Patriarchy by Troon Brewing

Patriarchy by Troon Brewing It feels like I have developed a new ritual. At least once a week, on the weekend, I fill a growler with something delicious from Troon Brewing in Hopewell, New Jersey, the United States of America.

Time for some random fun facts.

Troon is a town in South Ayrshire on the west coast of Scotland. Troon is the hometown of Scottish actress, Ronni Ancona. She played the mother of characters Katie and Emily Fitch in the third and fourth series of Skins, a British teen drama that follows the lives of a group of teenagers. Troon Brewing once offered an American Pale Ale called Take Off Your Skin And Dance In Your Bones.

Troon Brewing Grand Opening

Troon Brewing Co. does not sell any beer for on-site consumption and does not have a taproom. They sell beer to go in pre-filled, 32oz crowler cans.

Troon Brewing had been open for a while when they announced their Grand Opening in collaboration with Brick Farm Tavern. I'm not sure what the Grand Opening point was, but it was received with much enthusiasm. Brick Farm Tavern guests had brunch at the Tavern while sampling Troon's fine ales and porter. Troon Brewing's brewer, Alex, provided tours of the brewery while filling growlers of his excellent ales. I spoke to one gentleman who had travelled up from Atlantic City, but most visitors were locals from Somerset, Mercer, Hunterdon, and Middlesex counties. Bhavana and I filled two growlers; one with an American Pale Wheat Ale entitled Dog-Earned Novel and the other Take Off Your Skin And Dance In Your Bones.

I am not certain, but I think the man in the photo below is Alex's Dad, but I believe it is. Or maybe he's the owner of the Brick Farm Tavern. I don't know the name of the woman he's talking to, but she may be someone close to the family.
