Slate Town Brewing Co. at 31 Main St. in Granville opened three months ago and things are going well, according to business partner Susan Knapp.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have nine beers on tap. Every week we have new ones coming out,\u201d Knapp said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Local and out-of-town customers flock to Slate Town Brewing Company to get a taste of a Not Your Average Main Street Blonde ale, Unfitting Red ale, or other craft beers at the brewery created by master craftsman Glenn Wetherell, also a partner.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfitting Red ale came from slate industry terms in honor of the region\u2019s red slate industry having been a major benefactor in Granville\u2019s economic development, she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRed slate is only found in Granville in the whole world,\u201d Knapp said.<\/span><\/p>\n

After working nearly 16 years as a home brewer with his father David, working out of a hop shed, Wetherell decided to open a brewery after being convinced by Knapp that if he didn\u2019t, he would regret that decision forever.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are committed to the economy of a small little town and so I brought it up when property was available on Main Street,\u201d Knapp said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are getting people from all areas around us. We have a local following, we have tourists, and second-home owners. We get a lot from Vermont, and of course there is a large craft brewing community we are part of,\u201d Knapp said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Craft brewing has always been a steady business, according to Knapp, who pointed out that in Washington County alone there were five breweries including her own.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think it has become a part of the cultural landscape of not only large urban centers, but small towns too,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Slate Town Brewing Co.\u00a0 <\/span>has live music, Thirsty Thursdays, and they partner to be part other local events.\u00a0 <\/span>Knapp said events like the Granville Lighted Tractor Parade draws visitors to Main Street.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou can view the parade right from our tap room,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Knapp said customers can bring in pizza and other food, or the company has local menus of eateries along Main Street they can order from.<\/span><\/p>\n

Their next order of business is to install a working kitchen.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we have our kitchen we will serve pub grub, a lot from local sources, and it will be fantastic food,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the customer is not sure of a particular beer or ale, they can try a sample from the bartender before ordering a pint, order a flight of sampled beer, or purchase a 32-ounce growler filled with a choice of beer to bring home.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGlenn\u2019s beer is fantastic,\u201d Knapp said.<\/span><\/p>\n
