15 Best Craft Breweries near Bainbridge Island

“Delicious beer & chill vibes“

“The location was easy to navigate from the ferry terminal and the drive was a nice change of scenery from the usual crush of tall buildings and narrow streets of Seattle. The selection of drinks was superb and the staff were very friendly and attentive to making great recommendations based on your tastes and preferences. Knowledgeable team of great people who made sure the tables were clear and clean. You order your drinks from the bar and can sample to see if you like what's available.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience and definitely one of my top experiences for a brewery outing with fantastic friends in a location that was quiet, comfortable, and immersed in nature. The business park that the brewery is located also features some distilleries within the same parking area so moving from one preference of drink to another was as simple as crossing the parking lots. Great pizza place nearby as well. I would definitely endure the potentially long wait times of the ferries from Seattle to Bainbridge just to enjoy the outing with friends at this brewery.

Also, there's an awesome raptor hanging out in a nest on the cell tower nearby and it'll peek at you if you're seated outside.“

“Good beers and usually a wide variety.“

“Exceptional beer! Such fantastic sours and creative, nuanced flavor! Just back from a week in Belgium and thrilled to find beer (their Walambic and and Flanders Red Sour) that is as good as what I was drinking abroad! Makrut line and lemongrass, peach aged in whisky barrels, sencha green tea - beautiful flavors that shine through in their respective styles!

Ample outdoor seating, huge game shelf, and friendly service!“

“Nice place, good beer selection“

“Great little local ‘small batch’ microbrewery. I had the ‘Queen Anne's Revenge’ (IPA) and the ‘Boathouse Wit’ (Belgian-style witbier), both were excellent. They also have a stand at Magnolia’s Farmers Market Saturday’s. Hadn’t tried the food yet. I will be going back. Dog friendly. Parking is tight on weekends so you probably will park on the street.
Please remember to not drink & drive!“

“Best Brew in B’ town! Kid and dog friendly with other fun activities or just a place to chill after work.“

“My favorite beer made by great people!“

“Happy 2 year anniversary Ridgeline! Love this little gem of a hideaway in the Charleston Business District. Delicious beer, tasty snacks and always welcoming great company! Thank you for all positive vibes and supporting artists and the community.“

“A consistently good, but rarely exceptional brewery. Perhaps my expectations are too high due to the history, head brewer, etc for this brewery, but I was expecting some truly fantastic IPAs. While all of the IPAs on tap were definitely above average, nothing blew us away in the way we hoped. Cloudburst definitely knows what they are doing, though. I expect them to be a pillar of Seattle brewing for the foreseeable future. Staff was fine, but not particularly friendly or knowledgeable. While we went in the middle of winter, it was approximately the same temperature inside as it was outside as well. There are a few kinks to work out as far as service goes.“

“Game Day!! With Bickerson’s!!“

“Really enjoyed the variety of beers, I loved the porter. Fun atmosphere to visit with friends , drink good beer and eat yummy tacos from the Barbacoa truck. Numerous clean bathrooms , baby changing/nursing room so family friendly. We will be back.“

“Went for their new Commander event on Wednesday nights and had a Rootbeer they make in house, which was quite tasty. I ordered some food while there as well from the limited menu, but it was worth ordering as it was delicious and good value. I wish I drank beer, though, as they are providing a free Magic Booster with purchase of your first beer durring their Commander night. I will definitely be back for more nights.“

“The hazy "Kiwi" IPA best we had during our Seattle visit! Bartenders great at giving us traveling advice! Highly recommend!“

“Chaos Bay is where the old McClouds used to be. Supposedly, McClouds moved because of the area being too rowdy and dangerous. I don't believe that because the area is completely quiet and mellow. The breakfast buffet was good and hot. Omelets were big enough for 2 people to share so long as you don't have a BIG appetite.

Parking: Very large parking area. Wheelchair accessible.“
