I’m just wondering why places like The Bruery/Bruery Terraux, and Stone/Stone Liberty Station are listed as two separate brewers, while places like Green Flash & Green Flash Cellar 3 are the same?
There may be more or better examples, but Terraux and Cellar 3 both seem like a sour/barrel extension of the main brewer. One is separate, one is not.
Personally, I’d like to see everything brewed by a brewer (whether or not they’re in one location) all together, but maybe that’s just me.

In the Case of Stone Liberty Station they have an independent brewer that makes stuff not available at the main Escondido brewery. So yes, they are a separate brewery. Not sure about the others you mentioned, you might have to do some digging.

There plenty of breweries that have more than one brewing location, with one of the locations being primarily used for one-offs/test batches, and the tasting room at that location being the only place you can usually find those beers..

Also, the Liberty Station beers are poured at the normal Stone tasting rooms.

Count me in as thinking this should count as one "brewery."

some Cali admins should know this best. Are there any non-Cali examples of such a split?

Cigar City is a complete and different brewery from the Brewpub. They don’t brew flagship beers at the brewpub or vice-versa. I can’t speak to the airport, as I haven’t been.

Even if they Brewinf different beer, the only reason CC is two separate brewery entries is because one is cider and mead, and one is beer?
Even then, they’re both still Cigar City.

That is a separate entity. The brewpub and air port do not make coder and mead, they have a separate location for this
