four peaks brewing company

noisy, fun, delicious, and excellent.. i chose to have part of my bachelor party here and i do not regret that choice at all. the food was fresh, the atmosphere appropriately loud and thebeerdelicious. i enjoyed the oatmeal stout with my burger. all my guys enjoyed their food and beer. this place definitely has male customers in mind with most of the wait staff being under 25 and female. the brewery vats are in the back and visible to the restaurant. the food was portioned well and i didn't leave hungry. overall an excellent place for a bachelor party. my only complaint is that the tempe brewery has no parking for it's customers. you have to find a spot to park in the adjacent neighborhood and plan to walk to get in.

great brew pub in tempe. four peaks one of the few independent brew pubs left in the valley. they're located just outside of the main tempe university district in an old and only slightly renovated warehouse. there is ample seating inside & on the patio as well as at the large bar. although sitting at the bar has more of a sports bar feel than the comfortable "cheer's" feeling. the bartenders are typically too busy trying to keep up pouringbeerto engage in conversation and a glass can go dry all too easily. but, the atmosphere is fun, open & relaxed. while the place is almost always busy, and particularly crowded on weekend nights (starting thursdays), it never becomes unpleasantly loud. the food is great by bar standards and there are always very appetizing lunch and dinner specials as well as special holiday menus (very pleasant valentine's day & father's day meals for example).

four peaks is not only a tempe favorite but certainly worth a drive across town for true brew pub fans.

…now in eager anticipation of going back today for a glass of the hopsquatch barley wine which is only offered the 1st of every month.

four peaks is the godfather of arizona craft brewing and their restaurant doesn't let theirbeerreputation down. the dining area is incorporated into the brewhouse and most of the dishes have some type ofbeerincluded in the ingredients. this is a really nice touch.

zomato seems to have an older menu posted, which doesn't include the two appetizers i tried. the arancini, was lightly fried and delicious and the brussel sprouts with panceta and miso reduction were perfectly cooked and tasty, just a bit on the oily side though.

for the main course i had the blackened salmon blt and i absolutely loved it. it was a great combination and had a nice smokey flavor in each bite. i paired it with the hop knot ipa which is among my favorite ipas.

we finished the meal by sharing a dessert that was sliced ice cream with a combination of cherry chunk and cookie dough crusted with stout infused oreo crumble - very nice!

i'll keep coming back, four peaks really gets it right.

great food andbeerand the service is consistently excellent. love the energy level as it does get loud. although i wouldent call it kid friendly, they do have a childrens menu and we have always had a great time together.

bestbeerin arizona by far. kind of stinks that anheuser busch bought them out. excited for the distribution to potentially expand but worried that the filtration process in the hefeweizen will be different. time will tell.

i would say that my absolute favorite place to go to before an asu game is four peaks brewery. i’ve been coming here since my college days at asu. four peaks brews their ownbeerand also has amazing food. their kilt lifter scottish ale is their flagshipbeerand one of my personal favorites. i took my brother and my nephew here before the asu/utah game in which asu won 37-7. we got some wings andbeerbattered fries and had a fun time.

top notch!. what can i add that hasn't been said in the previous 1200 reviews? our first experience with four peaks was a taste of theirbeerat a bar and grill in payson. what drew us to the eatery was the yelp ranking, which is spot on. it's located in a nasty commercial part of tempe. the only parking is on the street. that aside, everything here is excellent: ambiance, brews, food, and service. esposa had fried mahi sandwich, my brother burger, and i mac 'n cheese. all were stellar. esposa had hefeweizen, bro and i the irish red (seasonal). server was knowledgeable and friendly. overall: excellent. highly recommended.

good food, good beer, good time. staying with friends in phoenix. our hosts had four peaks kilt lifterbeeron hand. good beer. they suggested we go to four peaks for dinner one night as they also liked their food. off we went.

good looking place. the menu has a nice selection of upscale bar food. i had the southwest burger with thebeersampler platter. the kilt lifter was my favorite of their brews. though i finally found an ipa i liked in their raj ipa. the burger was very good. my one criticism was that all thebeerin the sampler could have been colder. our friend also had the sampler and had the same issue. it was ok anyway, everyone enjoyed their meals and we all had a good time. very relaxed, fun atmosphere. good service.

i guess another drawback is that we don't have a four peaks in atlanta.

first up i hit local favourite four peaks , makers of the state’s favourite craftbeerkiltlifter, a 6% scottish-style ale. owner and head brewmaster andy ingram told me about their special strain of yeast that throws a distinct note of apricot into their brews – a guiding influence for the creation of their popular peach ale as those fruits complement each other perfectly. for those of you in arizona, head down to their brewery in tempe soon as they are about to open a batch of bourbon-barrel aged kiltlifter, only to be served on site. andy took me on a tour through the brewery, where i learnt about their brewing process, that they are moving to cans from bottles gradually as cans are more economic and ensure thebeergets to the consumer in pristine condition. bottles, as they are made from glass, allow uv to pass through which degrades the

best stop before an asu football game. it's a tradition of mine to come here before an asu game - there's always a fun crowd. four peaks operates out of an old creamery building. greatbeerand great food! the kilt lifter is a popular choice. four peaks has been serving the tempe community for years!

not worth waiting. mediocre at best food,beerjust ok.

this place is right next to my house and i was hoping it would become my regular spot to unwind since im new to the area and like to drink good beer. thebeerwas awesome i must say but the vibe was far from inviting. my bartender; she was very stuck up and seemed like she judged me as soon as i sat down. i had to literally throw my iphone at her to order morebeerlol but with the other patrons around me she was super friendly and showering them with attention and asking if they needed anything. the few regulars that i met seemed very cliquey and territorial and didn't make me feel welcomed either. i'm all about being able to go to a bar and put my feet up and drink my stresses away and feel relaxed. unfortunately it will not be at four peaks. but they probably don't care since they are so busy.

great sunday afternoon lunch!. had lunch there today after a six hour drive from california. hop knot is first class ipa! food was great! had the huevos adovada, phenomenal! wife had the popper burger onbeerbread. service was friendly and quick, they were not too busy at the time. will go back whenever in the area!

greatbeerand great food!. went for a late lunch.beerwas great and food was almost better. place was a little warm, with no a/c and it was july, but greatbeercooled us right off.

mehhhh. typical bar food just slightly better. this is not a place to order wine and i hatebeerso maybe i shouldn't be writing a review.

love the open atmosphere. it's a brewery, with food. not a new concept, but it pulls it off fairly well. i had the salmon b.l.t. with fries. though the salmon was a little over seasoned, the sandwich was still enjoyable. i don't think i would have enjoyed it without the beer. the bitterness of thebeerwas a good cleanser in between bites. i had the 8th st pale ale and really liked it. the fries are definitely a+.

i liked how open and casual the place was, although that did kind of lead to my server getting a bit preoccupied by the table next to me. but hey, it is essentially more of a hang out than a restaurant so things like that should be expected. my experience was good overall. i'll likely be back to try some of their other brew choices.
