Harvest from the Hood Available briefly following each autumn's urban hop harvest. Harvest from the Hood is a true fresh-hopped ale with a deep auburn color and vibrant hop aroma. This annual brew is worth its weight in hops. Enjoy the flowers of our labor and see what the "hood" is buzzing about. Brewed with select hops grown by Philadelphia Brewing Co and Greensgrow Farms.
Winter Wünder Available Mid-November. Winter Wünder is the perfect wassailing ale,brewed with a goodly amount of traditional holiday fare - plums, dates, cinnamon, allspice, clove, and a sprinkle of ginger all combine to lift your spirits and warm your demeanor. Winter Wünder is best enjoyed with the warmth of a good tavern, in the clutch of good friends, new or old. Winter doesn't seem so long after all.
Shackamaximum Available Mid-December. In 1682 William Penn signed a treaty with the Native American leaders of the Shackamaxon village, which later became the district of Kensington, where our brewery is located today. This is a rich, dark brew made with chocolate and Munich malts and aged on French oak. We hope you enjoy sipping on this full bodied imperial stout.
Kilty Pleasure Available Mid-January. Kilty Pleasure Scotch Ale exhibits a subtle aroma of vanilla and boasts a rich six-malt body, tempered by heather and hops.

A Little History About Our Brewery -
Our brewery was originally built in 1885 by the Weisbrod & Hess Oriental Brewing Company. Weisbrod & Hess operated on the site until 1939. Brewing of beer ceased at the facility until we purchased the property in 2001. Years of extensive renovations has resulted in a beautifully restored 19th century brewing facility.
The brewery is open Monday through Friday 10-6 and Saturdays 11-5. Free tours are conducted on Saturdays from noon to 3pm.
