Visalia, CA—Long Shot Brewery, a new local brewing establishment, will officially open its doors to the public on May 9th, 2025. Founded by Jesse Jurado, the brewery will offer an eclectic mix of beers, including IPAs, stouts, porters, red ales, seasonal beers, and sours. The grand opening is anticipated to be a key event in the Visalia community, marking the culmination of Jurado’s 28-year journey to open his brewery.
Jurado describes Long Shot Brewery as the “accidental brewery,” reflecting on the unanticipated yet fortuitous path that led to its creation. Jurado has dreamt of opening a brewery for nearly three decades, and after years of preparation, this dream is finally becoming a reality. He notes, “Opening up Long Shot Brewery has been something I’ve wanted to do for the past 28 years, and it feels like a journey that truly lives up to its namesake.”
The brewery will cater to a wide range of tastes, offering an extensive lineup of beers. Jurado’s philosophy behind the brewery’s offerings is rooted in diversity. Whether you prefer the hoppy bitterness of IPAs, the smoothness of stouts and porters, or the tang of sours, Long Shot Brewery will have something for everyone. As Jurado puts it, “IPAs keep the lights on,” emphasizing the continued popularity and demand for this style, even as the brewery explores a variety of other brews.
In addition to beer offerings, Long Shot Brewery will feature wines and artisan pizza, ensuring visitors enjoy a complete selection of beverages in a welcoming atmosphere. The brewery’s grand opening event will introduce the local community to the unique brews carefully crafted by Jurado and his team.
