4.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Basic and diluted net loss per share was computed by dividing net loss by
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
quarter. The effect of stock options has not been included in the calculation of
diluted net loss per shares as the effect is antidilutive. Options to purchase
approximately 350,000 and 425,000 shares of common stock were outstanding during
the quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, but were not included
in the computation of diluted EPS because the exercise price of the options were
greater than the average market price of the common shares.

6.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     The Company is involved from time to time in claims, proceedings and
litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not
believe that any such claim, proceeding or litigation, either alone or in the
aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

8.  SEGMENT INFORMATION:

     The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
131 "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
during 1998. Following the provisions of SFAS No. 131, the Company is reporting
segment information in the same format as reviewed by the Company's management,
which is organized around differences in products and services.

  Products and Services

     The Company's reportable segments include beverage operations and
alehouses. Beverage operations include the production and sale of Pyramid Ales,
Thomas Kemper beers and Thomas Kemper Soda Company products. The alehouse
segment consists of two full-service alehouses, which market and sell the full
line of the Company's beer and soda products as well as food and certain
merchandise.

  Factors used to identify reportable segments

     The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer
distinct and different products and services. These segments are managed
separately because each business requires different production, management and
marketing strategies.

  Measurement of segment profit and segment assets

                                       7
<PAGE>

     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates
performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes not
including nonrecurring gains and losses. The Company records intersegment sales
at cost.

Segment profit and segment assets are as follows:

                                       Beverage

</TABLE>

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2000

     Gross Sales.  Gross sales increased 0.8% to $6,578,000 in the first quarter
ended March 31, 2001 from $6,523,000 in the same quarter of 2000. Wholesale
beverage sales decreased 1.4% to $4,768,000 in the first quarter ended March 31,
2001 from $4,836,000 in the same quarter of 2000. Although total beverage barrel
shipments remained flat compared to prior year, soda shipments increased 15.3%
to 9,800 barrels in the current quarter from 8,500 barrels in the same quarter
of the prior year. The soda shipment increases were offset by a 5.1% decrease in
beer barrels shipped to 22,300 barrels from 23,500 barrels in the same quarter
of the prior year. Alehouse sales increased 7.3%, to $1,810,000 in the first
quarter ended March 31, 2001, from $1,687,000 in the same quarter of
2000 due to increased patronage at both alehouse restaurants.

     Excise Taxes.  Excise taxes totaled 4.2% and 5.4% of gross sales for the
quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decrease in excise
taxes as a percentage of gross sales was due mainly to a greater portion of soda
and alehouse sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2001, which do not bear
excise tax.

     Gross Margin.  Gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 21.3%
in the first quarter ended March 31, 2001 from 23.7% in the same quarter of
2000. This decrease as a percentage of net sales was due mainly to increased
energy costs of $110,000 and other brewery operating expenses.

                                       9
<PAGE>

     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 23.2% to $2,170,000 or 34.4% of net sales for
the first quarter ended March 31, 2001 from $1,761,000 or 28.6% of net sales for
the same quarter of 2000. This increase as a percentage of net sales was due
mainly to increased marketing expense of $363,000 related to a brand awareness
campaign which began in the fourth quarter of 2000 and was completed in the
first quarter of 2001.

     Other Income, net.  Other income, net was approximately $101,000 and 1.6%
of net sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared to $92,000 and
1.5% of net sales in the same quarter of 2000.

     Income Taxes.  The Company recorded no income tax benefit for the quarters
ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had deferred
tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences, tax losses, and tax
credits offset against certain deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance
was recorded against the deferred tax asset for the benefits of tax losses which
may not be realized. Realization of the deferred tax asset representing tax loss
and credit carryforwards is dependent on the Company's ability to generate
future U.S. taxable income. The Company will continue to evaluate the
realizability of the deferred tax assets quarterly by assessing the need for and
amount of a valuation allowance.

     Net Loss.  The Company reported a net loss of $726,000 for the first
quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared to a net loss of $210,000 in the same
quarter of 2000. The increase in net loss was primarily due to the increase in
marketing expenses, increased brewery operating costs, and increases in energy
costs.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Net cash used in operating activities during the first quarter ended March
31, 2001 was approximately $310,000 compared to cash provided by operations in
the amount of $61,000 for the same period of the prior year. This decrease was
due primarily to the increase in net loss for the quarter. Net cash used in
investing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 was $247,000 compared
to net cash used in investing activities of $226,000 for the same period of the
prior year. The cash used in investing activities in 2001 included funds used to
expand the Seattle alehouse and to upgrade refrigeration in the Berkeley
brewery. At March 31, 2001, the Company had working capital of $6,733,000
compared to $7,431,000 at December 31, 2000.

     On December 15, 1999, the Company announced a stock buyback plan to
repurchase up to $2,000,000 of the Company's common stock from time to time on
the open market. Stock repurchases are at the discretion of management and
depend, among other things, on the Company's results of operations, capital
requirements and financial condition, and on such other factors as the Company's
management may consider relevant. In addition, the Company is required to
maintain a minimum tangible net worth and other covenants under its line of
credit, which may restrict the Company's ability to repurchase shares. As of
March 31, 2001, the Company has repurchased 445,998 shares at an average price
of $1.94 per share.

     The Company has a $5,000,000 line of credit (the Line of Credit) for short-
term operating needs. The Line of Credit revolves through April 30, 2001, during
which time the payments are interest only. Subsequent to quarter-end, the line
of credit was extended to July 31, 2001. At that date, any outstanding balance
will be due in full. Borrowings under the Line of Credit will accrue interest,
at the Company's option, at either the bank's prime rate or at LIBOR plus 150
basis points. As of March 31, 2001, the Company had not borrowed on the Line of
Credit.

     Future capital requirements may vary depending on such factors as the cost
of acquisition of businesses, brands and real estate costs in the markets
selected for future expansion, whether such real estate is leased or purchased
and the extent of improvements necessary. Capital expenditures in 2001 are
expected to be comparable to the 2000 expenditures. Planned projects include the
continued upgrading of brewery equipment and alehouse facilities in the Seattle
and Berkeley locations. While there can be no assurance that current
expectations will be realized and plans are subject to change upon further
review, the Company believes that its cash reserves, together with cash from
operations and borrowings under the Line of Credit, will be sufficient for the
Company's working capital needs.

     The Company's future cash requirements and cash flow expectations are
closely related to its expansion plans. The Company generally expects to meet
future financing needs through cash on-hand, cash flow from operations and, to
the extent required and available, additional bank borrowings.

RISK FACTORS AND FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     The Company does not provide forecasts of future financial performance.
However this report does contain forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which are subject to the
"safe harbor" created by that section. There are numerous important factors that
could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by some of the
statements made by the Company. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking
statements involve a high degree of risk and uncertainty. Additional information
concerning those and other factors is contained in the Company's Securities and
Exchange Commission filings including its Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2000.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      The Company is involved from time to time in claims, proceedings and
litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Pyramid Breweries Inc. is
named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the Superior
Court of Washington for King County: Jerseys All American Sports Bar v. Alaska
Distributors Co., et al., No. 00-2-20485-0SEA, filed on August 3, 2000. The
lawsuit purports to allege claims on behalf of all purchasers of Pyramid
Hefeweizen by the keg for retail sale during the period May 1, 1999 to the
present. The lawsuit alleges violations of Washington's Consumer Protection Act
