Can I pick up and try beers at either location? Going to Sacramento Wednesday and wanna try a few on tap and maybe grab a few freshly bottled beers. Beers here locally are bottled 2/25. Which place is nicer? Auburn or Lincoln? Thanks in advance
I believe Auburn is the only location to pick up bottles, that is where the bottling line is now and Auburn is much nicer. They will also fill up palla-style growlers if you have any blanks or taped over logos. Have a great time!
Auburn is the new taproom, when i went 2 weeks ago they said the old lincoln location only had a few things still brewing but everything was going to be moved over to Auburn very soon. Awesome to see how busy the place was when i went too.
They only filled growlers in Lincoln on Fridays with no tap room, and I believe the growler filling has stopped since the Auburn location opened up. If you'll be going up to Auburn, make sure to stop by Final Gravity. Shoot me a PM and I might be able to meet up with you - I'll bring something nice! Edit: Final Gravity is in Roseville, which is 10-15 minutes west of Auburn off of 80.
Thanks for the advice, I'll be in auburn tomorrow at some point tomorrow, headed to Russian river first thing in the morning. Wife is done with work stuff at 430 so I'm gonna try to fit in quite a bit. Does Berryessa bottle anything?
Unfortunately, no. If you can make it to their tasting room though, it's really worth it. Most growler fills are only $10. With the nice weather this week, their outdoor seating area will be nice.
I don't believe they're open until Friday - and they don't bottle. Like porkinator said - FG is the best bottle shop in the area.
