Before I tell you what we do and why we do it, I’d like to share the story of how we came across our Creek Monkey name.
From the late 1950’s until 1975, the George Matthews Great London Circus wintered in the Alhambra Valley. Legend has it that while the circus was in town, a number of clever South American Squirrel Monkeys escaped into the surrounding area, found their way into the Alhambra Creek and eventually formed a feral population. Word around town is that people still hear strange cries in the middle of the night and a lucky few have even spotted them. Yeah, it sounds far-fetched, but this is Martinez, a town where stranger things have happened.

"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, ‘It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.’ " - Deep Thoughts, by Jack Handy
