Tally's Take

Why this matters

California Pass 187. KRCR documented Cedar Crest Brewing beginning operations in Manton in 2015 as the brewing arm of Cedar Crest Vineyards/Winery. Current official social describes the family-owned brewery as temporarily closed, so it is retained as a current canonical brewery with temporary-closure status rather than marked historical.
