## About

About Great Life Brewing Company: Great Life Brewing produces unique, handcrafted beers that reflect the charm and character of the Mid-Hudson valley. Our standard beers- "Juicy Joy IPA", “Classic Milk Stout”, “Classic Witbier”, “Classic IPA” and “Classic Cream Ale”- are all created in very small batches from pure water, barley, hops and yeast and reflect the skill and artistry of over 30 years of brewing experience by our Master Brewer, Patrick Clancy. Great Life beers are crafted by hand in the traditional fashion, are given ample time to mature and condition before packaging, and are each produced in boutique quantities (overall annual production under 1000 barrels).
