The name Alosta has been around this region for over 125 years. In the late 1800's, while most of the local towns in the area were dry, high-moral standard towns, Alosta was anything but. Alosta was a mostly lawless town, with saloons, brothels, wood-planked sidewalks and shootouts at noon. Everything stereotypical about the Wild West was evident in Alosta.
It was evident to us that Alosta would be the perfect name for a brewery of all things. Aside from the brewery name deriving its name from historical reference, most of our beer names have some historical link as well.
