Brewery updates
celebration of tim
Join us the weekend of November 17, 18 and 19 to Celebrate the Life of Tim Torrez. For those that knew Tim, he was truly a joy to be around and I am honored to have been his friend. He loved to have fun and he most definitely loved helping others to have fun. So to honor him, we are gonna have some fun. Tim held a weekly Fun Shirt Friday at his regular day job, so it seemed appropriate to carry on that tradition here! So please wear your Fun Shirts!!!
Please note this will be all indoors. Instead of a one day outdoor event, I decided to spread it out over the weekend and give everyone a chance to stop by when/if you can, to toast a beer and share some memories!
On Friday November 17 we will be releasing a special beer we brewed up for Tim. Fun Shirt Friday Hazy IPA hopped with Sabro, Azacca and Motueka hops. It will be loaded with tropical and citrus flavors! A portion of all sales of this special beer will be donated to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCan). This includes draft, growlers and cans. Thank you to our awesome beertender Jyoti for creating the sweet can design!

Timothy Patrick Torrez
March 7, 1968 - August 18, 2023
Friends, it is with the heaviest sadness in our hearts we share with you that our dear friend and CRBC Co-Founder, Tim Torrez passed away due to complications from pancreatic cancer.
Tim's battle with cancer was fierce but short. We are stunned and devastated.
Our friend Tim was truly a one of a kind human being with his beautiful heart, generous spirit, want for adventure, and silly fun nature. He had a seemingly effortless gift for happy conversation with the ability to make anyone around him feel comfortable and welcome. To say he will be missed just doesn't capture it. There will be a hole in our hearts without him that won't be filled.
Plans are under way for an evening dedicated to coming together to offer comfort to each other and to remember and honor our friend. It will be announced soon.
Please send your loving healing energy, prayers and positive thoughts to his family as they grieve and begin on the difficult path of healing.
Tim, we find comfort that you are at peace. No words convey the loss of you. You are loved by so many and will live on in the hearts of all you've touched.
We love you so much. Cheers to you friend...May the four winds blow you safely home
Be Kind To Each Other, Hug Your Loved Ones, We are All in this Together.
