Boulder Creek Brewery and Cafe

Dear Friends and neighbors ,

Bill Savage passed away at the end of this summer .

He was fondly referred to as “the Legend”.
I can still see him dancing in my mind’s eye.

He helped manage the front house of the brewery for many years.

He was loved and admired.

Keep dancing brother !

He was a knight of Camelot.

It's with sad news that I share we lost Brent Wilson this week. Brent worked at the brewery for many years. He was a Boulder Creek original. Brent was a kind and loving spirit. He started working for the brewery in Highschool. He continued helping the brewery for many years. He was a loved part of the brewery family. Deepest condolences to the Wilson family and his partner Jackie.

I'm sad to report that that Nancy Long passed away last night.
I'm told it was a heart attack.
Co-founder of the Boulder Creek Brewery.
No other details at this time.
She was a dear and loyal friend to many.

13040 Highway 9 commercial lot for sale $199,000.00

Lot for sale with building plans approved for a 7,000 sq repair with main floor, full basement and mezzanine.
Zoned as C-4 service / commerical . And written in the town plan as a brewery and restaurant.
Could also have many other less intensive uses.
This was the location of the Boulder Creek Brewery from 1989 to 2015.

The building was destroyed by fire in 2015.
It's gutted on the inside. The poured in place concrete walls are still standing.

Fire repair permits have been paid for ($20,000) & issued by the county of Santa Cruz. And have been extended through April 2018.
However, the seismic upgrades as engineered are cost prohibitive.
The County is amenable to make complete engineering changes to the plans without requiring re-submission through zoning.
This does mean tossing out $40,000 in engineering. But, in cost analysis this is likely necessary.
Property could also be rebuilt with a smaller footprint. Lowering the build cost.

The property has an upgraded alternative septic system. With approved use of 1200 gallons of water per day.
The Septic system, tanks, grease trap and treatment system were installed in 2004. At cost of $145,000 .

Please be responsible with questions.
This is for the purchase of the commercial real estate lot only.

No equipment is included or available
No licenses. No business property.

Former Boulder Creek Brewery location. Existing building had a fire and now is a shell with repair building permits and plans available for review. Excellent opportunity!
