A cool full circle moment for us.
One of Uncle Waithley's very first production partners was Stony Creek Brewery in Branford, CT. Back then, we were making about 100 cases at a time, loading them up ourselves, and figuring it out as we went.
Fast forward a few years, and production runs now exceed 3,400 cases. We've outgrown our original facility, expanded our distribution, and our ginger beer is being enjoyed in places we could only dream about when we started.
Recently, co-founder Monica Freeman-Greene stopped by the brewery, now home to New England Brewing Company, one of Connecticut's most beloved craft breweries, and was pleased to see Uncle Waithley's being poured in their popular Rum Punch.
It's funny how the journey comes full circle sometimes. The places that help you get started can become the places that help tell your story.
The road is never straight, but every once in a while you get a reminder that you're headed in the right direction.
