Justin Catalana

Justin Catalana co-founded Mill Valley Beerworks with his brother Tyler in 2009, then Fort Point Beer Company with his wife Dina Dobkin and brewer Mike Schnebeck in 2014, turning a homebrewing habit into San Francisco's largest independent craft brewery. In 2025, Fort Point merged with Sonoma County's HenHouse Brewing Co. to form Fort Point HenHouse, combining two of the Bay Area's most respected brewing companies under one roof while keeping both brands independent.

Claude, I could use a beer.

Built an integration for my craft brewery so customers can grab a beer while working with an agent. I used Claude Code to build the MCP server as a Rails app with an admin panel that tracks tool usage. It wraps Shopify's MCP with a few brewery specific tools: shipping eligibility, delivery estimates, and beer recommendations. It would be really nice to be able to complete the payment from within the terminal. https://connect.fortpointbeer.com

Claude was able to build this assembly web server and blogging website in about 2 minutes. I've always wanted to learn assembly\! - Justin #asm #messing-around
