San Diego · Small-batch hazy brewery
Hazy, juicy,
gone by Sunday.
We brew soft, hop-saturated hazies in tiny batches and drop something new and experimental every week. Cans are canned fresh and released until they sell out — no warehouse, no leftovers, no second chances.

Nimbus DIPA

Citra and Nelson Sauvin, double dry-hopped. The flagship cloud — soft, heavy, dripping with white grape and tangerine.

Soft Static
Hazy Pale Ale · 5.4%
A lighter everyday haze. Mosaic and Azacca for stone fruit and a clean, pillowy finish. Brewed to drink all weekend.

Overcast: Guava
Fruited Sour · 6.1%
Kettle sour conditioned on real guava puree. Tart, tropical, and a little wild. An experimental one-off — once this batch is gone, the recipe retires.

Release lottery
How allocations actually work.
Limited drops sell out fast, so instead of a midnight rush we run an honest lottery. Enter the drop you want — entering is free and we draw winners at random. No bots, no early-access tiers, no paying to skip the line.
- 1
Enter the lottery
Pick a drop and request your allocation by Thursday at 11:59 pm. Entering is free and does not charge your card. One entry per person, per drop.
- 2
We draw at random
Friday morning we draw winners at random from every valid entry. Allocations are capped per the limit listed on each drop, so more people get cans.

You get a pickup window
Winners get an email with a payment link and a pickup window for the taproom. Pay online, then grab your cans fresh — no line, no scramble.
From the grid
Follow the drops on Instagram.
Our live Instagram grid loads here at launch. Until then, here's where it will sit — follow @cloudformbrewing for can-drop alerts, label art, and behind-the-tank brew days.
About + visit
A tiny brewery built for fresh beer.
Cloudform started in a one-barrel garage system with a stubborn idea: hazy beer is only as good as the day it's packaged. So we kept the batches small, the turnaround short, and the release schedule weekly. Everything we make is brewed, fermented, and canned within walking distance of the taproom you'll drink it in.
The experimental drops are where we play — a guava sour one week, a triple hazy the next. Some become regulars; most are made once and never again. Come early, drink fresh, and bring a friend who needs to be converted to the haze.
