 The beer at Sackets Harbor Brewing Company is made fresh on the premises
from the traditional raw materials of beer making - barley malt, hops, water and
yeast. But the taste is not what you have come to expect from the "traditional"
commercial beers you have had in the past. Their brews are unique, and
cannot be found anywhere else in all the world! They do occasionally send a few
sample kegs to other brew pubs around the country, but to experience all that they
offer you'll simply have to visit Sackets Harbor.
The entire beer making process is done in the
brewing facility attached to their pub. They use their own recipes, developed by their
very own brewmeister right here in Sackets Harbor. Milled barley malt is
steeped in hot water to convert the starches into sugar. The sweet liquor is
then run off into a kettle and boiled with the hops. After the boil is complete
the concoction is cooled and sent to their stainless steel fermenters, where the
yeast is added. The yeast takes 7 to 10 days to complete the fermentation
process. During this time the beer is carbonated. They then filter the fresh
beer into tanks in a cold room directly below the bar, where it is chilled to
perfection. These tanks are directly connected to their bar room taps. By
serving their brews directly from these storage tanks they allow their customers to
experience the freshest possible beer.
And their food . . .
We know that a fine beer should be served with fine food, and so they have
made certain that everything from their soups and sandwiches to their sizzlers are
prepared to exquisit perfection. Many of their menu items feature their beer as an
ingredient, and all the chef's creations reflect their clever
personality and artistic flair. |
