Excellent vibes for a date! Went here as the start to a double date and we had a blast playing pool. I had the meadowfoot and it was phenomenal. They had a yummy non-alcoholic kombucha option too which is so appreciated so everyone felt included! Great staff, too!

First time at the new location. Enjoyed the experience so much we came back just a few days later. Excellent selection of tasty beers. The ambiance is extremely similar to the last place. Plenty of comfy chairs. A lightly lit space with a very relaxed vibe. The beer tenders were very friendly and so helpful. A great addition to K street / DOCO. Will certainly look to get back here soon. Excellent stop prior to anything at the Golden One.

It's giving farmhouse speakeasy and I'm into it. They have a new lavender beer, "Penny" that's delicious

Solid spot to grab some beer and hang out around before you continue to venture elsewhere. Dark industrial aesthetic. Head downstairs to see what is on tap. Decent selection. There can be limited seating, expect to stand (surfaces available to place drinks on). Can get packed but we still managed to have some standing room and rest against the bar. Food is not served here but you can bring your own food. In our group of four, only two of us drink beer so we did not stay too long. But I can also imagine it being a chill place to come alone too.

We had an absolute blast at Ruhstaller Beer! The venue is really unique with outdoor seething upstairs and a very cool space inside. There's lots of great beer to choose from. Swing by soon!

Incredible environment off the downtown area that feels like stepping back in time to someone's study. Delicious beer too!

I see the potential. Love the vibe, the legos, and that its on the original level of Sacramento (before it was raised). Sadly, both times I've stopped in they were out of almost all their beers. Kinda bad for a brewery. The beer I got was good, just hope they learn how much to keep on stock so I can have my pick of beers instead of settling for the one or two they have left.

Why sit in traffic? Get off Hwy 80 and enjoy a beautiful break. Good atmosphere, excellent service and they welcome your pet.
Beers are awesome but I'm usually driving so only tasting. The rest of the over 21 passengers love them though... for sure a 5-star because it all goes perfectly together...Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - 50017471363Mar 31, 2019
I am so sad that it has taken me so long to discover Ruhstaller Beer. This place is 100% my type of beer spot. Dimly lit, located in the basement with exposed brick and comfy seating. I was so thrilled to spend a Sunday afternoon with my boyfriend here playing pool. Not to mention the fact that their beer is delicious.
It was a pretty quiet Sunday afternoon, but we enjoyed several rounds of pool (for free!). I thoroughly enjoyed the California Kolsch they had on tap. The prices and the pours were reasonable. Parking can be a hassle because it is located down near the new Golden One arena but we managed to snag a spot over by Cesar Chavez park.
The next time I have friends in town visiting, I cannot wait to bring them here.Helpful 7Thanks 0Love this 8Oh no 0
