Alvarado Street Brewery unveils its 'forever home'

A new chapter for one of Monterey County's business success stories begins this weekend with the grand opening of Alvarado Street Brewery's new 32,000-square-foot facility in Castroville, a major expansion the brewery is calling its "forever home." The brewery, which owner and head brewer JC Hill started as a homebrew operation less than 20 years ago, is moving the bulk of its beer production and packaging to Castroville, where the operations will share space with a new tasting room. "This is our new forever home where we will make the vast majority of our beer," said Hill during an interview earlier this week. Known as "The Plant," the new facility will become the company's primary production facility and headquarters. The new location will be Alvarado Street Brewery's largest in the Monterey Bay area. Its production facility on Dayton Street in Salinas has largely wound down, Hill said, yet the tasting room there remains in operation. Alvarado Street Brewery & Bistro located in the Carmel Plaza, showcases some of the brewery's more experimental and German-forward beers. Its scenic location with an Art Deco interior in downtown Salinas, was last year rebranded Alvarado Street Brewery Taproom. Located in the heart of downtown

This Middle-Of-Nowhere California Restaurant Serves The State’s Most Incredible Steaks

There are places in California that everyone knows about, and then there are places that the people who know about them would prefer to keep to themselves. Wool Growers Restaurant in Los Banos falls into the second category, except that the food is so good that keeping it secret starts to feel genuinely selfish.

One apple orchard on this list stays open 363 days a year. I have to admit, that makes me curious what pie lovers do on the other two. That same farm has worked the land for over 100 years and is run by its fifth generation. Another stop on the list started as a simple fruit stand back in 1950.

10 Outback Steakhouse restaurants close in 4 states as franchisee files Chapter 11

Out West Restaurant Group closed 10 Outback Steakhouse restaurants in Arizona, California, Colorado, and Nevada before filing for Chapter 11. Few moments unsettle a regular diner faster than pulling into a familiar parking lot and finding the windows dark and the doors locked. Casual chain restaurants hold a particular place in American routines. Families book them for birthdays, teams pile in after weekend games, and tired couples treat them as dependable fallbacks when nobody wants to cook. A shuttered location erases one of those habits without warning. The loss leaves nearby guests wondering whether their own favorite spot will go next. Workers lose the shifts they counted on. Each closing ripples past the people who used to order dinner there.
