No doubt about it, the proof is in our pints…and why our modest brew house is now a reputable port-o-call. It’s where people go to experience Ventura’s commercial craft-brew industry.

So come with friends. With family. Your dog. Or on your own. While beer tasting in Ventura, kick back and find yourself both at home and at ease. At Poseidon Brewing Co., you’re part of our crew!

Label for Zoey's Zwickelbier

Zoey's Zwickelbier

Kellerbier / Zwickelbier
|
5.5%
Malt forward, balanced, bready/floral >>> Zoey’s Zwickelbier is a hazy German lager that’s cloudy, refreshing and sessionable – and best consumed extremely fresh. It tastes like it’s straight off the tank, which it basically is. In fact, zwickel refers to a port in tanks that allows brewers to taste and test the progress of fermentation. This unfiltered lager is balanced and unpretentious, just like it’s doggy namesake Zoey, and is the perfect choice for a beer or two after work!

A light straw color, Pufferfish is mildly malty with medium hop bitterness that features hints of pine and mint mingling with a sweet, floral, woody, and spicy aroma. This pale lager is refreshing, palate-cleansing, and thirst-quenching. And will have you saying puff…puff…give! Best for: Quenching your thirst for a German-style beer with an American twist!

The malt and fruit characteristics of this brew really shine through on the palate, and clean aromas of honey and peach are also present. Crisp, refreshing, and slightly tart.

|
8.0%
Hop forward, balanced, coconut/pineapple >>> For this experimental tropical IPA, we decided to go all out. We aged it on over 25 pounds of organic toasted coconut. And also added nearly a barrel of unfiltered freshly juiced pineapple. This exotic brew exhibits aromas of toasted coconut, pineapples, mangoes and passion fruit flowers. Each sip starts sweet and finishes with a long finishing hop bitterness. It’s like Hawaii in a pint glass. Kāmau kī`aha!

Rosie's Red IPA

IPA - American
|
6.7%
Malt and hop forward, balanced, stone fruit/citrus >>> Inspired by Poseidon’s brewery dog Rosie, who was both charming (malty) and feisty (hoppy), this Red IPA is the perfect beer for crisp, sunny fall days. For this IPA, we blended maroon-hued crystal malts with Magnum, Chinook, Centennial and Simcoe hops. The balance between its warm hues and malty backbone, loaded with red currant and stone fruit flavors, is coupled with a crisp, citrusy bite from the four hops that fill your pint. No doubt, Rosie’s Red IPA is the ideal beer for both malt and hop heads alike.

Harvest Ale

IPA - American
|
7.6%
Hop forward, balanced, smooth/floral/citrus/grassy >>> If you’ve never had a wet hop ale, you’re in for a treat, because it’s truly a drinking experience like no other. It’s a style only brewed during hop-harvest season as the whole cone hops go from bine to brew within 24 hours of harvest from the field. Often called a Harvest Ale, we brewed the first in our series with Cascade hops from Sow a Heart Farm in Fillmore, CA. We kept the grain bill simple, using only American 2-Row malt, to let the fresh and vibrant floral and citrus flavors and aromas shine through. Velvety smooth, yet distinctively fresh and slightly grassy, this beer is delicate and light in a way only a wet hop ale can be!

Spindrift

IPA - American
|
7.0%
IPA offering a crisp, clean flavor and hop-forward, bitter finish. For this American India Pale Ale, we brewed with one malt – American 2-row barley – and one hop. The shorthand for this style of IPA is a “SMaSH IPA”, or “Single Malt and Single Hop IPA”. Pale yellow in color, this beer showcases crisp, clean malt flavors and approachable hop nuances. This beer is smooth with a clean yet assertive hop bitterness on the finish. Best for: Great for a card night. Great for a golf game. Great all around. Grab your pint today! Hops: Varies Malts: 2-Row

Dirty Diver

IPA - Imperial / Double
|
8.8%
Double India Pale Ale; Hop forward, bitter, tropical fruit/tangerines >>> For this Double IPA, we focused on extracting as much hop flavor as possible without extracting excessive hop bitterness. We used over three pounds per barrel of Columbus, Cascade, Centennial and Mosaic hops. We kept the water profile free of minerals to deceptively decrease bitterness and soften the mouth feel. With hop aromas of mangoes, guavas and tangerines, Dirty Diver is sure to satisfy your craving for hops!

Snorkeling Schwarzbier

Schwarzbier
|
5.0%
German-Style Black Lager; Malt forward, balanced, coffee/toast/caramel >>> We brewed a Schwarzbier, what may be the oldest continuously brewed beer style in the world. It literally means “black beer” in German. Brewed with all German grains and hops, this black lager balances smooth roasted malt flavors with moderate hop bitterness. Each sip will remind you of drinking a pilsner but with notes of coffee and toast, and hints of caramel. We dare you to enjoy a couple and then say Snorkeling Schwarzbier five times fast!

Malt forward, balanced, chocolate/roast >>> Our robust porter is bursting with hearty malt flavors, including hints of toffee, cacao beans, freshly ground coffee and toasted hazelnuts. Crystal hops were used to provide a delicate and mild hop profile. Pokers’ Porter was named for Poseidon Brewing Company’s first “brew dog.” Although no longer with us, he used to frequently be seen guarding our brewhouse. His robust personality inspired us to name a beer in his honor, and we now brew it in memory of him. Just like the real Pokers used to be, this robust porter is full-bodied and jam-packed with personality.

Label for Bullet Holes & Duct Tape

Bullet Holes & Duct Tape

Barleywine - American
|
10.3%
Hop forward, bitter, caramel/resiny >>> All throughout our owner’s naval career, he had these sayings (hundreds of them really!), all collectively referred to as Ollyisms. And one of his most used was “I’m going 100 miles an hour, bullet holes and duct tape.” So it seemed fitting to name this beer, which he’s been wanting to brew since we basically opened, "Bullet Holes and Duct Tape Barleywine" because it's just got a lot going on. This beer is full bodied, hugely malty, assertively bitter, slightly sweet and has a hint alcohol warmth to it as well. You’ll get notes of caramel, toffee and dried fruit on the nose, which carry over to the flavor profile, pair well with the molasses and malt flavors, and round out the strong resiny hop finish on what only can be described as a sippin’ beer.

IPA - Imperial / Double
|
9.5%
Hop forward, balanced, grapefruit/floral >>> This grapefruit-infused Imperial IPA is teaming to the brim with grapefruit, citrus and floral flavors and aromas. To attain the desired flavor profile, we used an insane amount of pink grapefruit zest from our friends at Mud Creek Ranch in Santa Paula, CA. Despite the higher alcohol content, dry hop and zest additions, this brew is balanced and dangerously drinkable. We would like to extend our utmost appreciation to our loyal customers for their support of our brewery. Thank you for pushing us to experiment with producing interesting new beers. This brew is for you!

Malt forward, balanced, bready/floral >>> For our very first Lager beer, we brewed the highly drinkable German-style Helles. We used 2 German malts along with Hallertau hops to bring you Liberty Card Lager. With a touch of malt sweetness that balances the spicy floral German hop flavors and light bitterness, this is a beer for beer lovers. And take note, you’ll want to make sure you have your liberty card in hand because you can’t drink just one, especially on a hot day!

Taproom FAQs

Poseidon Brewing has made multiple “pivots” to ensure its crew and customers feel both safe and comfortable. While we won’t police every customer or situation, we adhere to local, state and federal health and safety policies around mask wearing, social distancing, hygiene and respect.

Yep—in some cases, we do! On Military Night Thursday, we offer a 10% discount for those in the military as well as those who have served for 20+ years and are now retired. Proof of military ID required! Here’s a link to the ID we’ll be checking. Also, to all those in the beer industry, we offer a 15% discount on Tuesday nights with proof of ID in the form of a current paystub or schedule to verify you’re legit. And we give a 10% discount anytime to American Homebrewers Association members. Bring your membership ID card to get that 10% off! And from 8-10 p.m. on Saturdays, we have a reverse happy hour with $1.50 off pints and tulips of your favorite Poseidon beer.

We are a dog-friendly tasting room as long as your dog is friendly. Please follow these “Tasting Room Dog Etiquette Rules”: Dogs must be kept on a leash and within reach of their owner at all times. Avoid the “Three Bs”: Begging, Barking, and Biting. Please don’t allow your dog, even if it’s a small one, on our chairs, couches, tables, or the bar.

Depends on the day. Check out our Calendar of Events to see the food truck schedule. Keep in mind, you’re also welcome to bring your own food and enjoy that snack or meal as well.

​We happily sell and fill Poseidon Brewing Co. growlers. We also fill generic clean ones in legally approved sizes (32 and/or 64 ounces) only. If you bring in another brewery’s growler, respectfully cover identifying artwork with shrink wrap, painter’s tape, or another material, so your growler looks, well, truly generic. Curious about the California Craft Brewing Association’s growler filling guidelines? Click here.

Also, please make sure your growler is clean when you bring it in for a fill. While we’ll give it a quick wash and sanitize before refilling it, we are not able to clean and fill those that have become super funky, i.e. growing 3-dimensional mold inside.
