    I'm driving up to Santa Rosa for a beer road trip leaving San Diego on December 28th. I have a few nights along the way and will be staying the night in Santa Rosa on the 30th and then Fresno on the 31st on the way south. Since I'll be driving south from Santa Rosa on the 31st I was wondering if anyone knows for sure that certain breweries along the way will be open on NYE and then again whether any south of Fresno on my way back to San Diego are open on NYD (Jan 1). I hadn't thought of this at first but then someone from Silva Brewing mentioned they are closed on both days.

    I'll be doing a lot of my beer stops on the way North but I might as well hit a few more on the way South assuming they are open. I also hope this thread helps others who want to hit breweries those days.

    I'll be visiting Sante Adarius, Silva brewing, Libertine, Firestone Walker, Fieldwork, Rare Barrel, Russian River, Alvarado Street and maybe a few LA stops on the way back. I've already been to Cellarmaker recently so I'm not likely to stop through the city to hit them up this trip.

    I'll bump this, as I'll be on my way back from Monterey to Phoenix over New Year's as well.

    Most breweries have posted their holiday hours by now. If there's a particular one you're interested in visiting, I suggest trying their website/Facebook/Instagram

    What? I don't see holiday hours posted for Russian River, Fieldwork, Noble, The Bruery, Highland Park,

    The Rare Barrel is the only one which has posted 1-8PM NYE and Closed NYD.

    Good Beer Company and Monkish have posted Christmas hours but not NYE hours.

    I posted this question because last year when I had a friend in town for Christmas we had no idea which breweries or bars were actually open until we asked in a large Facebook group.

    Why not call? Don't see why you didn't do that last year as well.

    Because the majority of the time I have tried calling breweries nobody answers the phone even during standard hours.

    I get that if you had a particular brewery in mind, it would make the most sense to check their website or call them to get their holiday hours. To me, though, it seems like OP was more or less asking people to chime in with any places they knew were going to be open, not asking people to do his research for him.

    Well I might as well post my research as I've verified various places.

    Cellar maker has updated Google hours with holiday hours. They are open Saturday shorter hours but closed Sunday.

    Monkish posted that they are open both days, limited hours. Good beer company as well.
