Description
A long and winding road has led our brewery through many trials and tribulations. This path has included everything from wildfires to a global pandemic. A path that began as sole proprietorship has turned into a partnership. As struggle can create strength, uncertainty can lead to change. Vince Ferracuti and Kevin Robinson have partnered to create Iron Ox Brewing Company. The new name is a representation of that partnership. Vince is the Iron and Kevin is the Ox. Plow Brewing Company is not gone. Rather, it has undergone a metamorphosis into a stronger form. We are very excited about our future and look forward to sharing a beer with you. Come Get Some!!!
