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.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear gold with a large creamy white head. Aroma of yeast and coriander. Med body for sure. Flavor is coriander, zest, yeast/spice (which might be rye) and an earthy note making me think of Brett. Dry. Zest for bitter. Really good. Rye comes forth in the finish I think.

On Tap at Homestead, Meridian. milky light yellow orange with a fine dense white head. Tropical fruity hop aromas, mango, papya orange banana even. Flavors are similar but some nice sharp pithy bite as well. Full bodied and smooth.

Grapefruit and decent malt. Pretty good West Coast DIPA but nothing stand out. Ticks all the boxes. Clear golden pour with decent head. Bitter finish with a little tang. Can.

Red waxed bomber pours with a murky mahogany colored body that supports a thin tan head of foam. The aroma offers up a quick whiff of caramel like reduced sugars before a fair load of booze and bourbon take over with hints of oak and booze nuanced vanilla. The taste delivers a pleasing wedge of kettle caramelization and various lightly roasted malts flowing into the barrel treatment notes. I get a modest booze burn as the bourbon bourbon starts to take hold. As it warms the caramel flows further into the finish to meet up with a faint sense of sweet vanilla. This is a great boozy sipper.

On tap at Reuben's, pours a hazy bright golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out herbal hops, gentle pine, and toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is assertive, with lots of dank hops, some herbal notes, pine, and crisp biscuity malt. Maybe not the best hop expression but it's clean and drinkable.
