Description
It all started with a neighbor sharing a homemade beer. Liz saw how excited Jamil was and bought him a Mr. Beer kit for Christmas. Jamil became obsessed with brewing the perfect beer and became a homebrew legend in the process by winning a first-place medal in every known beer, mead, and cider style category. Eventually, his passion to brew was too strong and Jamil and Liz decided to take the plunge and open Heretic Brewing Company.
We started by sharing a building with another brewery in 2011, but we always brewed our beer ourselves. Within the first six months we realized there wasn’t enough space for two breweries in one building, so we began the search for a new place. By 2013, we had built a new, modern brewery in the wonderful city of Fairfield, California and moved all our operations there, including our new distillery.

Tap at the Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours translucent dark gold with a slight white head. Fruity tropical aroma. Medium body. Flavor is juicy, hoppy and bitter. I’m going for some passion fruit. Very tasty.

Spent over six hours getting this venue up and running. Still more things to do. Exciting times at RBS. Beer is lacking something. Good.

Pours clear, dark amber. Medium big, white head. Smell is rather weak. Mild amber malty touch. Taste is full, malty, ambermalts. very mild coffee even. Noticable hoppyness. Decent. Could use more bitter hops though, for a red IPA. Decent american amber, but too weak in terms of hops to be a red IPA.

16 oz can from Homebrewstuff. Thick, syrupy pour, lasting creamy beige cap. Aroma starts with the coconut, then cocoa, then vanilla. Taste adds the milk sugar to sweeten it up, light barrel notes, warmth. Thick, creamy. A liquid boozy mounds bar.

Can. An unclear, pale yellow-golden colored beer with a small white head. Fruity aroma, citrusy, with grapefruit and a pine cone touch. It’s medium bodied, dry and softly carbonated, with a nice bitterness. Grapefruit, pine cones, some resins and a touch of orange in the flavor. Some pale malts. Lasting fruity finish. Easy drinkable, refreshing and quite tasteful, although a tad one dimensional. 191004

Pours a nice black coffee from a can, fair amount of light cream colored head. Roasty aroma and flavor, chocolate and caramel. Good beer.
