Blue Point Brewing Co

Patchogue, NY

Just one sip of Blue Point beer and you’ll find yourself at the boatyard hanging with friends, brewers,
and a few seagulls. That’s because after years of tireless brewing (but mostly drinking – don’t let their
brewers tell you otherwise), Blue Point knows it takes a hometown brew to live up to New York standards.
Though their brewers never stop innovating, one thing has stayed true since 1998: Blue Point is pretty
damn proud to brew beer in a boatyard for the people and place that inspire them every day.

Red Hook

Seattle, WA

In 1981, Redhook founders, Gordon Bowker and Paul Shipman, had a vision to bring Seattle a better beer than the light yellow fizzy stuff that was widely available at the time. Seizing upon the progressive energy of other pioneering Emerald City brands, the two established Seattle’s Redhook Ale Brewery. From modest beginnings in an old transmission shop in the Ballard neighborhood, to a former trolley car barn in Fremont, Redhook has always embodied the spirit of Seattle. After 35 years, Seattle’s Original Craft Brewery is still brewing fresh, innovative craft beers for the new generations of beer lovers.
