Lazy Boy Brewing

Warehouse-style brewery space, but really low key. Felt like a someone's basement, and I guess that was more on the service, clientele and beers, all of which came across as homey, laid back and semi-pro. I was kind of surprised; they've been around a while. The beers were weaker than expected, and I guess that is my biggest point of issue.

In the corner of an industrial area, this local favorite is warm and inviting. Service was great, with a laisee fare attitude to running a tab and just worry about paying me when your done was nice. Service was interested and interactive as I chose to be which is what I like. Beers were much better in the tap room than I have had elsewhere and they were big and bold. Small pours at a reasonable price make this a really nice stop for me.

A grungy warehouse tucked away at the end of an industrial park. It’s not the most inviting or comfortable place, but it’s got character. 10 beers on tap, all more or less in the middle of road. Flights are available, but you have to ask specifically for which ones you want, as they will give you pre-set beers otherwise. Service is not overly friendly but accommodating. Prices are reasonable. Wouldn’t overly recommend this place unless you’re in the area.

This place is super hard to find if you’ve never been. My GPS got me to the wrong spot (though very close), and it took some doing to check the map and figure out a way to navigate there. Once we did find it, we had a nice time inside. It was a warehouse with a small bar and some picnic tables inside. They had 10 of their own beers on tap, and popcorn and pretzels to munch on, if you’re so inclined. They’ll do flights, but you have to specifically ask for all of them, if you want to do that option. Beer was decent, and they had quite a few options (10 taps), but the styles didn’t seem to go with the season, nor did they have anything from the porter/stout family on. Good place to stop, though.

Finally after how many years of drinking this beer I finally stop by. Great place. Love the brewery and the tap house was perfect for a brew. Shaun does a great job and the beers are perfect. Bring food if needed but otherwise have a great time.

Although the location isn’t very public transport friendly, this is a nice place to sample some of the brewery’s non-bottled beers and chat with the brewer. I would definitely be a regular if I lived in the neighborhood.

Very much a working production facility, and not quite as easy to find as I might care to admit. It’s tucked in around the back of Everett Mall, and, to complicate that fact even further, it’s tucked in behind a gymnastics academy. You have to drive in and scope around the parking lot a little--the Kegs to Go! sign is your beacon. This is pretty much a one-man op, and your entertainment options are confined to beers once you’re inside. You can get a one-spot brewery tour if Shawn’s feeling magnanimous, I would bet--he could stand you at the edge of the tasting area and point at different things and you could finish the whole tour that way. All their bottled stuff is for sale, and if there are kegs of stuff around, you can probably get a pour for there or to go. This place has grown up a lot in just a few years, and it’ll be interesting to see where it goes from here. Lots of tasty mainstream ales to quaff.
