Seven years ago, Two Road Brewery opened in Stratford. Since that time they have grown to be the 54th largest brand out of 8,000 independent breweries and in the top twenty-five in the USA with 145 employees. Over the years the company has made Two Roads Brewery at 1700 Stratford Avenue a destination, a “beercation” as they called it, with over 150,000 visitors each year not including their Road Jam Concert and Octoberfest where they typically will have over 3,000 people a day. Thursday, Two Roads Brewery, along with Mayor Laura Hoydick and other town and state dignitaries cut the ribbon on “Area Two” a $15 million facility located 100 yards from their main brewery. At Area Two they will be making a rare and unique barrel aged beers. Some of the beers will be aged for two years or more, while other beers will be using wild yeast which they will acquire from the wetlands located on their new grounds. They have been making these unique blends for some time but they did not have the capacity to make them commercially available. Brewmaster and co-founder of Two Roads Phil Markowski will continue working his magic on award-winning beer. He was kind enough to give me a personal tour which I hope to have edited for this weekend.

Too Roads Brewery abre nuevo local

Hace siete años, la cervecería Two Road abrió sus puertas en Stratford. Desde ese momento han crecido hasta ser la 54 marca más grande de 8,000 cervecerías independientes y en los primeros veinticinco en los Estados Unidos con 145 empleados. A lo largo de los años la compañía ha hecho dos carreteras cervecería en 1700 Avenida Stratford un destino, una vacaciones de cerveza como lo llamaron, con más de 150,000 visitantes cada año no incluyendo su Road Jam Concert y Octoberfest donde típicamente tendrán más de 3,000 personas un Día. El jueves, Two Roads Brewery, junto con la alcaldesa Laura Hoydick y otros dignatarios de la ciudad y el estado cortan la cinta en el “área dos” una $15 millones instalación ubicada a 100 yardas de su cervecería principal. En el área dos estarán haciendo una rara y única cerveza de barril envejecido. Algunas de las cervezas se envejece durante dos años o más, mientras que otras cervezas estarán utilizando levadura silvestre que adquirirán de los humedales ubicados en sus nuevos terrenos. Han estado haciendo estas mezclas únicas durante algún tiempo, pero no tenían la capacidad de hacerlos comercialmente disponibles. Brewmaster y co-fundador de dos caminos Phil Markowski continuará trabajando su magia en la galardonada cerveza. Él fue lo suficientemente amable para darme una excursión personal que espero haber editado para este fin de semana.
