Brewery Profile

Ounces Taproom & Beer Garden

In West Seattle’s Youngstown neighborhood, near the West Seattle Bridge, visitors find a taproom and beer garden built around Washington-made drinks rather than a single in-house lineup. The bar runs 30 taps, with beers, ciders, and wines sourced exclusively from within the state. That gives the room a role as a local survey point: a place to sample across Washington producers without needing to cross town or plan several brewery stops. The setting combines indoor seating with outdoor space, and the atmosphere is set up to be casual rather than formal. All ages are allowed, and pets are accommodated, which makes it a flexible stop for groups whose needs do not always match a traditional bar.

Travelers coming through the Seattle area often seek out regional craft beer, especially because Washington is closely associated with hop growing, independent brewing, and a broad cider scene. Ounces fits that kind of visit by keeping the focus on local sourcing across multiple drink categories. A guest might use it as an introduction to Washington beer, a low-pressure stop before or after other West Seattle plans, or a place to compare what is being poured from different producers on the same visit. Since the tap list changes by nature of the format, the taproom itself is the place to confirm the day’s pours. The inclusion of cider and wine also helps groups where not everyone wants beer, while still keeping the list tied to Washington.

For food, the taproom partners with Burbs Smash Burgers, with a menu that includes burgers, sandwiches, and fries. Visitors may also bring their own food, which is useful for families, mixed groups, or anyone pairing the stop with takeout from elsewhere in the neighborhood. Hours are primarily in the afternoons and evenings from Tuesday through Sunday, so checking the current schedule before going is sensible, especially around holidays or private events. Nearby parking options are available, though the exact choice may depend on the day and time. The space can be reserved for private events, reflecting its use as more than a standard drop-in bar. For most visitors, the practical appeal is straightforward: local Washington taps, indoor and outdoor seating, food flexibility, and a West Seattle location that is easy to fold into a wider neighborhood visit.
