I have been to the Wallace Brewery two times. Both times I was essentially the only person there and was treated to what amounted to a private personal beer tasting with the bar keep. It was a great experience. All of the beers are really tasty and well crafted. Each one is unique. It is a great place to stop if you are traveling through North Idaho on I90.
Review Source:Very impressed with this tasting room in the middle of a historic town. Was heading on a trip to Idaho and searching for things to do in the area, luckily came across this website which was nicely done and intrigued me with its mention of a huckleberry beer. Made the trek to the location and found it to be much larger than imagined. Complete with pool tables and a dart board, chess games, tv and very friendly staff. Did the taster and tried all the beers, very helpful beer man explained each of them to us one by one. While many of them did not sound very exciting up front they did have some tastes I am not used to encountering in my everyday beer drinking. I was excited to hear that they had recently started bottling and that one day I may be able to locate their beer in a store near me. Definetely worth a stop off if you enjoy beer and are in the area, my only complaint is a lack of food and no Sunday hours (but I guess everyone needs a day off).
Review Source:Came over Lookout Pass, heading West, hit a patch of ice in the shadows on what appeared to be bone-dry pavement. Â Car went this way and that and after I straightened her up went by 5 cars and trucks on the shoulder who did not fare as well as The Baron. Â Everyone was outside of their cars/trucks and were just standing there, apparently waiting for help/tow-trucks. Â Not a good idea, as that's exactly were my final resting place would have been had I not regained control.
Was does this have to do with the Wallace Brewery, you ask? Â A pint of Wallace is exactly what you need, if you find yourself in a similar situation, to calm yourself down after almost meeting your maker. Â Thanks, Wallace Brewery, I needed that pint!
Even if you didn't experience a near catastrophic even, the WB is a great place just to take a break from your I-90 cross country excursion.
