The limited release of its Bourbon Barrel-aged IPA swept the Gold at the LA County International Beer Competition. Gold Awards also went to the Jubilee and Nut Brown Ale, while the Starry Night Stout went on to claim the Silver. At the California State Fair competition, the Starry Night Stout took the First Place Gold Medal while the Jubilee earned the Third Place Silver Medal.
“As craft beer makes inroads into the mass-consumer market, people are recognizing both the variety and value of what we brew,” says owner and brewer Paul Wright. “It’s been great to see visitors and locals alike appreciate our offerings. We’ve got a great team, great customers, and we are looking forward to brewing some more exciting and hopefully award-winning beers.”
