Review & FAQ:
Payette Brewing Company was established in 2010 by former engineer Mike Francis, who began his brewing career working at Seattle’s Schooner Exact Brewing. The brewing company’s name is an homage to French Canadian trapper and explorer François Payette, whose legend throughout the Idaho community has become synonymous with the state’s adventurous spirit and rugged outdoorsiness. Its all-ages taproom welcomes well-behaved pets and highlights rotating food truck pop-ups. Year-round and seasonal brews available on tap include tart, light, pale, hoppy, and dark beer offerings, including its Guava and Hibiscus Sour, Pioneer Pathway Lager, Rustler IPA, Rodeo Pale Ale, and Pistolero Porter. Free brewery tours are offered on Saturdays, and periodic Kegs 4 Kause events benefit local charities.
