North of downtown, in a small strip mall, is where this establishment sits. A fairly long and narrow tap room, with a long bar of dark lacquered wood and dark stools with seat backs. I found their beers to be average but they have guest taps and sell good beer from bottles and cans from around the world. Their Joystick Revolution imperial IPA was easily the favorite of the four tasted.

this place used to be pints alehouse, a noteworthy selection of craft beers always lived here, and it still does, they just make their own now. its even the same people at the helm, really cool that they introduced this element to their business. the place has always felt like an old house to me, small and humble north of town with a long bar running the length of the front portion, and a hallway to the back by the bathrooms with some more seating scattered around, modest and quaint but always clean and super friendly. they have mix of their own beers and heady guest taps, maybe six or seven of their own the rest mostly specialty stuff from others, really good options here, way above average. i do not think they are actually making beer here, this location is the taproom and i am fairly sure the beer is being produced off site. in any event, i had time for two, a chocolate stout on nitro with coconut, and a hazy new england type pale ale, both of them were very good, and it seems whoever is running the brew house is both creative and competent. i wish i had time for more! despite the space feeling sort of generic, could be any random taproom, they offer something quite unique here, and i think they will do real well with this model, especially if their beers stay this good. cool folks at the bar, solid service, ultra crafty spot, i really enjoyed my time here. recommended! the spokane scene continues to explode!

Got lucky and stumbled across this place with a few friends while hanging out in North Spokane. Pints is the best ale/tap house in the Spokane area. Great service, great atmosphere and always a very unique selection of beers to try. This is a place that always has something new and exciting to try and the beers are far from ordinary. Most of the beers that I have seen on tap here, I have never seen on tap anywhere else. The best part about Pints is the community that exists there. The owners are very friendly and knowledgable, and the people that Pints attracts are very passionate about beer as well. After only 3 visits, I can safely say this is my favorite place to enjoy a beer or watch a game in Spokane.

This has become my favorite place to try new beer at a bar in town. Fortunately for me I now live in its shadow, a definite plus. I have never even had a mediocre beer here. There is absolutely nothing on tap that is not delicious here! Derick the owner is a definite beer connoisseur and has a very in depth knowledge and wide variety of appreciation for beer. The taps are constantly rotating and serve the cleanest pours I've had in town in their proper glassware ( the only bar in Spokane that does this). Some of the beers on draft are rare and unique. Some examples would include: Duvel, Maudite, Vintage 2011 Hibernation by great divide, and Gudenband to name a few. Most everything on tap is potent in alcohol content, but presented in a generous 12 ounce pour. Their bottle selection is also pretty solid. I highly recommend this place if you are looking to expand your appreciation for a wide variety of beers.

Pints is great place to try great beer. The owners are very cool and laid back but also really know beer. Their samplers are reasonably priced and they have a broad selection.

They have 18 taps that will never have anything but true craft beer, they also serve wine and bottled beer.
Some beers I've had there:
DFH 90 min.
Old Rasputin on nitro
Hoptimum
Parabola
Ruination
Stone Russian Imperial Stout
Deshutes Hop Henge
Firestone Double Jack
and probably 20 others.

They never put the same keg on twice in a row, so there is always variety. A good number of their taps are big beers also.

If you like craft beer get out and support this place so we don't lose it.

I have been to Pint's a few times now and am excited to have another bar in town with an ownership that's passionate about great beer.

The quality is high and the taps rotate frequently. Samplers are reasonable if you want to try a lot of new beers. There's a happy hour with $1 off just about everything. Also, the list is updated frequently with prices and serving size clearly listed.

Recalling some of the beers I've had there...
North Coast Old Stock
DFH Sah-tea
Fremont Select 77
Iron Horse Double Rainbow
Stone Ruination

So, pretty darn good. You can also order food from the Mexican restaurant next door and they will bring it over for you. No kitchen in the bar so that's the reason for the food arrangement. It works out well since the Mexican place has a pretty full menu.
