E-Malt.com News article: USA, CT: New brewery ready to open in downtown Middleton

Kenan and Kenneth Porter are confident the Heritage Trail will be well-travelled by thirsty tourists on the stretch that goes through Middletown. On Cottage Street, Middletown, in a building that formerly housed the Clemson Bros. hacksaw company, their craft brewery is coming to life, The Epoch Times reported on June 23.

Clemson Bros. Brewery does not expect in the near future to rival the Brooklyn Brewery, a dominant craft brewery in New York. But Kenan Porter has big plans for the buildings he owns in downtown Middletown.

In 2014 the Porters’ Heritage Restoration Properties LLC bought the facility and several nearby buildings. Father Kenneth and son Kenan are now renovating the site into a craft brewery. Kenan Porter says he expects to open the brewery sometime before the end of the summer.
