USA, IL: Recess Brewing opens in Edwardsville

Recess Brewing opened in Edwardsville, riverfronttimes.com reported on December, 2.

It comes from former teacher and homebrewer Matt Flach, who grew up in Edwardsville, Illinois.

Recess Brewing will have four year-round brews: the Traitor extra special bitter; 2211 IPA; Four Square American brown; and the Pedagogical session porter. Recess also plans to have a few rotating seasonal and specialty beers.

Perhaps the most unique aspect of the new brewery is its CSB program. It's not CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), but rather Community Supported Brewery. Instead of receiving monthly loot from the farmers' market, you'll pay a yearly fee and get growlers from Recess every month. There are only 150 CSB spots available, ranging from $200 to $400 a year.
