Brewing Buddies Establishing New Brewery In Aberdeen

In fact, Fino created a 300-square-foot brewery in his home in order to hone his skills beforehand. It's a fully electric system that mirrors pilot systems many small breweries use. The members also are members of a local homebrew club, the Brewers Association of Maryland, The National Brewers Association and the MD Homebrew Guild.

"The community's been wanting something to anchor this side of the park for a while," Fino told WMAR . "The city wants to rehab some buildings down here and bring in new businesses and bring new life to downtown Aberdeen."

The brewers intend to convert the 3,000-square-foot space into their brewery complete with outdoor seating and a rooftop deck. The friends have been funding their start-up business with personal funds and loans, but anyone wanting to help support their endeavor can turn to an Indiegogo crowdsourcing campaign they've launched.
