Valiant Brewing Company

Great spot for hanging out. They do a great job of providing a lot of places to sit and relax. I usually go with a flight first to try a bunch of beers then settle on the one I like for the rest of our visit. My wife loves the Golden Lager and I really like the Trappist Style Ale or Mosaic Crescendo. Can’t go wrong with any IPA they have there too.
Solid brews and atmosphere.

My new favorite brewery at the moment. Super relaxed place with plenty of seating. They even have a few TVs along with a projector playing sports games. No sound on, but at least you can check scores while you’re here.
It’s a little hidden… so follow the directions given and turn into the industrial/​warehouse area. Go all the way back and hang a left… you’ll find it.
I feel like you can’t go wrong with any beer selection here. You can always taste something before they pour it, but I recommend a flight the first time you come. I love their Belgian Ale with Elderberries and also the Big Tripel. I’ve also tried the Foamosa, Raspberry Ruckle, and some peach ring beer that was amazing. They have something for every taste bud here, so get a little adventurous!
They also have food trucks posted outside on Friday and Saturday nights, so check the calendar before you go to see if it’s something you’ll enjoy.

I am just getting into the brewery craze and I must say I am really enjoying it! The thing I love about breweries is the atmosphere, very relaxed where you can go with whoever and be able to hold a conversation while drinking great beer and this place was just that.
Valiant is a little tough to find but once you do you wont be disappointed. The staff is super friendly and knows their stuff. My favorite beer of the night was the beer with elderberries (I forgot the name of it) with a 13% alcohol content, it was strong but delicious!
I cant wait to come back here.

Was promised a marshmallow coffee beer by the owner since we couldn’t try it last time we (Brian you didn’t forgot to save us a bottle) Sadly they ran out. Empty promises… but everything else is still amazing! So this place still gets the credits it deserves. amazing flavors, crafted with the finest care.

Definitely a hidden gem. Not easy to find but worth the effort. Great tasting beer, wide selection is why you come. The ambience just works, warehouse chic. 3 large tv screens for Angels, Ducks, etc. Staff is great, very knowledgeable but low key. Always a tasty food truck a few steps out the back door.

Super nice guys! Very hard place to find– we drove up the meter on our Lyft drive because you have to turn in to a warehouse area with no signage, head to the back and find building C. It all looks like industrial or office spaces; grabbing a beer when you get here should be your reward because it’s such a challenge!
I had the chocolate milk stout– absolute deliciousness!
I also had the coconut beer too that was equally amazing.
Definitely a nice little spot to have a drink next to brewery equipment and a forklift ;)

Solid brewery. A little hard to find and very industrial, the tasting room isn’t separated at all. It doesn’t have a lot of personality, though I can see how some people would like seeing the equipment. None of the beers really stood out to me. But I would say the service was great and I enjoyed myself, just didn’t stay very long.

The location is bit difficult to find, but parking is a breeze if you go later in the evening. I arrived on location around 8pm. I can’t recall if I was familiar with them beforehand, but all the selections of the day were unheard of to me, so I guess not!
The space is pretty small and intimate with a few open seats around the silos and bar deck. The beers on tap were projected onto the wall with about five categories of beers: Hoppy, Mellow, Belgian, Sours, Dark. Since I didn’t know what to choose, I decided to go with a flight.
You get an option of five, so I got these:
Peach Ring Sour (Peach Sour)
Foamosa (Session Sour Ale)
Morning Meal (Oatmeal Stout on nitro)
Breakfast Barrel
Chernyy Medved (Russian Imperial Stout).
They are about 4oz pours each, which is pretty nice. You go from right to left and then you end in the middle. The sours were not very sour as I had hoped. The peach was very fruit forward like juice while the Foamosa had some pucker. The stouts were something else though haha. That’s a good thing!
The Morning Meal on nitro was nice — creamy and chocolate-​y, but I couldn’t finish the Chernyy Medved. The Russian Imperial Stout was a bit alcohol forward, but finishes pretty smooth. Since it was the last of the flight, they saved the strongest for last lol. It was a little too much to handle on a weekday, but I wouldn’t mind returning on a weekend.

Great place !! Matt the bartender was very informative and energetic, he took his time to advise us of the beers they had to offer.
Bridget, was delightful to talk to. She helped with the sale of the beer and the food truck!
Tip: use waze to to get there.
Our first time here. Love this place !!

What’s the criterion for a good brewery? Does it have to get your acurum going, when does it hits its crescendo? Perhaps, but it must be… valiant. hands down… the greatest names for a main tap rotation I have ever heard.
Came here a couple nights back and found this spot. This place does not go for frills, some stand up tables and bench tables and that’s about it. The beer does the talking here, and the servers are more than willing to find a beer that fits your tastebuds. The person manning the tap was super friendly and helpful. Yes, he knew a lot about beer, but he did not rub that in my face, something I appreciate.
Check out the acurum, there is a reason that bad boy won some medals. Dark, sweet, yet still a slight hop presence, this one definitely warms you up.
Solid offerings and interpretations of various styles of Belgian and American offerings. Will be back to check out again

They have great beers and a relaxed atmosphere. The coconut imperial stout is delicious and the bartenders are knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend this brewery!

Some really delicious beers are here. I would say that there’s something for everyone. There are sours and Belgians and saison and doppelbock. Really quite good.
The one that stood out is the imperial brown coconut. Breathe in through your mouth and then breathe out you get more coconut.
The location is kinda far and it’s very industrial. You sit in the brewery. Bring a hoodie if you’re here at night.

After you find the place, which is difficult, you won’t be disappointed. Great beers with an expansive selection. Even some of the beers that I don’t normally choose, such as brown ales (coconut brown ale), was very impressive. The Pale Ale was delicious as were the IPAs and wheat beers.
The atmosphere is standard — enough room for a large party and tables for a small group. I would definitely come back here.

Cool tasting room, spacious and plenty of places to sit. A good variety of brews offered, so when I ordered a flight I had some real choices to make. I was surprised with on beer in particular, the coconut cherry black session ale. I loved it and I usually don’t care for a dark beer. I’ll admit there were quite a few beers I liked, mostly because they were brewed with some kind of fruit! Score! The guys behind the counter were super cool and cracked some good jokes anytime I came up to order. They even sell some yummy beef jerky. Check this place out!

One of Orange County’s best breweries, unfortunately positioned on the wrong side of the 57.
I’ve been coming here since it opened, and they continue to produce some of the best beers Orange County has to offer. It honestly blows my mind that Valiant doesn’t get the foot traffic or acclaim of other Orange County breweries, because the beer is just as good or better.
Next time you’re thinking about another brewery, check out the one tucked away on Batavia. You’re in for a treat.

Short: A lower quality brewery tasting room specializing in high-​alcohol ales
Long: A very hard to find brewery tasting room tucked into some construction equipment lots. Follow the very small Valiant signs. Inside you are first guided past a Jesus statue and then through the bathrooms and breakroom to find the brewery tasting room inside the brewhouse. Intense potty smell emanating from the toilets did not help with the beer experience here. A lot of house beers, on tap, about 16 or more. You can do cheap tasting flights of 5 beers and they are nicely labeled via your own tick sheet like ordering a la carte sushi. Beers for the most part were too high abv for style with chemical, harsh palates. A lot had potential, but few if any delivered. Staff was nice. Frankie had his 50^th birthday party inside, so they’ve got that going for them.

This brewery is located in a very random location. Had I not been following some friends who had been here before I would’ve never found it.
Once there, it’s an awesome place to hang out with friends and try different beers. Plenty of seats and lots of friendly folks. They had this 14% beer (forgot the name) that was gnarly! But it tasted pretty good, haha. Would def come back!

I only gave it four stars because the ambiance is so so, not as lively as other breweries I’ve been to in the area. HOWEVER, the beer was phenomenal. I ordered the number 11, Kratos Jr. and it immediately became one of my favorite beers.
This place is hard to find initially, it’s an obscure industrial office space so they should put a sign on Batavia that says Valiant brewery. They have a projector screen and televisions playing the Angels and Ducks games, so you can definitely catch those here as well! I would definitely come back for the beers!

My first time beer tasting with my friends and we checked out Valiant Brewing Company! (I have yet to go wine tasting too but I know I’m living under a rock lol)
It was not as crowded which was why we left the previous brewery and we were serviced immediately. We each ordered a flight of 6 beers from a chalkboard menu of a listed beers by price. I honestly just picked a bunch of random numbers next to the beer names and hoped for the best lol
Upon checking in on Unilocal,you get a $ 1 off your flight of beers so definitely take advantage of that fellow Unilocalers! :)
I really enjoyed the light beers and the dark beers were a bit too bitter for me. I think my fave one is the mimosa one (forgot which number that one was) because it was sweet and tangy.
They have ample seating and a few flat screen TVs with sports playing. The garage sliding door was rolled up so you can soak up some fresh air and sun as you chill and drink beer. Really great spot to relax and catch up. Thanks for a memorable time Valiant. You are quite Valiant haha: D

A great find with a ton of solid beers on tap! We first tried Valiant at the international beer festival and during one of our trips up to OC, we decided it’d be a good idea to stop by!
Mark up your flight and grab a seat at one of the many tables lining the tasting room.
Our favorites: Alpha drive, Kratos Jr, Dos Kratos Jr w/​mango salsa (better bring some tortilla chips), Kratos the Third
Don’t forget: You get $ 1 off a flight with Unilocal check-​in!
