Founder and owner Matt Hess built the brewery around a beer-first approach, initially emphasizing Belgian-inspired and high-gravity ales before developing a broader range that includes West Coast IPA, lager, stout, and an extensive barrel-aging program. Head Brewer Matt Malloy currently leads brewing work alongside Hess, continuing a house style defined by strong beer, experimentation, and carefully managed barrel releases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing Suggestions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServe at 8 to 10 degrees Celsius in a tulip, IPA glass, or stemmed beer glass to concentrate its citrus and pine aromatics while allowing the beer’s strength to open gradually.
