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.

16 oz can from a 4 pack picked up at Kroger. After attending a couple Reubens Oktoberfest events in the past a little surprised to see this one still not rated on my list. Clean and clear golden amber. Spicy and bready malt aroma. Matching flavor, subtle sweetness throughout, cool and clean finish. Easy drinking, and par for the style. Enjoyable brew.

5oz pour at the Fremont location. Pours murky deep gold with a white head. Aroma has some sour fruits, pumpkin, a touch of winter spices. Flavour has thick pumpking, bread crust, warm spices. For a pumpking-centric beer this is quite good.

On tap at Reuben's - Ballard, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a medium white head. Aroma has lots of estery saison yeast, some bubblegum, and grainy notes. Flavour is less estery, with grainy notes, and biscuity malt. A bit rough, a bit estery, and not particularly on style. Meh.
