Cerveceria del Pueblo
Cervecería Del Pueblo (meaning "Brewery of the People") is a Colombian-inspired craft brewery in Pasadena, California, founded by Martin Quinones, known for unique beers using South American ingredients like yerba mate, cacao, and tropical fruits in refreshing lagers and ales, offering a vibrant, family-friendly atmosphere with cultural events, food trucks, and a welcoming vibe celebrating community and exploration. They aim to create an inclusive space for everyone, blending traditional brewing with exotic flavors, providing a genuine taste of South American culture through craft beer.
MARTIN QUINONES
Martin Quinones seemed destined to open a craft brewery. Born and raised in Bogota, Colombia, he moved to L.A. for film school and spent 14 years as a sound editor — brewing beer at home was just a hobby. After losing his passion for sound editing, Quinones realized craft beer was his true love.
Now, Quinones aims to bring new cultures to his patrons through the South American ingredients he brews with — like Colombian coffee, Argentinian yerba mate, Peruvian quinoa, and Ecuadorian cacao. His brewery also hosts comedy nights, paint classes, open mics, musical bingo, trivia, and run club meetups. As explained by Cerveceria Del Pueblo’s manifesto, it’s about building a sense of community.
