Choose Optimism
Welcome to Optimism Brewing Company
We Put Our Guests First
Our official beer house rules, made with guests in mind.
-
Kids are always welcome at Optimism! We have dedicated tables for families at the back east-side of the brewery by our Kids Play Area and a separate seating area with bar-height tables on the west side, so child-free guests can have their own space as well.
-
We love dogs, and dogs love our heated concrete floors! Furry friends are always welcome at the brewery as long as they remain on leashes and in control of their owners at all times.
If you bring your furry friend on your next visit, tag us to share the cuteness! They might just get featured!
-
Optimism is a tip-free establishment. We believe employee wages should be the responsibility of the business, not our customers.
LEARN MORE ABOUT WHY WE ARE TIP-FREE โ
All of our prices are shown with tax included so that what you see is what you pay. We donโt hide behind hidden fees or gratuities.
-
Food trucks canโt sell beer and taprooms donโt sell food, which is why we parter with local, family-owned food trucks. Check out our Food Truck Schedule to see whatโs on the menu! You are also welcome to bring in your own food from another local restaurant or from home. But no outside alcohol please!
-
Individual stalls for everyone are more private and comfortable, and itโs easier for parents to accompany their opposite gender kids to the restroom when genders arenโt segregated. No one can discriminate as to whether someone is using the โcorrectโ bathroom. Unisex is just safer.
Good Beer for a Good Cause
Optimism drives everything we do from how we work and engage with our customers to how we treat our employees and give back to the community. We promote optimism and celebrate optimists through our commitment to donating 18.5% of our profits and 2% of our income to charitable causes each year. Our 2021 social impact statistics are below.
Host Your Event at Optimism
Our 16,000 square foot brewery can accommodate events and celebrations of any kind and any size! We host events for up to 700 guests and offer a variety of spaces, setup services, and pricing models. You wonโt find space like this anywhere else in Capitol Hill.
We Canned a Mindset
The good vibes donโt have to stop when you leave the brewery. Bring a little positivity with you wherever you go with Optimism To-Go Cans. Order online or next time youโre at the brewery. Not only can you buy happiness, you can also get it delivered!
