Hey! Have you had a chance to try our lifestyle beer SPARK! yet? Crispy, aromatic and refreshing, and clocking in at a reasonable 2.4% abv, it’s designed for these incoming warm, high activity days.

Don’t think a 2.4% beer can deliver? Swing by the tasting room and sip a sample - I think you just might change your mind. Available on draft and to-go in 4 packs for your next hard work or hard play day.

Be kind, see you in the Motherlode!

And just like that, Beergarden season is upon us!

Pictured here, along with our growing little plant buddies, are Kitfox (a little 3.8% hoppy wheat beer), and Poppy Pedal Pale (5.8% classic pale ale). Both are drinking great, and ready for sipping in or taking with you on your spring motherlode adventures.

Oh! We’re also operating on our ad-hoc late spring hours:
Fridays 5-8
Saturdays 12-8
Sundays 11-5

Come see us! We will keep the beers cold and foamy, and the service kind. 🤙

Releasing today, and just in time for the 4th annual Poppy Pedal Bike Rideabout, is our Poppy Pedal Pale Hazy Hoppy Beer!

The Poppy Pedal Pale was brewed with a portion of middle range Munich malt (from our buds ) and sizable additions of Amarillo and Chinook hops, imparting rad candied orange and dried papaya notes across the sip. The palate is soft and smooth, with a restrained bitterness, and the beer is drinkable as all get out. Swing by and skull a few pints; and pick up a 4-pack to go while you’re here. It is delicious people! Oh, and a portion of proceeds will be donated to to carry on their amazing work championing outdoor trailaccess in Amador County. 🤙

Think you might be hungry? will be rolling up the sushi and firing up some delicious asian fusion dishes all weekend. Don’t snooze on the serious good food.

Tomorrow (Saturday 4/13) is our 4th annual Poppy Pedal, and we will ride RAIN OR SHINE! Pack your slickers, and get ready for puddles. Don’t worry, we will have heaters and coverage at the brewery to help you dry off, and our friends the .lifters will be laying down a select soundtrack to keep your blood pumping.

And hey, Sunday looks like it will be a beautiful day to sit in a beergarden and sip up the weekend. Don’t worry - we will be OPEN from 11am - 5pm! This will hold for all future Sundays across the summer. It’s Break Even season, y’all. See you in the Motherlode!

Orval Day at Break Even - Saturday March 23rd!!

If you’ve visited us at our Beergarden and Kitchen space in quirky Amador City you likely know that we do love our Orval. Made at the Notre Dame d’Orval Abbey in Belgium under the watchful eye of Anne-Francoise Pypaert (the first and only female Master Brewer in a Trappist Monastery), Orval is equal parts tradition, romance, complexity, and depth. Malty and bitter; herbaceous and leathery; fruity and dry.

For the second year now, we are hosting Orval Day at our Beergarden. We’re celebrating our love for this iconic beer through good times special stuffs. We will be offering cellared bottles of Orval of different vintages for comparison and discussion. We’re also raffling off some great Orval and Break Even merch and swag. And we’ve got Wok & Roll here ALL WEEKEND doing a pop-up in our kitchen all weekend long, turning out delicious beer-friendly Asian fare (swipe for a menu!).

One more thing — we are also featuring our homage to Orval, Brett Hearth. This is a further iteration of our flagship copper beer Hearth, but — similar to Orval — is packaged with a dose of Brettanomyces Bruxellensis yeast evolves to impart a silky carbonation, and deeper ranges of flavor and funk over time.

Orval Day is THIS SATURDAY! Brave the weather — we’ve got some easy ups and rain structures to keep you dry. Good times guaranteed.
