Origins of the basement craftbrewery...

A little over a year ago in February, 2010 an acquaintance said to me "you know, you seem like the kind of person that would brew your own beer".  Me, having no knowledge whatsoever at the time about home brewing began pondering the idea.  After a couple weeks of research and some new found motivation to start a new hobby, I ventured out to the home brew shop and my new dream was born.  Our first batch (pictured below), the A.Man.Cipation Amber Ale turned out fantastically.



A year has gone by and with the help of Mitch, Pat, and Josh, we've effectively brewed over 15 different batches of home brew and have many, many more ideas, styles, and recipes to brew. 

So, these are our stories of home brewing... enjoy.
