Currently, they offer a few picnic tables for anyone who would like to enjoy a beer outside of the facility. The brewery will also eventually introduce its own outdoor beer garden. Their expansion does not stop at the kitchen. Modestine did inform us that as a part of their expansion they will also be adding an onsite kitchen to expand the food offerings available to customers. As of right now, Co-Hops offers a small food menu paired with the large variety of craft beer available. The Co-Hops taproom is set in a large, spacious industrial themed settingĪnd because Co-Hops is manufacturing all beer onsite, guests can enjoy anything produced at the brewery in either cans or on draft.

Inside of the brewery’s 10,000 plus square foot facility, sits a 100 person capacity taproom with eight draft lines to enjoy from. What should also be noted is that Co-Hops is not strictly a packaging facility, but offers a taproom for guests to enjoy a craft beer much like any other brewery experience. Currently, they are working with established breweries such as Moss Mill, Bucks County, Steel City, Floating Feathers, Blueprint, and many others with the intention to add even more. With their own canning line onsite, they are able to work with breweries that may not have canning capabilities of their own to package and distribute their beer to local bottle shops and distributors. As mentioned above, a part of the contracting services the brewing location offers is kegging and canning other breweries’ products. They are also actively working with well-established brands to help produce their beer. Helping new brands get off their feet is not the only goal of Co-Hops services. There is no telling how many breweries in PA Co-Hops will end up launching. All of the breweries above have the ability to produce their beer for the public on a commercial scale while they continue to work towards building their own brewing operations. The aforementioned are all breweries you may not be familiar with, but they are all working with Co-Hops in an effort to have their beer canned, kegged, and distributed. The current Co-Hops brewing and canning operation Modestine confirmed they are working with a variety of different up-and-coming breweries including Jim Thorpe Brewing, Drips Burger House, LoSo Brewing, Sutton Brewing, and Radiant Beer Project to name a few. This is the case with many of the brands that Co-Hops is supporting. But you do not have a brewing system large enough to support a commercial operation. For example, you may be a homebrewer looking to go professional. One of which involves helping new or smaller breweries get off the ground. In Co-Hops case, there are a variety of reasons they are offering their contracting services. Or maybe they have been producing so much beer that they have no room in their tanks for more.
They may not have a large enough brewing system of their own to yield the amount of liquid they would like for a beer. There could be many reasons why a brewery may utilize the services of a contract brewing operation. Meaning almost all of the liquid produced from this location is meant for other breweries to sell and distribute.įor those not familiar, contract brewing is a process where the host brewery is manufacturing the beer on behalf of another brewing company. As Modestine said to us “ roughly 95% of our production is for contract purposes“.
Unlike traditional brewing operations, Co-Hops did not open with the intention to produce their own product.
