About The Hangar - Taproom & Bottle Shop
The Hangar - Taproom & Bottle Shop is a taproom on Lake Tahoe Boulevard in South Lake Tahoe. Its website says it opened in 2018 to bring a considered beer experience to Lake Tahoe that was not trapped in a casino or a strip mall. The site also says it is not a brewery.
The taps come from other makers. Its website says it sources small, independently owned craft beer from around the state, and the list changes all the time. The site says it was voted best beer in Tahoe from 2021 through 2025.
The yard is a big part of the draw. The website describes an acre of outdoor, family-friendly space under pine trees. It says the spot was voted best outdoor space in 2024 and 2025.
Food trucks roll through, and live music fills the summer calendar. Leashed dogs are allowed, though not on the turf.
