The brewery expanded and moved its operations to a larger Mendocino County facility located in Ukiah, California in 1997.

Former New Albion brewers, Jack McAuliffe and Don Barkley, were hired to operate the brewery.

In March 2019, investors and several former employees announced that they had re-started operations and brewed Red Tail Ale and Eye of the Hawk for limited, local distribution.

As part of the acquisition by UB Group, the company owns a brewery in Saratoga Springs, New York, and produces Kingfisher brand beers for the U.S. market.
