A little background of The Bruery:

The Bruery was found by Patrick Rue in 2008 in Placentia, California and specializes in very dark, barrel-aged high-alcohol beer.  Patrick swore that he would never brew an IPA!  When The Bruery was acquired by a Boston company in 2017, they kept the pledge made by Patrick, but to provide their customers with a wide range of beer choices, they started The Offshoot Beer Co. to brew their IPA's and other lighter beer.
