Description
Owner Kyle Funk and his brother-in-law Jon Norman (Norm) are partners in Funk Brewing Co. which began brewing in 2014. Wether it’s Nirvana, Apple, or Funk, all great things start in a garage. Both Norm and Kyle started brewing in their garages with a turkey fryer and Igloo cooler. Later, Kyle’s and his mechanical engineering background built a magnificent brew house from scratch in his garage.

With Kyle’s brewing ability and Norm’s business background it made sense to start a brewery. The duo went to the Colorado Boy Brewing Company brewery school in Ridgway CO. After being laughed out of a few banks they were finally given a loan and the keys to 19 South 6th Street in Emmaus.

Since 2014, Funk has grown to 2 taprooms (Emmaus and Elizabethtown) and a distribution footprint of 7 states in the Mid Atlantic.

Draft at Bert's in Millersville. A pulp juice looking beer. Aroma is fresh pulpy citrus juice, light bitterness. Very perfume-y. Flavor is similar. Not bursting but pulpy. Light bitterness at the end, very fun.

Growler from Super BuyRite in Hamilton, NJ. Hazy yellow gold color topped by a foamy white head with spotty lacing. Fragrant citrus hop nose is redolent of tropical fruit and peach nectar. First sip yields bittersweet, juicy, fruity hop notes. Light pale malt backbone supports the onslaught of complex fruity hops. Some peppery bitterness in finish. A touch of vanilla and piney hops finish this IPA nicely.
