Nickel Brewing Company is a popular spot for the residents of Julian and tourists to stop for a cool beer and get together with friends. The brewery and the tap room are located in a modest wooden green building with a large patio, with the magnificent background of green foothills and orchards in bloom. At the moment they offer 16 beers on tap, ranging from a light, straw-colored beer made in the style of a cream ale to the Jalapeno Gold, with a lot of chopped jalapeno soaking in the keg. Inside, the tap room has the long bar with stools and a window that opens to the brewing area. The popular outdoor deck is great on warm days and is dog-friendly. There is often live music by local bands.
