Bristlecone Brewing Co.
In late May 2025, Bristlecone Brewing Co. opened in the spot formerly occupied by IMBIB brewery on Second Street in Reno. The owners are Martin Barman and Matt Garcia and they were some of the brewers with Alibi Ale Works (in Incline Village and Truckee), which stopped brewing its own beer. The two are focusing on having a wide array of beer styles, with an even mix of lagers and ales. And they want to concentrate on making beers that are approachable and easy to drink. Currently, they are open 4 – 10 p.m. Fridays and 1 – 10 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. They plan to open on some weekdays soon.
