Noble Ale Works

This is a great brewery. Definately at the top of my list right now for this area. I pretty much tried ¾ of the beers they had on tap last night.
I liked all of them. They all had good flavors and they were all balanced well. Nothing too overpowering. You can tell the brewer is very good at what they do. This place gets packed so it looks like the locals know well about this spot. Make sure to give this brewery a try.
Its also opened pretty late. 12am.

Even at this age, I remember that day very clearly. The day I first visited Noble Ale. The only day I did not need to record in my journal that I’ve kept every day for 37 years since I was 73.
It was a summer day in Anaheim. The air was slightly hot with a density that weighed down upon the skin like a warm wool blanket made of air. It would have been uncomfortable save for the fickle, cool breeze, saving you from that slightly depressing heat like your first kiss saved you from yourself. My favorite kind of weather.
I was 104 at the time. At that age your bones start to hurt. A lot. That day was a particularly bad day for my arthritis. But I ignored it. I was happy. I was going to Noble Ale for some beer. I arrived, body aching but spirits unbelievably high. It was everything I imagined it to be. Lakes and lakes of delicious beer as far as the eye can see, LAB and yeasts slowly creating the nectar of the gods. Though I’ve been more than ten times, I cannot remember the names of all the beers I’ve gotten-​they change often, but whenever there is one with «Showers» in the name, you can be sure I’ll be drinking it.
Somehow I always manage to find seats whenever I come. They always seem surprised to see how much beer I can put away in my age. But my stomach is as large as the cosmos is wide. A few minutes later, all the beer I could afford was gone. As was my arthritis. As were my wrinkles. I was 24 again and irresponsibly writing a weird story at work and dreaming about 5pm so I could leave go to Noble Ale.
Far in the background of the Indian Summer, a small child wept quietly.

Naughty Sauce & Cherries Twobilee are a must get if you love: stouts or sours.
Noble Ale Works has a great selection of beers, something for everyone! I absolutely love stouts and sours and enjoyed all that they had to offer (3 stouts and 2 sours when I went in!). For our group of 7, we wanted to try everything so we got two tasters of everything — not sure if this was the $$$ efficient way to go, but definitely the most fun. 13 beers to taste total.
There is a good amount of seating inside, but can get very crowded — especially if there is anything going on at Angel’s Stadium. The line on a Saturday at 4PM was out the door. A very casual place to get some brews with some friends. Also, there’s always a food truck outside to order from and bring in food. A perfect partnership.
Would recommend getting a growler of your favorite beer and coming back to refill them!

Decent size tasting room with plenty of seats. Delicious beers from interesting and fruity IPAs to interesting and complex stouts, red ales and super creamy selections like naughty sauce. One of the must go to breweries in Orange County. The standout beers to definitely try are the «Do you smell what the Waka’s cooking?», «nose candy», and «naughty sauce».
The only problem is that there is no lock on the bathroom and the bathroom is co-​ed.

Thank you noble ale works! We just left the bruery 5 minutes away decided to try something new but come back yo our favorite. We always have an amazing time and great beer. The naughty sauce is the best my hubby liked the soda jerk but they don’t have it hopefully they will bring it back. Great service great beer!

I remembered people’s reviews about how this place was within walking distance to Honda Center so my bf and I parked here and got in some beers before heading to a concert. We got flights so we could taste as many of the different beers as possible, as neither of us had been there before. The one that made the biggest impression on me was the Yoga Pantz, which is their «Naughty Sauce» (I love their beer names, btw) beer with some pumpkin spice – it was quite good! The other beers we tried were good as well; I can’t say there was a bad one in the bunch. The staff here are very friendly and chill, much like the crowd – quite a few who looked like they were going to catch the concert as well. This place will definitely be my go-​to in the future!
STEPH JUDGEMENT: Another great Anaheim brewery, within walking distance to the Big A or the Honda Center.

I finally made the pilgrimage to Orange County in order to try Noble’s Naughty Sauce. For those who don’t already know, Naughty Sauce is a golden milk stout brewed with coffee. While I find that most beers don’t live up to their hype, Naughty Sauce is not one of those beers. Brewed with local Portola coffee, this beer is incredibly unique and tasty. It is worth a visit to the tap room just to try the Sauce.
If you are not a fan of coffee beer, Noble has a wide variety of other beers from which to choose. They are also famous for their IPAs, so make sure to check out a few of those. I really liked Nose Candy, a juicy session IPA that recently won a bronze medal at GABF.
Noble Ale Works is a traditional industrial taproom, so if you like fancy bars, this might not be the place for you. Personally, I love the casual environment. Prices are low, and they allow you to do mix and match sampler flights. They have several TVs, so this is a great place for sports fans to catch a game.
This is one of the best breweries in the area, so be sure to stop by if you are touring breweries in the OC or LA. I hope to be back soon.

Just a wandering traveler passing through. I thought the beer was okay and the atmosphere perfect for those who are into lighter beers and love hockey.
You’re right across from the Honda center and you can walk or drive or easily get to the brewery after the game when the buzzer sounds.
The naughty sauce was a favorite and the yoga pantz were easy conversions for the lovers of PSL.
The beer overall I found to be bright and crisp and not too heavy on the palate; but also very filling. Like you need to drink many to get the flavor sensor in your brain to say Yes I’m satisfied.
It is a very small operation which is cool and I think they will quickly outgrow this location and turn it more into a showcase for their beer rather than an operation center.
I hope they expand their selection to include some darker stuff and their flagship beers can malt a bit longer.

We had to battle a squid and a six fingered man. That in itself is bullshit, but 400 pounds of calamari later I have an IPA that would put hair on a toddlers chest. This place and it’s nights or hops, live up to their name.

Wow, Noble Ale Works is amazing! I mean, the beer is seriously fantastic! I believe this to be one of the best breweries around. That is saying a lot since I live in San Diego County!
The parking lot is large which is very helpful considering they can get pretty busy. The service is good, the employees work fast and are able to answer any questions you have about their offerings. Each and every single beer is high quality and unique. You can find something here no matter what kind of beer you like, no matter how picky you are, or even if you don’t like beer. There is always something different to try so be brave and try some of the weirder sounding things, you will NOT be disappointed. My two favorites during this visit where the Gosebusters and Earl’s Grey Dinghy. Tea beer, awesome! :)

Excellent brewery tucked away inside an industrial/​commercial zone but is actually hopping (no pun intended) on weekends and late nights. There are lots of brews to choose from, and if you’re feeling adventurous, they offer sampler platters. You can spread out across two large rooms overlooking the brewing operations, and there’s a laid-​back, unpretentious atmosphere that’s extremely refreshing and rare to find in the OC. While there isn’t food available on the premises, food trucks often come by, or you can bring your own food.
Overall, a great find that’s not far from Anaheim’s stadiums and theme parks.

By far one of my favorite breweries. We use Noble as a pre-​game of sorts to the various sporting events in the area (so we are here quite a bit). The people are all super friendly, the beer is amazing, and they have different food trucks all the time.
Can’t wait to see how they grow and expand with the new building!

I have been to many breweries. This place was one of the best. The service was fast and with a smile. The beer was perfect. The place was clean and so were the restrooms. The food truck outside was good too.
Naughty Sauce fresh on tap was reason enough to give this place 5s.
But everything and everyone else at Noble sealed the deal.
I will definitely be back.

Very chill brewery with wide selection of different brews to delight your taste buds! I used to frequent Noble Ales when I used to live walking distance to it, which has it perks when you want to walk off your buzz without having to drive haha!
Very friendly beer experts, place is a tad smaller than other places that I’ve experienced but still really enjoyable with friends and always a food truck outside to feed you. Check them out! Try their «yoga pantz» its really amazing!

Friendly staff great beer and cool chill place to drink beer and enjoy ur self came in on a Friday early evening and it was cool I will be back to this place soon. All the beers I had where great.

Let me be perfectly honest and up front from the beginning: I F’ing love the beers they brew here. It’s almost like the brewmaster has exactly the same palate as I do… my identical palate twin? Despite living in South OC, I try and make my way up here whenever I can. There are even times I go when I shouldn’t. Anyway…
In order to make this review worth your while, I’m going to tell you about some of my faves. If it has «showers» in the name, you’re in for a DIPA treat. If they have multiple offerings, here is the order of delicious to downright ridiculously dank: Blanc, Equinox, Nelson, Galaxy then Citra (insert aaaahhh for the latter here). There are two or three more they offer than I haven’t tried yet, so I’ll update the order when I do. Otherwise, follow me on Untappd.
Tongue Tickles (appropriately named) is also a must try.
I also like their Naughty Sauce, and the funny thing is I’m not a stout fan.
They have good pilsners, session IPA’s, etc., but it’s the DIPA’s that keep bringing me back.
Besides the beer (as if that isn’t enough), they have a great staff. As a beer aficionado, I’ve been to several micro breweries and these guys and gals (especially the cute short haired gal I see on occasion — bummed she’s not pictured in here yet) are consummate professionals. It probably doesn’t hurt to know a thing or two about beers before ordering, but they seem like they would be great nonetheless.
I can describe other things but as long as my review is already, I’m seriously wondering why you’re still reading this and not racing over to this place. Seriously.
The last thing I’ll leave you here is a tip: bring chips. They have good food trucks that come by but your own bag of chips come in handy and compliment their DIPA’s so well, that you’ll thank me… especially when the food truck left for the day.
Cheers!

Thanks to a craft beer, home brewing loving boyfriend, I have been to several of these small breweries. Of the ones I’ve tried, I have always enjoyed Noble Ale Works. It’s super casual, fun, and has the best tasting beers I’ve found.
I love the selection – it goes from blondes to unusual combinations. I tend to favor the white beers, sours and saisons so I look to my guy to guide me. I usually go for a taster and choose the beers that have tea mixed with it. I had a fantastic beer called Princess Peach’s Plumber Party which had peach iced tea. It ruled! My latest visit, I had one with Magnolia Tea and I had the Naughty Sauce. The Naughty Sauce was AMAZING!!! It tasted like coffee but it’s a beer!
My bf and other friends always get flights so I get to taste delicious brews such as Irish I was A Little Bit Taller, Tongue Tickles, and Man’s Milk. The names are just so fun. I love coming here!

Living in Anaheim, I didn’t realize how many breweries we had within a five-​mile radius — in fact, I’m sort of embarrassed that I haven’t been to them all already.
A friend invited me out for a late night beer and I was hesitant on going. Not because it was far, but because I was being lazy. She then followed up the text with something along the lines of «they have peach iced tea beer…» She knows my weaknesses and within a few minutes, I was inside a business park staring up at a menu full of delicious sounding options.
I’m fickle. When I see something with flights or samplers, that’s the route I usually go. Noble had the option, so what turned into one beer turned into five mini ones… all amazing for different reasons. I usually gravitate towards lighter styles and they had plenty to choose from with my favorites being the Lemon Shandyland, Grapefruit Shandyland and the Princess Peach’s Plumber Party.
I did shake things up and added a dark in there with their signature Man’s Milk. Yeah… it sounded dirty, but all gross jokes aside; it was delicious. For being a dark beer, the flavor wasn’t too overwhelming or strong for me and it was actually quite smooth. I’d consider ordering a solo one of these on a future visit.
Most flights are around the $ 10 mark, but different beers have different surcharges. They make it super obvious on the menu as you’re ordering so that you’re not surprised when they give you the bill. I like the way they let you choose your beers with full descriptions, alcohol contents and more. If you don’t know what you want, the beer slingers are awesome and super informative.
Parking is easy as it has it’s own lot, and they have a good amount of seating around the brewery. If you’re not a social person, you might want to go doing the week when it’s less crowded as their bigger seating space is communal — so stop being such a wallflower and be social! If you prefer drinking solo or at home, they offer growlers to fill up with your favorites — it’s also a sweet gesture if you want to give that special beer guzzler in your life a jug for celebratory reasons.

This place is definitely hidden and fortunately, with the help of Google Maps, we were able to find it tucked away inside a warehouse lot. There’s plenty of parking. I always enjoyed grabbing drinks at different microbreweries and I thought this place was pretty neat. I went for their flight sample of 5 brews for $ 11 and what stood out the most was their «I Believe I Can Chai.» I love chai latte and it was awesome to have that in beer form, on the creamier side with a little bit of spice. What a unique brew.
Their other brews are around $ 5 – 7 so price is definitely reasonable.

One of my favorite microbreweries in the area! Dropped by on a Tuesday and it was surprisingly busy: p thought it’d be a quick growler fill but my friend and I ended up staying til closing time. I love love love their Tongue Tickles. Such a crisp, clean double IPA. I’m also not a fan of stouts, but their Naughty Sauce is unlike anything I’ve ever tasted.
All the times I’ve visited, there’s been some sort of food truck parked outside (which is nice when the drunchies hit). Come on by! Bring a friend and have a beer or three :)
