Tally's Take
Why this matters
California Pass 187. Official current site confirms an active Belmont craft brewery/tasting room with current 2026 releases and events. Its 11th-anniversary material supports a 2014 origin, corroborated by contemporary/secondary opening history. Beer rows in this pass use current first-party release text where names/specs are visible.
