Humboldt Regeneration Brewery Farm

My boyfriend and I flew in from LA on a Saturday afternoon starving and in search of a few drinks. I suggested this place based on its good Yelp reviews, so we drove around trying to find it. We made a few wrong turns because it 's not super easy to find, but eventually we made it. We walked inside and I was surprised that there weren 't any tables or chairs. Not exactly what we were expecting, so we quickly decided to just leave. We made it back to the car before I said, maybe we could get a few growlers for the Airbnb? So we went back inside. It didn 't appear that anyone was even working for a few minutes, but eventually the owner emerged from a sort of freezer-looking-thing and greeted us. He was very friendly and took the time to explain all of the beers he had to offer, and that he grew everything on his own farm. Eventually we settled on an IPA and a plum sour (he warned us that his sours are very sour, but the plum is the most mild. While he got to work filling and sealing our growlers, he gave us some suggestions on what else to do while we 're in the area. When we tried the beers later that night, we were both super impressed with how good they were. They 're sort of cloudy, like an unfiltered apple cider, and somewhat earthy, but in a good way. We especially loved the plum sour. We were just bummed we didn 't have more room in our carry-on bags to take some more home with us!

This is a surprising intimate spot located behind a storage locker farm. When you find it, you will be struck by the passion and knowledge of your barkeep who generally is the brewer You will be standing in the brewery in the midst of the equipment and having a extremely intense experience. The brewer explains that all of the makings are organic and generally locally sourced. His specialty is Belgians and the like. Very good if that is your bag. Not a IPA or Medium body amber ale to be found.

You know a place is going to be good when it 's tucked into a warehouse in a little industrial complex, and the only way to find it are the hand-painted signs saying Farm Beer with arrows pointing the way. Nice variety of unique brews here... some sour, some brettanomyces... enjoyed the oud bruin, the sour stout with reishi mushrooms, the hefeweizen with cocoa nibs. Small, experimental place, but some of the best brews we 've had in the Humboldt area

Humboldt Regeneration is a unique brewery. They have a take on craft brews you won't see many other places. The location is pup friendly and had water great for an active Alley pup. The location is in a storage unit so it isn't anything fancy but they have some seating inside and room for a few pups like myself and my friend. If it was busy I wouldn't want to be here as it's so small my paws might get stepped on. The beers the humans tried were interesting and had some flavors like a dill pickle you won't get anywhere else. The beers mainly have a low alcohol content so you can try a few without worrying about driving home.

I visited Humboldt Regeneration early one Sunday afternoon. It's hidden on the back side of an industrial looking business complex. It's a small space overall. I met Jacob, the owner and brewmaster he was running the show the day I visited. Really nice, interesting guy. He grows the majority of the products that go into making his brews. He malts his own barley and wheat on site, which is, in my experience, unusual for a craft brewery. It's a small space, the brewing and tasting area are all together. I ordered a tasting flight of the following: Blasphemy Red Jay Belgian Red IPA (6.8% ABV) Cabernet Thyme Gruit (4.9% ABV) McPales Centennial IPA (5.9% ABV) Belgian IPA (6.0% ABV) IHA Centennial Saaz (5.9% ABV) Apple Wood Blonde Ale (6.0% ABV) I enjoyed all the ales I tasted except for I was not a fan of the IHA Centennial Saaz. I thought the Gruit was an interesting beer I've never experienced this style beer before this visit. Jacob explained that this style beer used no Hops historically, it was apparently a style brewed by cultures that had no access to hops (or were unaware of hops). So herbs are used as a bittering agent and to flavor the beer. The Blasphemy Red Jay Belgian Red IPA was my favorite. They had other beers, but I did not try them all on this day. Next time I am in the area, I will definitely visit Humboldt Regeneration again! #HumboldtRegeneration
