E-Malt.com News article: USA, CT: Half Full Brewery opened in Stamford

Half Full Brewery began serving up their initial offering, Half Full Bright Ale, throughout the Stamford area in the beginning of August. The location managed to open its doors to the public for regular tastings and tours just in time for the end of summer, Darien Patch reported on September, 8.

"We have local flavor," said Jordan Giles, "Chief Beer Organizer" for the company. "We're proud to be from this community. We want people from this area to be proud this beer is from here."

The founder and "Chief Beer Philosopher" of the company, Conor Horrigan, had no idea brewing is where he'd end up, but four years ago, he knew he wasn't happy where he was.

Horrigan draw up a business plan and raise some funds. Then Jennifer Muckerman contacted him from St. Louis. With brewing in her blood, she joined the team as brewer and Chief Beer Artist.

Muckerman went to work honing the product that would become the founding Half Full Brewery beer, Bright Ale.

Hall Full is currently only offering their product on draft until they can work out a bottling plan.
