You come out of the mountains and what do you see but Suds Brothers Brewing. Evanston is not the greatest place int he world but they got beer. Suds is a great little brewery 3bbl system with some pretty nice brews. Must go in during happy hour 4-6pm the brews are 2 buck a pint. Damn that was perfect for me, Great Porter and IPA. I am glad I stopped. Decent bar food and they have quite the large area this place must get packed during night times.

this joint reminded me of a converted brothel???... very cool reclaimed wood building in downtown. open kitchen, brewing equipment and bathrooms? seven beers on tap. attentive service (though it was midday and very laid back) but very mediocre grub.

In downtown Evanston. They had 8 beers on tap along with a full bar.
The bar itself only had about 6 chairs, but there is tables nearby. Kind of a western feel, minimally decorated.
The staff if friendly. I’ll be back.

I don’t know how I forgot to enter this. A cool local watering hole right in downtown Evanston. A nice and basic pub grub and a busy afternoon atmosphere. A sort of Western hippie feel, very relaxed. Bags of malt lying around. Six beers on tap, all decent. A cool place all around, I’ll try to head here every few months.

Same building as the now-defunct Bear River Brewing, Suds Brothers opened in July 2007, a couple of years after the Bear River owner passed away. The front of the building was renovated, and it actually resembles a brewpub these days, unlike the previous brewery. Standard food - burgers, pizza, sandwiches, etc. Beer selection was porter, pale ale, hefeweizen, orange blossom wit, nut brown and a Belgian strong ale , which was running out as I was there. Beer quality an improvement over the previous brewery located in town, and the waitresses were smoking hot.
