Wells says he hopes the Santa Cruz location will be open by late summer. I’ve been to its Berkeley brewery in a warehouse on Gilman Avenue, and enjoyed a crisp, refreshing pilsner and a fun vibe. Gilman Brewing makes 35 different seasonal and annual beers, ranging from imperial stouts to hazy IPAs, sours, lagers and saisons, and regularly hosts live music, comedy, trivia and other events. Sean Wells, owner and brewer of Gilman Brewing Company, confirmed with me via email that yes, the Berkeley brewery is opening a new tasting room in Midtown.

It just so happens that changes are also coming to the old Tony & Alba’s on Soquel Avenue in Santa Cruz, too.
