The BREWERY
We started out in 1996 with a tiny, 'frankenstein' 3 bbl system as
authorLew Byson described it. The whole operation was squeezed into a
9 by 13 foot room in the basement of the mansion. There we toiled
away & made some incredible beers...but just not enough.
We would come back from our annual week long vacation to a near
empty line up and angry staff & customers.
In 2003 we started renovations on our 4 bay 1930s cement block
garage and by August of 2004 we started brewing. The 7 bbl direct fired
brew house we used from 2004-2009 came second hand from Avery
Brewing in Colorado. The remainder of our equipment we picked up
ourselves in  Pittsburgh from the Foundry in the Strip District.
Over the past five years we added several 8.5 bbl tanks and over the
period of 2008-2009 replaced the mash tun and kettle with like sized
equipment, our mash tun was made in Canada and our new Kettle was
made in western Pa. These bigger vessels allow us a little more room to
brew bigger beers in bigger batches with fewer headaches.

Our Brewing History

Steve started home brewing in 1985 and Heather joined him in 1991.
Many of their award winning home brews were made in a lobsterman's
shack without running water & only a wood stove for heat on the
beautiful coast of Maine while working at an Inn.
In 1993 they moved to Colorado and started on the bottling line at
New Belgium Brewing Co., they joined the company during a period of
tremendous growth and quickly moved through a variety of positions
absorbing every bit of knowledge along the way. After two years,  as
they had planned, they moved to central Pa. to scout out a location for
their dream of a brew-pub.
I'll add more later... but for now, almost twelve years and three kids
later.... I can't believe how time has flown!
Hoppy SUMMER!
