Restraint, by Institution Ale Company, is a brown ale that balances toasted dark malts and American hops. Hard maple wood adds a woodsy dryness and slight maple sweetness.
When Institution Ale Company became Camarillo’s first brewery and tasting room in 2013, the craft beer wave had just begun to hit Ventura County. Roger Smith co-owns the company with his sons, Ryan and Shaun. Institution began as a nanobrewery, or a scaled down microbrewery, in the industrial area of Camarillo, brewing three 100-gallon batches of beer every week. Between supplying two taprooms and distributing draft beer to bars and restaurants in Ventura and Los Angeles counties and the Central Coast, the brewing operation in Camarillo is nearly maxed out! Looking forward, they see themselves needing to grow in order to meet their high demand.

Communist Poodles in Connecticut, by Paperback Brewing Company, is an American Stout that’s smooth and roasty with hints of coffee notes and chocolate malt.
Paperback Brewing Company’s journey began with building a small pilot brewery in their garage, which quickly became nicknamed “The Lab.” Not sparing any expense, their brewery consisted of everything that would help them brew a high-quality product similar to the commercial breweries that they loved. After years of learning from their mistakes and experimenting with a myriad of recipes, they realized that they were onto something - something that sparked a feeling that coupling their passion and newfound knowledge of craft brewing, it was only natural that the next step was to own and operate a brewery of their own – Paperback Brewing Co.

Black Walnut Dunkel, by Perennial Artisan Ales, is a chocolate brown German Dunkelweizen aged in Missouri-grown black walnuts. Big aromas of banana sit on top of this malty wheat beer, and it finishes with a nice black walnut nuance on the palate. Pairs with roasted quail and desserts made with chocolate or bananas
Perennial Artisan Ales’ philosophy is to brew beer with the adventurous craft beer drinker in mind—focusing on hand-crafted, small batches of beer, using local, seasonal and organic ingredients as much as possible. Their beers are influenced mostly by Belgian and American craft styles, but the addition of premium ingredients such as fruits, spices or wild yeast strains sometimes causes the beers to defy traditional categories. Their barrel aging program features a wide variety of beers aged in wine and spirits barrels, ranging from a Rye barrel-aged Mexican Chocolate Stout to a wild yeast-fermented Saison aged on Missouri wine grapes in French oak wine barrels. They strive to always achieve balance with each of their recipes, making their beers exceptional with food.
