A great local brewery with some very good brews. Nice little menu to grab a bite or bring a lunch and enjoy inside or out. Friendly staff, welcoming environment and a great place for a brew and a break.
Excellent afternoon stop. I had the IPA and ISA and I liked them both. We also had the cheese plate as a snack which was great. Local cheeses, very good, adults and kids devoured. They also have a selection of non-alcoholic including kombuchas. Cute outdoor beer garden.
They said this is the best brewery on orcas island. They also said this is the only brewery on orcas island. A fun place with good beers. No real food other than snacks but for a brewery that’s ok.
Always awesome. Love this place! Great beer. The Madrona Red is my personal favorite. Great staff as well! Perfect spot to enjoy great beers and friends
This place really surprised me. I wrote in another brewery review that one can't expect much from a small, isolated brewery like this. Demand would allow mediocrity to be acceptable. But the brews were top notch! We ended up making three(?) trips here while on the island, and I tried nearly every offering. It's hard to explain, but the beers had that fresh, homebrew taste to them. Not only would I go back again, I will miss this place now that I've returned home.
We tried the flight and enjoyed the beers. Had the crackers and cheese as well as the smoked salmon...yummo. We had a great time and even got their new hoodie and a beer glass. Fun spot.
We had tried the flight, and it was amazing with pretty big glasses to taste. Small sitting area especially when it's raining.
Good brews, ample seating, well maintained. Will visit again!
Deliciius beer. I had their amber which with an ABV % of 8. So good but one was enough for me! They have a great patio where we brought our puppy to chill with us. The staff is great!
Fantastic little brewery with evening sunlight, right outside the main part of Eastsound. Their chili blonde is unique (not for everyone but definitely a fantastic twist in my opinion). Old Madrona and the Kolsch are go-tos and excellent choices.
The flight is very generous for the price!
Definitely some neigh-sayers below whose reviews I wouldn't put too much trust in.
While having lunch in Eastsound I tried their Elwha Rock IPA and found it quite delicious. So I tracked down the taproom. Nice little brewery on Orcas Island with a very nice and welcoming beertender. A little disappointed they didn't have the same IPA on tap and offered it in can. Should have tried another beer but the IPA was so good I went for it again. Definitely hitting this place back up upon return to this remotely beautiful island.

As a craft beer fan, I couldn't miss this place during my visit. Generous pours for the taster flight and each beer was great. The bartender (potentially the brewer/owner as well?) was laid back and loved cats (always a plus). A cozy taproom but more space in a side room and a big patio. Also picked up a cool ceramic mug done by a local artist.
Such a cool place! We really enjoyed our time drinking their beer and cider.
This place is perfect. You can tell the locals love it, and there’s good reason. The bartender was crushing it all evening with a full taproom, plus our wedding party who were all there for a perfectly wonderful rehearsal dinner. The drinks were super tasty and the pizza was absolutely delicious. Cannot recommend enough. This is a gem.
Great little brewery to visit. My friend and I stopped in and did a tasting. The glasses were actually pretty big, so we split one between the two of us. Really loved the Camano Island Coffee Porter and the Golden Raspberry Wheat
Great select of beers. All made onsight. Not a fancy taproom. Just comfortable. Service is great. Not a lot of food options. I was there in the off-season so difficult to sit in the beer garden. It looked really nice, though. My favorite was the Elwha Rock IPA. Not extremely hoppy. Just right.
Great selection of beers. Their pepper beer was a new and interesting one for us
Very nice to stumble onto a brewery in an out of the way place on Orcas Island. Even better when they have seven of their own beers and all pretty good. I recommend the IPA and the Imperial IPA (Madrona?)
