Welcome to Ceria
Our Story
Our love for brewing great beer doesn’t stop at what’s been done before. Beer has always had an essential role in our culture at the center of celebrations, connections and even relaxation. Now we proudly bring an experience both happily familiar and entirely extraordinary with our cannabis beers.
CERIA Brewing Company also brews non-alcohol non-infused beers. If you are looking for or unfamiliar with our NA brews, please go to our NA site at na.ceriabrewing.com
Our Commitment
At CERIA we are committed to quality in everything we do. That’s why we set sky-high standards for our ingredients, our process and for the experience we deliver. We brew only the highest quality beers – always flavorful, always smooth and drinkable – and infuse them with a micro-dose of only the highest quality cannabis. For a reliable experience that lets you enjoy at your own pace, socially and responsibly.
As part of our commitment to a quality experience we request that you consume responsibly. Don’t drink and drive. It’s not safe, it’s not legal, and it’s definitely not worth it.
We’d love to hear about your quality experiences with CERIA THC-infused beers. Hit us back with your thoughts and stories at hello@ceriabrewing.com.
Our Brewing Process
We craft our beers using traditional, proven brewing techniques and high-quality malts, hops and spices for optimal flavor. Once we’ve arrived at the perfect liquid, we take the alcohol out and add the cannabis extract in, carefully metering to get an exact amount of THC in every beer and taking samples constantly to ensure the CERIA you are enjoying is an incredible tasting beer delivering an extraordinary experience every time.

Pre-4/20 Concert at the Hangar Attracts Hundreds
ARVADA, Colorado (April 24, 2019) – There were exhibits honoring the Apollo space program, a Huey helicopter from the Vietnam War, a B1 bomber, even a moon rock on display when Arvada-based CERIA Brewing Company, makers of Colorado’s first THC-infused beer, celebrated its success and said thanks to its consumers at Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum. The free live concert for fans of the craft beer was held on April 18, 2019, just two days before 4/20, the unofficial holiday celebrating marijuana.
Originally introduced at Colorado dispensaries in late December 2018, CERIA (rhymes with “area”) dealcoholized Belgian-style White Ale sold out within its first four hours. It has since become available in 116 dispensaries statewide, with plans to expand to Nevada and California by this fall. “To emphasize our leadership in bringing the magic of cannabis to beer, one of America’s favorite beverages, we came to a former Lowry Air Force Base hangar filled with priceless examples of the country’s leadership in aviation. It was an opportunity to thank our fans for helping make the brand such a great success,” said brewmaster Keith Villa, Ph.D., who, with his wife Jodi, co-founded the brand in January 2018; daughter Catherine is also involved in the company in a sales and marketing position. Villa is the former MillerCoors brewmaster who created Blue Moon, one of the country’s top 20 best-selling beers, according to Beer Marketer’s Insights.

Z-Trip, Joseph Arthur, and Adam Deitch, and the opportunity to sample Grainwave. Discount cards were given to attendees for redemption at Colorado dispensaries.
Since its introduction, news about CERIA has gone viral, with major feature stories appearing in mainstream outlets including CBS News, Chicago Sun-Times, Denver Post, Forbes, New York Times, and USA Today, among others.
CERIA’s Grainwave is brewed as a beer with blood orange peel and coriander, then dealcoholized and infused with a microdosed 5 mg. of fast acting THC that leaves no cannabis flavor. Sixty-four calorie CERIA is currently available in limited edition 10 oz. (296 ml) aluminum bottles and four-pack cartons. A 10 mg. THC IPA, 2.5 mg. THC American Light Lager, and other versions are also in the works. THC is the key psychoactive ingredient from cannabis plants that affects how one feels by creating the unique sensation – the “high” – associated with marijuana.
