Description
Holy Mountain is a brewery and taproom located in the Interbay neighborhood of Seattle, founded by co-owners Colin Lenfesty and Mike Murphy in 2014. The influence of oak has always been the focus of the majority of beers brewed at Holy Mountain. A sizable building near the Seattle waterfront has allowed the team to build a vast stock of oak barrels, puncheons, and foudres used for both primary fermentation as well as long-term aging.

The proximity of the brewery to the Yakima Valley also allows the team of brewers to utilize hops from the best producers in the world, constantly exploring the relationship between hops, oak, and mixed fermentation. Holy Mountain doesn't offer any year-round beers, which creates an ever-changing lineup in the brewery taproom. In addition to oak-influenced beers, Holy Mountain also offers a wide range of rotating, hop-forward ales and lagers.

Cone & Cone (2025) - Citra & Comet from Holy Mountain Brewing Company
10 months ago
7.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
On tap at Holy Mountain - Phinney, pours s cloudy pale golden with a medium white head. Aroma has plenty of allium, light pine, a touch of dankness, and some doughy malt. Flavour is super fresh and vibrant, with tons of dank hops, light allium, and citrus. Finishes moderately dank, doughy, and clean. For a hazy with Citra, this is as good as it gets.

Oruza from Holy Mountain Brewing Company
10 months ago
7.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
On tap at Holy Mountain - Phinney, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma has a nice spicy Saaz kick upfront, light grassiness, and crisp crackery malt. Flavour tastes more like a Czech pils than a rice lager courtesy of the Saaz, revealing a real nice spicy hop kick upfront, light grassy bite, and a crisp crackery malt base. Crisp, spicy hop bite on the finish. A great Saaz bomb.

Tangier from Holy Mountain Brewing Company

7.3/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 7 Overall 6.5
On tap at Holy Mountain - Phinney, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has a fresh, floral, herbal hop character, and doughy bready malt. Flavour is very clean, with lightly bitter floral hops, doughy notes, and crisp biscuity malt. Finished bitter, clean and vibrant but I’d like more aggressiveness. Good.

Cone & Cone (2025) - Citra & Comet from Holy Mountain Brewing Company
10 months ago
7.6/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 7 Overall 7.5
On tap at Holy Mountain - Phinney Ridge. Pours opaque yellow with a white head. Lots of fresh Citra on the nose; grassy allium. Flavour is nice and clean, allium from the Citra isn't great, but still pretty good hop expression, light citrus and a dry, bitter finish. About as good as a hazy IPA with Citra can be.

On tap at Holy Mountain - Phinney Ridge. Pours blonde with a slight haze and a white head. Bright citrus and dank oils on the nose; very fresh. Flavour has dank oils, tropical fruits, mineralic. Decent body, a bit light on the carbonation. Nice hopping, though the malt base isn't as robust as I'd like.
