Dust Bowl Brewing Co. Livermore Taproom

"I've visited the Turlock location several times and was eager to try the new concept at this location. The quirky setup isn't ideal for families, being first come first serve, which can be confusing. The staff remained friendly, and the food was generally good. The family-size pulled pork nachos and wings both scored an 8/10, with the wings having a great smoke flavor. However, the buffalo sauce was overly salty and acidic. The BBQ Chicken pizza fell short of CPK quality (forgot photo), with only four small pieces of chicken, lacking BBQ sauce. Overall, it's a great spot for hanging out with friends, enjoying finger food, and I'd rate it over 8/10."

"It's a well appointed tap room. Lots of indoor seating and eventually a whole bunch of outdoor as well. Employees are always great and the beer selection is huge! I didn't try the food, but what I saw looked pretty good."

"Dust Bowl Brewing in Livermore has all the criteria for a great date spot. If you haven't been to the Turlock and Elk Grove breweries, then you'll be impressed with the indoor and outdoor space. There are couches, table seating, rail bars, covered patio vignettes and communal seating with fire pits and cornhole games. To me, it felt like an impersonal space lacking in character. This Dust Bowl site felt more industrial, than your home away from home. Yes, they still have the 30 great beers and seltzers on tap. The strawberry margarita Seltzer is fantastic and should be a permanent fixture on the tap list. For a date, grab a beer and get cozy on the couch to get to know each other better. Or take your beer outside and have a friendly game of cornhole. IG: SACRAMENTOHONEY"

"Dust Bowl is a great new brewery to hang out with friends, colleagues and family. They have a fabulous outdoor patio with fans to circulate the air, shade and lights for the evening. The inside is roomy with booths as well as sitting area with comfy chairs. They have a permanent food truck serving all of your favorite BBQ items, appetizers and salads. It's so good. They make it easy as you can order from your table and they deliver your food when it is ready."

"If you like beer this is the place for ya. It's a great place to have larger parties too. There's ample seating inside and out. Hazy BBQ truck is on site and has a ton of options. The service was excellent and she was very attentive and helpful with setting me up with several good choices. If you're like me and are just getting into beer you can have different pours 4, 8 and 16. Will definitely return to try more beers and BBQ."
