Russian River Brewing Co

Russian River Brewing Company was founded in 1997 by Korbel Winery, hiring Vinnie Cilurzo as their brewmaster. In 2003, Korbel closed the brewery and transferred all brand rights, recipes and some equipment to Vinnie and his wife, Natalie. As the new owners of Russian River, they opened their Downtown Santa Rosa brewpub in April, 2004. In 2017, they are breaking ground on their dream brewery not far from the new Oliver’s in Windsor!
