The Experience, Richmond: East Brother Beer Co Big News

The Experience:

More Tanks. More Beer!

They’ve come a long way since 2017, when they started brewing with just enough tanks to make 620 barrels of beer.

East Brother just added five new 120-barrel fermenters (according to their crew, that’s the equivalent of five swimming pools of beer!) and a new brite tank to store the beer after fermentation. Plus, some new equipment:

  • A cartoner to help them package beer faster
  • A towering new grain silo
  • A centrifuge to make their beer crystal clear
  • And a new floor scrubber to keep everything spotless!

Grab your friends and head down for a  visit. You’ll notice a little more hustle and bustle.and tanks so tall they almost touch the ceiling.. But rest assured, it’s still the same East Brother you know and love, just on a larger scale.

They can’t wait for you to see the progress.

Your favorite food trucks will be rolling in so you can savor some tasty bites while having a pint and surveying the new tanks.  (510) 230-4081.
