About New Glarus Brewing:

New Glarus Brewing Company wasted no time establishing itself as a world class operation. In 1992, Daniel Carey passed the Diploma Master Brewer's Exam at the Institute of Brewing, London. Deb Carey raised the capital for the start-up as a gift to her husband, establishing herself as the first woman to found and operate a brewery in the United States.

Dan and Deb Carey converted an abandoned warehouse into New Glarus Brewing Company's original Riverside Brewery. The first barrels rolled out in November of 1993 - the fastest micro brewery start-up ever. Daniel and Deb successfully combine their business management and brewing professionalism with their philosophy based on individuality, cooperation, and use of 100% natural ingredients to produce world class, hand-crafted beers.
