Aftershock Brewing Company
Welcome to Aftershock Brewing Company. After years of brewing for ourselves and our family, we thought it would be fun to share the results of our brewing experience with others. We are native Californians and proud of it, and enjoy sharing our passion for our great state with others. We are truly hands on every step of the brewing process. Our goal is to produce the most memorable world class beers possible. We think we’ve met that goal, & hope you’ll agree.
At Aftershock, we are an artistic group, and are always testing new locally sourced ingredients and pushing the envelope in our test batches. All stages of the brewing process are closely monitored to ensure our beers taste great and our cleanliness is second-to-none. The result is beer with much more character, subtle nuances, and awesome flavor. Don’t take our word for it; come check us out at our taproom or order some beers online and try for yourself. Cheers!
