Since then, we’ve brewed more than 100 different styles of beer, opened a small-batch distillery for vodka, whiskey, rum and other spirits, served up eleventy-billion French fries, invented Firkin Curling, struck out Chase Utley at the Pint Size Park, won a bunch of awards, and hung out with tons of really cool people. On December 15, 1995, Eileen and Trip Ruvane opened Barley Creek Brewing Company, the first microbrewery in the Pocono Mountains since Prohibition.
