Bravery Brewing Co.

A gold-medal winner at the popular San Diego International Brew Competition, Bravery Brewing Co. is a prime example of the successful local craft beer trade. Bravery has grown 50 percent each year for the last six years and now offers 30 different beers ranging from pale ales to hearty stouts.

Brewmaster Brian Avery and his team added new canning capabilities allowing them to distribute their popular “Allegiance IPA” throughout the Southland and beyond. A new Premium Beer Club provides members with first dibs on their best barrel- aged brews.

Brian believes brewing to be a blend of art and science. Brewers must understand the rigors of chemistry, but also possess the creativity to express themselves through the flavor they instill in each product they produce.

Microbrewers are a fearless group who seem to have a desire to always push the envelope. Arch rivals share a kinship and camaraderie in a craft which allows them to share in each other’s success. In Avery’s eyes, that is the key to making great beer. Try some.
