THE FOUNDING OF NOBLE STEIN BREWING COMPANY
Noble Stein Brewing Company is a craft brewery in Indiana, PA. The brewery is owned and operated by Zack Morrow and Ben Harley.
It all started in a garage.
We had both homebrewed before. Then, one day we brought all of our ideas and recipes together.
We started out using home brew kits in a simple five-gallon kettle, but our excitement and want for more grew rapidly. So, we began using a mini brewing system featuring a 20 gallon hot liquor tank, mash/lauter tun, and boil kettle. With a strategically engineered, gravity-fed brewing system, we began experimenting with multiple varieties of hops, malts, yeasts etc. until our beer recipes were perfect.
It was inevitable that the idea of a brewery would cross our minds one day and, when it did, it felt like a noble idea to pursue.
With several years of collective brewing experience, we decided to start brewing with the intent of bringing Indiana the beer they deserve.
