    Leadfoot Brewing

    Chicopee, Massachusetts, United States

    The Leadfoot story is a simple one. Two friends met in their early college years and shared a love of beer. They each followed their own paths, but during their journeys they continued their research (yes, we consider drinking beer "research"). A trip to Prague in 1993 didn't hurt, tasting original Pilsners in the Motherland was quite an honor. They continued their research as they worked and traveled. Stops in Germany, Ireland, London and Manchester proved beneficial. Stops in Japan and Taiwan left lasting impressions of worldy opinions on their favorite subject matter: fine crafted beers.

    New City Brewery

    Easthampton, Massachusetts, United States

    Established in 2013 in Easthampton, Massachusetts, the specialty of New City Brewery is unique from that of other microbreweries. While we do make and appreciate fine traditional beers, the primary focus of New City Brewery is on reviving alcoholic ginger beer. This lost art of brewing is re-emerging as a craft beverage category, and the alcoholic ginger beer stands out and can stand alone as the crown jewel of New CityΚΌs range of products. Made with the highest quality ingredients, a strong, fresh ginger bite, 8% alcohol, and a unique flavor developed over many years by our Brewmaster, this beverage is the flagship of New City Brewery.
