Napa Valley Brewing Company was founded in 1987 and sits on the grounds of the historic Calistoga Inn. It was the first commercial brewery in Napa County since the end of prohibition in 1933 and one of the pioneers of the craft beer industry.
The original water tower for the property was converted into a 7-barrel gas fired microbrewery that was designed by the renowned Dr. Michael Lewis of UC Davis. We recently completed the construction of an additional fermentation cellar, which allows us to distribute our beer throughout the Napa Valley. After a long day of wine tasting, there's nothing like a cold beer on the patio while dining at the Calistoga Inn.

Nick Bartlett started home-brewing in his parents garage and quickly realized he wanted to brew bigger. He received a brewing education from UC Davis Extension in 2017 and started his professional brewing career in San Francisco, CA at Barebottle Brewing. He then went on to become the Head Brewer of Buck Wild Brewing in Oakland, CA where he won over 10 medals for the beer created there.
Nick's passion is to create the best tasting beer possible. He loves a great, refreshing European lager as well as a clean and aromatic west coast IPA. When he's not at the brewery you can find him hiking up the nearest mountain or traveling to new places with his wife Lori.
