COME DRINK WITH US
Just like a traditional British pub, our taproom in Claremont is designed to be the community watering hole: a place for everyone to get together and enjoy each other’s company over a good pint. We typically have about 25 different beers on tap, along with juice boxes for the kids and sodas for the non-drinkers.
TASTING ROOM OPEN

ALL THE DEETS …
When are you open?
The Tasting Room is currently open Tuesdays through Sundays, in the afternoons. Check the banner at the bottom of the page for today's hours..
Are kids allowed?
Yes! We are a family-friendly, all-ages establishment. Bring the kids. Bring grandma. Bring the dog. Everyone is welcome!
Do you serve food?
No, we do not make or serve any food directly. However, we have a food vendor on-site most nights. Check out the Calendar to see who's serving tonight. You are also welcome to bring in any food of your own, or have something delivered.
Can I bring my own wine, beer, or spirits?
No. California liquor laws prohibit any outside alcohol in our brewery. We are only allowed to sell beer manufactured here, and that is all you are allowed to drink here. Unfortunately, this means you can't bring in homebrew, or have a bottle share here, or bring in wine for Grandma. Sorry.
Do you have non-alcoholic options?
Yes, we have several craft sodas available, as well as sparkling and regular water.
What is your growler policy?
First, the industry has mostly moved to “Crowlers” these days: 32oz single-use aluminum cans filled on-demand with the beer of your choice. We always have these available.
But regarding traditional glass growlers, we will always fill a “Claremont Craft Ales“ branded growler, no matter how old the growler is. Just make sure it is in good condition, and has been well rinsed before bringing it in for a refill.
We are also happy to fill any non-branded beer growler, including premium brands like HydroFlask, FiftyFifty, Stanley, and Yeti. It must be a vessel intended for beer, must be in good condition, must be either 32oz or 64oz in volume, and must not have any logos or branding on it from any other brewery, group, or company (other than the vessel manufacturer).
We will NOT fill any growlers that contain branding (including stickers) of any other brewery. It is very important to us that consumers know exactly what they are drinking at all times. If we were to put our beer in someone else's growler, this does a disservice to both breweries and creates potential confusion for the consumer. We take a lot of pride in our beer, and we want it presented and enjoyed in the best possible manner at all times.
Our bartenders reserve the right to refuse to fill any vessel that they deem violates the above rules.
Do you have wi-fi?
Yes, free wi-fi is available in the Tasting Room.
Can I have my party/meeting at CCA? Can I reserve some tables?
We love having birthday parties and group meetings at the brewery, but please reach out to us first (email us). Depending on the day, time, and number of guests, we may be able to set some space aside for you (a reservation fee may apply). Please note that we never rent out the entire brewery during our published opening hours.
How do I buy a shirt, sticker, or hat?
We have a variety of merchandise available for sale in the Tasting Room, including men's and women's shirts, sweatshirts, hats, dog toys, baby onesies, stickers, glassware, and more. Merchandise and gift cards are also available online here. You can check the balance of your gift card here.
Do you sell kegs to private parties?
Yes, kegs are available in 5 and 15.5 gallon sizes for your next party. Prices for small kegs start at $155 and go up depending on the beer. Large kegs start at $260. Extra charges apply to rent a party tap or ice bucket. Not all beers are available for private sale, and reservations are always required (24 hours minimum). A deposit of $100 is required for each keg, and $25 for each tap or tub. Call 909-625-5350 or email us.
Will you donate beer to our event?
We love giving back to our community, and we participate in numerous fundraisers and charitable events every year. Please email us if you would like us to consider donating to your event. We will only consider donation requests for non-profit organizations in the greater LA area.
Where can I find your beer?
The best place to get the beer is always at our Tasting Room. You will find the largest and freshest selection by coming to the source. We typically have 20+ beers on tap, and several varieties of cans to take home.
Our beer is also available at a wide variety of bars, restaurants, and beer stores across Southern California and Arizona, including large chain stores like Total Wine, BevMo, Whole Foods, Sprouts, Vons, and Albertson’s. Feel free to email us for specific options in your area. And if your favorite local spot doesn’t carry CCA, ask them to order it, and help us spread the word!
Can I work/volunteer for you?
First, we do not accept volunteers, interns, or any other form of free labor. We carefully hire the right people for our company, and always pay them a fair wage. If you are interested in joining our team, feel free to email us. We will hold on to your resume and contact you when an appropriate position opens up.
