LYNN, Mass. – Bent Water Brewing Company will soon be available in the state of Ohio. While the brewery has expanded significantly over the past year, adding several states to its distribution footprint, the expansion to Ohio holds special significance for the brewery.
“I’m from a “Friday Night Lights” type of town in Ohio,” explained Aaron Reames, Co-founder and President of Bent Water Brewing. “In a sense, though we opened in Massachusetts, the brewery was really born in Ohio. That’s where I fell in love with science as a kid working in my dad’s lab, as well as the labs of The Ohio State University. Later, that fascination with science led me toward homebrewing. My love for beer really grew out of an interest in understanding how yeast metabolizes and how ingredients are scientifically manipulated to ultimately make beer.”
