O'Meara brothers prepare to open new brewery's doors

LAKEPORT, Calif. After months of construction and preparation, brothers Alex and Tim O'Meara are set to open their new brewery and restaurant this weekend.

O'Meara Bros. Brewing Co., located at 901 Bevins St., will celebrate its grand opening beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 6.

Final preparations were still under way on Monday, as Tim O'Meara discussed the opening against the sound backdrop of power tools.

It seems like construction will never end, he said.

However, the tools at work on Monday were being used to install lights over the business' signage.

That's literally the last thing, he said.

The O'Mearas describe their new venture as a fusion of microbrewery and restaurant, featuring several beers brewed on site and a specially designed menu of pub grub.

Alex, 30, and Tim, 27, grew up in Upper Lake and later moved to the Bay Area to pursue careers.

Tim O'Meara has been a homebrewer for years while his brother has been in business. In recent years they returned home and decided to go into business together.

We've been interested in running a business like this for our whole lives, Tim O'Meara said.
