No frills beer concept that's common around Livermore. No food except a few snacks behind the counter and food trucks are outside. Event space so there was live music and other activities. Dogs allowed. I didn't really enjoy the beer but that's in the eye of the beholder. Plastic cups for the beer - not my thing, but maybe because there was an event going on. Tasting available.

Decent beers and limited selections for a brewery. Parking was hard to find. Friendly staff and chill environment.

Great variety of beers. Good atmosphere and super friendly staff. Dylan is a great bartender who knows his stuff. Always a food truck available as well. Recommend coming in for a cold one or two.

Fantastic beer with plenty of place to sit and mingle. I was also surprised by how much branded apparel and accessories they had (golf apparel, hats, shorts, sweatshirts, stickers, magnets, etc.)! Definitely a nice place to stop if you're in the neighborhood.

Our favorite brewery. We meet our family members there often. They don't mind if you bring the grandkids now and then. They also usually have a food truck out in front which is nice but they sell snacks, T-shirts, and sweatshirts. And beer ! Lol They seem to have brer that satisfies all of our varied preferences. The employees are always kind and helpful. If you haven't been there, you're missing out ;)

This is a hoppy beer lovers dream of a place. Altamont actually has made enough of name for themselves that I see it regularly at many bars/restaurants out in the east bay. Actually my friends and I are super famililiar and are regular drinkers of 2 of their IPAs, the Maui Waui which has acidic tropical notes and their Hella Hoppy, which is kinda my go-to these days for a night cap...very assertive hop backbone in a well balanced malt profile. And I've probably had over a hundered Altamont beers within the past 8 years or so, BUT I've never gone to their actual spot in the cuts of Livermore. Until recently. It is actually such a beer dudes place that it was almost stereotypical in my short visit there for a quick tasting. Almost all dudes in the bar area, all in shorts and a baseball cap of sorts (probably to mask some pattern balding). Every dude was well over 30, so dad bods galore and all probably well into their careeers, so no bums in here really. I'd say all had at least a goat tee if not a beard and 90% of them had a large dog on a leash by their feet under that bar stool. Never seen anything like it before, like every dog was 30 pounds or heavier, so when the dogs got on their feet, there definitely was a lot of butt/groin sniffing and occasionally a quick growl or bark for a particular dog who didn't want all the attention. Lol But overall I fit in more than I didn't so beer wins. Beer Flight Tasting ($12/5*) First off it is a really great price for a tasting flight. You can pick 5 from at least 20 that's currently on tap. It is actually a bit tedious having to look up at their screen to scroll to see what would fit you. Lots of text and you have to do it standing on the bar counter as the screen is only visible from one corner of the bar. Nice 5-6 oz pours in cool little tasting snifters in a cool stainless steel caddy holder. Just write in your 5 on piece of paper and the flight will be brought to you at your seat. When I go to a brewery where I'm familiar with their beers, I will never order something that I've had many times at another bar/restaurant, no matter how much I like it. I am simply there to learn something new. I always will start with something lighter then move to a medium strength beer like a Pale Ale then always have some higher gravity ones toward the end, like a strong IPA or a dark beer. I didn't love all the beers tasted but I did like enough of them to bring some home. Didn't really like their lighter styles but that's not really a surprise as anytime I get into an Altamont beer it is usually for a good punch. I tried 2 pale ales, with one being much more special, their Green Collar Pale totally fits my palate. In any other era, this would actually be deemed as an IPA but in today's hop crazed beer world, this is considered light. But I'd say more balanced, which tends to fit my preferences. Ended up taking 2 4-packs home for my buds to try and we all enjoyed them thoroughly as they were flavors that we don't see at other places. And their take-away beers are very reasonably priced being around $14-$16, as many places want to charge about $20 for a four pack. Props Altamont love how you're here for the common working dude. Drops extra star!

What can I say about altamont, this is the Cadillac of local breweries,great beer selection,great tasting room,great special events,great merch representing livermore,always a fun visit to altamont.!!!!

Let's start by saying I am not an adventurous beer drinker. I am boring at best but enjoy checking out new places. Was in the area with my sister and we thought it would be a good idea check out Altamont for a beer. Jada served us and was helpful in picking out something I would like. I told her what I normally drink and she picked out the Cerveza Murrieta for me. My sister went with the Barry White. Both beers were refreshing and perfect cold temperature. We enjoyed our time with Jada, excellent customer service. It was a chill atmoshpere, TV's were on, wasn't too busy and not too loud. The tap room was nice and cool, also clean. You could sit at the bar or they had seating options along the rest of the room. Lots of fun merchandise for purchase as well as beer to go in cans or growlers. The do not serve food but have a food truck right outside the door. Can't wait to go back!

Whyyy do you guys hate hazy IPAs?! First time coming here as I was visiting my brother who lives in the area and knows I like trying new breweries anywhere I go. Maybe I'm just a basic conformist, but with how many beers they offer, I thought I would for sure be able to find a hazy I enjoy. However, after reading "MAKE BEER CLEAR AGAIN!" at the end of the description of their "Juice Above the Clouds" IPA, it became clear to me... that my beer would only be clear this time around lol. Not a problem, we adapt! Purchased a 5-beer flight (see attached photos for names). Ended up leaving with a 4-pack of the Shot Away IPA, as it was my favorite of the five. Like most breweries, Altamont is located in an industrial area, in a large building. The staff was friendly and helped out with some NA beverages for the NA drinkers in our group, which they appreciated. I do wish there was outside seating, because it was a beautiful day when we came, but I also know it gets scorching hot there during the summer. I would definitely visit again, and it's very possible this review could change from 4 stars to 5 if they ever offered a hazy! KTHXBYE

Can't believe it had been 7 years since my last visit. What a complete change from that last visit. Came here on the 5th and wanted to see all the changes I was told about by another very loyal customer. I really like what they have done to the place and the expansion. Very very clean with plenty of seating at and away from the bar. Bar is huge which is great and a very good selection of beer. Staff is way beyond friendly. The merch selection is huge and every selection I want to buy. now for the food that was outside. WOW really good. it was a company called Karnitas Tek. food is fresh and great quality. I will NOT wait another 7 years to come back and visit. But I will say since my last visit I have drank a ton of their beer. One of my favorite breweries.
