North Park Beer Co. - USA
It was a long and winding road that brought North Park Beer Co. out of the garage and into the spotlight. Kelsey McNair, our Head Brewer, and Proprietor, arrived in San Diego 20 years ago to live the California dream and design video games with his friends. However, it wasn’t long before his love for cuisine, chemistry, and craft found an outlet in the city’s fledgling independent brewing scene. That exciting new world teemed with bold-flavored beer and inspired talent, and when Kelsey’s homebrewing career began in 2004 its path was nothing short of meteoric. Soon his Hop-Fu! IPA had become the single most award-winning homebrew recipe in history and in the most competitive category -- the American IPA.
