Our production brewery & tasting room opened in the Spreckels Junction area of Salinas in 2016. In early 2018 we opened our R&D pilot brewery and bistro in Carmel-by-the-Sea, known as the “Stro.” Our newest addition to the ASB family is Alvarado Street Brewery & Taproom located in Oldtown Salinas which opened the fall of 2022.
