Paladin Brewing

Paladin Brewing’s mission is to establish a stronghold in the rapidly growing craft beer industry and building a successful brand by producing flavorful high-quality brews made with the purest ingredients to satisfy all our customers and stakeholders.
By definition, a Paladin is a class of Warrior that is fully devoted to kindness and ridding the Universe of Evil; a heroic champion. They are very religious and have an extremely strict honor code. Using this definition, Paladin Brewing will apply these same characteristics to the brewing industry.
The tasting room at Paladin Brewing will be the first line of attack to establish our stronghold by creating a tasteful medieval style atmosphere, that is not only memorable, but an experience in which you, our customer, will want to return and share with others. We intend to create high gravity, seasonal, and specialty beers appealing to the established craft beer market while also offering session beers which will encourage the sharing of our brand with even the mainstream beer drinkers by our craft followers.
