Ross & Mary Hudspeth are the owners of Renton’s very first brewery and they joined us on-air today. Four Generals Brewing is opening it’s doors in June in the heart of old downtown at 229 Wells Ave S. in the original city hall location.
They will be serving your typical northwest styles with an emphasis on well balanced beers instead of over the top IPAs and such. They have an ipa but the main focus will be on other styles such as Scottish red, cda and pale ale. And of course, will do seasonal rotators as time allows. They’re also planning on starting a sours and Goza program in the near future.
The brewery is a small electric 3bbl system with 4x 10bbl fermenters/brite uni tanks. The atmosphere will be warm and cozy with lots of exposed original brick and 1924 era old growth rafters. The bar and tables are all live edge wood; cedar for the tables and maple/elm for the bar and rails. They will also have a small outside covered patio in front.
