Best Breweries
Dead Reckoning Tavern was established in 2015 to bring Humboldt County the best beer from around the world. Forty two taps and a 200+ bottle shop should cover all the beers you need and all the beers you didn't know you needed. Located Behind the Arcata COOP and next to The Burger Joint. Just think of an 8th and a J and you'll find us.
