All About N.E.W. Ales
N.E.W. Ales is a production only (for now) brewery in Middletown, owned and run by Wes and Nikki Heupel along with their friend Beth O’Harra. The brewery hopes to create beer that will especially appeal to folks who might not think they like craft beer (or don’t know yet that they love it) – meaning approachable beers that fit any palate they might encounter.
The brewery is starting small, but has plans to keep growing as they can with a taproom in the pipeline down the road!
