SHRED DOG kids, what we enable, is they’re out all day no matter the conditions.”

“Kids that are cold and wet want to quit at lunchtime and go to the lodge and have a hot chocolate. “There’s that old adage: There’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad gear,” said Dietz. The company aims to keep youngsters on the mountain comfortably when conditions are at their worst. We were telling people last year, ‘Hey we’re a first-year brand, but don’t get the idea we have sewing machines in our garage.’ This stuff is made by the best in the business, and we wanted nothing less.” “We don’t want to skimp on construction or quality. “Our goal from day one is we want to build a very premium, high-performance product,” said Dietz. Some of the seam lines and personality of the initial jackets literally was inspired by Squaw,” said Dietz, who sold his home in Tahoe to help get the business off the ground. “We took inspiration from Squaw Valley and the Red Dog lift, and basically the patterns the lift lines make on the mountain. With Moore’s expertise in working with different performance materials, the two launched SHRED DOG, a brand that takes inspiration from the Squaw Kids program, the mountain itself, and nearby Red Dog Chairlift. Then, in the spring of 2017 he ran into Dallas Moore, who had been working the past six years for the high-performance hunting gear company, KUIU. “I was experiencing super expensive gear that, A) often isn’t that good, and, B) the kid outgrows it every single year.”įrom those experiences, Dietz, who’d made a career working in the tech industry in Silicon Valley, began bouncing around the idea of starting his own brand of winter gear designed specifically for children.

The M onterey location has a brewpub with patio seating, dog-friendly beer garden in the back, and a full bar with 20 ASB beers on draft.“One of my favorite things in my life is being a dad, and what goes along with that is doing things outside with my son - biking, kayaking, camping, you name it, but skiing and snowboarding (is) No. Both are not far from each other and the Salinas location has a tasting room.

The head fizzles out quickly, but tiny bubbles, a la champagne, seem to linger in the center.Īlvarado Street Brewing has two locations for brewing: Monterey and Salinas. Shred Red pours a dark amber that seems to glow when held up to the light. It’s been a brewpub staple since it’s conception! Sick label and a killer brew. Don’t sleep on this Red Ale, it’s the first time that Alvarado has canned this righteous brew. The hops-to-malt ratio play well with each other, neither stealing the spotlight. Grab your board and prepare to shred, brah.Īlvarado Street’s Local Shred Red, an American Red Ale, will smack you in your dome with some sick resin and pine notes, thanks to the PNW hops, and a 7.2% ABV.

I live in San Leandro, and a ton of amazing breweries are anywhere from 10 minutes (I am crazy close to Drake’s Brewing & Cleophus Quealy Beer Co) to a few hours away, like Alvarado Street Brewery out of Monterey, California. Living in the Bay Area has some huge perks if you are into craft beer, which let’s be honest – if you are reading this you probably are.
