10 Barrel Brewing Company
The 10 Barrel Brewing Company dates back to 2006 when twin brothers Jeremy and Chris Cox started a brewery to compliment their bar and restaurant in Bend, Oregon. It has since expanded to Boise and the location has been a very popular spot to enjoy pub food and craft beer from 10 Barrel and other microbreweries across Idaho. Come here to try the rotating seasonal selections and classic favorites like the Apocalypse IPA.

Payette Brewing Company
Payette Brewing Company has that feel-good story you want all microbreweries to have. Mike Francis, founder of Payette, left his corporate engineering job in Seattle to move back home to Boise to open a brewery. Payette operates under a 15 barrel brewing system and has four year-round selections you can find in restaurants and retail locations throughout the state of Idaho. Visitors frequent the tasting room attached to the brewery for growler fill-ups and weekly specials.

Sockeye has limited year-long beer selections as well as six established beers deemed the Sockeye “Natives.”
