Description
Adam and Grace Robbings opened Reuben’s Brews in 2012, after Adam’s award-winning homebrewing career, naming the brewery after their first child, Reuben.
The original brewery and tasting room in Ballard closed to the public in 2015 when our Taproom opened, but we still brew pilot batches here every week on our 5bbl system. Our Taproom features a brewery right in the middle of the tasting room, where we brew batches of beer that you’ll taste in both here, at The Brewtap, and in distribution. Our system here is 15bbl. In 2019 a new production brewery opened. This is where we brew the majority of the beers you see in cans and bottles on our 30bbl brewhouse, it is also home to The Brewtap, our second tasting room.
At our family brewery we brew from the glass backwards: designing each beer with intention, unbound by constraints. We know making that extra effort is worth it. From your everyday favorites beers to our innovative new releases, we help you grow your love of beer.

Pint can. Amber in color, large beige head. Nose is light roast and malty. Nice flavor of roast and light piney hops. Rye? Reminds me of a CDA more than anything.

Aroma has notes of cantaloupe, bready malt, citrus rind, guava. Taste has a moderate pithy bitterness backed by significant malt sweetness, and light acidity, finishing very dry. Flavors like the aroma descriptors along with a light note of coconut.

Can. Slightly unclear golden body with a medium sized white head. Nice and fresh aroma of grapefruit with some pine and pale malt. Flavor is light smooth pale malt, dominating grapefruit hops, some pine, citric fruit and medium bitterness. Medium body and refreshing aftertaste. Refreshing and nice IPA.

Dark brown, boozy and rich, some headsy phenols from the barrel. Lots of sugar. The base stout is on the sweet side, doesn’t have a complex malt character. It’s decent but definitely a bit too boozy for me.

Dark brown, no head. Medium body, some sweetness, light peanut. Off-dry, light peanut. It’s okay, lots of bourbon, thick malt. So not bad but not their best work.

Pale, gold, effervescent. Thin head, the nose is appley so not to style. It’s okay, medium body, some gloppy malt like they really are far from nailing this.
