Ale Spike Camano Island Brewing

There are now two breweries in the Camano Island and Stanwood area! Hooray! My impression was for the longest time there was just one for this area but it's always good to see more options and variety!Ale Spike was our last stop before we wrapped up our day trip of Camano Island. Steve and I both really liked this brewery and found it a great place to unwind and relax! We got two different beers here which we had a good time with! The first one was the A.D.I.D.A.S. Stout. This was an Oatmeal Stout and I really do enjoy those as the chill is in the air during certain times of the year. Rich and smooth this stout was a great place to start with this brewery!Next up we got the Firechicken Amber. I do like my ambers and this one didn't disappoint with it's bready features in it's flavor profile this one was a great beer to wrap our trip up with of the island!

A decent alternative for beer if Tapped Camano is busy, but it wouldn't be my first choice. Ale Spike is located in a warehouse area, and not the hip kind. Outdoor seating is just a picnic table and umbrella behind the building. The clientele that day was mostly white, middle aged men. The bartender that day wasn't very welcoming. He may have just had a bad day, but I felt like he might body slam me if I asked too many questions about their beer. The unfriendly vibe was heightened by Rob Zombie and Ozzy playing loudly as we ordered, which I'd love in a setting where the vibe is good! Without that good vibe though, it just feels like you've intruded on an angry sausage fest.

Fun small local brewery to stop in on a nice afternoon. Good beer. Vietnamese take out place very close if you want to eat, drink and be merry. Love supporting the small local businesses around here!

We enjoy having this brewery on Camano. No food (just a few snacks), but you can bring food in to enjoy with your beer. I highly recommend the Dunkel Lager if it's available, and the Firechicken Amber. Small, and a lot of locals (a great thing). In warmer weather, there is great outdoor seating in front and in back.

I have now been coming to Ale Spike regularly for about a year, it's exciting to have a new freshly brewed craft beer tapped on a near weekly basis. Along with slight alterations being made to recurring favorite recipes. indoor and outdoor seating, light snacks and deliverable food available in the area. a must go if you're visting Camano Island.

I enjoyed the Ale Spike porter at the local Brooklyn Brothers, so when I saw they had a brewery taproom I had to check it out. Located in a little business park next to the airfield. Chris and Lyna are awesome people and made this guy feel welcomed. Great conversation! Several of their own ales are on tap. Couldn't decide so started with a flight. All were great, but in opinion they do dark beers exceptionally well. They don't do every type and added a few guest tap choices for gluten free and non-alcohol (root beer). Coffee also available!There is no food served here. You can either bring your own, or better yet walk a few doors down to Christy's Lumpia. Their menu is posted at Ale Spike so you can call ahead. The bar seats about a dozen, there are a few tables, garage door opens on nice days, and they have a putting green outside. Watch the game or a VHS movie. I'll be back, hopefully for vinyl night.

Wonderful micro-brewery on the outskirts of Stanwood/Camano Island. Super friendly staff and a great selection of yummy beers. These guys are keeping it COVID safe and are working hard to survive during a tough time.

Although it was a year ago, I just couldn't help responding to Nicole G's review when I saw it today...Nicole G failed to mention that this warehouse is actually adjacent property to Camano's international airport.Definitely not a slum & no comparison to the crime ridden SODO & the greater Seattle area.The picnic table tables provided, are an historically, comfortable seating arrangement, encouraging interaction by all the patrons of our favorite brewmaster, Chris ("angry guy) at Ale Spike. Truth is, Chris.

Amazing place to drink beer. Beer is amazing, people are awesome. Almost dropped down from 5 stars, only because I was a little bit disappointed the bartender didn't throw in a free body slam.Everyone here was very friendly, a little disappointed I didn't have anyone like Nicole G. to remind be how much old clientele stink! Mainly because they're lame and not totally RAD like me! Extremely upset that Nicole G. led me to believe that there was food at this venue when in fact there is not. "Sausage fest" as she said? Nope, not a single one, but I'm still hungry. Good thing the beer is good!Also the music playing was great and at a perfect volume. It really just set a great vibe all throughout the place!

An excellent location for great beers. Friendly local atmosphere. Plenty of Bridal Parties seem to come through. Did I mention great beer? And nobody tried to rip my head off Nicole G. Maybe you should come back ? I'll buy you an Amber
