Go from pancakes to pilsners in South Lake Tahoe, where the brewery scene sizzles and pubs and eateries serve up tasty fare.
Lake Tahoe woos visitors during winter for ski season, but its deep blue waters are equally popular with spring and summer frolickers. The serene lake, the towering evergreens and shaded hiking trails — there are plenty of reasons to jet off to South Lake Tahoe. Whether you’re looking to hit the trails or splash on shore, you’ll likely need a meal and a post-hike brew to refuel between adventures.
Then hit the trails and enjoy the summery outdoor scene. When you’re ready, we’ll be waiting with some craft beer destination suggestions and — oh hello, here you are! Taste your way through the South Lake Brewing Co. lineup with 2-ounce tasters served atop a snow ski. ‘s “shot ski” style serves — no, no, not the high-alcohol, quick-consumption shots you find at some bars. The brewery uses skis for its beer tasting flights. Most people opt for the five-taste option which uses a pint-sized ski to serve two-ounce pours of five brews on tap. If you’ve brought a group and want to taste the entire line-up, there’s a 16 taster, full-ski option.
If I had to pick just one of their brews to drink all day, the Explorer Cream Ale comes top of mind. It’s described as a California Cream Ale, but the style is largely European and offers a milky mouthfeel with a touch of vanilla. The Front Porch Pilsner is a great pick too, an easy drinker that’s light on the palate. There’s a large line-up of IPAs and even a double IPA, but as a small-batch brewery, everything is on seasonal rotation and kegs occasionally run out.
