About the Brewery: Chris Reigrut and Chris Garner, owners of Halfpenny Brewing Company, have been best friends since high school and share a love of beer that goes back almost as far. Chris Reigrut grew up in Germany, mostly in Bavaria, an area steeped in brewing tradition. Chris Garner’s great-grandfather was a brewer and distiller in Pennsylvania. The two of them have been homebrewing together since 1996–first in 5 gallon batches, and then moving up to a half- barrel all-grain system when they found that after fulfilling the requests of thirsty friends, neighbors and family they were barely ending up with a six-pack a piece! After many years of dreaming about opening a brewery “someday,” they realized in 2014 that they had a brief window of opportunity between their respective families’ college tuition needs and began planning to “turn pro.” After almost two years, dozens of locations scouted, and thousands of hours of construction they have opened the doors to Halfpenny Brewing Company in 2016.
