In this episode we visit The Alchemist's brand new brewing facility in Stowe, Vermont.
Known for Heady Topper and Focal Banger, two of the highest rated IPA's in the world, we find out the how owners John Kimmich and Jen Kimmich got their start.
They've had quite a journey to get where they are today, and in this extended episode we explore their brewing history and how they managed to beat a battle with mother nature and turn The Alchemist into a brewery that has set trends throughout the industry. From humble beginnings to world class winnings, this is The Alchemist Brewery.

For the past few years I've made a yearly trek to VT to get Heady and a few other beers. This year will be special. To be able to visit the brewery is awesome! I understand that Heady isn't actually brewed there, but it's going to great to be able to try some of their other beers. My mouth is actually watering in anticipation of my visit, lol.

@BreweryShow 7 жыл бұрын

Heady is brewed at the Waterbury cannery/brewery and sold at the Stowe brewery, seen within this episode. It's a great trek to make, yearly, daily, or whenever you can. Hope you enjoy your next visit there!

@ryangregohara Жыл бұрын

Was there. I feel like the HT taste has changed…not quite as bitter as it once was. New Coke situation? Also the brewery itself wasn’t that enjoyable…it wasn’t chill; no dogs allowed, struck rules around where you could drink (couldn’t buy cans and drink outside)…just lots of dumb rules compared to many other breweries in VT and beyond. All that said, still good beer and worth checking out.

@hopdemon1027 10 ай бұрын

They wouldn’t let you buy cans? They have cans on the website to go!
