A Place for People Who’ve Earned Their Pour

Shades Brewing didn’t start with a taproom or a marketing plan. It started in a garage, with a few tanks, some stubborn optimism, and a belief that craft should mean something. Now, in our first brewpub in Salt Lake City, we’ve built a space for people who work hard, care about what they drink, and know that good things take time. If that’s you, pull up a chair.

Shades SLC Brewery & Pub Now Open.

This Is Where the Story Gets Poured

Anyone can pour beer. We built a space that reflects what we believe: that attention to detail matters, that community isn’t an add-on, and that the people you share a table with shape the whole experience. Our Salt Lake City brewpub is for those who care — about flavor, about craft, about the moment. It’s not for everyone. It’s for you.

Take The Good Stuff Home

Not every moment happens at the bar — that’s why we offer our freshest beers to go. Whether you're heading to a backyard hang, a post-shift wind-down, or just your favorite chair, you can bring Shades with you. The beers change often, because freshness matters.

Hours: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM M-Th 11:00AM-11:00PM Friday & Saturday, 11:00AM-9:00PM Sunday

Location: 1388 S 300 W Ste 400, SLC
