The Bridger Brewing Story

From my very first sip of Anchor Steam beer over 20 years ago the vision of Bridger Brewing was realized. It was beautiful; cold and luscious in the mouth, though it almost burned going down, warming my insides and dancing in my head… like drinking pure liquid gold. The American microbrewery revolution was still in its infancy and true entrepreneurs like Bert Grant, Fritz Maytag, Charlie Papazian, Jim Koch and Ken Grossman would lead the charge and inspire many more to join their ranks. I was young and living in the epicenter of this movement in the Pacific Northwest and quickly discovered that not only could beer be done better, but food, coffee… everything could be done better.

I first learned to homebrew with my older brother in Alaska and fell in love with and celebrated the tradition of creating such a magical drink. Maybe I was an artist after all? And though we brewed some fine beers together, I immersed myself in my new hobby and soon began making b

The beer! The pizza! It’s all so good! With their own brewery, you end up having several delicious options. Over the winter they had some sort of fruity beer that I could not get enough of.

Food and GF beers were awesome in a cool environment. Staff did an excellent job! Being from seattle we are picky about beers, yet this beer was very good! Cheers

Great atmosphere. Definitely a college across the street. The pizza was unique and very good. We had the chorizo and artichoke with jalapeño and chili lime sauce and the pepperoni with bison. The beer was great. Try the nitro stout! I wish we lived closer! Stop in, you won’t be let down.

Time and time again I am impressed with Bridger’s food, beer, and service. We took our three year old to lunch, and the waitress was not only friendly, she was proactive in making sure all of us were happy. Our little one had crayons, a coloring menu, and animal crackers; my wife and I enjoyed the monstrous slices and delicious pints! Our waitress even sliced the slice so that our girl would enjoy the pizza that much more… Simply brilliant. Their Rye Smile IPA was on tap, and that was very tasty. We also had the Antilogy Black IPA — also very good. All in all, if you are looking for a kid-​friendly restaurant with great everything, I highly recommend Bridger Brewing!

Our afternoon at Bridger Brewing was, hands down, the most fun we had while in Bozeman. We swung by just after opening on a Tuesday. After parking right in front of the building, we secured a table on the balcony (with an umbrella for shade, yay!).
First great decision: a Jurassic-​sized slice of pizza for lunch. Jeez, I can’t believe I actually considered ordering two slices at the outset. Once was more than sufficient for me because each slice can cover most of a dinner plate! I got the special of the day – the Elote with chorizo – and it was lip-​smackingly, belly-​rubbingly delicious. My boyfriend got a slice of the chorizo Elote and a slice of the bison pepperoni (when in Montana…), and he was just as elated as I was at the pizza.
After that, the great decisions just kept coming by way of beer that was good enough to rival those pizza slices. First up was the McTavish Scotch Ale, which was big on the caramel flavor: just the way I love my scotch ales! Next up, I had the Mad Mile Cream Ale, which was the best day-​drinking beer I’ve ever had. The beer is infused with cucumber and honeydew, so believe me when I say it is incredibly refreshing while also incredibly delicious. Finally, I had the Roosevelt Red, and it was a pleasant way to round out my afternoon. I also stole a sip of my boyfriend’s Ghost Town Coffee Stout at some point, and that stuff seriously tastes like alcoholic cold brew. It’s dangerous.
If I ever find myself back in Bozeman, Bridger Brewing will be my first stop. Like I said, we had such a blast here thanks to the delicious food and brews (all you need for a good conversation, right?), and we were definitely sad to leave!

Fantastic local pizza joint and brewery. Had the Buffalo pepperoni pizza and the caldera. Man, great crust, local fresh igredients, and great beer to boot. The Lee Pale Ale with 100% citra hops was amazing! Will be back again next time I come to Bozeman.

Oh my goodness, the lunch special with salad and pizza is so good. It’s great before, during or after any event at MSU. Best food and atmosphere in the area, hands down.

Livingston, MT
The food is fantastic. You can’t go wrong with any of their pizzas and the salads are killer. The beer is pretty mediocre most days but at times they will get creative and surprise me. The imperial brown is definitely my favorite beer they have here… bummer that it’s seasonal. The outside seating is awesome in the summer. They intelligently put a bar on the deck for quick and easy service.

Best pizza in town (but 406 brewing pizza and Blackbird are close). Beers are also tops — (much, much, cleaner than 406, if less playful). How bout a saison that sticks around? And please bring back the tasty hoppy red ales. Yum.
Thank you Bridger. You are almost considered another building on campus. Small discounts for MSU peeps?

LOVE the pizzas here! Everything you could possibly want as a topping and more with interesting variety. Crust is perfect with that great brick-​oven char. Huge chunky roasted garlic and andouille sausage are my favorites!
The beers here though are nothing to write home about. I end up getting Bobcat Brown every time because there are too many IPAs or super duper dark brews that are HEAVY. Too heavy to drink with a couple slices of pizza. I wish for a nice amber or something more mid bodied to stay one the menu year round!
Do I care that it’s gluten free or gluten reduced? No. But might it be better if it wasn’t? No way to know!

After a flight of dark beer (Ghost Town Coffee Stout on Nitro, Antilogy Black IPA, Bobcat Brown Ale and McTavish Scotch Ale) and a «Bison Pepperoni Supreme» pizza, I have to say the pizza deserves the higher marks. A little skimpy on the sausage, but, my, it was good! My guest had two different lamb sausage combos and they were both awesome.
The beer was strongly flavored — more coffee in the stout than I prefer, and the black ipa had a bitter finish, but their Pale fit the description («a hoppy, dry pale ale») and the Vigilante IPA would be a fabulous summer drink.
Great service, great ambiance (especially for a pub so close to a college campus). Definitely 4+.

I visited this brewery/​pizza parlor twice during our weeklong visit to Montana in Bozeman with my large family. The staff was extremely friendly, the beer was delicious (and all gluten-​free I might add), and the pizza choices were very unique and delicious.
Both time we went there we traveled with a group of seven children (eight years old and younger) and no one batted an eye at the controlled chaos running amok. There was plenty of high chairs for the two kiddos and the staff was happy to assist at any request we had. The kids all enjoyed their root beer which was a very special treat for them (which I believe they brew in the house).
Seem to be a very popular spot amongst college students to eat and work. If I lived here, this would be a place I’d want to work.
I look forward to coming back here next time we visit Bozeman. Good job guys. Keep up the good work.

Pizza and brew. This and salads is it.
The special that I had was good. The buffalo pepperoni was good, but not noticeably different from pork and beef pepperoni. The crust is thin crust, but crispier than NY style.
Their pale ale is great, not too hoppy, but with enough balls to make it worthwhile.
I would drop in again on the way to a game.

Got a single slice of the bison pepperoni pizza was good not great. The black ipa is amazing though would come here just for the beer and a good cheap slice of pizza.

Ordered the Bison Pepperoni Supreme and was NOT disappointed. I placed the order based on a recommendation and it was ready shortly after I arrived. When I called, he advised me of all the specials. Talk about gourmet… pretty darn cool!
Love that they use bison for their pepperoni as it is much more lean.
The atmosphere of this place is very inviting. I wished I had stayed and tried one of their craft beers. Next time!

We stopped on our way to and from Glacier National Park, both times fantastic. Great craft beer, and great pizza at a good price. What more could you ask for?
The pizza slices are huge. One slice with their delicious side salad made for a meal. We tried the special slice on both occasions and were pleased with both. Definitely not your run of the mill pizza. The beer was also great (which is saying a lot when you come from Fort Collins, the craft brew capital).
We will definitely come again the next time we are in Bozeman.

The food was okay. Our pizza crust was mushy/​doughy. Tons of places serve similar style pizza in town and are doing a better job. Ingredients were high quality but the execution lacked.
The beers I’ve tried aren’t my favorite in town but for gluten free beer it’s great. Overall it’s a good gluten free dinner option.

Food was good, and the couple of beers I both had were pretty darn good, too. Mostly your MT, simple palate standards, but there were a couple more interesting beers, especially the coffee stout (if I remember correctly).
Handy location up on campus. Worth checking out.
