## About

Small Change Brewing Company is the husband-and-wife team of Mike Patterson and Emily Vides. It evolved out of a decade of home brewing, a few jobs at Boston-area breweries, and a love of all things beer and brewing. 

We're here because we want to further an appreciation of the beers that we love to drink, styles that too often might be ignored or forgotten in today's beer market.

We don't make a lot of beer, and we don't have our own brewery. By staying small and sharing space with other local brewers, we're able to focus on making the beer that we want to when we want to.

It's our mission to bring you fresh, flavorful beer of the highest quality, regardless of trends.
