Moab Brewery

Moab Brewery is the original craft brewery in Moab, Utah, and one of the most visited dining destinations in the canyon country of the American Southwest. Located on Main Street in the heart of Moab, it operates as both a working brewery and a full-service restaurant, and its covered patio has become the definitive post-adventure gathering spot for hikers, mountain bikers, river runners, and climbers returning from Arches National Park, Canyonlands, or the trails of the La Sal Mountains. The brewery produces more than ten house beers on tap at any given time, rotating seasonally. The Dead Horse Amber Ale — named for the famous Canyonlands overlook — is the flagship: malt-forward and balanced, pairing naturally with the pub menu. A Scorpion Pale Ale and rotating IPA round out the hoppy side, while seasonal wheat beers and a stout serve the full-spectrum drinker. Food covers well-executed brewpub territory: the Dead Horse Amber Ale fish and chips, the Backbone Burger with house-ground beef, and the Canyon Country Nachos have earned loyal followings among the guide community and regular visitors. Utah's alcohol regulations apply, but the brewery navigates them competently, with full-strength brews available for on-premises consumption. The partially shaded patio fills on spring and fall weekends within thirty minutes of opening, and dinner waits on busy summer Saturdays can approach forty-five minutes. No reservations are accepted; walk-in only. Moab Brewery remains one of the most consistent and democratic dining experiences in the region: suitable for families, solo hikers, and large groups in equal measure, and within easy walking distance of most Moab Main Street lodging.
