\"\"<\/a>Brewery owners come up with names for their businesses in a variety of ways. For Darrel Brown<\/strong> it was happening upon an old photo of his dad dressed in \u201c\u201980\u2019s cool guy attire\u201d\u2014a tight t-shirt, trucker cap and corduroy short shorts with Aviator sunglasses and a cop mustache (to be fair, pops was a rookie cop when that pic was snapped). Finding the humor in that image, Brown\u2019s dad said he should go undercover as \u201cLance Savagewood.\u201d As soon as he heard it, Brown, a homebrewer since 2014, knew his someday fermentation operation would go by that fictitious surname. So far, that\u2019s the most concrete part of Savagewood Brewing<\/strong><\/a>, but if all goes as planned, many other aspects of the business will be chiseled into certainties in the next few months.<\/p>\n

Brown has set his sights on the north-inland San Diego community of Rancho Bernardo. He sees it as an underserved area with demographics that align with his company\u2019s goals. Currently, the neighborhood is home to a single brewery, Abnormal Beer Company<\/strong><\/a>, which is located inside The Cork and Craft <\/strong><\/a>restaurant (which also houses a winery), and Second Chance Beer Company <\/strong><\/a>resides in bordering Carmel Mountain Ranch to the south, but there is certainly room for more homegrown beer in RB. Brown hopes to sign on a spot and begin construction of a brewery and family-friendly tasting room by fall. His current project team consists of CLTVT, Hauck Architecture and The Craft Beer Attorney (which last week joined forces with San Diego-based law firm Dinsmore & Shohl, LLP).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Early on, Brown will be responsible for brewing and business operations. He has a good deal of experience with the latter. He is currently a vice president of operations for a large data and technology company and has run his own businesses in the past. Once open, he plans on hiring an assistant brewer to help produce a line of beers that, like the company\u2019s name, is already carved in\u2026wood? They include WhIPA it Good white India pale ale (IPA), $500 Millionaire session IPA, Poppa\u2019s Amber Ale, Sugar Daddy\u2019s Brown Ale, Sunshine Tax West Coast pale ale, Orphic black IPA, Big Fat Dad wee heavy and Exquisite Blonde, a blonde ale that has won awards on the homebrew competition circuit and will be offered with various fruit additions.<\/p>\n

Brown intends to start out with a 10-barrel brewhouse and aim for production of 2,000 barrels of beer annually, with its best-selling beers being packaged in cans and bottle releases of specialty or seasonal offerings. But the main focus will be at Savagewood\u2019s taproom, which he hopes becomes an enjoyable neighborhood hangout. Distribution of packaged beer will be limited to accounts located in or near Savagewood\u2019s home base.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
