Specializing in traditional European style beers, Obec is the best Seattle based brewery.

Great, casual hang to bring or meet friends.

Beers are excellent- staff is incredibly knowledgeable and the vibes are phenomenal. Highly recommend if you’re a fan of barrel added porters btw - they have an excellent bottled option that is to die for.

I'm on the board of a community organization that held our annual event at Obec this year and our group had such a fun time. Wayne and the bartender staff all did a fantastic job making sure we were well taken care of. Our small event planning team mostly got to just relax and enjoy gathering with our community after we were done with our very easy set up. Stacey, who oversaw the planning for the event, was a delight to work with in helping us organize, answering all of our questions, ensuring everything was tracked, and even helping us coordinate a food vendor that served delicious tacos made on-site.

Also, I just really love this space... the giant Art Nouveau style mural on the outside of the building, the twinkle lights on the barrels in the event space, the secret door between the main bar and Side Pull Lounge with a library of vinyl record albums, and the lighting and wall decorations all make this place feel like it's thoughtfully put together and loved without being overly stiff.

We will definitely be back.

This was an amazing place to hang out. We were on a road trip with our newly rescued dog, Maybelline. They were very welcoming to her and us.

Best brewery in Seattle if you like proper Czech or just European-style beer. Great atmosphere too!

I visited this place last weekend after a nice Seattle sunset. First time visit and really enjoyed this place, nice beer and the patio place is awesome. Friendly staff and will keep visiting again. Thanks!!

We had my birthday roast here, and it was a blast! They had their own sound system and projector that easily worked for our needs. The bartenders helping us that night made sure it was awesome, really making the whole night special.

We love visiting on normal nights too—especially their vinyl nights! Definitely one of the best breweries in Ballard!

After checking out several breweries in the neighborhood for my husband's retirement party we walked into obec brewing and knew that this was the place. The vibe was vibing, we knew this was the place when we set foot inside. The beautiful back and space was beautifully with all sorts of beautiful lights around the beer barrels the staff was absolutely amazing and on top of it. I would highly recommend having your next function here. We're just stopping for a beer or seven

Great beer and they let us put on Close to the Edge on vinyl when it wasn’t vinyl night.

I really enjoyed this space and their beer! The staff was super friendly and they were playing some pretty good music. It wasn't to busy so it was nice to relax in the space!

I love Obec and they have one of the best beers 🍻 🙌 so smooth and fresh! I have to drive 45 minutes to get there but it's so worth it! Yummy 😋

I really like the brewery. As a non beer drinker it's nice that they have a few different choices for me. I really love the vermouth and soda water.

They have a lot of seating inside and outside. The staff has always been really nice and they tend to have really good food trucks :-).

Overall a great brewery. Very friendly staff with a decent beer selection. I had 2 beers while I was here, the Amber pils which was great and an IPA(wish I could recall name). Both were very good.
