“A smallish space, it's not what you when you think OC breweries with their big outdoor spaces. However, within the intimacy of the brewery there's some great brews! They work with other breweries and also have their own creations brewed offsite. It's a very chill place to relax with a beer, some games, and something exciting in their tv“

“First time visiting and was beyond exceptional! Had the F-14 sandwich on squaw bread. The sandwich was phenomenal as was my beer. Service was top notch!! Next time I'm in the area, I'll be making another visit!! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would... definitely put this on your list of places to go!!“
“Cool little spot. Happened upon it by word of mouth. They have nice indoor and outdoor seating. Definitely a place to bring g family and friends. They have a view of the mad science going on to create there refreshing elixirs.I had a glass of the gladness beer. It.was.nice!“
“We absolutely love this place. Always have a great time, everyone seems like family, especially the 4 legged family members! Both Brian’s, Hector & the rest of the staff are super friendly and very welcoming. Food trucks are amazing, merchandise is great quality, beer is top notch! Something on tap for everyone. Our usual weekend hangout and it never disappoints.“
“Great place, Great drinks, Great service. This is a small brewery that has a big vibe. Loved the comic books and Lego displays. Loved the seating indoor and outdoor. Shared bathrooms were well kept and clean. Food options and other drink options all available in the same building. Kid Friendly, especially with games available and outdoor activities. 100% recommended for a great stop near Disney.“
“One of my favorite breweries! The team is very friendly and knowledgeable. I’ve had multiple large events here, and the team has been wonderful to work with. Their beer is fantastic and all around great people to work with. I can’t recommend this place enough!“
“Best brewery in Anaheim with the finest customer service in town. I've been visiting for years and have always loved their ipas and red ales. Their variety keeps me coming back as well as my go tos. I love Red Rising here but also enjoy trying their ales, sours and seltzers. It's always clean and dog/kid friendly. This place is tucked away in an industrial park so don't miss it. The ambience and decor is really sweet and caters to board games. I can watch games and fights here on tv, buy some food here or nearby. Kathy, Johnny, Eric and Josh are the best brewtenders you could ever ask for.“
“Very chill microbrewery located on the border of Fullerton and Anaheim. Guys that run this place are very welcoming & laidback. They have a lot of regulars that are nice especially this cute dog that’s here right now, oh yeah it’s dog friendly! For those who join friends to breweries they have soda cans as alternatives. Overall a very cool place music and atmosphere is very mellow and relaxing would come back to support local business.“
“tacos dorados very good. spicy green salsa. enjoyed ensenada fish and also shrimp taco as well. taco governador was terrible. not griddled enough, cheese not melted. very very sad version of this type of taco that i usually love. they were getting pretty overwhelmed and confused with the orders even though it wasn't super crowded. food took a long time.“
“Honey Pot is exactly what I didn't know I could have, and have always wanted. An amazing Meadery with SWEET meads! The staff are amazing, friendly, and knowledgeable about the product. The mead is KILLER and with new flavors constantly in the works, getting a fresh flight to try new things isn't hard. Their staples are delicious, and the modifications to them build depth of flavor that give a fun twist to an already tasty classic. In addition to the mead being great, the atmosphere is awesome: game consoles line the back wall ready for you, there are community nights for things like Magic The Gathering and Trivia, and special events like Mead Brackets and Smash Bros. Tournaments. It's a nerdy mead lovers dream. Ditch the Ren Faire mead, and get over here!“
“I stopped by to a celebration of life for my friends sons passing. The staff were amazing and knowledgeable about all the items on the menu. The beer was good and the food was delicious. I highly recommend it to taste the beers from local microbreweries. In door and outdoor seating with several large TVs to watch your favorite teams play.“
“I came for a short trip to Southern California and stumbled upon this micro brewery thanks to a Lyft driver !Just like one of the other reviews mentioned- this place is a hidden gem!When my friend and I pulled up to the outside we weren't sure to expect since it's inside an office plaza. We almost thought we had the wrong place. Once we were in however we were greeted by a warm atmosphere and found it to be really down to earth and fun. There are big tables and even board games in the back that you can play while sipping on some great beer.We were helped by Jes (Jessica) and she was awesome! She provided great service, was very down to earth, and she went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. She let us try different beers and her fun and engaging personality that added a great flare to the place!I'd love to come back the next time I'm in the OC area!“
“I've been here a few times, and the vibe is always immaculate. There is plenty of seating, they have fast and friendly service, with a lot of amazing options. I am not a big beer drinker, but I can always find something I enjoy. It is in an industrial area so there is plenty of street parking.“
“Atmosphere: Great!Kind of a food hall except mostly outside and fenced in by repurposed shipping containers. It's got a great vibe that's airey and modern but with lots of shade, seating, and public games. There's a little section where you can sit upstairs and enjoy somewhat of a viewFood options: Limited...There aren't too many options and the available ones get kinda pricey and they're nothing special. I wouldn't really come here to eat but getting like a shareable to snack on with friends is a great ideaBeer: Good enoughThere's a brewery here that has some fun options and I'd say it's a nice cherry on top to the vibes. They have a diverse enough selection to satisfy everyone's tastes so definitely grab some brewskies and chill out if you're here“
“Love love this place because of their delicious sours!!!! They have such fun and unique flavors, I am always amazed. Great atmosphere, lots of seating available. They usually always have a good truck available. Please don't stop making sours!! Favorite brewery by far!!“
“Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for a pint, and impressed by the spacious patio and industrial vibe inside. Plastic furniture was a bit rickety, but they had lawn games and space for kids to run around.The IPAs they had seemed to trend hazy, and we tried a couple different ones. Solid but nothing mind-blowing.Bartenders were friendly and efficient, and we took a 4-pack of a different West Coast IPA home.Nice spot to quench your thirst with some friends if you're in Orange.“
“One of the absolute best breweries in Orange County. They create a wide range of styles and are always experimenting. The hazy IPAs are always excellent. Special events and food trucks regularly. At busy times you might need to park in auxiliary parking.“
“I don’t drink often but Marc seems to understand my palette better than myself and recommends me the perfect beverage every time. The atmosphere is a breath of fresh air the moment you walk in, if you’re looking for a good time AND a long time all at once, bring yourself here alone or with a group of friends!“
“I randomly found this spot. It is tucked away but a treasure find. Really good beer, honestly the vibe and beer is the best I've experienced from any other breweries. For IPA's lovers this is your place, but they also have many other beers. Patrick was our server and honestly such a kind soul to be around! Patrick is attentive, knowledgeable, and makes sure you get a beer you like.“
“This is hands down my go-to non-alcoholic Craft Brewery... since starting to drink their non-alcoholic Darks (Stout) and Golden's I have been able to stop drinking alcoholic craft beer. Not only am I saving money but this is a much healthier and lower calorie option. Highly recommend the subscription as it saves money and the free shipping on a four-pack... Wish that my favorite 2 dark brews would be available year round... Breakfast Dark and Campfire Dark. For those that like IPA style beers there is a very good selection available. Love the seasonal offerings but they always sell out way too fast. I hope at some point they can expand their facilities and offer more varieties year-round.“
“Phenomenal, locally owned craft brewery in Santa Ana! The handcrafted beers are extraordinary, and all guests are welcomed by the brewmaster/owner's pop! Their Agua del Rio lager is on tap year-round, everything else rotates. They pair up with wonderful local catering trucks so you won't go hungry! Kaya's Kitchen served up a mean cheese steak and pastrami!“
“Love these cheeky little guys! Frequent collaborators with our local Austin favorite, Pinthouse Pizza, on both barrel-aged stouts and IPAs. Staff really appreciate the beer and took the time to help me figure out favorites. Neat merch and to-go options. Didn't try the food truck, but it was hopping.“
“man the lavender lemonade was so friggin good. you have to try that if u go. the cali veggie burger was deliciously crispy and the salad was yummy too. the price was honestly really good for the drinks. i'd come back for the burger too. lots of indoor and outdoor seating. no apple pay tho so come w cash or a physical card!“
“Beers were great. I really like the setup of this place - there are several distinct areas so you have options for seating/vibe. Free wifi (had a beer while getting some work done). They had a pop up wood fired pizza shop that was excellent - I missed the exact name - Il Pia[xxxxx]? They had live music too. Would come back for sure“
“I came here with my friends to do my 2nd annual fake but real beer festival and it was a fun stop. They have a variety of games to play and a range of drink selection. The workers weren't too interactive, but I think they realized there was just a lot of big groups drinking today and let us all be. It's walking distance from 3-4 other breweries so a great spot to start or even end at cause of that ability to walk.“
“My fiancé and I are visiting California from Ontario, Canada and were looking for a brewery to stop at in the afternoon for a quick bite and a beer. I found Golden Road online and it looked to be what I was looking for. It did not disappoint.This place is HUGE. There is so much indoor and outdoor seating. There are nice big windows, a beautiful bar, tvs, and just the overall feel of the place is awesome. The Mango Cart beer was honestly the best beer i've ever had. Even my usually non-beer-drinking fiancé had one. The fried avocado tacos were amazing. Our server Ryan was great. He was very friendly, especially when he found out we were fellow Ducks fans. We will definitely be back.My only complaint is that we can't take this place (or 12 cases of beer) home with us.“
“Family Friendly and Doggy Friendly. It's best on busy days to Valet, Valet takes cash or you can pay with card in the Restaurant. We took turns watching our pups while the kidos played cards. There are plenty of good places to send someone in your group to pick up food. Yummy beer options and adulting inside. Also, the restroom is accessible.“
“Service was great and food was delicious. Super small shop, they do have an eating area. Their menu is very short with no pricing, but if you want something specific, just ask, im sure they'll make it! I ordered a plate of birria and ate in the restaurant and it was delicious! The tortillas are hand made and soooo yummy! It was a bit pricey, but I guess you pay what you get. $19.00 for deliciousness and of course I couldn't finish the whole plate. It pretty much fed two of us as I gave the left overs to my mom for the next morning.“
“Decided to come check out a local pub named Noble Ale Works and it didn't disappoint. Arrived with my wife and a group of friends and we're immediately greeted by staff and had a great recommendations and variety of stouts. Definitely want to come here to pregame for an angels game next season.“
“I'm really not a huge fan of beer, but I am a huge fan of breweries ;) Not sure why it took me so long to find this place, but it's definitely a great place to go when you want to hang, drink, and eat with your friends!We asked the man in the front for any recommendations that's sweet. He suggested, so I got the What The Huck (Huckleberry Cream Ale). It was pretty bearable for my boyfriend and I, and I actually came to like it (only a little). It was sweet and the aftertaste wasn't like a bitterness I'm used to having. There's an indoor seating area and an outdoor patio with seating. Wasn't hectic the day I went so it's perfect if you needed a place to hang out. I'd have to come back to switch it up from my usual Brewery X.“
“Came here because we heard about the make your own seltzer. The flavors are a touch too sweet but the bartender held back a little and they came out perfect. Pretty cool concept of making your own hard seltzer. We tried to recreate the Baja blast flavor and it was pretty spot on (tropical+key lime) the color isn't the same but the flavor is good. The bartender also made a really good michelada. They had a cool bar and plenty of tables. They also have plenty of parking. The bartender mentioned that it was owned by a few firefighters which I thought was pretty cool.“
“Enter through the pizza place. This brewery is inside the pizza place. Came here early afternoon with a large group that wanted to get beer. There was a lot of room and plenty of parking in the plaza. Cheese bread was delicious. 9-yard pizza was super delicious with lots of ingredients. The ingredients falls off the pizza but its easy to gather and eat it. Service was great and employees seemed happy to have us there.“
“For a taproom with great beers, they make amazing margaritas and offer excellent mezcal. Their food is fresh, healthy and authentic. I stopped by for lunch on Saturday and was seated immediately. I love this place and will be stopping by at my next visit to Newport.“
“We stopped here with our dogs after a day at the beach. Pretty good food and beer! We had the fish tacos and the fish and chips. Both were solid. The patio was perfect to sit outside and enjoy the weather and the server helped us immediately. Bartender was cool too. Try this spot!“
“Great brewery! The place is huge. There is plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. The beer and food I tasted were delicious! The hazy was my favorite. The carnitas tacos were juicy, meaty, and great tasting. The empanadas stole the show. Crispy and delicious! The customer service was friendly and helpful from everyone we encountered. Will visit again!“
“First time here, parking is difficult, get extremely packed. This place is absolutely huge! Inside and outside seating, multiple bars to order from all over the property. Couple regular food trucks that are permanently fixed here. Such good pizza!! Highly recommend coming here just for that. Staff was amazing, from the security outside, the to servers at the bar, to the awesome people at the food. Very clean, dog friendly, tons of photo opps. Great for a date or large groups. Highly recommend, will return and cannot say enough good things about this brewery.“
“Scored some tickets on Stub Hub and got to watch the Angels play from our seats at Brewery X. We got there a little early and checked out the bar and hung out at one of the indoor bar tops. It was nice to have this option and stay in the cool AC before the game started. The sun was bright and hot at our seats. We enjoyed some seltzers and beers and once we got to our seats we had the most delicious carnitas nachos we have ever had at the ballpark. It was a fun experience to hang out at Brewery X, have great seats and in seat dining with delicious food. Only wish I could order my favorite Zebra popcorn to my seat. It was simple enough to take a walk from our seats and visit a concession stand on club level.“
“Solid spot! Good vibes, food, beer and PINBALL!.Didn’t have any food but the menu was good!.I love that the beer is reasonably priced (they have tasty beers for $5 and $6 ) and.the pinball machines are fun to play. $1 per game..Definitely gonna be back with my family and friends….Also, it’s kids friendly.“
“I cam across this brewery completely by accident. It's perfectly tucked away in Costa mesa. When I came they had a folk music band playing that were absolutely incredible. The vibes here are immaculate. The beer selection is small but quality brews. They also have food vendors that change throughout the week. I highly recommend this brewery to anyone visiting/living in the OC.“
“We wanted to check out this winery and it did not disappoint! The best part about it was the 90's rock playlist playing the whole time! We split the flight of 6 wines and we let the staff choose our wines and they were all super tasteful. We also got the combo meat and cheese charcuterie board and we loved everything on it. There were only 2 meats and 2 cheeses plus a lot of nuts, fruits and jams. This is not the cheapest winery to come too but it was quiet and enjoyable.“
“Brewheim hosted our networking reception for an out-of-town group of ~80 and the service from booking the venue to the night of was incredible. We had a large group who were all thrilled with the unique drink selection and the relaxed atmosphere of the venue. Huge shout out to Jonathon who was our primary bartender for the night -- everyone was very appreciative of the fast service and the patience with our large group. And the service didn't end with our event! An attendee left their bag and the morning after when I emailed Samantha she responded in minutes and went above and beyond to get their bag and items returned before their flight that afternoon. Highly recommend hosting your event at Brewheim and this team.“
“Karl Strauss is 5 stars I don’t care who you are! 3 of us had dinner and drinks. Blackened Tuna tacos are big and tasty. The pub burger was a good burger. The food truck burger also good. Mac and cheese a treat. However the boneless sweet Chile garlic wing stole the show.For drinks we had the Poseidon stout - awesome smooth stout!“
“We had a brunch reservation on St. Patrick's Day. We were greeted right away with a friendly smile from the hostess and was seated right away. Our server was friendly and on top of it with the service. Our glasses were never empty which is great considering it was bottomless mimosas. The food however was not all that great. It was edible, but wish it was served a little warmer. I understand it's a buffet style brunch, but I've been to other restaurants where the food isn't cold by the time you return to your seat. I will give this place another try, but will skip the brunch and order off the regular menu.“
“Went in for a couple of beer flights and s growler fill. Excellent IPAs a Pilsner and a red ale. We also enjoy a fresh hot pretzel with some great dipping sauces. Very nice industrial chic atmosphere. The booths are very comfortable for a couple old guys grabbing a beer.“
“Great brewery with some of the best IPAs I’ve had in OC. I stopped on the way to John Wayne airport last night and wish I would have carved out more time to enjoy this place. Loved the 4 beers I enjoyed in my flight and the atmosphere in the very bustling venue. Will be here again next time in the area.“
“This place is so fantastic!!!!! I'm a band director and needed a good, chill place with great food and drink.... Congregation Santa Ana hit the spot.Pork belly tacos.... Ate up in 5 min... So delicious.Mango habanero wings.... So tasty.Beers and drinks!!!!! AmazingDefinitely coming back“
“Came on a Friday for lunch and was happy I did. Never had been here but was in the area for a conference. The cheese bites were killer but definitely something that's shareable. They were delicious! Pizza was good and the traditional Buffalo wings were per usual bar style wings. The service was fairly given it was lunch and only appeared to be 1 waiter. I'd definitely go back if I was near by.“
“First time coming to this location and it was very good. They have a wide selection of bbw and sliders and various beers to taste. Their smokehouse salad was delicious and I really liked their fried pickles and smoked brisket. Very juicy and tender. I also tried their sodas which are pretty cool. They have flavors like pineapple, cherry, orange hibiscus, root beer, vanilla cream soda, and lemon acai. All quite tasty. Staff is friendly and fast wit your order. I like it here and will be back soon as they also have 3 arcade machines to play. Lots of parking and this brewery is located across from Starbucks.“
“A coworker and I stopped in for lunch on a Friday. We were promptly seated at a cute table by the window so it was nice people watch. We both ordered the lunch special which was half a pizza and salad for the great price of $12. Everything tasted amazing and we also shared a bottle of your French Rose. From beginning to end this has by far a very nice lunch with great ambiance and great service. We will definitely be back soon.“
