Overview

Reuben's Brews is a family-owned craft brewery that opened in Ballard, Seattle in 2012, following Adam Robbings' award-winning homebrewing career, and was named after the founders' first child, Reuben. The brewery describes itself as brewing 'from the glass backwards,' designing each beer with intention. It operates three locations: a Downtown Seattle taproom near Pike Place Market with 28 taps of beer, cider, and seltzer plus non-alcoholic beverages and American pub fare; a Ballard Taproom opened in 2015 featuring a 15-barrel brewhouse; and a Production Brewery with a 30-barrel brewhouse where most canned, kegged, and bottled beers are brewed, also home to The Canning Line private event space. Its range spans everyday favorite beers, seasonal offerings, innovative new releases, and non-alcoholic brews.

History

Reuben's Brews opened in Ballard, Seattle in 2012, after Adam Robbings' award-winning homebrewing career, and was named after the founders' first child, Reuben. The Ballard Taproom opened in 2015 and features a 15-barrel brewhouse in the middle of the space, where smaller batches of beer are brewed. The company also operates a Downtown Seattle taproom steps from Pike Place Market and a Production Brewery with a 30-barrel brewhouse where the majority of canned, kegged, and bottled beers are brewed; that site is also home to The Canning Line, one of its two private event spaces.
