 California Beer History Fact:
 

In the mid-1970s, Navy veteran and engineer Jack McAuliffe founded the first microbrewery in the United States at the wine country town of Sonoma.  Called New Albion Brewery , its brews were flavorful and sometimes experimental.  Its brewers pioneered what we might call today America's artisan style.  While it only lasted until 1972, New Albion's creativity inspired a generation of prospective California craft brewers.

 

 

California Surfing History Fact:

first light-weight surfboard.
