Portneuf Valley Brewing

Brewery yoga. The sad reality is that mechanical things (like me and brewing equipment) wear out and break. Even when you think you have it all tested and running. Some days it feels like one step forward, two steps back. But after 30 years of doing this I know that perseverance pays off.

As many of you know, I sold the brewery to Tyson Hinz and Khania A Hinz. Tyson is the pizza guru and the plan is for me to train Khania to be the new brew mistress. You can think of the brewery side of the operation as Khania's Kitchen.

I have a 90 day commitment to do brewery training with Khania. I am looking forward to being out of the kitchen cooking on weekends and spending a couple more months playing with the brewing toys before I fade into retirement obscurity. Come New Year's I will be celebrating my new found freedom to chart a course for the third third of my life. If you know me at all, you can only imagine all the things I will be off doing. Lots of things ending in ",,,ing".

Stay tuned for.... the rest of the story.

Alright Pocatello. Come put PVBs future owner to work tonight! 🤩🍺🍻

As we start preparing for PVB’s next chapter, we want the people who have supported us over the years to be part of our future.

This Saturday, our future new owner, Tyson Hinz, will be joining us on the floor, waiting tables, meeting customers, and getting to know the people who make PVB what it is.

If you’ve been coming to PVB for years, we want to hear your stories. What do you love about this place? What do you miss? What should never change? What would you love to see in the future?

There’s a lot more to share soon. 🍺🍕

Come grab some dinner and a b**r, say hello, and give Tyson a hard time while he learns the ropes. Give Penny a hug and let her cook you dinner one last time.

And while you’re here, tell us what you want to see in the next chapter of PVB.

And most importantly… what would make you come hang out at PVB more often?

We’re listening.

See you tonight. 🍺

Want to get Sassy? It is much faster to carbonate soda in a small keg than my 70 gallon tank. So, I racked off a little 5 gallon keg and got that on tap for this weekend and next weekend. JV and I wrestled the 800 pound tank of Sarsaparilla into the walkin cooler yesterday. It will take a couple of weeks to get that fully carbonated. I see root b**r floats in PVBs future!

Meanwhile. Join us for dinner tonight. I have lots of fresh lasagna and Spanish Paella made. Scrumptious specials you won't want to miss
Open 4-8pm

Try our Crayfish Etouffee for dinner tonight!
This is a delicious Cajun dish made with celery, onions and peppers sautéed in a rich butter roux, then simmered with tomatoes and Cajun seasonings. The crayfish were caught in local streams, cleaned and boiled with Cajun seasonings. Shelled and frozen to add to this delicious dish just for you. Served over rice with your choice of soup or salad. This special won't last long and when it's gone.
Dinner served 4-8pm tonight.
Happy hour b**r specials 4-6pm!
