Remarkable. Singular. Ridiculously yummy. Delicious vibe, killer location, spectacular ales. That’s a lot of adjectives, but they all apply.

The absolute best beer spot in Santa Cruz :)

I have visited breweries all across the world, and this is one of the most interesting projects I've ever come across. Brad is an insanely knowledgeable brewer, with a phenomenal vision. I wish i could get a membership but alas there is only a wait-list available as of writing. If you get the chance, get your hands on his beer. Exquisite stuff. Brad, thank you for your dedication to the craft, and your pursuit of excellence: you've achieved something truly great with Private Press.

Great beer, the owner was super friendly and accommodating

Great barrel aged beers.

One of the most amazing and innovative breweries in the world.

Truly some of the best, big beers being made, period.

The owner will send you emails and shame you for not spending enough money over the year. He charges for membership but treats you horribly if you aren't able to buy anything after you pay for the membership. It's horrible that a business owner would try to shame a customer for not spending enough money. He never bothered to ask about my circumstances and why I didn't spend more. I paid for the membership so I don't appreciate his effort to shame me.
