At the site of where it all began, our taproom is located 6.5 miles east of Highway 101 in sunny and picturesque Blue Lake, CA, just a stone’s throw from the Mad River.

Decorated to incorporate aspects of the Brewery’s history as well as it’s tribal identity, The Mad River Brewery and Taproom offers a refreshing and laid-back atmosphere. Visitors can get both tried-and-true flagship beers like Steelhead Extra Pale Ale and our Jamaica Red Ale as well as small-batch fan-favorites and interesting seasonal varietals that indulge our experimental side, exclusively on tap in our taproom throughout the year.

Welcoming vibes, pet-friendly, and a true gathering place, the taproom features, in addition to indoor bar and seating, extended outdoor dining space that is complementary to the pleasant weather and lush views of our location. Whether you’re a local in search of a river-day end-destination, or a beer-lover looking to experience a special piece of Humboldt, our beer garden is a must-stop  where craft beer and unbeatable atmosphere collide. Order pickup and reservations available.
