If you have been looking for craft beer in Reno that goes beyond the ordinary, your search just got a lot easier. FiftyFifty Brewing Co., the celebrated mountain brewery originally born in Truckee, California, has officially opened its Reno pub right inside Reno Public Market at 299 E. Plumb Lane. Whether you are a longtime fan of their legendary Eclipse Imperial Stout or you are discovering FiftyFifty for the first time, this new addition to the Market is something Reno beer lovers will not want to miss.
Who Is FiftyFifty Brewing Co.?
Founded in the mountains of Truckee, California, FiftyFifty Brewing Co. has built a national reputation for craft beer that punches well above its weight. Beer Advocate has named their beers among the top beers in the world, and the brand has appeared in Esquire Magazine and the book "1001 Beers You Should Taste Before You Die." These are not just accolades on a wall. They reflect the genuine care and craftsmanship that goes into every batch FiftyFifty produces.
The brewery's philosophy is rooted in balance, in life, in business, and of course in beer. They source their own hops, water, and cans. They hand-wax thousands of bottles every year. Every decision, big or small, is made with purpose. That ethos is now being brought to Reno.
Craft Beer at Reno Public Market: What Is on Tap
The FiftyFifty Reno pub brings the full range of the brewery's award-winning lineup to the heart of Reno. Here is a taste of what you can expect.
Eclipse Imperial Stout is FiftyFifty's crown jewel. Eclipse is an annual vintage barrel-aged Imperial Stout aged in premium whiskey barrels sourced from some of the world's top distilleries. Each bottle is hand-waxed and represents nearly a full year of work by the brewing team. This is a collector's beer and a bucket-list pour.
Tahoe Pilz is a Czech-inspired pilsner that is clean, crisp, and refreshing year-round. Coming in at 5.5% ABV, it is the brewery's official beer of summer and an easy go-to any time of year.
Core and Seasonal Brews round out the tap list. Beyond the flagships, FiftyFifty rotates a lineup of core and seasonal beers that reflect the craft and creativity of their brewing team. Expect IPAs, lagers, stouts, and specialty releases throughout the year.
