Thirsty Tuesday: Prospector’s Brewing Company

Prospectors Brewing Company is located in Northern California at a place called Murphys CA which is known to be the “next Napa Valley” as it is surrounded by wineries, wine tasting, shops, many places to eat, and a lot of history as well. I discovered this place since “G”, my friends, and I recently went on a roadtrip to my friend’s ranch. It was such an experience to see how the drive through NorCal and see what it was like. I’ve never done a road trip to Norcal, just to Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana, so as a Cali native it was nice to see how it was like.

I really like the name Prospectors which means someone who explores an area in search of oil, gold, or other mineral deposits. Prospectors Brewing Company takes a modern approach by creating contemporary taprooms that  brings back the nature of these towns during the gold rush.

I really loved the artwork on the chalkboard. It’s colorful, artistic, and makes it fun to choose a Flight tasting menu.

Here is the name of just some that we’ve tried. One of my favorite was the Mariposa Misnight – Oaked & Smoked Stout because it tasted like chocolate, coffee, and was extra creamy.

Do you see the two darkest ones on the Flight Sampler?  I believethose are the milk stouts which were my favorites.
