Meet New Glory Craft Brewery: Built From Nothing, Brewing Something Great

Some breweries are built on business plans. New Glory Craft Brewery out of Sacramento, CA was built on something more personal: a cross-cultural love story, a pursuit of the American Dream, and the kind of grit that only comes from starting with nothing and refusing to quit. Today, New Glory is one of Sacramento's leading craft breweries and they're bringing that same energy to the 2026 Tahoe Brewfest.

Who They Are

New Glory is a big brewery with an employee-driven culture at its core. Vibrant, eccentric, and creative, they've grown through teamwork and a genuine belief that something great can be built from scratch. Walk into their taproom and you'll be greeted with good beer and friendly faces, simple as that.

Right now they're deep into a hero-themed West Coast IPA series, and if their can art is any indication, they're having a lot of fun with it. They want you to remember who they are long after the last sip, and their artwork makes that easy.

What They're Pouring

New Glory's bringing Gummy Worms Hazy Pale Ale: The flagship and fan favorite. Juicy, crisp, and exactly as fun as the name suggests. If you've never tried a New Glory beer, this is your starting point.

Keep an eye out at their booth too. They hinted at possibly bringing something limited or exclusive to the fest, so it's worth asking when you stop by.

A Style Worth More Respect

Ask New Glory what beer style deserves more attention right now and they'll say barleywines without hesitation. Rich, complex, and wildly under-appreciated. They've got a point.

Why Tahoe Brewfest

New Glory is a Sacramento staple, but Tahoe Brewfest gives them a chance to get in front of a crowd that travels in from all over. For a brewery that puts so much into their brand identity and can art, an event like this is a natural fit. They're here to make new fans and leave an impression that sticks well beyond August 29th.

See you at their booth on August 29th. 🍺
