The Leadfoot story is a simple one: a lifelong journey of exploring the love of beer all around the world. Research (yes, we consider drinking beer “research”) began in college but continued on to Prague in 1993, tasting original Pilsners in the Motherland. Stops in Germany, Ireland, London and Manchester proved beneficial. Japan and Taiwan left lasting impressions of worldly opinions on our favorite subject matter: fine crafted beers.
The Leadfoot idea became serious in 2013, with a commitment to patience and quality. A painstaking search for a brewery location that would accommodate big dreams and big plans led us back to the start of Brewing in Western Massachusetts. In 2017, planning began for startup at the old Hampden Brewing building in the Willimansett section of Chicopee, all while research continued.
With an opening in May 2019, Leadfoot Brewing’s flagship brews include Leadfoot Lager and Leadfoot Pilsner, as well as a locally sourced Pioneer Valley IPA.
The Leadfoot Family hopes to see you soon at a local event or at our Willimansett Tap Room!
