Coronado Brewing Company
Coronado Brewing Company was founded in 1996 by brothers Ron and Rick Chapman as a brewpub on Orange Avenue in their hometown of Coronado, at a time when San Diego County had only a handful of breweries. The original ten-barrel system was followed in 2012 by a production brewery in the Bay Park neighbourhood of San Diego, which now supplies distribution across much of the United States. The company remains family-owned and concentrates on hop-forward West Coast ales, with a smaller range of lagers and wheat beers alongside.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
