In the heart of their self proclaimed "Sleepy Town" is a new brewery that is hoping to be the catalyst of promoting the community first and quenching a thirst with some delicious beer. We're talking about Hopothecary Ales located in North Reading. We sat down with Steven Garbardi (Co-Founder and Kevin McComiskey (Founding Brewer & Brewmaster) over at their location. This episode focusing on how both Steven and Kevin went from professionals in the medical field to home brewers to now owning and operating a brewery. We also finally discuss what a Dry Stout actually is, we weren't ashamed to ask. Make sure to hop on over to Hopothecary Ales grab a pint and some of there food, both are awesome.


Cheers!
