Beaver Brewing Company – Nanobrewery

It’s been awhile since we have put an update up here but not because there hasn’t been any news…We just got our occupancy permit for the building and construction is done.  Just doing cosmetic work and making the beer.

We are also looking for part-time bartenders, 2-3 days a week, to work at the brewery serving Beaver Brewing Company beer and some great PA Wines.  We are having a few open interview dates within the next few weeks and those will be posted here.  If you are interested check back, or email me at dan@beaverbrewingcompany.com.

Our grand opening date will be posted soon so keep checking back…we hope to be open within the next 5-6 weeks.

I keep telling myself that anything worth a damn takes time and alot of hard work…we have been investing into both of those the last few weeks and are moving along pretty well.  Plumbing, Electrical, Drywall, are done…mostly only cosmetic work, finishing, completing the bar, and setting up the brewery are left.   Here are a few pics of what we have been up to lately.

Next time you drive through Beaver Falls take a look at our new sign!

Slowly but surely we are making more progress at the brewery, the electrical system has been TOTALLY revamped, the walls framed, most of the plumbing is done, and a whole bunch of other odds and ends.

A quick reminder if you are coming in for the CCBC continuing education class this week, it is at our OLD location, 2029 15th Street, in Patterson Twp.  See you then!

Yes, we have the building permit and in a few weeks there will be an honest to God real sign on the new taproom building so things are moving ahead.

Starting to get a taplist together for opening night (hopefully in about 2-3 months from right now), and here is what we are tentatively looking at:

• I.Porter.A
• Basil
• Chamomile Wheat
• Sorghum Pale Ale
• Earthbound Brown – A new very earthy tasting Brown Ale
• Nelson Sauvin
• Kvass
• Citra Sauvin Pale Ale

Things may change but that’s a sneak peak of things to come!

We are still going through the overhauling of the new site but we aren’t creating new things!  Below is a pic of our sampling boards for at the taproom.  Yes, that is the shape of Beaver County.  Pretty much to scale…

Also we are doing test batches of Sorghum based beers.  Sorghum is a gluten-free product that is an alternative to Wheat, Rye, or Barley.  It absolutely has a different taste but we are looking to add something that is easier to digest for some and will add some more uniqueness to our tap lineup!

We are still waiting on the building permit…and waiting…but we are doing some cosmetic work inside.  Here is a pic of the new taproom!

Been awhile since the last update so here we go…

Good news – We have been approved by the state for our Brewery Address Change and for the Brewpub!   We also should be getting our building construction permit within the next few weeks.  That will allow us to make all the plumbing/electrical updates that are needed. Right now there has been some cosmetic stuff…but nothing major yet.

Still waiting on .ome other odds and ends permitting, (you wouldn’t believe how much there is!)

We are also adding a retro gaming lounge which I think will be a pretty awesome hangout.  There are going to be two pinball machines (pics below), a retro bowling arcade machine, and a few other surprises…

Still hope to be open this spring so check back for updates!

In an effort to bring to you the most unique ales in the universe we are planning on some new beers for 2013.   Our first and craziest beer we have taken to “The Lab” is a Quinoa Ale.  Don’t ask when this will come out, it has been a pain in the ass so far.  It will also not be an entirely quinoa (gluten-free) beer.  There will be some barley in there.

We are also working on a fruit beer.  But with a twist.  There will be Blueberry, Raspberry, and probably Peach.  Check back for details on that one.

Also looking to add a Brown Porter and a Biere De Garde.

Check back for updates on the Pub!  Should have some pics up here soon.

This month marked the 2 year anniversary of the Beaver Brewing Company.  We have brewed over 120 batches of beer and made over 30 different types of beer over that span.

Now we are in the process of moving into a new location and expanding transforming from just a brewery to a brewpub / taproom in downtown Beaver Falls.  The goal is to a have fun unpretentious place to grab a pint, meet with some friends and relax.  You’ll soon be able to sit down and enjoy a pint of Beaver Brewing right at the place in which it is brewed!

If all goes well we hope to be open in the early spring of 2013.  The building is currently going under a complete remodel.  Literally the only things left from the old layout will be the walls.  This is going to take some time and I want to make sure it is perfect when we open.

I do want to thank every single person that ever grabbed a growler, picked up a pint, or told someone about the brewery.  Without your help, support, and feedback we would not be taking the plunge and expanding.

I also have alot of hope that this project will  continue to revitalize the downtown area of Beaver Falls and attract more businesses that bring in people from all around the region.  I’m proud to be a part of the effort.

Please check back from time to time, we will still have some beer in local bars (not much but some) and we will adding pics of the progress of the taproom as much as possible.  Thank you again for the support of brewing up this business!

Cheers!
