USA, NJ: Bull N Bear brewery officially opens in downtown Summit
A new brewery has opened in North Jersey, the Mahwah-Ramsey Daily Voice reported on December 18.
Bull N Bear officially opened earlier this month in downtown Summit.
A craving for pumpkin ale prompted founder and owner Will Dodge to start brewing at home in April 2014. After forming a friendship with head brewer Mike Formisano, the idea of a brewery came to life.
Formisano has been brewing professionally for nine years. He won 80 awards for 20 different styles between 2010 and 2014, including a National Homebrew Competition Gold Medal, the largest brewing competition in the world, and a Silver Medal in the Great American Beer Festival Pro-Am Competition.
The 10-barrel brewery has outdoor seating and is open Tuesday through Sunday.
