Old Planters Brewing

Old Planters Brewing Co. was built on a love for creating hop forward ales. In 2014, two friends, Matt Sullivan and Ben Garry created a licensed brewery in the cellar of their home. They named the brewery after the Old Planters, the founding fathers of Beverly, Massachusetts. It was a way to pay homage to the city where the two friends grew up and to poke fun at their lifelong residency as “townies”. It was also created as a reminder to remain true to a vision and always be open to exploring uncharted territories. A reminder to stay rooted in classic brewing technique, and to be open to innovation and experimentation.
