Massachusetts Breweries History: Wachusett Brewing Company
Wachusett Brewing Company founders Ned, Kevin, and Peter developed a
significant "appreciation" for beer while attending Worcester Polytechnic
Institute in the late 80's. The three opened the Wachusett Brewing Company in
December 1994 after several happy years of pilot brewing, tasting and planning.
Ned, Kevin, and Peter designed and built most of the equipment used to begin
operations.
WBC is a true Massachusetts microbrewery. Production has grown from
1,800 barrels/year in 1995 to 7,500 barrels/year in 2001. Brews include:
Country Ale, Blueberry, Nut Brown Ale, IPA, Black Shack Porter, Summer Breeze,
Octoberfest, Winter Ale, and Quinn's Irish.
