Rincon Reservation Road Brewery. In 2016, REDCO developed the first Native American owned brewery in Southern California, where beers are brewed on a custom-built system. For consumers, the brewmaster makes a hoppy low-alcohol beer. All batches use quality and local ingredients.

The REDCO brand involves recognition of Rincon’s overall message. The colors and design elements are woven with Luiseno design. Examples of our successful brand can be seen and tasted at the tasting-room located west of Harrah’s Resort. Future plans include craft beer distribution within San Diego county.
