The uprising is finally hitting the main drag in Chula Vista, the municipality where it\u2019s most important that it make an impact\u2014Third Avenue. That thoroughfare is already home to Third Avenue Alehouse<\/strong><\/a> and will soon be joined by the area\u2019s first fully functioning brewery and tasting room, Thr3e Punk Ales Brewing Company<\/strong><\/a>. Much fanfare has surrounded the latter while another interest bearing the city\u2019s name has quietly gone about the business of going into business right across the street: Chula Vista Brewery<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Located at 294 Third Avenue<\/strong>, Chula Vista Brewery is the product of Timothy and Dali Parker<\/strong>, a couple who live in the area. As the company\u2019s name suggests, the Parkers aim to be ultra-local, which will include teaming with other Chula Vista businesses.\u00a0They feel there is a misconception that Chula Vista lacks craft-beer drinkers, which has led to the community\u2019s underserviced status from a brewing perspective. So, they\u2019re taking it upon themselves to give their community the ales they feel it deserves.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Russell<\/strong> Clements<\/strong>, a veteran brewer who worked at\u00a0Rock Bottom<\/strong><\/a>‘s La Jolla brewpub under (current\u00a0Second Chance Beer Company<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>brewmaster)\u00a0Marty Mendiola<\/strong> before moving on to\u00a0Ballast Point Brewing<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>will be the one manning the brewhouse.\u00a0He will be assisted by Timothy, whose\u00a0brewing background\u00a0has all been gained on the home-front. Together, the duo will craft enough beers to stock CVB\u2019s dozen taps. They are currently developing a blonde, red ale, American pale ale, IPA\u00a0and stout on their five-barrel Premier Stainless system. A double IPA, porter, imperial stout and hoppy lager will come later.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

While the business may open as soon as this weekend (the Parkers advise that they will post information about any soft-opening on their website<\/strong><\/a>), the official grand opening will take place on Friday, May 5<\/strong>. CVB\u00a0will have Third Avenue to themselves for a little while. Their cross-street colleagues at Thr3e Punk Ales are currently scheduled to open to the public by the end of June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
