Brewery Profile

Last Call Brewing Co.

In Oakdale’s beer scene, Last Call Brewing Co. represents a small production brewery that grew out of founders Brian Chiara and Josh Garcia’s home-brewing background. The company was established in 2014 and still works on a modest scale, with a 10 BBL brewhouse and seven 10 BBL fermenters in a 1,500 square foot production facility on the periphery of town. For visitors, the public-facing experience is now separate from that original warehouse setting: the taproom has moved to a larger downtown Oakdale location. A guest walking in should expect the retail side of an operating brewery, with the day’s beers available through the taproom rather than a fixed list that can be assumed in advance.

Travelers stopping in this part of California often look for a local beer experience that is easy to fit into a broader itinerary, and Last Call fits that role through variety rather than a single narrow theme. Its production schedule includes light, dark, fruited, and sour offerings, so a group with different preferences may find more than one direction to explore. At the same time, the brewery’s primary focus and production volume are centered on hop-forward styles, making it most relevant for visitors who want to compare pale ales, IPAs, or other hop-driven beers when those are on tap. Because the lineup changes with production, the value of the stop is in checking what is pouring that day.

Practical planning should center on the downtown taproom, not the production facility on the edge of Oakdale. The brewery’s original taproom was inside the warehouse space, but the move to a larger retail venue was made to better serve the local community, so that is the place to confirm current pours and visitor details. Specific amenities such as food service, outside seating, family policies, events, and to-go availability should not be assumed without checking directly with the brewery. Visitors interested in the brewing side can keep the scale in mind: Last Call is not presented as a large regional plant, but as a 10 BBL operation with a compact cellar and a varied rotation. For the most accurate visit, confirm hours and the tap list before arriving.

The Last Call Brewing Company operates a 10 BBL brewhouse supported by seven 10 BBL fermenters within its 1,500 square foot production facility located on the periphery of Oakdale, California. Established in 2014 by founders Brian Chiara and Josh Garcia, the operation began as an expansion of their home-brewing activities. While the initial taproom was housed within the original warehouse space, the retail location has since relocated to a larger venue in downtown Oakdale to better serve the local community. The brewery maintains a diverse production schedule, including light, dark, fruited, and sour offerings, though their primary focus and volume are dedicated to hop-forward styles.
