Ladyface Ale Companie
Cyrena Nouzille wears many boots—Ladyface GM, designer, grain sherpa, foodie, and beer geekess. Call her the instigator. She started home brewing in 1999 when her husband and Ladyface Chief Number Cruncher, Jean-Luc, bought her “the kit” as a random mid-life birthday present. (Little did he know). When a batch of bottle-conditioned Belgian dubbel exploded one summer, Cyrena decided that it might be just as much effort to brew 10 barrels as it was 10 gallons (little did she know), and the dream was born. By 2007, the dream had become a plan. Ladyface Ale Companie opened in the fall of 2009, finding a home at the foot of Ladyface Mountain, in the northwest corner of Los Angeles County. The adjacent brewpub, Ladyface Alehouse & Brasserie, serves globally inspired Ladyface ales, including innovative seasonal and barrel-aged releases. Named a 2011 Best Brewpub by RateBeer.com, Ladyface has quickly become not just a local hangout, but also a destination for beer aficionados.
