Bear Island Brewing Co. is a beloved Boise brewing icon, founded by Beth and her family. The brewery offers a great selection of flagship beers, including the popular Idaho Potato Ale, Ammo Bocks, and the seasonal Lady M Stout. Customers praise the high-quality, flavorful beers like the Idaho Pale Ale and the Triple Tater Beer, along with the welcoming, friendly atmosphere. The brewery has grown from a garage operation to a thriving establishment in the former Firehouse #6, thanks to the leadership of Beth and the brewing expertise of head brewer Alex. Locals and visitors alike highly recommend trying the seasonal offerings, with the Christmas in your mouth, Lady M, and Schokolade beers receiving particular acclaim. The fun, chill atmosphere features approachable and engaging regulars, while the veteran-owned spot hosts plenty of community events. Bartenders like Mason and Mindy provide excellent service, making it a must-visit for both locals and out-of-town guests.
