For those of us who enjoy well crafted beer, created from local sources, and made with a passion and joy - you have to visit and support 18Seventy Brewing Co.('Desto, Ca.)...and she is woman owned!
I had the pleasure of meeting the owner and brewmaster. She is pleasant, knowledgeable, attentive, and darn right cool! I had a pint of Sonoma Pale Ale. Delicious. Sampled a couple of Hazy IPAs - both amazing! And then a pint of Lux Lager, equally delicious.
The beer menu is impressive with a diverse representation for any beer appreciation. She has ciders and seltzer for those who prefer. All the beers had personality, pleasing on the pallet, quality to the taste, refreshingly alive, and damn chilly to quench the thirst.
But, for we quality beer drinkers who demand excellent crated ales and stouts, this is a great spot. Good for the locals and economy, and worth the drive if you are curious. I visit monthly as a volunteer with Operation 9-2-99, Tuolumne River clean up (https://sites.google.com/a/monet.k12.ca.us/gdhs-guptill-c/tuolumne-river-project), and I look forward to my next visit. I'll have a couple and a growler to go!
Come out and volunteer with Op 9299, say Hello to me and that you read my post...and I'll buy you a beer if you're old enough to drink.
