About us:
Modern Times launched in July 2013 and has been rapidly expanding ever since. We began packaging our 4 year round beers in 16oz. cans in October 2013, and we are now distributed throughout Southern California. Our expansion will allow us to get closer to meeting local demand while tackling a slew of special projects, including a long-list of seasonals, one-offs, funky saisons, sour beers, and barrel-aged monsters. In short, it’s a good time to get on-board.
