Russian River Brewing Company Windsor

700 Mitchell Lane
Windsor, CA 95492
Description

Russian River Brewing Company has become one of Sonoma County’s most famous breweries, founded as part of Guerneville’s Korbel Champagne Cellars in 1997 then sold to its original brewer Vinnie Cilurzo and his wife Natalie in 2003. Its Santa Rosa pub is always busy, and each year, people travel from across the nation in hopes of getting some of its triple-hopped Pliny the Younger ale that is only available for two weeks each February.

On October 11, 2018, they opened the doors to their new brewpub! The entire brewery is 85,000 square feet and encompasses beer production for both clean beers and sour barrel-aged beers, administrative offices, a brewpub, outdoor beer garden, gift shop, tasting room/growler fills, and 2 acres of free parking. This increased capacity has allowed them to distribute more draft and bottled beer to markets in which they currently sell as well as open up some new territories within the state of California. The original Downtown Santa Rosa location continues to thrive offering small batch brews and tasty pizza. Vinnie, Natalie and all their dedicated employees are excited to share a beer or two at both breweries with you.
