OUR FIRST CUSTOMER
On March 15, 2008, keg distribution began for our friends and owners of local restaurants. Our first paying customers were in the books.
2008
BARREL AGED
Our barrel-aged beer program is launched with Immelman, a luscious high-ABV porter aged in bourbon barrels. Shortly thereafter comes the arrival of Pugachev’s Cobra, our highly-acclaimed barrel-aged Russian Imperial Stout. It heightens our exploration of beer’s far-reaching potential.
2010
EXPANDING HORIZONS
Hangar 24 is named a Top 100-Regional Craft Brewery, and set a new milestone, proudly producing over 15,000 barrels of fresh, delicious beer.
2011
AIRFEST ADVENTURE
Our first expression of our core values – joy, community and adventure – is a soaring success. Part air show, part beer festival, AirFest is now an annual event in Redlands and Lake Havasu City that celebrates flight.
2012
OUR MISSION
We craft beer designed to create joy by gathering people and bringing out stories. We are more committed to this mission than ever before.
TODAY
A HUMBLE BEGINNING
Ben Cook, our founder, started homebrewing while studying biology at Cal State San Bernardino. It was the perfect multi-tiered education for a brewer. Ben used his lab equipment and biology skills to enhance his first homebrew kit. The attention to detail and a commitment to quality began here.
2001
THE FIRST FLIGHT
Aviation is about new adventure, discovery, exploration, exhilarating joy, and limitless freedom. Ben traded fresh, handcrafted beer for flight lessons. Soaring to new heights became a literal and figurative goal.
2003
MASTER BREWER
Ben graduated from the Master Brewers Program at UC Davis, which focuses on brewing science and brewery engineering.
2005
GROUND BREAKING
Construction on the Redlands facility and taproom begins for what ultimately will become Hangar 24 Craft Brewing. It wouldn’t have happened without the help from friends, family and local flyers.
