We play hard in the great outdoors here in Redding, but we know how to unwind too. Nothing says relaxing like a chilled lager fresh from the tap, or a specialty cocktail served by a friendly face. Our local breweries are veritable institutions, pumping out all sorts of original ales and stouts. Beyond beer, our bars and lounges downtown have all the wine and cocktails that anyone could need, making sure everyone can relax and unwind in their own way, maybe even with a little live music. The fun doesn’t end in Redding when the sun bids adieu!

Straight from the Tap

In and around Downtown Redding, locals have turned their passion for homebrewing into a vibrant craft beer scene. Ale House Pub is the oldest brew pub in Redding. Cedar Crest Brewing celebrates local flavors flowing into their growlers. Fall River Taphouse is as fresh as it gets, with a beer-only menu right from the source. You can enjoy a drink from Mt Shasta Brewing Company, set in an old creamery, or order a pint pulled from one of the 24 taps at Final Draft Brewing Company. Enjoy some nibbles alongside the ales at Woody’s Brewing Company, an award-winning, family-run business that showcases the true spirit of Redding.
