    A small, but varied selection of beers
    John K.

    Vulpine is a terrific addition to a shopping center that has a lot to offer. Cozy and welcoming, we found enjoyable food and drinks, particularly impressive since the kitchen seems to only contain a panini press and a microwave. The Pumpkin Goat Dip was chevre based, and served warm. Sandwiches came out of the press with a perfect amount of crispness and warmth. The beer selection wasn't huge, but there was something for everyone. The local resident who introduced us to Vulpine said they may be expanding into the space next door, which should be a good thing, since there weren't a huge number of tables to accomodate the crowd that has discovered this place.

    Pretzel & beer cheese

    Comfortable brewery with a connected coffee shop. Have been a couple of times & it's an easy place to drop in for a beer with both indoor & outdoor covered seating. Different beers, sakes, & other fun drink options. Paninis were good, but the pretzel + beer cheese was my favorite! Most recently came for trivia on a Tuesday & it was a full house. Seems to be a very inclusive environment.

    Our first time visiting Vulpine Taproom. Great local hangout in the Lake Forest Park shopping area. While there we learned they are planning to expand to the recently vacated spot next door. Good vibes inside with a super helpful and friendly staff. I had a nice craft beer, my daughter had an Elder Tail drink and my wife had a Liquid Death Hop Water. Each of us enjoyed our bevies. We sat outside in the outdoor patio to enjoy the warm Summer weather and struck up a convo with a local lady who frequents the place. Vulpine Taproom features a variety of rotating taps with great descriptions on the chalk boards behind the bar for easy ordering and have a good selection of canned non alcoholic drinks as well. They even have a liquor slushie machine that seems to be all the rage these days. I can't wait to return to see the expanded area!

    Structure Stargate Hazy IPA, a cider with the best most satisfying cheese plate‼

    The best way to enjoy Labor Day weekend? A couple pints of beers and ciders at Vulpine‼

    Nice vibe. Cool artwork everywhere. Long skinny inside area with 5 2 seater tables, 4 bar seats, & 6 bigger tables. Outside there are 6-8 tables too. All Rotating taps of tasty beers. I haven't had the food but it was fun watching them make orders behind the bar. I think we'll make Wednesday trivia a regular thing; the host is pretty funny.

    Taproom on trivia night

    This is now my favorite place in the world. A real locals hangout without bad vibes or judgement or exclusivity. Everyone is welcome and the place is alive and vibrant. Josh opened this place last year and has created a cool fun space for the 21+ crowd to hang, enjoy drinks, food, games, and community. He is often seen in the floor helping pour drinks, handle the register, administer trivia, and participate in the fun runs! Where else do you see an owner being on the ground like this!?!? And totally enjoying it too??? Amazing. The place is absolutely on point with the fox theme. There is fox art everywhere, intermixed with PNW outdoor elements and decor. Local art is for sale and the member mugs are handmade by a local artist too! The beers and wines sold here rotate but are generally all local. They even serve ciders and make their own 3 cocktails, which they call "fox tails". Ahhh so cute. They host trivia on Wednesdays, vinyl night on Thursdays, run club on Friday, and art hangouts on Sunday. They have a board game library. They serve solid looking sandwiches, cheese boards, and soups. It's everything I wish for and I plan to make this my 2nd home. Really highly recommend you visit this place. It's amazing and you'll feel like a regular the first moment you walk in.

We live 3 blocks away. So you'd think, that for Sure the Noise wouldn't be a problem. Right? But When ever they have a "Concert" (mind you this is a small brewery with a parking lot which have bands play on weekends.These bands play outside, so that not only their patrons inside the bar can hear, but that their Parking Lot (filled with patrons) can hear the music as well. And this goes on for 5hrs. We live on 33rd, and every time they have a concert, they not only play for the Bar, but they play to the entire community!!! I Love Music!! But I can't love This Music! Most of the bands are bad, but the ones that are good are still ruined by how loud they choose to play the music! It's one thing to listen to good music, but it's a totally different animal to have a Car sitting outside your house blasting Ghetto Punk Rock. (Wouldn't even matter if the music was good! If we didn't pay for it, why should we be forced to listen to it in our own house!!) We shouldn't have to struggle trying to listen to and watch our tv without subtitles, and not being able to do so because the Bar 3 blocks away has decided to hold a Concert for their small venue like a stadium!! T hat is a little bit A lot Too Much!!! Soo, Dear Hellbent From the Lake City Community: We hope you get over yourselves soon, because your "Joy" is disrupting the entire Lake City Community!! Same as those Preachers dressed in purple shouting over a megaphone and speakers on the corner of Lake City and 130th who had the entire neighborhood calling 911, because it was soo intrusive. And what's funny is that You Guys called 911 about them too. (You told us) When you live 3 blocks away from a bar and it sounds like you're in the front row, there's something wrong there. Why should an entire community pay for your lack of effort in your Sound Department? Seems to me that it's You guys who should curb your sound rather than expecting the entire community to curb our routines in our own homes....just saying. I know, I sound like a Karen. And Maybe I am, but in this instance, we pay too much to live in a home that sounds like we live above a dive bar who take payment from a small handful of people at the Cost of an entire Community. Where is Our Cut?? Seems like We Pay More than You Hellbent!! What do We Get Out Of Your Gains?? Sent by an Irked and Concerned Citizen.

It was a great match for the fresh salad, brightened up with some lime, avocado and the dressing. The crispy corn tortilla strips on top were a great crunch. 10/10 would order again.
