A new brewery is joining the scene in Fairfield County, Thehour.com reported on October 14.
SoNo Brewing Company has launched its first beer and announced plans for a taproom in 2021, according to a press release.
"We set out to share with the town and the neighboring communities all that is great about SoNo," said Don Trooien, co-founder of SoNo Brewing Company, in the press release. "We see no better way to honor this community than to put a small, simple tribute in the hand of each our customers as they enjoy a cold, carefully crafted local beer."
Trooien and fellow co-founder John Buckman have lined up a whole series of brews that are inspired by "Oyster Town." Upcoming beers include the Switch Tower pale ale and the Flax Hill Porter. The first beer in the series, Water Street Double IPA, is a New England-style DIPA with "a symbiotic collaboration of Citra and Galaxy hops."
According to the press release, the duo are also aiming to expand their product selection to include spiked seltzers and whiskey made with beer.
Its a crowded market with a lot of competition, but we believe we have a brand that local people will get behind and a product that will deliver a taste worthy of its name, said Buckman in the press release.
Additionally, SoNo Brewing Company is aiming at opening its first taproom in South Norwalk in 2021.
SoNo Brewing Company employees did not immediately return Hearst Connecticut Media's request for comment on the opening of their new taproom. The co-founders haven't publicly announced the planned location of the taproom.
The Norwalk-themed brewery would spiritually take the place of Iron Brewing Company, which officially closed this summer after initially shutting its doors in response to the coronavirus outbreak back in March.
