    Their free brewery tour is the best ever! You get to learn a lot about their history, see the production line, sample lot of beers and even get a free souvenir.

    Get the Beer Sampler to try all of the Latest & Greatest Sierra Beers on Tap. One of the Best Breweries in California, Incredible Food and Amazing Beers, it's a must stop if you are in the area.

    Tri-tip steak is amazing! Live all their beers, but especially the Southern Hemisphere Harvest

    Get the pretzels with beer cheese - SO good. Sierra Nevada salad was simple but pretty good. Tuscan chicken sandwich was good too.

    Book a free brewery tour on their website a week or two in advance and make sure to arrive 15 min early.

    Each Sierra Nevada keg is marked with a green and orange stripe. These stripes match Ken Grossman's favorite hiking socks.

    They have a tour inside the brewery where you learn so much on what comes in the beer, what they use to make the beer. Its a great place to get educated on your beers.

    The brewery recycled almost 97% of its total waste in 2006; it reuses CO2 produced during fermentation & rewards employees who bike to work. Take a growler to go, it's more eco friendly than bottles!

    Beer, beer, beer! Friends, family and co-workers! Foods ok, but it's all about the beer. Flat bread with hummus is awesome!

    The "Hop Torpedo," a stainless steel device packed with whole, cone hops, is the brewery's unique way of adding hop aroma to beer with no additional bitterness. Read more

    The tour was a really neat look at the inner workings. The beer tasting was good, but trying all the audition beers in the taproom was better!

    The food is just okay. The fries were cooked in old oil and thus greasy. Hold their special sauce and it tastes like McDonald's special sauce. My burger was tasty and grilled perfectly.

    The aromas from the hops outside remind me of home. Chico is home of course and San Francisco doesn't smell the same.

    The Brewery’s Celebration made our list of 8 great winter beers for its robust flavor and hop-forward aroma of Christmas trees and freshly peeled grapefruit.

    Check your alcohol % quite possibly the highest I've seen on tap anywhere around.
