Badass Backyard Brewing in Spokane Valley, Washington, is the brainchild of Charlene Honcik, who turned a modest backyard experiment into a full‑blown small‑batch operation. The place churns out a fresh lineup every week, having logged over 122 recipes in 2018 alone – a staggering amount that would make a pretentious beer snob blush. The taproom is a lively workshop for locals, swapping trivia banter for a pint and hosting Bingo nights that feel less like a competition and more like a community circus.
The venue has been spruced up (a backroom remodel, coffee service, and even a hard‑seltzer line), so the experience never feels stale. Open Tuesday to Friday from 2 pm–8 pm and Saturday from noon, it draws a diverse crowd: lady brewers who keep the atmosphere light, partnerships with nearby food producers, and a genuine LGBTQ+‑friendly vibe. Whether you’re after a hop‑forward IPA, a malty amber, or something completely off‑the‑wall, Badass delivers quality with a wink, proving that passion and precision can coexist without a whiff of self‑importance.
Reviewers praise Badass Backyard Brewing for its unique atmosphere, welcoming service, and exceptional beers, particularly in the stouts and IPAs, as well as its LGBTQ+ friendly environment and events like art-making and Halloween parties.
