Ray Ballestero of Alaro Craft Brewery The Dine One Six

    • Food

Ray Ballestero is the co-owner of Alaro Craft Brewery along with his wife Annette. Alaro is located in the old Rubicon Brewing Co. location which was a Sacramento institution for almost 30 years. 
Alaro is a labor of love and combines decades of experience in home brewing paired with Ray’s upbringing eating food influenced from his Spanish background. Combine that with his wife’s background as a co-owner of River City Brewing Company, a master Head Brewer in Chris Keeton and great tapas by Chef David Santana and you’ve got a Midtown spot that is almost singular in Sacramento. 
Ray talks about his background in medicine, home brewing, running a fair trade business and the struggle to survive the pandemic after only being open for 18 months before it hit.
