Sierra Nevada Torpedo Room - Berkeley

I asked employee about Chaos Reigns Hazy IPA and she says it 's a hazy ipa . Really? Wow! Thanks!! Can you expand on that? She couldn 't. Beer hear is without question great. Service? Lacking.

It was that moment where my husband said, I wished there was a brewery nearby, and I said, I wished there was a restroom open. Thank goodness for checking my Yelp app! It directed me to Sierra Nevada which we didn 't even know was here! If you go a little further down 4th Street, past Spengers and go pass the overpass, there 's some newer apartments and you 'll find Sierra Nevada across the street from Catahoula Coffee and Rims Goggles, kitty corner to the Takara Sake. Nice wood decor, creative use of using the kegs for lighting, love the chalk art on the wall! Things to know: Indoor seating available Small outdoor patio seating Gender neutral restrooms Order at the bar, they 'll pour your beer, open your tab and find a seat. If you would like food, order at the bar and they will bring it out to you. The space is small enough so they know who you are and will find you. Walking distance to shopping area You can either park in front (metered) or go a block down for off street parking. Be mindful if there 's a time limit. Also, we noticed that cars don 't tend to stop at stop signs in that area, so be careful. Have fun and drink responsibly!

3 stars a few years back but recently they are 5 stars so now, they're 4!...4 years ago I wrote this: Chill but odd place. There's music playing in the background. You can have conversations here. Doesn't have the vibe of open friendliness regarding crowd, atmosphere service. Service used to be much better. I'd go here again if I was craving beer, in the area, wasn't busy inside, someone really wants to go here maybe when there's a genuine warmth from servers.

You have a lot of great choices for taps and brews in Berkeley. The Sierra Nevada Torpedo room sets itself apart from the rest as a special places to find super fresh brews you can't find in stores. No expense spared on the architecture!

This is a few blocks from the main drag on fourth street but worth the walk. They have a good selection of Sierra's beers and some non-alcoholic options as well. The environment is full of cool little nods to the brewing process with kegs and funnels as light fixtures. Their creative team did an amazing job designing the space. The fridge is stocked with take away including six packs for $11. The Big Little Thing IPA at 9% ABV is an absolute steal. The manager remembered my name after I went in twice in a row and the bartenders are nice with a lot of knowledge about their selection. My only gripe is that the board doesn't show the prices with tax, which is kind of weird. Not a big deal but worth keeping in mind if you're paying with cash so you remember to take care of your bartender.
