Great beer and always great atmosphere. The food continues to impress as well.

Hands down the best brewery in California!! Plus rich and Bailey give complimentary hugs per every pint you purchase.

Besides being big Veteran and LEO supporters, Crusader has the absolute best tasting beer in the county (at least). Bailey and Richard are awesome and just add that much more to this great establishment.

Really liked this cute brewery; however didn't like the only option was tacos . Overpriced tacos 3/$10. My friend had specifically called earlier in the day and they said they would have the food menu; so much dissatisfied when they didn't... was really looking forward to some of the items. Ordered tacos with one of each meat selection and all the toppings and salsa; when it was brought to me ... it was almost liked they picked whatever they wanted to give me. I ate it cuz i was hungry. The workers; are busy and friendly. If you were a service member or an ems you get a discount ; which was a nice surprise. Loved that they do that: big plus and much appreciated. The back room where the comedy show was; was perfect size and had very good audio. Good comedy show! Would recommend coming here for an event. I didn't get to try the beers; however choices sounded good and everyone who tried them seemed to like them.

I like this place a lot and we go here often as a group and last Sunday I left my sunglasses and I live out of town so I've been trying to call to see if they could hold them for me, unfortunately they never answer the phone and their voice mailbox is always full and cannot take messages.

Crusader makes the best beer in town, hands down. Been coming here since the month they've opened, and a combination of their excellent beer and wonderful staff have kept me coming back since. Can't recommend highly enough.

Really nice place. Friendly and attentive employees. The beer is really good and they seem to have a rotation with new flavors. My favorite is Benediction. They also have a food truck on premises which has really good burgers and hot dogs (I tried both which were delicious). The prices for beer and food are also good for the quality and quantity you're getting. My coworkers like to go on Fridays and I enjoy going because I like to hang out with them and this place has a nice atmosphere. There's a huge back room and outdoor sitting area with plenty of shaded tables too which is great if you are going with a large group. They also have some cool veteran events if you're interested in them. I haven't gone to any but am interested.

Such a chill, relaxed vibe! My husband loves the beer, and he doesn’t love just any beer….Europeans….?

My favorite place to grab a beer and chillax after a good round of tennis with my best friend Rob. Easily one of the best breweries of all time. Even with all the terrible things happening in California, I never get too down or too depressed because I know I can find good beer and good company at Crusader Brewing.

I was really down and depressed from all the urban decay we experience in this beautiful city. I didn’t want to get too down so i went to Crusaders for some uplifting gold. I was talking to a patron and just asking “why is it, i point out these problems and everyone agrees and no one does anything,” and you know what he said?“Words are just words until action actually starts.And actions speak louder than words. But. At the same time, words speak louder than actions because sometimes its the right thing to do.”It was really inspiring. What a great atmosphere. Everyone here was very cool.
