Our Story
Welcome to the Forty Second Brew Company Website. We are a local brewery out of Kingston, MA. Neighbors Paul Schiele and Matt Ward started brewing beer as a hobby, enjoying cold ones on long summer days, and winter nights around the firepit. After many neighborhood “sampling” sessions, they quickly realized they might be on to something bigger than just quenching their thirst.
In December of 2020 one of those “sampling” sessions by the firepit, unbeknownst to Matt and Paul, a collaboration began on ideas of a logo fitting of their creation. Steve Darby (2TF Marketing) and Nia Tieu (Tieu Media) jumped on board to support marketing and brand strategy to bring their tasty brews to life!
​
The team quickly designed a logo, media presence and incorporated. Recipe development and constant brewing continued with the hope of serving small local businesses and beer aficionados. Unfortunately, we ran into some hurdles when trying to obtain our licenses from the State and federal authorities obtaining our license September 2022. Since then, we've circulated 3 0f our flagship IPA's (Three Sheets to the Wind, Ship Faced & Shipwrecked), a Pilsner (Down the Hatch) and our Cage Titans Lightweight Lager. We learned a lot through self-distributing, home brewing and contract brewing that we decided to open our own brewery/taproom! 77 Summer St is our new home in an amazing community of neighbors! We’re determined to grow and provide quality craft beer to the local market. We hope you are as excited as we are! Hope to see you in the tap room, to enjoy a conversation and a cold beer. We appreciate your patronage. ~ Forty Second Brew Co.
