October, 2008 - Auburn, California. The street name goes back to the days of the 49ers and the Gold Rush, but the tin man is smiling because now Auburn once again has a brewery. Just down the block is the new (2007) Auburn Alehouse, and it's "a keeper"!
Front of the brewpub, with a reflection of Auburn in the glass.
Old and new. The tin roof and original brick wall, blend nicely with a modern design hanging above the back of the bar. The top row of bottles are growlers from numerous other breweries.
And as I always try to do on my first visit to a brewpub.... A sampler set. Below is a list of their brews.
Notice the "Guest Brew", on the left side of the chalk board - Sierra Nevada Torpedo! I don't know how they still had a keg of that?
Half of the tap handles.
A view through the glass, into the brewery.
A shot of the patio, out in the back.
Then there's the "Wild Women" next door.
And the most famous landmark in town, the court house.
