Ombibulous Brewing Company 1419 Winchester Way, Altoona, WI 54720

"They have a good selection of beer and I really like the atmosphere there. They have shuffleboard, board games and other things to do while enjoying some locally brewed beer. I like that they have a lot of seating options (bar, high tops, low tops) and sometimes have live music! The beers are very affordable Ranging from $3 5oz tasters to $8ish dollars for high ABV options but most land around $6 for a 16 oz which I find reasonable for specialty/locally brewed options. I love that the upstairs is open so even when you’re up there during live music, you can still hear it. A super cool place that I would definitely visit again!"

"We visited as my husband did the Eau Claire Beer Crawl. This place was easy to find. The interior is very open and pleasant, complete with a fireplace that would be wonderful in the winter. The bartender was awesome to chat with as we tried a flight of beers. This was a very enjoyable stop!"

"I love this place. It’s right off of US Highway 12 on the east end of Altoona. The beers are great. They make several hard seltzers as well. Just this summer they added pizzas, made to order. Pizza fries and pretzel sticks are also available. Outdoor seating. Shuffleboard upstairs. A totally chill atmosphere. The brew house is in the taproom."

"Ombibulous is a small brewery in Altoona just outside Eau Claire. It is in a commercial strip building but is really nicely decorated with woods, metal, a fireplace, and nice little patio. They have free shuffleboard on there upper deck with additional seating. They typically have 12 of their beers on tap plus 3 seltzers and various sodas. Beers on my stop were red lager, 2 Mexican lager, Irish Red Ale, 2 NEIPAs, a Wheat, coffee stout, Irish Stout, wet hopped pale ale, and a black ale. I enjoyed all the selections I had. Though none blew my mind I would certainly come back to try more varieties."
