Say bear-lick like a bear licking the foam off a frosty mug. Etymologically, it's an old-english adjective meaning "of barley." As in there's beer and then there's baerlic beer! But feel free to use it whenever you want to describe something that you can't get enough of. As in: "These waffles are baerlic!"

Born out of an undying passion for the perfect pint of beer, Baerlic Brewing Company is a collaborative entity created by us, Ben Parsons and Richard Hall. After years of brewing on the small scale in a basement and winning numerous awards in amateur competitions all over the region, we decided that we should finally give in to the voices in our heads and move toward a small scale production brewery and taproom.

When we say The Beer Here Is Near And Dear, we mean it. We strive to work in as close a proximity as possible for all our ingredients, materials, vendors, supplies, and suppliers. And that allows us to absolutely love the beer that we brew.
