In 2008 when the economic downturn hit home, Jef and Erin Lewis joined their collective BrewBilt Manufacturing of Grass Valley, designs and builds handmade, fully customized brewing systems for the craft brewing industry. Prior to returning home to Nevada County, Owners Jef and Erin Lewis, were founding partners of a leading brewery manufacturer in Portland, Oregon.
As California’s only manufacturer of American made systems for craft brewers of beer, sake, cider and distilled spirits, BrewBilt equipment is not only the choice of Nevada County breweries, but is building a reputation for craftsmanship, with brew houses being installed throughout the Country. BrewBilt is proud to employ a growing number of fine local craftsmen dedicated to manufacturing exceptional equipment right here in the foothills.
