Lake Tahoe AleWorX notes they’re all about “pizza, beer, salad, and scenery,” and that definitely holds true.

Established in 1992, the Brewery At Lake Tahoe is the area’s original brewpub, located in a red brick building in the center of town. You’ll love the handcrafted specialty ales and wide-selection of seasonal brews. We recommend the Paramount Porter, which features a delicious chocolatey malt flavor. If you’re feeling hungry, their Michelangelo pizzas (made with their iconic Bad Ass® Ale pizza dough) are a favorite among locals. Plus, they sell a great selection of shirts, hats, and koozies that make the perfect keepsake from your Lake Tahoe vacation.
