About
Founded in 2012, Cloud 9 Brewery is a nanopub concept featuring locally sourced and organic components in both the brewery and restaurant.
With an emphasis on creative brewing, Cloud 9 is situated in a unique place in the market. Instead of having the exact same line-up from month to month, the beers on-tap at Cloud 9 change as soon as the last drop from the previous batch has been poured. With so many taps, and only 6 year-round beers, the variety is truly amazing.
Cloud 9 also features a unique feedback process by which we judge what beer-drinkers actually think. We collate and analyze the input and use that to shape the direction of the next batch. In this way the community is involved in the brewing process from concept to the final foamy pint.
A commitment to quality, service and genuine interest in our community make Cloud 9 Brewery the place for beer aficionados, foodies, and everyone who enjoys fresh and unique culinary creations.

Rye Strong Ale from Cloud 9 Brewery

7.1/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
On tap at the Boise BP hazy golden wispy head and lacing. Light fruity aroma. More like a Tripel. Fairly sweet heavy palate, low bitterness, some more Belgian fruit yeast flavors. Soft carbonation. The ABV comes through a bit as well. Nice.

Saison S.M.A.S.H. Beer from Cloud 9 Brewery
12 years ago
6.2/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6
Simple and light, ale. Saison? Not so sure. Light bodied and light golden, with thin airy head. Single malt and hops gives it a subdued character, not like a traditional NW ale. Easy to drink, and a good food accompaniment.

On tap at the Boise Nano-Brew Pub. Hazy dingy yellow with a tin fine and persistent head. Light bready flavor. A touch of noble hops. Very mild. Seems wheaty...more like an American Hef. Still, mild and tasty.
