Best secret taproom

Ruhstaller is pretty underground. Literally. Its brewery, offices and tasting room—opened just months ago—are located underneath Sacramento Downtown Plaza. And because of its location on K Street, the windows are covered up, doors are locked and signage is virtually nonexistent. To gain access, you need to ring the doorbell or make a phone call. Ruhstaller isn't trying to be a trendy speakeasy, though. Once inside, there's zero pretension. It's just a great place to drink beer—sleek, rustic and cozy—with Ruhstaller's latest hop experiments on tap. 630 K Street, (916) 447-1881, http://ruhstallerbeer.com. J.B.
