Southern Tier Brewing Company

Based in Lakewood, New York, Southern Tier Brewing Company was founded in 2002 by Phineas DeMink and Allen “Skip” Yahn, who had the vision of reviving the practice of small batch brewing in a region rich in brewing tradition. Southern Tier immediately garnered regional attention, and demand for the product quickly grew well beyond New York state. Which is why we can bring it to you here in Michigan!
