Selin's Grove Brewing

We started out in 1996 with a tiny, 'frankenstein' 3 bbl system, as authorLew Byson described it. The wholeoperation was squeezed into a 9 by 13 foot room in the basement of the mansion. There we toiled away & made some incredible beers...but just not enough. In 2003 we started renovations on our 4 bay 1930s cement block garage and by August of 2004 we started brewing. The 7bbl direct fired brew house we used from 2004-2009 came second hand from Avery Brewing in Colorado. The remainder of our equipment we picked up ourselves in  Pittsburgh from  the Foundry in the Strip District. Over the past five years we added several 8.5 bbl tanks and over the period of 2008-2009 replaced the mash tun and kettle larger equipment, our mash tun was made in Canada and our new Kettle was made in western Pa. These bigger vessels allow us a little more room to brew bigger beers in biggerbatches...with fewer headaches.
