Brewery Profile

Knee Deep Brewing Company

In Auburn’s beer scene, this is a production brewery with a public-facing taproom rather than only a packaged-beer label on a shelf. Knee Deep Brewing Company began production in 2010 and operates as a family-owned microbrewery in Placer County, giving visitors a local point of contact with beer made under the same company name. Walking in, the main known visitor experience is the onsite taproom, where beer is available for direct purchase and consumption. The setting is useful for people who want to taste at the source, compare what is currently pouring, and get a clearer sense of the brewery than they would from distribution alone.

Travelers passing through this part of California often look for stops that connect them to regional producers, especially places where the tap list may show more than the beers they have already seen in stores or bars. A visit here fits that pattern because the brewery’s distribution is primarily regional, while some of its products have become more widely recognized in craft beer circles. That combination makes the taproom relevant both to visitors who already know the name and to those simply trying to understand Auburn’s local beer options. Without relying on a particular flagship or style, the draw is the chance to sample what the brewery is presenting that day.

For planning purposes, treat the taproom as the reliable source for current details. Specific beer names, food availability, tour access, events, seating arrangements, and hours are not established here, so visitors should confirm those directly before making a special trip. What is known is that the facility maintains an onsite taproom for direct sales and on-premise drinking, making it the practical place to check the day’s pours and any visitor rules. For anyone building an Auburn or Placer County itinerary around local craft beer, Knee Deep Brewing Company is best understood as a regional microbrewery stop with an operating taproom, not just a distributed brand.
