From bright and hoppy IPAs to crisp lagers and bold, seasonal brews — every pint at Canyon Club is poured with purpose (and a bit of mischief).
With 25 years of professional brewing experience, we are proud to call Christian Kazakoff our Brewmaster. Brewing award-winning beer in the San Francisco Bay Area for the past three decades, Christian’s approach to brewing is based on the idea that beer should be brewed in the same way a Michelin-rated chef prepares a gourmet entrée: Use only the finest ingredients, always keep your equipment pristine, employ no short cuts, follow ‘outside the box’ inspiration, and never release beer for consumption unless it is perfect. As a self-described foodie, Christian’s experience and passion for food and cooking is palpable in every batch of beer he brews.
Christian’s plan for establishing Canyon Club Brewery as a force within the craft beer industry is simple. Brew approachable yet innovative beers that will simultaneously make its drinkers feel at home, but also keep them on their toes. Canyon Club fans will see a variety of IPAs differentiated by hop varieties, traditional and non-traditional lagers, pale ales with an array of malts, and beer styles with different yeast strains. Christian loves using non-traditional ingredients such as seasonal fruits, spices from around the globe, fresh herbs, locally roasted coffee, chocolate, and other fermentable sugars not derived from malt. He believes that innovation within the brewing industry has no bounds and that when you combine experience with inspiration, the possibilities are infinite.
Before joining us at Canyon Club, Christian brewed at Triple Rock Brewery for over ten years and most recently at Iron Springs Brewery for ten years. In addition to his decades of brewing experience, Christian’s many awards include a second place finish for Compulsory Triple IPA at the 2018 Bistro Double IPA Festival, a gold medal for his Sless’ Oatmeal Stout at the 2016 Great American Beer Festival, a Gold Award for Epiphany Red Ale at the 2016 World Beer Cup, and countless others. He holds a Brewing Science and Engineering certification from the American Brewers Guild as well as an Associate Degree in hospitality from City College of San Francisco.
Equal to his passion for brewing, Christian loves engaging with the public about beer, food, and baseball. So, pull up a seat at the bar, enjoy his fantastic beer and chat with one of the best the industry has to offer.

Canyon Club is more than a brewery — it’s a gathering place. A firepit chat. A shared plate. A backyard concert. A toast to good days and better nights.
We believe in the power of showing up — for your friends, your neighbors and your community. Come join the vibe. We’ve got a cold one waiting for you.

Luke was raised in Moraga less than a mile away from Canyon Club Brewery. Luke fell in love with restaurants and hospitality after his first job running the snack shack at Moraga Tennis and Swim Club. He has worked in restaurants ever since, as a general manager in several Marin County restaurants before landing at CCB. To further his knowledge of food and service, Luke lived in Tennessee to learn good ole “Southern Hospitality”. Luke enjoys traveling, eating, and disc golf, with his best friend, his dog Dakota always at his side.
Tyler grew up 30 seconds away from Canyon Club Brewery. He remembers hoping someone would do something with that empty wedge-shaped building one day… Maybe even turn it into a brewery! Well, what do you know…. Tyler was one of the original hires of CCB and has worked his way up from bussing to serving, to managing. Prior to Canyon Club Brewery, he worked for his parent’s catering and culinary arts businesses doing anything from cooking risotto to designing the website, and editing cooking videos. He’s also an avid musician (bass player) who plays in a band named after one of CCB’s beers, Hustle Culture. They rehearse upstairs!
Christian brings three decades of brewing chops to our taps. A perfectionist with a playful side, Christian brews like a chef: no shortcuts, the freshest ingredients, and inspiration drawn from the world around him (and his kitchen)
John Crossley literally grew up across the street from Canyon Club. He started with us in 2019 and has been a pivotal part ever since. He loves beer, fishing, and hiking any trail; but especially, the local ones.
Kevin brings to Canyon Club over 20 years of business ownership experience, project management, and hospitality industry knowledge. Mostly a peace-keeper, often a beer-taster, and always a fan of the connection that beer and brewing have with friends and community. He lives in Lafayette with his wife, three daughters and dog, Walter and would never be indoors if that was an option.
Stephanie is a founding member and manages all aspects of CCB marketing and design. She’s the brains behind everything from our can designs to our baseball hats. She lives in Lafayette with her husband, three daughters, and dog and spends her free time running the area’s beautiful trails, watching scary movies with her kids, and traveling – to beaches only.
A co-founder of the Canyon Club, Nick is a technology executive, California attorney, and tireless problem-solver who has worked with US and international companies for over 20 years to raise funding, develop products, grow revenue, expand operations, and implement strategic goals. A devoted fan of artisanal beers since spending a year in France living up the block from a Belgian beer cafe, Nick lives in Lafayette with his wife and son and loves hiking, reading, and exploring side roads and small towns.
