EJ Phair, 300 Cumberland St, Pittsburg, CA 94565

Announcement:

We regret to inform our many fans, friends, and members that due to some last minute regulations imposed by the Health Department, we will not be serving our latest beer creation as a part of the Brentwood Beer Festival’s annual Home Brewing Competition.  However, we are sponsoring a raffle with a fantastic prize.  A $ 175.00 gift certificate from Beer, Beer and more Beer of Concord.   The tickets are available at our booth selling at 2 entries for $5.00 or 5 entries for $ 10.00 .  A great deal for someone. We will still be present to answer questions about  how beer is made, meet with all of you, and enjoy all the tasty beer that will be served. Hope to see you there

There is confusion concerning the conflicting regulations from the California Alcohol and Beverage Control and the California Department of Public Health that has caused this challenge.  We are working with the hosts of the festival, Brentwood Chamber of Commerce, to see what can be done to fix this for next year.

America’s small and independent breweries have stories, personalities and their own set of challenges that you may not …
