I’ve been here a few times when in town. Smells of malt and hops hit you when you walk in the door. Not much parking, but it is a small place so I haven’t had any problem parking in front. The beer is good, Grog is a good IPA but not over the top. The staff is very friendly. Penny (BrewMaster) sat down and talked to me alittle about her beers and the brewery the first time I was there. The food is good. I would recommend stopping here when in town. I’ll be back.

Quaint place in a warehouse district or old part of town. Would be an awesome place for a loft. Interior was small but cozy ... luckily it wasn’t busy when we went there. Great music played in the background (old Nirvana, Modest Mouse, Radiohead) so I felt at home. Friendly service. Good beer. We only ordered some apps but they were delicious, especially the antipasto (or whatever it was called) plate.

Went and checked this one out while we were on vacation and was not overly impressed. The brewer must have a real thing for bitter beers, and the food was nothing to get overly excited about. Not sure if I will head back here next time I travel through Pocatello.

Nice find. Good beer. The "Grog" is a kick ass IPA.

Like Jordo said, hard to find. There was no sign up. Only a small piece of paper in the window that said ’Beer to go.’ Upon entering the establishment, there was no noise or people. At first I thought they forgot to lock the doors. Hello?! echoed out. A dog appeared. Nice dog. Sally was her name. Then the brew masters husband came out. Good guy. We got 5 samplers for free. Apparently there have no consumption liscense, so they are unable to sell their beer at this time. So, it was free. The brewery was small. Two barrels. I guess it was used previously to make soda. They pump out beer though. The place overall was nice. Their son does the artwork for the labels and they have the larger prints on the wall. Nice stuff. Overall I thought that with some work (which they were doing) it would be a pretty cozy little place.

This place was very tough to find. It’s in an industrial section of Pocatello and it doesn’t even have a sign. I could only tell it was a brewery because the address matched and there was a growler next to the dusty CLOSED sign. They were open however. Inside is fairly nice and clean, hardwood floors with lots of well drawn characatures of their beers. The bar is small but sturdy. No one was here and it was dead silent. Only the brewer’s husband and dog were there (nice dog). They didn’t have a beer license so they could only sell growlers or give it away for free. We opted for free samples of their beers. Good selection of their seasonals and some average to above average offerings. Surprising this place is still open. They plan on opening a food service. The brewery is tiny, 2 barrels.
