the founders
Introduced through a mutual friend a few years back, Ben and Greg immediately connected over their Pacific Northwest roots, weather, families, careers, and eventually the craft scene in San Diego. With the rise in popularity of San Diego style IPAs, they saw an opportunity to open a different kind of brewery at the heart of the community. A destination that served something for everyone without a hint of pretentiousness.
