THE BIB STORY

The BIB Story started with a couple of friends who enjoyed beer and began experimenting with home brewing. These friends found out that they enjoyed brewing, and soon discovered that they could make a good brew. Something a little different, a little unique. They expanded their skills, along with their palates, and over the last several years developed the recipes that served as the foundation for BIB’s Flagship brews.

In January 2016, Michael Elliott and Rich Castle decided to take it a step further and formed Buggs Island Brewing Company, LLC. Then they set off on the long journey of completing the permitting process, scaling up to a commercial system, renovating a tap room, and blah, blah, blah… All the behind the scenes WORK that goes into creating and serving awesome beer. Which is really what it’s all about.

BIB quietly opened its doors on April 7, 2017, forgoing traditional advertising and relying only on social media, word of mouth, and a tiny, neon OPEN sign to get the message out. The message was graciously received, and thirsty people arrived!
