This is a great local brewery. They have a nice selection of beers and you can get different sizes. They have trivia on Tuesday nights, which is really fun. The service is excellent and super friendly. You can have kids and leashed dogs here. I went here on a non trivia night and it was hard to get a table since later in the week is really popular. El Camion food truck is nearby where you can order ahead and eat it at the brewery. You can bring outside take out in. You get 10% off if you work at Seattle Children's Hospital. I'm a fan and will be back!

As someone who recently started liking beer and can't handle anything too intense like IPAs, Burke Gilman has recently become a go to. They always have a wide variety of beers and ciders so there is something for everyone and they are very helpful with explaining the types of beer/ letting you try a sample if needed. I have gone more than a few times and have always gotten great service and been able to find seating easily.

First place we went to when I got my bike was here! It seems like thats where all the bikers go! There was a discount if you ride your bike there on Sunday. Folks were nice and they knew a lot about their brews. It's right along the Burke Gilman trail.

As I'm writing this review, I'm enjoying one of their beers, I got, to go, a tasty hazy that goes by the name 'Dry Spell', the saying on the can reads ' it's winter, we don't have to worry about a dry spell for awhile' , truth spoken there about the PNW! Enjoying the rain and all the flavorful beers here. So many great breweries, I can get FOMO just thinking about it! Lol Between the beers tried at the brewery and home from Burke-Gillman, they do a great job of brewing a well diverse palate of brews, at the moment, they have some great WC and hazy, low ABV brews, full of flavor, not over hopped, go down way too smoothly. Also yummy sours and seisons. A beer or cider or wine for anyone. If you ride in on a bike on Sunday, you get a discount, and no! If you hike in ya don't! Trust me, I tried. Lol and yet I can still say the service was friendly and knowledgeable, great conversation about hops used, going to use, and ones to be spoken of no more. Great location, close to U of W, so I didn't dare wear my Cal hat. However, their beers, especially the hazy and sour reminded me of one of my favorite breweries in Berkeley... I'll let you try the brews and guess which one I'm talking about. Looking forward to return visits. Lots of food choice's near by, that you're welcome to bring in. Outside seating as well, on those dry spells. Happy Yelping, God bless and cheers!

If there's one thing that Seattle has a good amount of, it's breweries. And for that, I am THANKFUL. Not all breweries are created equally, though, and Burke-Gilman definitely is a force to be reckoned with in the beer scene. Admittedly, I stopped by because I happened to be working with them on a Diaper Drive in benefit of Step by Step based out of Puyallup, but I stopped by one day.... And then I stopped by the next day, too. Whoops. They are small on the inside, but they have outdoor seating with several tables. They have heaters, but I wouldn't say that put off a great amount of warmth, so wear layers if you get cold easily. The beers are SUPER tasty. I love that they did an International Women's Day Brew during March - I forget the name but I know the word "sisters" was in it. Loved it so much! Had a few of those both days I went. I also love their Hypothesis IPA - lots of flavor in that one. Another really cool thing that I spotted that they do is "Buy A Beer For a Seattle Children's parent," which is pretty self-explanatory. You can beer-it-forward and purchase for a parent going to/from Seattle Children's. I think that's a really awesome thing to do and commend them for giving the community the opportunity to support parents, even if it just means with a tasty beer. You'll also find some really great "I Don't Drink Beer With Racists" stickers here, which I promptly purchased and slapped on my laptop. #realtalkLove beer? Go here. Thank me later.

We loved our trip to Burke-Gilman Brewing. We had tried some of their stouts and barley wine at a Winterfest event and were excited to visit their brick and mortar location. The long and short of it: excellent beer, great atmosphere, fantastic staff, and trivia night was a hoot even though our team (Griffey Gang) came almost in last. Beware it does get quite busy on Wednesday nights!

Quite a cool little spot just a few blocks from Seattle Children's Hospital. We dropped in while one of our little dudes was at an appointment and discovered some delicious IPAs with hops from where we hail from! The hopsplainer and hopothesis were both gold medal winners in the 2020 hazy IPA category and were lovely!They are definitely an IPA heavy spot, but do you have a number of a good number of Belgians that are available and, per the report, some upcoming barrel aged stuff. They had seven or eight different options in the cooler as well as some juice boxes for the young lads.When the world opens up again, this will be a super cool spot to check out and actually sit down to have a beer at.Easy to get in and out, especially if the parking spots are open!

I saw these guys for the first time at fresh hop fest in Yakima. They had the longest line. We tried a few of the barrel aged beers. A strong ale and a dubble. The strong ale was my preferred of the two, but both were nice. I will have to check it out again in the near future.

I was passing by and wanted to get some beer or cider to go. They not only have everything available to go (if they have it on tap of course), but they can put it in a can to go for you! I had to dash today but I can't wait to come back and enjoy a brew and some food. I got a pint size can of the Habanero Lime Cider to go! They poured it into and sealed the can right in front of me. How cool is that?

Very chill and casual neighborhood spot for families and runners/bikers to stop at along the trail. Enjoyed the habanero lime and mosaic orange ciders with nice views on the outdoor patio.
