Snoqualmie Falls Brewing, Snoqualmie WA

29 July 2026

Snoqualmie is clearly a tourist destination in the high regions east of Seattle, right off of I-9o. Traffic getting to the brewery was crazy and parking was worse, but after walking a few blocks once I found a spot to park, here I was. I was dismayed to find that the indoor bar was closed and only the outdoor bar was open, and then you had to order at the bar and go sit at a picnic table. This is the view from my table … a bit of water, some flowers, a lot of weeds, and a construction area.

I only had one beer here, a Kölsch, and it was decent enough. I wouldn’t buy more to take home, though.

This was their special of the day, a bratwurst with sauerkraut and mustard. It was good although I found the brat very dry, much drier than I would expect (but so was the one I’d had a couple of days earlier so maybe it’s a regional thing).

I did take a crowler of a hazy IPA with me for the evening, and it was OK but not interesting enough to bother remembering the details to include here. On the whole, Snoqualmie Falls Brewing is an OK spot in a tourist trap town and not worth the time or effort to visit.
