 OUR BREW HiSTORY: 

In 1993 Golden City Brewery began offering a couple craft brews- the very first offered was the Legendary Red Ale- a German style alt bier. The list was soon expanded to include a Pale Ale (Clear Creek Gold), an English Style Brown (Mad Molly's Brown),  and an Oatmeal Stout (Lookout Stout). 

Since that time, the popularity of beer styles has ebbed and flowed, and we are proud to offer a wide range of beer styles today, including several traditional German Style Biers. GCB recently purchased a couple new fermenting and serving tanks and added more taps- we are proud to say our selection is better than ever Our beer garden is always ready for you!
