The exterior also includes a new covered service area and silo. The existing ceiling above the shipping container bar and dining room was removed to expose large glulam trusses. New storefront windows in the dining room open up the view of the lake.

The shipping container bar serves both the interior and exterior spaces allowing views through the bar out to the lake.

The octagonal space interior beer garden is topped by a cupola allowing light to pour in from above. A cast-in-place concrete wall topped with glazing separates the brewery from the public allowing the brewing process to be safely observed from the adjacent indoor beer garden. The interior includes a new brewery, interior beer garden, ‘shipping container’ bar, dining room, new kitchen equipment and a tiki bar. The material palette at the beer garden includes decomposed granite and artificial turf ground surfaces, gabion benches, cor-ten steel and a wood fence. Outdoor seating areas also include an existing deck over the lake and an expanded beer garden with stage and kids area. The patio has a new steel and wood framed roof allowing outdoor seating for a larger portion of the year. The project is occupying a 11,000 square foot space adjacent to Roberts Lake and includes extensive outdoor seating areas. Visit us in historic Sonoma County, California.
