Craft beer, food, and live music rooted in Mammoth Lakes!

About Us​

At Distant Brewing, we’re all about creating a place people want to come back to. Whether you’re rolling in after a day on the mountain or meeting up with friends, you’ll find a lineup of fresh craft beer, a full kitchen, and a welcoming atmosphere that feels like home.

Originally from the land of beers (San Diego), brothers Drew and Kirk Wallace have turned their dreams of brewing amazing beers into a reality here at Distant Brewing.  Armed with years of homebrewing experience and a hint of marketing know-how, the brothers turned an old Police Station into a unique brewery with tons of charm and allure.  

Distant Brewing started construction in November of 2018 and opened to the public for the first time on December 23rd, 2019.  Finally in a space where the brothers could create new and exciting beers, Distant focuses on bringing a distinctive collection of beverages, food and good vibes to the west coast and Eastern Sierras with hopes to become one of the best breweries in Mammoth Lakes!

  • The Bodleys LIVE!

    Distant Brewing 568 Old Mammoth Road, Mammoth Lakes, CA, United States

    The Bodleys, an acoustic ensemble based in Long Beach, CA, will continue its 10-year association with Distant Brewing/Black Doubt Brewing Company with a 6:00 – 9:00 P.M. performance on Sunday, August 31, 2025.

    Over the years, The Bodleys have fronted both quartet and trio configurations in Mammoth Lakes, yet their eclectic set of blues, country, folk, and rock has remained a constant. Sweet and savory tunes by Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Tom Petty, Jethro Tull, and the Beatles among others are seasoned with dashes of The Cure, Stick Figure, and the LBC’s Sublime – all featuring the awe-inspiring fiddle of Ash St. Pierre. The rhythm section includes Wasyl Bodnar on guitar, Justice Ford on bass, and John Stradley on percussion. Multi-instrumentalist and lead guitarist Mat Summers has traded blistering call and response leads with St. Pierre now and then over the past decade.

    The Bodleys are honored to continue their longtime association with Distant Brewing, and look forward to bringing their vibe to patrons and staff once again on the Labor Day weekend. Additional information on this and other potential Labor Day weekend performances in the Mammoth Lakes area can be found above on the “Upcoming Performances” link. -TB
