A new Brewery has just decended the birth canal!

Posted By Jason on February 12, 2010

I see the crown….oh my..it’s a handsome son of a gun, isn’t it?!

My beautiful baby has finally been delivered. I got word from the Fed’s at 12:28pm on February 5 that we are in business. The PLCB called me at 10:25am on February 11 to let me know the license is in the mail.

We wasted no time making arrangements with Scott (Penn Beer-our wholesaler) to start selling next Thursday.

Fortuitously, we have 2 beers to offer right now..our Belfast Black smoked porter and our Imperial Red Ale (IRA). I’m transfering the IRA to carbonate today and the wife and I are kegging it this Sunday.

The Blefast black is rich, medium bodied and moderately hoped with East Kent Goldings. It has a faint smokiness (which has-sadly- faded since it’s been in the keg 2 months) reminiscent of bacon.

The IRA is aggressively hopped with Amarillo and Cascade. It starts life @1.075 and finished dry (thanks to good old cane sugar). It has burnt orange reddish color that is absolutely stunning.

I’m spoke with amazing homebrewer Kevin Harbusky on Thursday about a collaboration brew. Plans are in the works for Kevin to help us with our Spring Seasonal- Saison de Jason-( i really hope i come up with a better name by the time this beer drops :) .

The next step is getting our labels approved..another Federal process. until then, we are draft only. look out for our awesome handmade tap handles0custom made by Erie legend Bob Jensen.

Now that’s we’re legal…I’m proud to show off our first label..designed by Erieite Jonathan Molnar.

Belfast Black label

Some ideas we’re planning.. a chocolate and beer festival for this Fall.

A community brew day..come down and clean up after me…I mean help me brew.

A collaboration brew with a celebrity..guess which one?

Until we see you again…slainte
