Established in 2015.
The creation of Escutcheon Brewing Co. started with the friendship between two guys who really like beer. John Hovermale and Art Major met when John was working to get a different brewery open in Winchester. That brewery didn't work out but their friendship did. Together, pint after pint, they talked often about how they would "do it the right way" if they were to start a brewery of their own.
John, a master brewer, began at the Siebel Institute in Illinois more than fifteen years ago and has worked for breweries in Vermont, Maryland and Mississippi. Art is an accomplished entrepreneur who has founded other successful businesses. And although he hasn't had the same experience brewing, Art feels that he has taken so much beer out of the system that it was time to put some back in. The combination of their backgrounds and experiences, as well as their passion and drive to create good beer, were the perfect ingredients to build Escutcheon Brewing Co.
