Knee Deep Brewery and Tap House

Located near the airport in Auburn, in an industrial park, a block from Moonraker. Taps are located right in the brewhouse, 2 bars and a merch stand. About 12 taps and bottles to go. Shaded patio out front. Food trucks every day of the week. KNown for their hoppy beers, the taproom did not disappoint. A few other styles available as well. Nice space

Knee Deep Brewing Co in Auburn is really cool brewery to visit and have a beer or two. It's a classic brewery taproom inside the brewery production facilities. Cool industrial vibe. There is also the outside area with tables. There is a food truck outside as well. It's kid and dog friendly. And the beers are excellent. Flights of 4 are available. 20 beers on tap. Some merchandise and beers to go also available. Definitely 5 out of 5. Absolutely great place. Also my wife and kids loved it (there was a dog to play with).

We decided to visit this place quite spontaneously on a drive from Grass Valley back to Sacramento and were really pleasantly surprised by the place. Big warehouse looking taproom and brewery. Big list of regular and seasonal beers on offer. Flights are available. We tried a few things and found most of the beers to be good or better. Particularly liked the Imperial Tanilla Porter and the Stow the Croze barley wine. No food at the taproom itself but there was a food truck outside with great hotdogs. Prices were decent. Can really recommend a visit here when in the area.

Located in a rural part of North Auburn, this brewery has a tasting area with a bunch of picnic tables and two walk-up counters for ordering beer. Reasonably loud music in the background? Large TV, brewing equipment completely visible. Around 30 taps of pretty good beer and usually a food truck outside.

A huge building with a big tasting room on one side. 2 tap setups for when it’s busy. Lots of picnic tables inside and out. Service was fast and friendly. Good prices, $7 for a flight of 4 - 6oz. Only a few miles off I-80.

They don’t have food on site, but they do hire great food caterers to partake in quality food with quality beer.

Place is a bit out there, but that doesn’t keep half of California from showing up on a Sunday. Huge line out the door, served by two friendly staff who seem to not care two shits about how long the line is. I am not sure I have ever witnessed more lackadaisical service before. I would have walked out, but a drive all this way and I want my flight. After the thirty minutes wait I got my pours. Of course there was no place to sit... Basically an open brewery, picnic tables in and out. Equipment on full display. Food truck is it for dining options. Family and pet friendly. Beers excellent, but I knew that already. And I’ll be damned Andrew - your cat person was there today as well. Odd cat with a smooshed face who seemed at home on a leash.

Business/industrial park tasting room. Large warehouse space with a pretty decent amount of seating and a large bar where you can place your order. They allow pets here as well and I think for the first time I’ve ever seen at a brewery, someone had brought their cat (pretty neat)!

They have a lot of different stuff available but their hoppy beers are really what they do best. There’s some decent variety, but I’m not sure how much I really cared for their non-IPA/pale ale styles.But, I don’t really like how overly strong a lot of their beers are.

Anyway, the service is good and the beers are pretty solid for the most part. It’s not quite as close to the freeway as some of the other stops along the route on 80, but it’s not too far away either.

Amazing selection of IPAs. Food truck outside.

No food like Auburn AH, but you can bring your own. Ample room, and the hoppy beers are to die for...great selection on tap as well. Better beer, just not as nice a place.
