to do besides sit and drink. Maybe some games or something to look at would help. The beer was good but they were stocked out of a few good ones I would have liked to try. Overall it's worth a try? The hazy on tap was pretty delicious as was the one stout. read more

Great beer and cool atmosphere! Came here on a Friday evening and it was packed! We were lucky to be able to find a spot. We had the double IPA, imperial milk stout and hoppy blonde. All were phenomenal! Service was also a two thumbs up. Will definitely be back! read more

We love a quaint little brewery. We do not love a large drunk crowd of St Patty's drunkards who are so far gone they don't realize they aren't the only patrons. While it was tough to get Our order and hard to hear each other for a spell, we did have a nice time. We will be back on a another day. Our beers were tasty read more
