Alvarado Street Brewery
Alvarado Street Brewery was founded by father-son duo John and J.C. Hill in March 2014. What started as a neighborhood brewery restaurant in Downtown Monterey has evolved into three locations dedicated to serving Monterey County’s locals and visitors alike. Our production brewery & tasting room opened in the Spreckels Junction area of Salinas in 2016. In early 2018, we opened our R&D pilot brewery and bistro in Carmel-by-the-Sea, known as the “Stro.”

Two forces coming together to build a community; to build a club. Beer and soccer have long been a common thread that brings people together with all backgrounds and walks of life. Alvarado Street Brewery is proud to partner with Monterey Bay F.C. to craft this electrifying (extra) pale ale to celebrate the world’s game, and our home’s professional football club — jam packed with juicy, tropical Nelson Sauvin hops and a crisp, refreshing finish.
4x420
West Coast Malt Liquor
Being a Malt Liquor, this is a high gravity beer that combines the drinkability of a lager with the high impact hop character of an IPA, a real hardbody! It provides all of the brawn without any of the bulk. Its muscular ABV, and taught body are purpose built to unleash the resinous rampage of pine, sticky flower and citrus extracted from a high-output three stage dry hop
The Way of The Buffalo
West Coast IPA
This old school West Coast IPA was layered with crystal malt to add a hint of caramel sweetness and body to balance out the intense resinous pine of Centennial, and the earthy grassiness of Amarillo.
Double Dank Shake
DIPA
We’ve loaded up the 2022 edition with Simcoe, Galaxy, Waimea & Zeus to bring the dank fire and set the stage for “Northern Lights” terpenes. The result is surprisingly a bright citrus and perfumey honeydew melon character, pairing perfectly with added creaminess from milk sugar and raw oats in the grist.
Biggie Pops!
Smoothie Beer
This monster smoothie beer is a fusion of our Super Pops with their legendary Biggie series, resulting in a beer packed with blueberry, banana, lemon, and vanilla goodness. It's smooth, it's fruity, it's everything you've ever dreamed of in a beer.
Double Howzit Punch
Imperial Sour Ale
Everything that you know and love about our classic POG juice, but with the volume turned way up!! It is crammed to the brim with tropical fruit flavor, but still manages to be impeccably- or should we say- dangerously, well balanced. An unapologetic imperial vacation in a can. Should we brew Double Howzit more?! Let us know
Age of Aerostar
Hazy DIPA
A crater-full of progressive hops and hop products including lupulin concentrated @haas_hops Incognito during fermentation along with Cryo Pop from @yakimachief. These two, in concert with Galaxy and Strata weave a foundation of peach, pineapple and strawberry flavors. Restrained hop bite, an uber-soft mouthfeel and a nostalgia of the holiday road.
Mai Tai: White Label
WC DIPA
A true West Coast Double IPA that’s the culmination of Mosaic, through a variety of progressive hopping techniques and hop products. "Tropical" doesn't do it justice - all the passionfruit, mango, and guava notes with a heavy blueberry and white wine-like grape presence permeate with each sip, backed by moderate bitterness and an ultra-dry finish.
