Through the Valley

GROUNDED ROOTS. OPEN WATERS. Sloop Brewing Co. has been rooted in the craft and tradition of brewing since its inception in 2011. Justin Taylor, co-founder and second-generation familial brewer, has been honing his craft since learning to brew with his father at a young age. When Justin met Adam in college, they quickly bonded over their love of good beer and an emergent craft scene. As Justin and Adam's passion grew, they started brewing together in Justin's garage in Poughkeepsie, NY. For the next three years, Justin and Adam continued to work their day jobs while spending many late nights, early mornings, and entire weekends brewing, growing sales at farmers markets and local retail establishments, and fostering community loyalty and relationships. Fast-forward a decade, and Sloop has evolved from a passion shared between two friends into one of the fastest-growing regional craft breweries. Sloop Brewing Co. is named after the historic vessels that once cruised the Hudson River and is a proud contributor to the craft beer movement in upstate New York.
