From the record

Summary

Founded by brothers Bret and Eric Kuhnhenn in the family hardware store, which sold homebrewing supplies before becoming a brewery. Known for the Fourth Dementia old ale.

A summary written during research. The sourced facts are in the sections below.

Tally’s Take

It was a hardware store first. The brothers sold homebrew kits at the counter, started brewing behind it, and eventually the beer took the building. Fourth Dementia is one of the great American old ales and it came out of a shop that sold nails.
