History
Terry Schmaltz and Mary Theresa Pearl dreamed of opening a brewing in Mary's hometown of Plattsburgh after they both retired as Colonels in the U.S. Army. The initial plan was to break ground on a plot of land overlooking Valcour Island in Peru, NY until hearing of the opportunity to purchase the Old Stone Barracks. In the fall of 2014, Terry and Mary submitted their plan to the Plattsburgh City & Zoning board and puchased the Barracks. The building permit was issued in June of 2015 and renovations began that same day. Today you can enjoy our state of the art electrical, heating, plumbing, and air conditioning which was run through the 200-foot long building in order to set the groundwork for the brewery. Much of the original, undamaged wood flooring was retained and leaving the exposed brickwork and beams allows our customers to appreciate the original structure.
