Idaho Brewing Company Tour

Idaho Brewing Company Tour
Date: Wednesday, February 10, at 6:30 p.m.
Location: Idaho Brewing Company, 775 S. Capital Avenue, Idaho Falls

Join the local ASME section for a tour of the brewing operation at Idaho Brewing Company. Leon will take us behind the curtain for a look at the inner workings of his brewing operation.

After the tour, return to the tasting room to try some of his beers (on your tab) and enjoy some appetizers courtesy of the Idaho section of ASME.

The tour is free and open to anyone that is interested. Children must be supervised by an adult. If a large number of people show up, tours will be conducted in several smaller groups. But don’t worry, they’ll serve you a beer or two while you wait.

Where: Idaho Brewing Company, 775 S. Capital Avenue, Idaho Falls

Where it really is: Although the address says Capital Avenue, the entrance is actually on the NW corner of the intersection of Chamberlain Avenue and Trask Street. Click for Map. The entrance is through a chain link fence adjacent to a long warehouse. Drive in (heading west) past the warehouse building and you will find the tasting room to your right.

When: Wednesday, February 10, at 6:30 p.m.
