Lightning Brewery

Poway’s first craft brewery opened in 2006 and quickly earned widespread acclaim for producing phenomenal, top-rated German style lagers and ales. After an extended foray in the world of large-scale production and distribution, Lightning Brewery is now a nano-scale enterprise that produces small-volume artisanal batches covering a wide range of beer types, all of which are brewed with Jim’s signature scientific precision and artistic flare.

Beer aficionados, novices and those in between, journey to Lightning to quaff stellar legacy beers, limited seasonal selections, and whatever Jim’s latest experimental concoction(s) happens to be. Upon finding a new favorite(s), whether you want to share with friends and family or horde for yourself, plan on filling a growler (or two!) to go.  Prost!
