Pretty place in a strip mall setting, parking is limited. Inside is a mish mash of seating from long high table to lounge area. There is a bottle shop here also. Only 2 of the taps are their own, about 8 guest taps. Usually kind of quiet, I've yet to run into a crowd here. Servie is good, beer is hit and miss.

Definitely a neat option, located in the Bench area of Boise; a homebrew supply shop that doubles as a (smaller) bottle shop, with a selection of brews on tap including their own brews, making this place a Brewery/Bottle Shop/Homebrew Supply Store. Pretty cool. Nothing special in the location, though there is plenty of space and tables for seating large parties, and the bottle selection is all kept cold in the cooler. There aren't a ton of bottle/can options but they seem to choose the right ones to have on hand (quality and rarity), and their are about 8 tap options from mostly local breweries, as well as Kombucha and cider (they brew their own hard kombucha, which is also delicious). Definitely check it out if you can.

its awesome that this place exists, so much more than just a generic homebrew shop! its also a small little brewery, operating on a homebrew scale in terms of volume, and always keeping a few of their beers on their impressive draft menu which features all kinds of other craft beers, even wine. they also have a solid selection of beer to go in their little bottle shop section, sell all kinds of brewing equipment and ingredients, teach classes and do custom brews, and have a little stage in here for some live entertainment! you would never know from the humble exterior of the place that so much is going on inside, so glad i walked in! i only had time for one beer, their citra smash ipa, which was decent but not amazing in terms of flavor or execution, but it looks like they change things up pretty regularly, so ill go back and try more soon. the selection is awesome, the dudes working are friendly, knowledgeable, and cool to chat with, and they have a nice lineup of to go beer and wine as well. definitely a neat little spot, super low key, and obviously run by people who are passionate about beer and brewing. ill be in here quite frequently i think,and am already thankful for this business. need to try more of their house beers next time!
