Lagunitas IPA
Tony Magee started brewing in December 1992 on his kitchen stove in the West Marin county town of Lagunitas, California. The very next December Tony got his first license to brew, then he began to brew commercially in January 1994. Tony got ejected from this West Marin location in the summer of 1995 because of the septic system’s inability to handle the process. Turns out, when the liquid started rising from the drains, the small town knew who to blame. So Tony moved everything to nearby Petaluma in Sonoma County, where we still are today.
