Bear Republic Brewing Company, located in scenic downtown Healdsburg, CA, and just a few miles from the Russian River, brews and pours their famed Racer 5 IPA and Red Rocket Ale along with seasonal brews from Brewmaster and COO Richard “Ricardo” Norgrove. Open since 1996, the brewpub, which has a sister brewing and production facility in nearby Cloverdale, serves a full bar menu with brew-infused items like the Peter Brown BBQ Pork served on a Racer 5 beer bun, and their Friday feature, the Racer 5 IPA beer-battered Fish & Chips. Try their Bear Republic staples, current experimental taps like the 6.6% Endeavor English IPA, or the Crazy Ivan, a 7.3% Belgian-American IPA with a spicy clove and pepper character.
