Lagunitas Azusa

I'd have to agree with @Xul. Yes it's nice to have one in our backyard, but why not the east coast where Stone is putting it's mark on (as well as international-Berlin). Is Lagunitas nationwide right now?

 

Well

Azusa is closer to L.A. than Petaluma is to San Francisco. I am pretty sure I know the area this will be located as there is a stretch in Azusa with a lot of Industrial buildings.

 

Very close by.

If I remember correctly, there will be a metro stop along Irwindale Ave, across from Miller and, presumably, near the new Lags(?)

 

Pretty much, yeah. Their Chicago facility supplies the other half of the country.

This is a bit if a head scratcher to me.

 

i didnt click on this thread for until today because i thought it was the name of a new beer. now im glad i learned this, interesting!

 

Renaissance Pleasure Faire 2017 = All beer stands serving seasonal Lagunitas = Huuzaahhhh!!!!!

 

From reading the article, it appears their goal is to break into Mexico. Aside from a few small craft breweries south of the border, there isn't much in terms of style that matches up with lagunitas. I think dollar for dollar they are one of the best widely available choices out there.

 

When I first saw this I was surprised that they were coming here. Gold line station is one block from Miller with a parking structure being built currently next to them. I'm still trying to think where the brewery is going to be at. The industrial area across from Miller is irwindale. Exciting times living in azusa.

 

Literally just saw Tony's tweet about this and haven't had a chance to read yet, but....:http://lagunitast.tumblr.com/post/123734436126/here-for-reference-complete-with-the-incumbent

 

That guy can write!

 

I like his use of hubris and hyperbole. both effective literary devices

 

It's early, but there's no mention of a tasting room or brewpub in his post above. I would be a little surprised if it didn't, but maybe they just haven't got the zoning or licensing or whatever.

 

i later read that a tasting room was indeed confirmed. should be a nice one too

 

Almost ready to open now!

Anyone know the actual address?
