There is a lot of great beer coming out of Chicago these days. We have highlighted Daisy Cutter from Half Acre, as well as Side Kick from Two Brothers. One Chi-town brewery in particular has really warmed a spot in my heart with three special beers. That brewery is Revolution, and as you can see from the picture above we got quite the variety of cans from them which left a lasting impression on the palate.

CARTON BREWING SHIP WRECK PORTER
The lastest film we did for Carton Brewing is live. A year in the making I am happy to say that this project is a wrap and it is one hell of a beer. About a year ago the gang linked up with local Rum importer Brinley’s Gold Ship Wreck. Zach Brinley stopped by the brewery one day with his rum and Augie was really digging on the flavors of it and thought it would be neat to age some of their foundation porter in these rum soaked barrels.

RIVER HORSE BREWING COMPANY
We recently spent some time at the new River Horse facility, working on a film showcasing their digs and talking about the transition from the old building in Lambertville, New Jersey. If you remember our last trip to River Horse, you would know that they had been brewing in their Lambertville location since they opened their doors in 1996. Â Supplying the thirsty cities of New York and Philadelphia, and also satisfying the home market of NJ (and another in Connecticut), River Horse could only do so much at that facility. The decision was made to move on and get a bigger and more comfortable place that they can grow into over the next few years. Continue reading “RIVER HORSE BREWING COMPANY”
YES WE CAN WITH CARTON BREWING COMPANY
Following up on the written article from two weeks ago we are excited to share the film we did with Carton Brewing and Iron Heart Canning. As you may have read Iron Heart is a mobile canning service that has a gypsy nature to it, they roll in their equipment, hook up to bright tanks and make canning magic. Mobile canning is going to become a fast growing segment for the craft beer industry getting small breweries like Carton Brewing into package way ahead of schedule. All around this is a great project for everyone involved and we were happy to document how it all went down. This is our first canning video and we are proud to have done it with our good friends at Carton and look forward to many pint cans of Boat Beer in the future. Enjoy the film and cheers.

FIRST CANNED CRAFT BEER IN JERSEY
Yesterday I had the pleasure of documenting the canning of the first craft beer in New Jersey with Iron Heart Canning. Iron Heart Canning is a new business venture that provides mobile canning solutions helping small breweries to grow their businesses and offer other mediums of serving their beer besides draft and bottles. A lot of breweries are looking into canning as an option these days, draft only breweries like Carton with the help of companies like Iron Heart are able to can up their beer right at the source with no quality sacrificed. I say this because some breweries contract their canning because they don’t have the space for their own line or just cannot afford the system to do so.
