Twin Rivers Brewing Co.

Decades ago, my mother gave me one of the greatest birthday gifts I've ever received. It was a home brewing kit. This sparked a new passion for me, as I soon understood that there was a purpose for good, craft beer. I realized that beer could pair well with certain foods that might not pair that well with wines, such as spicy food, fried foods, smoky barbecues, etc. Thus was born a quest to create quality craft beers utilizing my culinary knowledge.
When the opportunity arose for me to purchase what was to become Adam's Bistro, there was a small four-barrel brewery next door. Needless to say, this was a dream come true. The previous owner, Tim Kovach, worked diligently with me every week, teaching me the ins and outs of his personal brewery. After six months under Tim's guidance, I felt ready to venture on my own, but kept the original Twin Rivers Brewing Company name. I spent the next few years refining recipes, streamlining production, updating equipment, building a walk-in cooler for our kegs, purchasing an additional fermenter, experimenting with various grains and hops, propagating our own yeast, etc. It was a true labor of love.
I applied the same philosophy to beer brewing that I use for cooking. I focused on purity of flavor, aroma, visual appeal, and keeping a recipe true to it's name. If I brewed a Pale Ale, I wanted to brew a beautiful, clean, sessionable Pale Ale. The same principle applied to saisons, stouts, IPAs and other beers.
What started out as a four-barrel, once a month brew, rapidly grew to 16 barrels per month. In three years, our production quadrupled, and we still struggle to meet demands. Through years of refinement, we now have a half dozen staple beers, with another dozen variety of beers we release throughout the year, pairing them with the seasonal changes in our food menu.
