Queen City Brewery, LLC

Paul Hale, (Brewmaster), Paul Held, and Phil Kaszuba are the Managing Partners of Queen City Brewery, founded in 2012. As long-time friends and home brewers with a fondness for traditional beer styles, QCB represents to us the culmination of nearly 30 years of recipe formulation and research (i.e., beer trips to Europe).

Ben Gostanian is Queen City’s Head Brewer. Ben started with us as an assistant brewer in 2016 and quickly became an integral part of the QCB family. With over 12+ years of brewing experience, Ben is our man behind the malt! When he’s not mashing in and cleaning tanks, Ben enjoys motorcycle trips, gardening, camping, and playing death metal with our tasting room manager, Jason, in their band, Abaddon.
