Live & Drink Off The Beaten Path
About Us
Secret Trail Brewing Company is an artisan craft brewery located in Chico, California.
Secret Trail is the dream of Charlie and Michelle Barrett. Charlie had been an avid home-brewer since the early 1990s, with the intention of opening his own brewery one day. With the love, help, and support of his amazing wife, a few investors, and plenty of hard work, Charlie finally achieved this dream when Secret Trail Brewing Company opened to a thirsty public in November of 2017. The beers and good times have been flowing ever since!
