Brewery

Bootlegger’s was founded in 2008 at 401 S Richman Ave in Fullerton with a combined tasting room and brewery. In 2012, Bootlegger’s moved its production to a new, larger brewing facility, also in Fullerton. Aaron Barkenhagen has stated plans to quadruple production with the new facility. As of 2012, Bootlegger’s Brewery’s tasting room remains at the original location while the brewery develops a new tasting room in Downtown Fullerton.
