Brewery Profile

Evans Brewing Co

For visitors exploring Corona’s beer options, this is a production-focused stop with a taproom attached to a larger brewing operation rather than a small barroom built only for pours. Evans Brewing Co. arrived in Corona after ending its lease at its Irvine location in late 2019, moving its full operation into a significantly larger facility. The company’s history reaches back to 1994, when it began operating in Orange County and became one of the older craft breweries in Southern California during that period. Walking in today, visitors find a dedicated taproom with 20 taps, ample seating, and a balcony that looks over the main brewhouse, giving the room a clear connection to the production side.

Travelers in Southern California often look for brewery visits that show both range and context: a chance to try core beers, check for limited or special releases, and see how a brewery presents itself outside packaged beer or distribution. This Corona taproom fits that kind of visit because it gives Evans a direct customer-facing space after many years without one at the previous site. The tap list is the main reason to stop, especially for anyone comparing breweries across the Inland Empire, Orange County, or the wider Los Angeles area. Because specific daily offerings can change, the bar is the place to confirm what is being poured and whether any special releases are available.

The practical draw is straightforward: this is the company’s main Corona facility, with infrastructure built for growth and an annual production capacity of more than 25,000 barrels. The taproom’s 20 taps make it possible to sample across whatever lineup is current, while the seating and balcony give visitors space to linger and watch activity in the brewhouse area. Details such as food service, event schedules, reservations, and hours are not assumed here, so visitors should confirm those directly before making plans. For a beer-focused stop in Corona, the taproom offers the clearest way to experience Evans Brewing Co. at its current home.

Evans Brewing Company began its operational history in 1994, originally establishing itself as one of the oldest craft breweries in Southern California during its tenure in Orange County. Following the conclusion of its lease at the Irvine location in late 2019, the company relocated its entire operation to a significantly larger facility in Corona, California. This move provided the infrastructure necessary for substantial growth, increasing annual production capacity to over 25,000 barrels. The new Corona site features a dedicated taproom, a feature absent from the previous location for 15 years, allowing direct customer interaction and showcasing core and special releases. The taproom is equipped with 20 taps, ample seating, and includes a balcony that provides views overlooking the main brewhouse.
