Great spot to stop in for a flight. Dropped just before 4pm and by 4:20 the room was packed. Tasted 4 IPAs and feel the standout brew was the Hoppy Accident with the additional terps.
This is a very vibrant atmosphere with lots of folks chatting; seems that most people showing up here are intent to converse. They’ve got one television showing sports above the bar but that’s it; nice to have a place not focused on sports, but instead companionship and conversation.

Mother Earth Brewing in downtown Boise is a great find — relaxed, lively, and full of local charm. We discovered it while searching for the best breweries in Boise and were glad we did. The spacious outdoor patio offers plenty of seating and a welcoming vibe, perfect for enjoying a beer or even fantastic pizza from the on-site food truck, which looked (and smelled) fantastic — several people nearby were enjoying their slices. Inside, there’s ample room, a big bar, and a large TV for catching a game. The atmosphere is laid-back and friendly, including friendly dogs. Chatting with a few locals confirmed what we suspected: this spot is a Boise favorite for good reason!

We bought two 4-taster trays to really get a sampling of their beers. All of them were fermented clean with no off flavors, but the double IPA and the hazy ipa were over the top bitter. I know these beers are supposed to showcase hop character, but the bitterness was way too high with minimal supporting malt character.
However, their Oktoberfest was perfectly executed and very good! Their Quit Stalin is a nice rich thick stout that I enjoyed.
The star of the night was their BBA Imperial Brown Ale. The bourbon barrel notes perfectly complemented the restrained use of coconut, coffee, and chocolate, with none of them being dominant. What a great balance!

Went here on a Sunday night and really loved the space. Excellent selection and really great quality beers. There was a seasonal Pumpkin Beer that they were know for that was fantastic, would definitely get the Cali Screaming Pumpkin/Vanilla ale if you are there during Aug-Oct

What a fun atmosphere for a few beers with your friends or family. A great amount of indoor and outdoor seating. Our server was very friendly and welcoming. I would definitely come back here again. They also have a great selection of shirts and hats and growler bottles to purchase. Two thumbs up.

Absolutely loved this spot! I was able to bring my dogs inside because it was a little chilly to sit out in their beautiful patio. They had a yummy food truck. Beer was delicious, bartender was nice, and got some merch!! Highly recommend especially if you’re traveling with a pup!

The atmosphere is really nice in a 2010s kind of way for bars, and they play emo and post punk that’s not too loud which is nice. The bartenders are friendly and their beers are some of the best I’ve had so far in Boise. I think their light beer selection is their strongest and their IPAs are pretty good too, just watch out for the Imperial Russian Stout which tastes like drinking marmite, unless you’re into that.
