THE WVI WORLD

Then the story returns.

We wanted to make a pilsner worthy of Watsonville—for everyone, from the fields to the offices.

Named for our local airport’s WVI identifier, Watsonville Pilsner brings together Feldblume malt from Admiral Maltings in Alameda, yeast from Berkeley Yeast Labs, and traditional noble hops. It honors the classic pilsner while offering something of its own: a refreshing beer with a medium body and real character.

Come enjoy a pint made for the people who make Watsonville what it is.

What to look for.

Smooth and refreshing with classic German pilsner character. Clean enough to invite another sip, structured enough to stay recognizably WVI.

The Story

Before there was Buena Vista, there were brewing friends helping us get started. 4Eyes provided essential homebrewing equipment that helped launch our journey, and we’ve stayed close ever since. For our fifth anniversary in 2024, we teamed up to bring you a rice lager we’d always loved.

Crisp, with a dry finish, this is a beer for your seafood plate—from salmon, mahi-mahi, and tuna to camarones a la diabla. Our favorite pairing? Baja fish tacos.

A friendship helped start our brewery. This pint is our way of sharing it with you.
