Boots Brewing Company, Inc.

Experiences serve to shape lives. So, when thinking of what to name our brewery, and our beers, we thought of different life experiences.  We thought of various travels, former professions, and most importantly friendships. Boots, of differing forms, were usually a common and basic necessity in many of those experiences.

We’re often asked about the story behind our name. Dan served in the Marine Corps. for 8 years. He deployed to Iraq shortly after graduating from Norwich University. On September 14, 2006 he suffered injuries that would bring him back home to recover and find other passions to pursue. That led him to buy a small home brewing kit to pass the time. This small hobby morphed into a home brewing production in his garage for about 10 years. He was encouraged to open a brewery and after several years of planning, Dan took the plunge. Look closely at the boots in our logo; these are Dan’s combat boots from Iraq, the ones that led him to Boots Brewing Company.
