Spent some time here while waiting for a friend to arrive at the airport (2 minutes away!). It's a great local bar with a good atmosphere, great drinks, and board games. We felt very welcome and would love to stop again on our next trip to Steamboat! read more

Terrible service in Craig, CO, (actually no service staff at all), staff were rude, food not great, tables not clean and the bartender and the guy that took our food orders lied to us about ice. They said because they were a Tavern it was illegal in the state of Colorado to provide ice for anything. I asked them that on the menu it says ice tea so does the tea have ice, got the same answer. Water we had to get out of a water jug dispenser ourselves that wasn't cold. They also were rude to us because there were 15 in our group. One would think that in a small town they would be glad to have that extra business but they just complained about it. I hope the owners read this and gets staff in there that wants to service its customers. DON'T PATRONIZE THIS ESTABLISHMENT ! read more

While passing through Craig, CO decided to stop at this quaint brewery. We weren't disappointed. Friendly staff large assortment of beers- even offered a taste before ordering. Best pub food at Lo Cal. You won't go wrong with the build your own burger and fresh salads. We will be back! read more

A brewery in Hayden! What?? What a pleasant surprise to find this in Hayden. While nothing wrong with the town bar, it is nice to have this little gem. The beer was good and the atmosphere is comfortable and inviting. I will be back on my next visit to Hayden. I didn't eat at the food truck but what a great idea to have that right outside the brewery. Ohhh! Possible to make some the writing a bit bigger on the chalkboard behind the bar? I had my contacts in and still had a bit of a problem seeing it. read more

New on Lincoln Ave in Steamboat. If you want a 3pm (ish) beer in the sun, head to the patio and pull out a couple Adirondack chairs. We each had a couple of their lightest beers on tap after lunch elsewhere (I don't think there is food here). I saw others enjoying beer flights. Great to catch some Vitamin D, have a drink, and then walk around the shops on Lincoln. read more

Excellent service and incredible beer! Must stop here when in town. Kitchen with great food as well! Thanks!

I have to give some major kudos to Yampa Valley Brewing Company. I went to Steamboat Springs to see some friends last fall and though they were not able to get together to the evening I decided to go and check out the breweries in the area. Steamboat got some new ones since my last visit as well as Hayden. I made a drive over to Hayden and got to the brewery. The door was unlocked and I went in but was told by someone in the back that their taproom wasn't open yet so the hours that I was going off of on Yelp did not seem to be correct. However the people that run this brewery were so incredibly sweet and let me stay so I could have a beer and I didn't even need to plead in the slightest. Now that's accommodating! At Yampa Brewing I got their Valley Girl Blonde which was excellent. I chatted with the the young lady that served me and we had a nice chat about my trip to Colorado, my Wyoming origins and where I currently live which is Washington state. I only got one beer here because I didn't want to cause anymore interference on their part but I can't rave enough about how kind they were despite my visit being outside of the taproom's operating hours. Now that is going above and beyond with customer service! Thanks so much! read more

Pulled in about 6pm, no food service yet the coworkers pointed us to Embers Pizza around the corner. Had a couple of great beers waiting for the pizza that was heat as well. read more

Really only ended up here because we had already visited every place labeled as a brewery in Steamboat Springs proper. Definitely glad we went. Excellent beer and great staff. Not only worth stopping in on one's way through, but actually a great destination for a day trip. My hands down favorite place in the Yampa Valley. Wish it was closer to home for us. My 209th brewery visited, and definitely a personal favorite. read more

If you're not a local or regular, don't expect service. Stopped in after ordering food from the food truck next to it thought I'd have a beer while I waited for my food order. Walked in to the bar 1 guy was sitting at a table looking at his phone, I waited at the bar for a couple of minutes, and gave up. As I'm walking out the door the guy from the table gets behind the bar, it's the bartender! Never acknowledged me, just gave me a go to hell look as I walked out. I live in Hayden, first and last time I'll step foot in this establishment. read more

Possibly the most happening place in Hayden, this brewery is a must-visit while in town. They've created a great new space next to the granary downtown with an awesome outdoor patio area, often complete with food truck for snacks. The seasonal beer rotation is phenomenal, yet they've always got the crowd favorites on tap as well. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The ambiance is typically great, however the only odd thing I notice there regularly is the surprising number of children running around. A brewery seems an odd place to encounter large groups of children running around indoors and outdoors, but it's a pretty regular occurrence. It's a small community, and I people have kids, so I guess everyone has the green light to bring their kids with them tot he bar. Possibly one of my favorite places in Hayden, great beer, awesome location, often just a few too many kids running around in the evenings... read more

Stopped in on a tip that they had an NFL package (a friend NEEDED this); great find! A bit hidden (behind a liquor store off the main drag). Really clean, chill atmosphere; you can tell a lot of love and thought has gone into opening this place. 3 beers on tap currently- the porter was solid. No food. Kid and dog friendly- even had some table top games. Root beer/ginger ale available for the under 21 crowd. Cool place if your in/near/passing through Hayden. read more

Stopped here on a road trip and all I can say is not only is the environment very friendly the food was amazing I got a veggie burger and the cook recommended the ranch Aïoli and it was phenomenal on the burger! read more

Sorry to say that the beer was not drinkable. My friend and I came over from Steamboat to test this out and had the sampler. Really, really.......not good. It is unheard of for me to not want any of the beers after having a sampler, until now. read more

Drink the snowberries! Cranberry plum sour. Yes please! Wish we could have tried the food truck but we visited to early. Not far from steamboat springs. Worth the drive. read more

I never leave Yelp reviews but this was such a terrible experience I had to leave some comments. I came down from Steamboat to check out YVBC with my girlfriend. The tap room smelled like cigarette smoke when we walked in but I ignored it. We ordered the Session IPA and after taking two sips, I asked for my tab and we left two full beers on the bar. It was the worst beer I have ever tasted and reminded me of the first time I home-brewed in my kitchen. I enjoy checking out new breweries but I guess I will stick to the bars in Steamboat. read more

Loved it! Great beer, especially the lager. Comfortable taproom and friendly brewers.

Great beer, great atmosphere. I try microbreweries wherever I travel. YVBC ranks up with the best of them! Since I live in Hayden, it's perfect. I don't have to travel far. Keep up the great brews. read more
